The Deep End

Chapter 8: Part 2

Nico
In the car the music played quietly of some generic song and Percy was humming quietly. "Percy?" Percy looked over to the shorter boy, "You said you couldn't sing right?" "Nico if your about to ask me what I think you are no, heck no," Nico sighed and frowned and looked out the window. "Take a left," Nico spoke. "Percy can you please?" Nico moaned with a puppy dog face. Nico didn't realize it's effect on Percy when he groaned, "Alright, here I'll rap how's that," "Not the same," "Fine,"
It's you babe
And I'm a sucker for the way that you move babe
And I could try to run but it would be useless you're to blame
Just wa---
"Yeah I've heard enough you've proved your point you are bad," Nico jokes. He didn't mean to be rude actually Nico thought he had a beautiful voice. Like Nick Jonas would be jealous, no pun intended. Nico started into the bright street light. This was like heaven to him. He rolled down the window and stuck his hand out side feeling the cold air tickled at him palm. "Where to next?" Nico snapped his dream filled head and looked over to Percy. "Oh straight on," Percy smiled and started forward and, "Percy look out!" CRASH!
...Everything went black....
When Nico opened his eyes again here he was on a pier he looked over to see Percy holding a cup of iced coffee and Nico's hand in the other, "I'd think we'd be a really good couple." Those words were Percy's. "What. Really?" Nico was exacerbated. Percy smiled then dropped his hand and his face shifted to a face, "No of course not." Nicos stomach dropped. "Wait, b-" Percy viciously laughed, "You really think I would like you," Percy yelled, "What a fag like you, you wouldn't be serious now huh? Oh my gods you thought I liked you," Percy started barking with laughter, "I would never like you Nico di Angelo, maybe you're too dumb to realize." Percy then shoved Nico's shoulder causing him to stumble, and fell backwards into the lake below them, SPLASH!
....Everything went black.....
Nico snapped open his eyes again he was walking into his house, "Hello! I'm home," he was telling to know one. He walked into the kitchen, throwing his bag to the side, he picked up a sticky note on the counter.
We left
What? He looked up to see no furniture, when he turned his head the room turned black. He was trapped in a black box. One of the walls lit up to see his sister's Hazel and Bianca, "Bianca you have to help me!" The girls just smiled he banged on the wall that separated them, "I never wanted a brother anyway," Hazel nodded to Bianca's words, "I mean he let me die." Nico panicked, "Bianca I didn't mean to!" But she just shook her head. Next to her was a switch she glanced at it and smiled, "Byeeee Nico." The girls whispered simultaneously. Nico was banging the invisible wall, "No, no, NO!" The girls went black.
The wall next to him showed his friend Will. "Oh, Will am I glad to see you," Will had a disgusted look on his face, "I can't say the same." Nico smile dropped, "What no we're we are best friends!" Will look intensified. "Why would I be friends with a queer. He could hit on me it's disgusting." Will looked over to see another switch, "No! Will please!" "Later Gaylord." and he went black.
The next panel showed his mom, "Mom you gotta help me!" Nico pleaded. Mrs. di Angelo laughed, "but you didn't help me," Nico started crying and dropped to his knees, "Mommy," he whispered. "I would never be your mother." And she went black. He was too busy sobbing on the floor to notice the next one. "Nico? Nico are you there?"The obsidian eyed boy wiped the tears from his cheeks and looked over. Percy. Percy was here to save him. "Oh my gods am I so happy to see you!" Nico blurted putting his hands too the wall. "I'm happy to see you too. About the other day, I wanted to say no to your offer." The boy was confused, "What offer?" "You wanted to go out with me, I'm saying I don't want to." Nico was even more confused. "Do you know why?" Percy questioned. When Nico shook his head he smirked, "Cause your useless, you can't do anything," No not him too, Nico dropped to the floor, bawling his eyes out, "look at you, you're so annoying with that moaning of yours, you're disgusting! I hate looking at you!" Nico cried and cried, Percy was still yelling insults. He pounded at the glass startling Nico. Stop! Stop, stop, stop! He shrieked. He fell onto his side, closing his eyes.
