His Other Half | Solangelo Fanfiction

Chapter 3

"You promise you'll be on your best behaviour?"
Nico rolled his eyes as his dad looked at him through the rear view mirror. Nico grabbed his bag and slung it over his shoulder, the strap was across his body.

"I promise that I'll try!" Nico managed to smile at his dad as he shuffled closer to the left, opening the car door.
"What does that mean-?" Hades began, turning his head to look at Nico.
"If someone is a dick towards me again, I won't hesitate to punch them!" Nico exclaimed, instantly leaving the car.

"Nico-!" Hades attempted to scowl at his son.
Nico slammed the car door shut and he smiled at his dad through the window. His dad glared at him and Nico went ahead and walked forward towards the front of the school.
Nico knew his dad was definitely grumbling something under his breath before driving off to work.

Nico held his bag strap and he took a deep breath as he looked up at the structure of the school. It seemed quite big, there wasn't a lot of people around, but there was a few people who wore colourful clothing.

Nico himself wore a t-shirt from a band that he liked with an aviators jacket on top with a gay pin on his jacket. He also wore black ripped jeans along with some black boots that let him appear a little taller than he actually was.

Nico took another deep breath and he went ahead to go to the entrance of the school. Nico walked in and he went to the front office first to get his schedule. He did stutter a little, but he managed to get his schedule with no problems.

Nico looked at his schedule as he made it out from the front office and to the normal hallway of the school. Nico saw a lot more people inside, they were by their lockers or walking about. Nico was a little worried that people would be staring at him since he was new, but... everyone was just minding their own business. So, that was a relief.

Nico looked back at his schedule and the first class he had for the day.
... Great, he had English first!
Nico sighed as he looked at the room number and he began to walk through the halls to find his English class while he looked at the rest of his subjects for the day.
"Italian, well that'll be easy to get through..." Nico began to mumble to himself as he walked and looked at his classes. "Maths? Eugh... Chemistry... History-"

Nico stumbled back as someone knocked into him, running right into him from in front.
"Ah! Crap!"
Nico nearly fell backwards but someone's arm wrapped around him and prevented him from falling. Nico felt strange, he never liked strangers touching him. Nico blinked and he looked up at the person who bumped into him.
"I am so, so sorry-!"
Nico met the gaze of the boy who bumped into him and who caught him from falling.

Nico felt strange as he looked into this boy's eyes. They were a beautiful blue colour, reminding Nico of sapphires as he stared into them. They sparkled brightly, and they seemed filled with many positive emotions, clearly this boy was the opposite of Nico and Nico could just tell that from this boy's eyes.

Nico glanced at this male's other features. His skin was slightly tanned, his face was covered with freckles, specifically his cheeks and nose. Nico wondered where else this male had freckles. His hair was curly and sun-kissed, he look as though he came right from the beach.

Nico slightly shook his head, snapping out of his daydream and it felt like time had returned back to normal once Nico got out of that strange headspace.
"Uhm, no, I'm sorry, I wasn't paying attention to my surroundings." Nico said, looking at the male and standing up properly.

This boy still had his arm wrapped around Nico, which brought Nico close to this male, closer than Nico really wanted to be.
"No, no, it was completely my fault! I was rushing to do something and... I'm sorry, I should've paid more attention." The boy said.
Nico looked at the boy and he kept looking at Nico, still taking in his appearance.
