The wardrobe change followed next.
Maybe it was the newfound confidence that the tattoos brought (Sally couldn't stay mad at Percy for too long). The way the ink molded his skin. The way it made his muscles pop out and skin tone blend in.
The way his looks went from 100 to 1,000 in no more than a single weekend.
The way girls would follow him around even more now. Cling onto the boy as if he were oxygen and they couldn't breathe.
'But of course they would,' Nico thought bitterly. 'He's Percy fucking Jackson.'
Whether either of them would like to admit it or not, Percy was basically the school's idol with a mob of paparazzi following him around.
No small thing could go unnoticed. So of course, when his wardrobe drastically shifts gears, it becomes the talk of the highschool.

Percy walked beside Nico as they arrived at their school's front doors.
He wore a pair of dark ripped jeans and a well-fitted white shirt. A light gray jacket zipped half way, with its sleeves rolled back around his elbows to reveal wisps of his recent tattoos.
His hair had a single white-gray streak and a black beanie to set the look.
Sure, it was a simple look. Casual as though he didn't care, but the tall teen could surely pull it off.
Nico should have seen in coming. The hordes of teenage hormones crashed around the duo in waves.
Many different girls clung onto him and many boys glared at the popular teenager. Somewhere along the lines, Nico was pushed out of the way, falling on the ground, and no where near Percy.
He rolled his eyes and let out a small huff before picking himself back up and heading to class.
Percy may be his best friend (and crush), but he basically belonged to the whole school.
The Italian had come to terms with that a long time ago but that didn't mean it didn't still hurt.
