Greaser/Soc AU
Percy Jackson is a Greaser: a kid that grew up on the wrong side of town, with the wrong parents and the wrong friends. There's nothing he hates more than the Socs, the kids who grew up on the right side of town with their rich parents and fancy clothes who seemingly have never faced consequences in their lives. However, this classist divide is the least of his problems.
With his parents dead and the terrifying idea of staying in that small town forever looming over him, he sets a strict set of rules on himself that, naturally, his friends try to break.
Eventually, he meets a Soc boy, Nico di Angelo, who he notices has no luck with girls, and he graciously offers him help. After spending time with Nico, Percy learns that the two aren't so different, despite living starkly different lives. However, he soon discovers that Nico is harboring a great secret-one that challenges both of their perceptions of the world.
Together, through the highly-instilled values of their society and the roles in said society that they can never truly escape, they face a greater challenge than any they had before: falling in love.|

Percy had changed. He lost himself years ago. He was on his own now, and he wasn't sure anyone or anything could help him.
But what if he was wrong?
Nico knew he was alone. His father left, and his mother and sister were both dead and gone. He knew there could be someone to break him, but the real question: Who?
