Ask the Demigods

Question 3

A/N~Shoutout to my book bff pokemon222999 for submitting this Q&A question! She's writing a series called The Ice Dragon, go check it out!

Warning: This Q&A might get you in your feels :( I'm just kidding I suck at writing these-

Question: Who was Nico's first crush?

Nico's face turns red. Tomato red.

Piper: Oooooh! Spill the tea, Nico, spill the tea!

Piper sips at her cup of coffee like it's tea.

Nico: I-

Percy: Was it me? I bet it was me.

Nico: No, I-

Annabeth: Was it a boy?

Nico: I- yes...

Will awkwardly fumbles with his stephoscope.

Will: You know, Nico, you don't HAVE to answer the question. I mean-

Nico: You know what? Maybe I WILL tell the story.

Will:

Nico: I was in the Lotus Hotel for a long time. It was all a blur, but I do remember one very specific person. Lucas Goldwin.

Nico: Lucas had dark blonde hair and dimples. He was shy and quiet, like me. I never acknowledged my feelings to him, but I'm pretty sure he liked me too.

Nico: The last time I saw him was the day before I left the Lotus Hotel. We were talking in the lobby, and I remember me trying to confess my feelings for him, but I decided to wait until tomorrow. I never saw him again.

Everyone: ...

Nico: So? Are you happy now?

He brushes away a tear that's threatening to roll down his face.

Piper puts down her cup.

Piper: I'm really sorry Nico...

Piper gives Nico a big hug.

Will joins in the hug too.

Pretty soon, everyone is wrapped around Nico, trying to comfort him.

Nico smiles a watery smile.

Later...

Will runs up to Nico, panting for breath.

Will: Nico! Nico!

Nico: Will? What is it?

Will: I just- I've been thinking about what you said about Lucas. And- I know I shouldn't be worried, but... just in case...

Will: ...do you still have feelings for Lucas?

Nico: Will, of course not. He was my first crush. I've long moved on from him. I love YOU now, and that's all that matters.

Will and Nico hug each other tightly, Nico standing on his tiptoes.

Authors note~
