AN: Hey guys! I won't be updating for awhile again, but I promise I'm working on my story "The Son Of Poseidon's Last Stand". I just want to update this story before leaving. So I would need a few suggestions on what kind of girl should Nico date in each chapter. I have some in store already, but I might want to know what your suggestions are. Is she an emo, a hipster, etc. You get the picture. Submit your suggestions via reviews or pm me if you want!

Nico Di Angelo, son of Hades is going to attend a stupid dating system made by children of Aphrodite. He wished that they would've gotten late so that Leo will be so devastated. Leo already paid for this idiotic matchmaking process. Nico prefers to play dead with the skeletons in the Underworld than going on speed or eating Demeter's cereals or being turned into a dandelion by Persephone. Sometimes, he even wonders if this is legal. Teenagers going on speed dating doesn't sound pretty good.

They almost got late because Nico had to change fourteen times in the closet. Leo blamed Mitchell for giving him the free will to choose his own clothing. Thus he ended up wearing a leather black jacket with a white undershirt. He has a scarf hanging over his neck and black jeans with leather shoes. He hated wearing white, and that's a fact. Mitchell reluctantly agreed to make Nico wear something, black again.

Leo was focused on the convenor who was explaining, or better yet advising a few dating tips to the twelve men in the room. Nico and Leo were surrounded by desperate and nervous teenage wackos who are looking for a girlfriend. The son of Hades never listened attentively at the tips given by the convenor. But he cannot help but notice that this convenor is much more than a mortal or demigod.

Judging by his looks, he is pretty good looking. The convenor has curly blonde locks and sparkling blue eyes. And let's add the fact that he adds a little bit of French in his advices. Nico stifled a yawn and his eyes went down to Leo who was furiously jotting down notes on a notepad.

"Seriously, Leo?" Nico raised a brow and the son of Hephaestus disregarded him.

"Alright, gentlemen, clear on how this dating works?" the convenor summarized, "You have to go into each room one at a time to connect with the young ladies. Remember six minutes is the allotted time to date with the girls! And yes, after you date the ladies, they will answer an evaluation sheet. So try not to mess things up or else your love life will be a fiasco" then there came nervous laughs from the twelve teens.

"Can I just leave?" Nico screamed silently at Leo. Leo chuckled and put his notepad on his pocket.

"Remember Aphrodite's curse, Nico. She will so not be glad that you will turn down this opportunity" Leo smirked, much to Nico's annoyance. Leo wore a plain olive green polo with blue jeans and chucks. He even wore a Ray Ban sunglasses and a Rolex on his wrist.

"Curse it" Nico hissed and Leo can't help but smile with amusement. Nico wanted to summon the dead anytime but the convenor was giving him a warning look. He seems to read his mind.

"Okay then! And away you go!" the convenor said cheerfully.

Leo accompanied Nico to his first room, room No. 9. Leo grinned goofily when Nico was deadly silent as they walk their way to the room. Nico Di Angelo, the demigod who fought Kronos' army is freaking nervous in dating a lady!

"Buck up, Nico! You faced an army of monsters! Everything will be fine! Smile and be yourself!" Leo advised happily. Then it sunk to him: That doesn't sound right.

"Be myself, huh? Next thing you know these women will be screaming their heads off. I radiate fear, remember?" Nico blurted out. Leo shrugged and pointed at the door.

"That 'fear' occurred to me when I first met you. What's creepy about you when I freaking got to know you? And you my friend, don't have any idea what kind of teenage women are these days" Leo replied nonchalantly and strode off to his designated room.

Nico stood in front of the door. He was hesitating to open that damn door. What if the girl he's going to do speed dating with is disguised as Alecto? No just no. If that happens, he'll shadow travel to the ceiling of the Empire State Building and jump or he might ask Persephone to turn him into a dandelion for eternity.

You can do this, Di Angelo. This is just a mere mortal! You've faced monsters and something much worse. This is piece of cake! Just show them that you are not interested in any way and wait for the time runs out. She might be even afraid of you, because she is after all a mortal.

Nico shook his head, trying to remove his thought on that idea,

What if she's Alecto? Or a monster? How about the ugliest mortal of all?!

Shut up, brain!

You can't shut me up! I'm you! Idiot!

Ha! You just called yourself an idiot!

Bitch please, you're talking to yourself!

Just stop thinking!

You have to die first make me stop thinking!

Again, he shook his head violently. He is so sick of having his mental fight. Then he heard someone clear his throat behind him. Nico turned and saw the convenor staring at him.

"Would you mind meeting your date already? It's not a very good impression for a lady to be late on dates" he said and Nico shrugged.

"You're Eros, aren't you?" he said simply. The god seemed to be pleased by the recognition and a smile played on his face.

"Il est bon de vous voir, d'ange" Eros's kaleidoscope eyes were staring intently at the son of Hades. Nico felt uncomfortable all of a sudden, why in the Hades is the love god doing here?

"Why am I doing here? Mon mere asked me to watch over you, son of Hades. She wanted me to make sure you are not going to do anything, douteux" Eros smiled good-naturedly and Nico was distracted by the strong perfume of the god.

"Aphrodite wanted me to do this speed dating without doing anything, dubious?" Nico asked and Eros nodded.

"That includes no usage of powers. If you failed to do so, the curse will be applied immediately. You most certainly don't want to see yourself wearing pink Barbie clothes in front of a woman." Nico groaned and Eros snapped his fingers.

"You need to fix your hair, son of Hades. Ladies prefer neat-looking guys, I tell you that" Eros waved and disappeared in a burst of light, leaving a hand mirror on the floor. Nico curiously picked up the mirror and his face paled. His hair was combed and slicked-back. For Nico, it was hideous! His hair was like it was soaked in gel that it looks shiny and too neat! It looks like the hair of the sons of Aphrodite! What will Hades say?

"In Zeus's name, what the hell?" Nico almost threw mirror on the ground but stopped when he heard thunder rumbling outside. He silently cursed and faced the door once again; his eyes darted to face the door and opened it.

"Can you freaking believe what he has done to me?" Emilie, the girl Nico's supposed to have speed dating with, cried so loud that Nico tried hard not to cover his ears. Gods, she's been like that for five minutes already.

"So much for a date!" Nico thought bitterly. The moment he stepped into that door and took a seat in front of the girl, she seemed to snap something inside her brain. Nico barely understood her rants. He was totally out of here! First, the stupid hairstyle and now, he is dating a psycho.

"ANSWER 'WHY'!" she screeched and Nico closed his ears with his hands. He really needs to get a few words with this petty mortal. Nico gritted his teeth and took all his might to reply:

"...why?" he said weakly and Emilie slammed her hands on the table, making Nico jump on his chair. He never thought mortal women could be this scary. No wonder why Hades don't want Persephone's wrath. Nico thought that only goddesses can be that scary. The only mortal woman he ever encountered was Sally Jackson. She was totally different from this lady here. How he wished his other dates aren't like this.

"He said he didn't love me! Then I was like, 'Sure I never loved you anyway!'. But-" Nico had to stop the urge to pull her down to Tartarus! He just has to wait for a few more seconds. Then the bell rang. Emilie sat exasperatedly on her chair. Nico froze; she looks like she was glaring at him.

Nico discreetly stood up and left the room. He bumped into Leo when he got out.

"Woah! Who freaking did your hair? You're like Loki in the Avengers movie!" Leo burst out laughing and Nico's face flustered. He is so going to strangle Eros for this.

"Leo. Shut. Up" he warned. Leo hugged his stomach and still has this goofy smile painted on his face.

"Alright! Alright! Haha!" Leo panted heavily, "So how's your first date?"

"Not cool, so not cool!" Nico screamed furiously that the other guys looked at him. Leo stifled a laugh.

"Chill, you have a five minute break to cool down! I'll handle this girl!" Leo grinned and Nico left abruptly. Silently, wishing luck to Leo once he stepped in that hell.

"And then I was like, 'How could you do this to me?' I really loved him, you know! then he will just go and toss my heart away like nothing ever happened! Well then, CURSE HIM!" Emilie ranted and Leo crossed his arms on his chest. He rolled his eyes and yawned loudly.

"For Hephaestus's sake, please shut this girl's mouth" Leo muttered, "Oh kill me now!" he thought grimly. He doesn't care if the girl heard him or not, but it didn't make her stop from ranting about her ex. "I wanted him to love me so bad! You have no idea how cruel he can be!" Leo looked at his Rolex watch and sighed.

"Only five minutes to go..."

AN: Not that good! I hope I'll be a lot better next time! So yeah, your suggestions please!
