"Man, I don't know what to do. I tried the 'throwing pebbles at window' thing and I serenaded him with T-swizzle!" Jason whines to his best friend. Percy laughs and his girlfriend, Annabeth, shakes her head.

"Damit, Jason, I told you to do the boombox!" She scolds him, whacking him slightly on the shoulder.

"I did." He says quietly, hoping her or Percy won't ask any questions. Annabeth sensed his discomfort and gave him an understanding nod. Percy, being the oblivious idiot he is, paid no such attention.

"Results?"

"He flipped me off and yelled lots of no-no words that began with 'F'." He sighs, hanging his head to hide an obvious blush. Nico, the boy whom Jason was trying to win, defiantly wasn't liking Jason's antics. He found them annoying and cliché. So, the three teens sat in a comfortable silence in Jason's room.

Annabeth practically screamed, "That's it! I've got it!"

"If I have to dance naked one more time-"

"No, you big baby! Besides- I saw Nico watching! You just have to pull a Taylor Swift!" She squeals happily.

"Go from country to pop? You know honestly, it was her choice and whatever she chooses I fully support." Percy inputs. This was a conversation Jason and Percy discussed almost daily.

"I get that." Jason agrees.

"Totally," Says Annabeth, "but that's not the point! You have to do what they did in her video, You belong with me."

"That's....that's actually genius. Let's do it!" Percy laughs. They ignore all of Jason's arguing and refusal.

"Stop whining! Remember you're doing this for dick and you love dick." Annabeth veto's.

"I hate all of you."

"What if he hates me? What if he thinks I'm a creep? What of he calls the cops? I won't last in jail, man! I'll have a butt buddy within the hour! I do not want a butt buddy!" Frets Jason, staring at the back of Nico.

"Oh my gods! One, he can't call the cops and two, you're not cute enough to get a butt buddy right away. You'd be a third choice at most." Percy sneers.

"Bullshit, they always run the new guy!" Jason retorts in the best 'duh' and 'bitch please' tone ever heard.

"Jason is right, Percy. They rush the new guy." Annabeth argues.

"Details, details. Let's get going and woo this Italian!" Cheers Percy, handing Jason a poster board that says, "You belong with me." Jason snatches it out of his hands. He stares at Nico's back, tracing his features with his mind. The slim, yet sturdy frame and dark as night hair that Jason could stare at for hours on end. Though his face was the other way, Jason knew exactly what it looked like. Pale, porcelain skin and chocolate eyes filled with a sad mystery. Jason wanted to be the one to solve that mystery. And his thin lips with a small over bite and how his top lip was just slightly fuller than the last one. His sly smile every time he gave Jason the finger. Its adorable, Jason thought, how he thinks he's sooo punk with all of his dark clothes when really, he was a kitten.

Mustering all of his courage (and ignoring Percy's relentless teasing), Jason opened his window and threw a small rock to get Nico's attention. It hit spot on,but it wasn't loud enough. So he threw another, and another, another, all the way up until twelve. The thirteenth finally caused the raven haired boy to turn around. He rolls his eyes at the sight of Jason but turns bright red when he reads the note. Jason smiles. Nico disappears for a second and Jason worries what he did wrong. He told them it was a stupid idea.

He did wish that Nico was ignoring him when the pale boh showed up with a white board that says 'Fuck off' He looks so smug and happy and more kitty lie than ever, so Jason just can't stay mad at him. He takes a deep breathe and swallows his pride while picking up the next poster board. He decides to skip the whole song and just skip to the end. He took a very shaky breathe and flashed the poster.

Nico's eyes widened and he could feel himself turn red as a tomato. Could the blonde superman, who he thought was always messing with him, be actually asking him out. He erased his answer and wrote the new one.

Jason smiled more than he thought humanly possible. His Nico, the boy he had a crush on since ten, was agreeing to go out on a date with him. He nodded his head happily and Nico smiled and shook his head, mumbling something. Jason was no expert lip reader, but he was absolutely positive he saw the words, 'I love that dork' cross his lips before the curtains closed.

Jason wanted to sit there all day and bask in his glory, but he couldn't. He had a date to get ready for.
