WILL'S POV

I love gym class. I mean, I was never super at it, but I always had fun. And seeing all the guy get dressed was never a bad thing. I mean, no one was ever naked so it's not like I saw anything. Doesn't mean it wasn't worth it.
And another good thing is that Nico's in my gym class. And that boy is fine. You say what you want but he's attractive.
He stood in a corner of the locker room and faced the wall before talking off his shirt. I tried not to make it obvious I was staring, keeping in mind what Annie said. I didn't need to get beat up.
He slipped on a really big shirt that went past his waist before removing his pants and quickly putting on basketball shorts. He slid his sneakers on and walked out the door.
"What ya looking at newbie?" A voice asked. I liked up to find a blonde that looked very similar to Jason. He even had a scar, but it was on his eye and he was taller and more muscular.
"Nothing." I answered, looking down and tying my shoe.
"Really huh? It looked like you were check out Di Angelo. You think he's cute?" He sneered at me. I didn't like him.
"What's your name?" I stood to my full height, though he was still taller then me. His eyebrows rose.
"Luke. Luke Castilian. What's it to you?" Luke blinked
"I want you to leave me alone Luke. I don't like bullies and I'm not afraid to do something about it if you don't leave me alone. Save yourself the trouble." I liked him in the eyes and walked out of the locker room.

The coach is a little weird. He has a hairy bears and hairy l he was hat you can see under his shorts that he wears. He wears a baseball cap and carries around a bat with him and it looks like he'll hit you if yin u don't shut up and play the game. He goes by Hedge. Coach Hedge. And it you call him anything else, he will hit you I'm sure of it.
After an intense stretching and warmup, he let up goff around. A bunch of guys grabbed basketballs and a few of the girls grabbed a volleyball. Nico walked over and joined them. I followed.
They created a circle on one half of the gym. I knew a couple of them from earlier classes. There was Piper, and Clarrisse, and Selina, and Katie, who I am knew were nice.
"Can I join in?" I asked' stepping into the circle.
"Sure." Piper answered. "Do you know how to play?"
"I know some." I answered and the ball was thrown in the air. Every one around me moved. Nico stepped back and called "Mine!" And he bumped it up.
I went on like this for awhile, and I never touched the ball. It hit the ground a few times so I didn't feel too nervous, but butterflies still swarmed my stomach.
When he ball finally came me I had a clear shot. I knew I had a clear shot. I bent my knees and put my hands together and swung. But I missed the ball. It bounced into the floor and I groaned.
"It's okay Will." Katie assured me as she picked it up and started a new volley.
Piper glanced at me and mouthed. "You're doing fine." I smiled weakly and looked back at the ball.
Nico was amazing. He hit it perfectly every time he could and never missed it. I was watched his beautiful hands smack the ball into the air upwards. I saw Piper yelling at me out of the corner of my he and realized I he ball was coming towards me. I put m hands just like Nico's and set the ball into the air perfectly.
And then the bell rang.

I took my time in the locker room. I didn't have any where go after school and I could walk home so there wasn't a need to rush. The room slowly cleared and I left. Outside waiting for me was Luke. I scowled.
"Good job at volleyball," he started and I nodded. "Look, I know you think I'm a bully hut I'm not. I just don't want you messing with the guy. He's had enough problems."
"Nico?" I asked. "Why do you care?"
" I'm dating Jason's older sister, and Nico and Jason are brow or something, so Thalia really cares for him. We're not the best of pals but I know he doesn't need any more hell I. His life right now. So, be nice to him, okay?" Luke looked genuinely concerned for Nico and I nodded.
"Alright. I just think that's he's really attractive." I say. Oops. That was t supposed to happen.
Luke just smiles. "I figured. The oh we're totally checking him out." I start my protest but he butts in. "I gotta go. See you later Will."
I let it drop. "See ya Luke." Well that's one person who doesn't care about my sexuality.

Quick question.
Is Lou Ellen one of Uncle Rick's characters, or does she belong to someone else. Just checking. Thanks guys.
