New Roman High
Nico
"Damn I hate you" I whisper under my breathe at Hazel my younger but more responsible sister. She had connived me to attend school with her in California after almost all "our" friends had wanted to move here to escape the cold of New York winter. I didn't mind it but I still didn't want to go. She, Frank Zhang, Percy Jackson, Annabeth Chase, Leo Valdez, Piper Mclean, Jason Grace, Will Solace, Drew Tanaka, The Stoll Twins, Clarisse La Rue and Racheal Dare all came to this new high school while kids from there go to ours for a bit.
I decide finally to go because Will had connived me that the sun was good for me, in more ways than one. So while I will only be there half a day mostly I still have to be dragged out of bed and into the shower to go to school.
We as a group decide to get apartments in the same complex if anything had happened so: I lived Hazel, Leo and Frank were forced together because under no circumstance that Frank and hazel were going to be together. I didn't care how nice he was he is three years older than her. Then Percy with Annabeth, and Jason with Piper. All the rest decide to go one building over which isn't important now.
I get in the shower, wash off, then coming out in: gray shirt dark gray jeans black converse and black beanie. This was some of the lightest color I have ever worn in my life. It is California after all.
"Wow looking good" Hazel says as she getting breakfast. I see her wearing a white bottoms up blouse and a red skirt with tan sandals.
"Yea… well t-thanks." I liked that Hazel was nice to me but it was kind of hard when you mostly felt that you were alone and every one hated you.
"So you ready for today?"
"No why would I be?"
"Because there will be hot Cali boys here"
"Yes" I say sarcastic. "I am going to school to look at boys that will think I want to kill them." Everyone knew that I was homo which didn't bother me but at the same time Will out of all people showed a little more interest in me. This at the same time made me notice him more.
"Well it wouldn't hurt would it?"
"Yes very much actually"
"Oh Nico."
After eating Frank came to pick up Hazel that left me driving my motorcycle. Out of everyone I am the only one who decides to get one. Percy and Annabeth shared a bluish gray jeep. Jason and Piper got a Toyota Corolla in light blue. Leo even got a car, a bright red truck that he tinkers with every day, Frank and hazel however always caught a ride with Leo though.
I hop on my back and right before I rode off a tan hand gripped my shoulder.
It was Will.
"Dude I am so glad I caught you my car broke down and I need a ride. Can I have one?"
"Sure. I guess." I handed him a helmet that was black with a sun on the back (it was for Hazel). He took, put it over his blonde hair which shone in the California sunlight and hop on the back.
"Umm do I just…." He trailed off. I laid his hands around my waist. I was really glad that I was facing forward or he would have saw my faced turn red as Leo Truck. I guess he was red to but grip me tighter. I start the cycle and off we went.
It took about ten mins to get to the school but I decide to take it slow since this Will's first time. I overheard him going whoa and wow as I picked up speed. I smirked at his enjoyment of it. We got there just as Piper and Jason drove in with some breakfast. Leo was over by the soccer field laughing with some girls that looked semi-interested. However I didn't see Percy Annabeth Hazel or Frank anywhere.
I stopped the bike and kicked out the stand. I took my helmet off and shook my hair before putting my beanie back on. When I got off I saw Will raking his hand through his hair. Some girls that were passing by giggled and waved. He waved back of course. Then looked at me and shrug.
Will
I was still hyped from my ride with Nico. It was the best thing ever and holding Nico wasn't too bad either. When I got off my hair was still stocked with water that I hadn't full dried out yet. When I took off my helmet I saw a couple of girls' wave so naturally I waved back. I saw Nico staring and shrug like it was no big deal.
"That was so much fun!" I said as we walked into the building with Jason and piper falling in right next to us.
"You rode on Nico bike huh? Isn't amazing." Jason said as he eats a burrito I thought.
"Yea what were we doing 60, 70?"
"30 maybe 35." Nico answered simply
"Really" I must have looked shock because when he looked at me he said" Yea I didn't want to scare you." Jason laugh as Piper warned him that he would choke.
"What you think I couldn't take it?"
"No I just didn't want you to get to excited." He said with another shrug
"Then during lunch your giving another ride." He told him
"No."
"Why?" I got a little mad
"Cause." And before I can go farther the bell rang and Nico walked away. Now I had to wait for lunch.
Nico
I Hate Will Solace. I give him a ride to school and then he wants another, but am not mad that he wants one. Am mad because then I have to be going 70 miles an hour with some hot guy on my bike hold tight on my waist making me blush at every time he squeeze tighter. Now i am not one for saying I like someone or saying that they don't get on my nerves, but Will, Will out of all people makes me feel good.
When we were on the plane here he decides to sit next to me and by the end I had laugh a bit and only frowned once. That was when he asked me if he looked hot but said jk before I had time to respond. He even decides to help me unpack. Out all of the people that I could have feeling for it was him.
When the bell ran I try to avoid the Cafeteria but was pulled by Percy who found me and wanting to have lunch with me before I leave for the day. When I got lunch; which was actually more like restaurant food than school; I sat down with Percy Annabeth and Jason and started eating. But before I could really start eating I hear Will calling my name from the other side of the cafeteria. I got up with a death glare and walked over to Will which had a plastered grin on his face.
"What is it Solace?"
"Ready to leave yet?"
"What do you mean?"
"I mean are you ready to take me on your bike for another ride?"
"No after Lunch I am going home."
"Okay then take me with you."
"Don't you still have class?" I questioned crossing my arms over my chest. This conversation was getting really annoying.
"Yea but I can always make up work. You said you'll take me so am ready."
"You won't stop till you get on my bike will you?"
"No I won't so you better give in now."
I looked at him then back at the gang who was most likely staring the whole time seeing who would win. I almost hung my head in deafer but, just gestured to will to follow me to the front of the school. He jumped right on my bike and put on the helmet. I did the same then start the engine. We pulled out of the parking lot and hit the highway. Because it was near the end of lunch the road was mostly clear beside a few stray cars here and there. I picked up speed to about fifty which got a tight squeeze from will as he leaned closer to me. I went faster, wanting him to hold me tighter. We went for about 45 mins until I came in front of a McDonalds. I got off my bike and flipped my hair to the side before putting my beanie back on my hair that was a little sweaty. Will stared at me as I did this which I didn't mind till we just stood there looking at each other. I looked away after I felt his glaze linger away from my face.
"So want something to eat?" He asked "because you didn't finish at lunch."
"Sure, is a happy meal okay?"
"Yea I'll get to brb."
"I'll get us a table." I walked to one of the outdoor tables, sat down a pulled out my phone. I looked that I had three messages from Percy. I read them
So where r u and Will? 12:25

Jason just told me that u were giving Will a bike ride. That cool. What r u doin now? 1:00
It was now 1:10 so I sent a text back to Percy
Hey me and Will r good, don't worry.

McDonald
Happy meals?
Yea
Have fun ;)
Before I could have asked what he meant Will came out with happy meals. He handed me one and sat down.
"So why do you like happy meals, I mean you're what 16 now?"
"I use to get Mythomagic cards from them, also they really good."
"Cool I never would have pegged you card playing geek." He popped in too chicken nuggets
"What do you mean geek? You're the one who studying to be a medic 24/7"
"Hahaha that funny."
"Whatever". We sat there for about an hour before we decide we need to go home. We took the highway again. By the time we got into the complex I felt sad that our adventure was over.
Will
I hopped of the bike like I have been doing it all my life. I felt so happy that Nico gave in and took me for a ride. The speed we were going was crazy and… well holding him in my arms in a way wasn't too bad either. I was glad we got time to just hang out, just the two of us. I put the helmet on his bike.
"Thanks."
"For what?" he looked at me weird
"For the ride this morning and for Lunch."
"You paid for that." He gave me another curious look.
"Yea well for having it with me." I blush at the thought of it being a like a date.
"Sure, anytime I guess." He started walking off. That when I grabbed on to his arm and kissed him. Yes you heard that right I kissed Nico. I held his face in my hand closing my eyes and kissed him. His ridge body melted in my hands as he wrapped his arms around my waist. I step back forgetting his bike was there. He then led me to sit on it and pulled me closer to him. We kissed for about a min till a honk woke us from the dream like state.
Nico let go and stepped back kicking the kick stand making the bike fall. The bike I was on, so I fell and land on my back and butt.
"Hello boys!" Drew Tanaka called from her pink mustang. I got up really quick rubbing my back. Drew and I was the only boy and girl duo living together that hated each other." Looks like you guys were having fun? Am I right" she rose her eyebrow up in a knowing look. "Well she you later." She drove off.
Nico looked at me red to the face and walked off before I could say anything.
Man I hate myself.
