Chapter 1: The meeting :)
Hey guy's I would like to thank everyone that reviewed my song-fic "I am not alone". I greatly appreciated the love. I will be writing more song-fic's for just about every ship possible because I have ton's of ideas . Any way this is a multi-chapter Pernico AU highschool fic. Where Nico is an amazing cello player that not many people try to be friend except for my OC Kayla and, his half –sister Hazel and, a few others. But unbenounced to him he has managed to catch the eye of the schools star swimmer, Percy, which, just so happens to be nico's crush. So what will happen when Percy walks in on Nico Practicing his cello? Will they ever find out that they have feelings for each other? All questions will be answered…. Eventualy. ;)
Warnings: (Boy x Boy), (Girl x Girl) Relationships
Pairings: Percy Jackson/ Nico Diangelo, Annabeth Chasse/ Reyna Arellano, Jason Grace/ Piper Mclean, Hazel Levesque/ Frank Zhang, Leo Valdez/ Kayla Wiliams (OC)
Nico POV :
'That was supposed to be a triplet. '
'That was supposed to be an A flat not an A natural'
'I have to play it more legato this way it sounds smoother.'
Currently I am trying to prepare my part of a cello duet for the orchestras' big end of the year concert. It is in two weeks and, we just picked the music out today but, we had to do some sort of ensemble for chamber orchestra tryout's. Chamber orchestra is the best orchestra in the school, they play the hardest music, get to play at payed gig's and, it mainly consisted of all seniors which makes it hard to get in as a freshman. It also looked good on college applications and, I know I am only a freshman and have a couple years until I have to really start worrying about college but I always try to plan ahead.
Damn, where is Kayla at she said that we were going to practice the duet after school and, school ended twenty minutes ago! Plus it is really getting creepy being in the west wing of the auditorium ( that doubles as a practice room) all by myself. 'Well maybe if I play some more it won't seem so eirie in here'
Playing my cello aways makes me feel better. I remember when my sister died, I did cry for about a day but, the rest of my grieving consisted of my playing mt cello and letting my emotions out through song. Looking at the worn fingerboard on my instrument reminds me of the months when I would come home from school go to my room, do what homework I had been assinged, then play my cello for about four hours not counting breaks to eat or shower until I colapsed in my bed, mentally and physically exausted. The weekends I would mainly be in my room the whole day playing my cello. In those four month's I had compossed a cello solo, memorized The Six Cello Suite's by Bach and, played a moltitude of other pieces of music, my skill set improving the more I played. After those months it was easier for me to cope without having to constantly play cello and, to start hanging out with my friends (the ones I have). But playing my cello is very comforting to me and it probably will always be something that I turn to for comfort.
I was half way through the song when I heard the door click and creak open. I didn't bother stopping because I thought it was Kayla finally showing her sorry face around here. But the key word in that sentence is thought. That is why I was shocked when instead of looking into the grayish blue eyes of my best friend, I was starring into the mesmerizing sea-green eyes of the schools heart throb and, my crush. Percy Jackson.
Percy POV:
'Come on Percy, just five more mintes, I can do this I just need to focus.'
'But what in the hell is a unit circle supposed to do, and why does it have so many pie symbols on it? Mmm…pie. Great now I'm hungry. Ugh!'
This is the dialouge that was going through my head while I was in math class. Ms. Athena was going on a ramble about The unit circle and, why it was so important. I was honestly trying my hardest to pay attention and, not zone out like I usualy did but, having ADHD made that hard. This class was the worst class for me to stay focused in because, for starters it was the last period of the day so I was always thinking about what I would be doing after school. Which was mainly swim practice or hanging out with my friends and family. Second, I have never been good at math even in elementary school when they had to put me in special classes to help me. I guess it's because in math every thing has to be done in a certain order and, you have to be some what orginized. I am not organized, most of the time my backpack is a jumbled mess of paper's and, folder's (which said paper's should be in but, I was to lazy to put them in the folder's and, threw them in my backpack instead) and, food wraper's because I am always eating because I am always hungry.
The bell suddenly rang, jolting me out of my thought's.
"Finally." I muttered, standing up and stretching.
" Hey Perce, am I still coming over to your place for a sleepover tonight?" Asked my cousin, Jason as we were walking out of the classroom and, toward our lockers.
"If by sleep over you mean staying up all night watching movies, playing video games and, eating tons of junk food, then yes!"
"Hold on , we can watch movies but, we are not watching Finding Nemo again."
"What are you talking about? Finding Nemo is a great movie!"
"Dude we have watched it like fifty times already!"
"I only counted forty, thank you very much!" I answered letting sass coat my words.
Jason face palmed and shook his head. I honestly didn't know what his problem was that movie was a classic.
"What are you two fighting about now?"
We both turned to the direction of the voice and, was greeted by Annabeth and her girlfriend Reyna walking our way.
I smiled and waved at them. "Hey, Reyna. Hey, Wise girl."
"Hey guy's! We were just discussing percy's Finding Nemo addiction."
"I do not have an addiction!"
"Oh come on seaweed brain, tell that to someone who hasn't kown you for year's." Replied Annabeth with a roll of her eyes.
"Annabeth's right," Agreed Jason while putting a hand on my shoulder and, putting a faux serious look on his face. "The first step to recovering addiction is acceptance."
"Oh, shut up. You guy's are just jealous because you have no taste in movies." I huffed and, crossed my arms with a pout.
They all started laughing. " Whatever man, I'll be over at five. I have to go meet up with Piper, Leo and, Frank. See you guys later!"
"Yeah, you better go find Piper before your ankle braclet starts beeping!" I called after his receeding form."
"Oh seaweed brain, you know your just jealous."
"Me? Jealous? Remember I'm gay so, why would I be jealous that Jason has a girlfriend?"
"I think she is saying that you are jealous because Jason is with the person he likes. While you are still pinning over a certain someone." Reasoned Reyna.
" What are you talking about?"
"I believe she is refering to a certain dark and mysterious Italian that you can't seem to take your eyes off of in english class" Annabath giggled.
"I have no idea what you are talking about." I said turning to walk away so they couldn't see the heat rising to my face. I knew exactly who they were talking about but, I did not want to talk about it now. 'How did they know? I didn't tell them about how I felt about him.'
"Don't play stupid with me, I totally see the way you drool over him every day in class. Literally."
" I do not stare at him and, I do not drool over him."
She raised an eyebrow."Oh yeah, then tell me how many of your english paper's have drool spots on them, hm?"
"Oh would you look at the time, I've got to go and uh…. Return a book to the library before they close! See ya later!" I could hear them giggiling as I walked away.
' Whew, that was close!'
Okay confession time, I do have a major crush on the guy Annabeth and Reyna was talking about. His name is Nico Diangelo and, he has to be the hotest guy I have ever layed eyes on. First off he's Italian and, that is a massive turn on in it's self. He has black unruly shoulder length hair that compliments his pale skin. His eyes are a dark chocolate brown, sometimes they are so dark brown they look black. There are usually dark bag's under his eyes but, I think that just makes him look more adorable. He usually wears a black shirt (mostly band T-shirt's), black or gray skinny jeans (which exsentuate his ass quite nicely) and, a black hoodie or jacket along with black converse. He doesn't talk very much but, when he does his voice is deep and as smooth as velvet. Most people judge him for not bring as social as other people but, to me it just makes him more intregigng. And yes I know he is a freshman and I am a sophmore but, I could care less as long as I could put my arms around his waist, maybe even kiss him and, feel his soft lips upon mine-
'Whoa, Whoa! Stop thinking like that!' I mentally scolded myself. I couldn't think that way, he probably isn't even gay. Even if he was I am sure he wouldn't like me. I'm not even sure if he likes me as an aquaintane let alone like that. I mean he hasn't said a word to me, even when I got up the nerve to say 'hello' to hima couple of times, he just nodded and said nothing but, I tried not to let it get to me too much. But it's hard…
I was currently walking down the hallway with the gym and, the music wing in it. I was broken out of my thoughts by beautiful music that sounded like it was played by an angel. It was so full of emotion and passion I had to see who was playing the heavenly melody. I started my search by walking down the hallway that branches off of the main hallway where all the music rooms are. I didn't find anyone so I looked in the auditorium. It sounded closer now but the person was not on the stage. That's when I noticed gray folding dividers in the back of the auditorium and, the closer I got the louder and clearer I could hear the music. I steped out of the main entrance doors to the auditorium and saw other doors on either side of me. I went to the one on my right and looked through the window on the door.
I could not believe what I was seeing. It was my dark angel, Nico playing a cello, he was the source of the beautiful music. 'Could he get ant more attractive?'
I was so lost in my own thoughts that I didn't even notice I was opening the door and, entering the room. It's like he was a magnet and, I was a small paper clip being pulled closer to him with out even noticing. His arm with his hand that held the stick thing ( I think it is called a bow) was moving in langquid motions, left to right. The fingers that were playing the the notes on his instrument were shifting up and down his instrument, as if he were a professional, while he shook them slightly to bring a better quality to the music. His eyebrows were furrowed in concentration there was a look of determination in his eyes. But also at the same time his eyes were not as dark as thet usually were they were a lighter warmer shade of brown, they also seemed to be full of a different emotion. Hapiness. He seemed at ease and, relaxed which made me happy as well.
He didn't stop for a couple of minutes, so I took the opportunity to marvel is astonishment of the raw talent he possesed. He then stopped and looked at me, sea-green eyes clashed with chocolate brown. My heart started beating out of my chest and I could feel the blush threatening to cover my face. His eyes grew wide with a look of pure shock on his face and, Droped his bow on the floor, that's when I realized I may not be the person he was expecting.
There it is the first chapter! I know that Percy's POV was way longer than Nico's but, I will make up for it in later chapter's and we will learn more about Nico and, Percy. I am not sure how offten I will update but I will try to not take too long. I hope you like it so far and, please review. Thanks for reading! See you at the next chapter!
