I will answer reviews now
megSUPERFAN: Nico's girl friend is my oc. She is basically me except her eyes, blond tips, and I have lighter skin. Her name is Skylar. She is Piper's twin. I have her in my band au story and she is in the story I am working on
I believe in nargles too: I know Nico's gay. If you are a fan of him and Will I deeply apologize for this chapter. I will write a Solangelo once I get an idea for it.
Elelelssu: I agree it is a pretty awful restaurant. I don't know the name of it that's why I kept it generic and but a restaurant. Just think of a restaurant you hate. There we go.
This chapter will include Skylar and Nico because of the first review and because I have na idea for them. I am sorry to Solangelo (spelling anyone?) fans. I have no hate for gay people. I honesty think they are a cute couple.
My name is Ryan Smith. I go my middle name Morgan though. I am a cheerleader at West Wood High. I have brownish red hair, caramel skin and dark brown eyes. I'm not a stereotypical cheerleader though. I am pretty nice to be around. I also have a pretty big crush on my friend Nico. Everyone in our group knows it.
I was heading to my next class when something caught my eye. It was a poster for the school formal. I smiled hopefully he will take me. I sighed happily and skipped the rest of the way. While not paying attention, I ran into Skylar McLean. She has tan skin, eyes that constantly change colors, mid back length brown hair with blond tips. She is a very good basketball and soccer player. Most guys enjoy hanging out with her because she likes playing sports, she doesn't complain when the guys hit her (she just gets them back) or any thing similar and she has been deemed one of the five most beautiful girls at the school. Today she was in dark blue denim shorts that were folded up last the ends, a bright orange t-shirt, and black converse. She fell to the floor when we collided.
"Woah, sorry," she said getting up.
"It's fine," I said slightly annoyed.
"See ya," she called as she ran down the hall.
Line
I sat with my group. Nico was across from me on some weird phone. It was bronze and had writing on it that I couldn't make out because of our distance and his hand. I did see a flamming hammer where the apple is suppose to be. Suddenly his face broke off into a grin you rarely see on Nico.
"What tickled your feather," Justinian* asked.
"Nothing much. My friends are just picking me up," he said as if it didn't matter but from his smile it did.
"Oh, I feel loved," Silica** mocked.
Nico swatted at her playfully and returned to his phone.
"Who are they," Justinian asked.
"What?" Silica and I asked in unison.
Nico rolled his eyes and showed us a picture of a group of kids in shirts like Skylar's. They were standing on a battlefield but they looked like they couldn't be happier. Not to mention their clothes had rips and blood was splattered all over them. Nico was there, trying and failing to look like he was annoyed with the black haired boy resting his arm on his shoulder. Now that I kept looking they were surrounded by buildings that must have been near the Empire State Building. No one was near though.
"A few of these are the friends that are picking me up. We go to a summer camp that puts on plays at the end of each summer. This play was battle themed. We didn't bother getting costumes for it and just wore our camp shirts," he said with a more serious and Nico like expression on his face.
"Who all is going to the formal?" Richmond asked sitting down next to me.
"Where have you been?" Silica questioned.
"Not important. So whose going?"
There were four yes's that went around the table.
"Depends," Nico shrugged.
"On what?" I asked.
"If my date accepts," he said before getting up and leaving the cafeteria. He bumped into Skylar on the way out.
"Oh my goodness," Silica squealed.
"What?" I asked panicked.
"Dude he practically said he wasn't going to the dance if you didn't accept," Richmond said with a mouthful of food.
"He never said that. Besides how do we know he likes me?" I pointed out.
"I just have a gut feeling," he responded, then burped.
We chuckled in response maybe, just maybe Nico actually likes me.
Line 2
We were waiting outside with Nico. After a lot of pleading and beggi he said we were allowed to meet his friends.
I was getting tired of waiting when a strawberry delivery van pulled up. Very recklessly might I add. I was surprised the driver was allowed on the road. Out of the van came several kids. First was a boy with windswept, raven black hair, tanned skin and amazing sea green eyes. Next came a girl with wavy, golden blond hair, lightly tanned skin and calculating grey eyes. Out next came a tall boy with blond hair, tanned skin and electric blue eyes that probably could scare the crap out of you if he wanted. Behind him came a Cherokee girl I feel like I've seen before. She was beautiful without even trying. She had choppy brown hair, tanned skin and kaleidescope eyes. Next came a boy than seemed to have chugged a dozen coffees. He had that smile that made you check your pockets. He had pointed ears, curly black hair, brown eyes and tanned skin. He was the driver. Then a girl with golden brown hair, lightly tanned skin and dark almond shaped eyes came out. Behind her was a girl with cinnamon brown hair, dark skin, and amazing eyes that resemble molten gold. After her was a tall Asian boy with black hair and brown eyes***. They all wore bright orange t-shirts except for the last two who had purple t-shirts.
The door to the school opened and there stood Skylar. She was smiling as if she won the lottery. She ran down the stairs and embraced the Cherokee girl. Now I know why skenwaa so familiar. She must be Skylar's twin.
"I am so glad for winter break. I have had to go to school. Why Chiron suggested this I don't know,"
"Stop complaining Sky. Come on Neeks," the driver said.
"I'm driving," Skylar said before running to the van.
Nico looked at him sharply, "Neeks? Seriously Valdez".
"Who are these people, " Silica asked.
"Oh yeah. Um from the order they got out we have Percy, Annabeth, Jason, Piper, Leo, Calypso, Hazel and Frank. Bye guys," then he disappeared into the van.
When the van pulled off it was really only a bit better that when Leo ,I guess, was driving. I looked after him in confusion and my friends mirrored that look.
Line 3
I was getting very tired of Nico. Every time I bring up the dance ha makes an excuse and leaves. The formal is in two days. I already have a dress. It's hot pink floor length with a white sash around the waist. It only has one strap and that strap has a white flower at the part near the actual dress. I paired the dress with hot pink 3 inch heels and some make up.
Today I was going to take matters into my own hands. I strutted over to where Nico was talking to Justinian. Just as I was two feet from him, Skylar McLean stopped in front of him. She said something in another language. Her cheeks were covered in a light pink blush that seemed natural. Nico gapped in surprise before nodding. Skylar smiled, said something in the other language, punched him in the arm, then left.
"What was that?" I asked stepping forward.
Nico awkwardly looked around. "Nothing. Skylar was telling me our friends were coming to the formal. I have to go. You know class and stuff,"
I sighed as he dashed off.
"Sorry Nico is so clueless, Morg," Justinian said before walking with me to a class we shared with Nico.
He was at the back of the class. Far away from where we usually sit. He was also surrounded by the kids he never would have sat with before today.
The rest of the day anytime Justinian or I came near he would make an excuse then leave. I have tried to talk to him multiple times but he has managed to come up with over ten reasons to leave.
I tried texting him that night.
Hey Nico
Hi
So do you have a date to the dance?
(Nico has seen message. Nico has left the chat)
I growled and sat on my bed with a huff. I'll show him after tomorrow is the dance. I will blow his mind when I walk in.
Line 4
I was entering the formal. Sure I got many stares but none from my best friend and crush. Just as I found a table and grabbed some punch, the doors swung open.
There in all her glory stood Skylar McLean. She was in a dress. I can't believe it (link to dress in my profile. Too lazy to describe it). Following her were all the girls from the van along with the boys then Nico.
He walked next to Skylar. Nico held a hand out to her and gestured to the dance floor. A slow sonh was playing and all of the kids from the van found a spot before swaying to the music. After the song was over Nico dragged Skylar off the floor. When he spotted Silica, Richmond and I, he nudged Skylar. She turned to us and walked our way. Catcalls followed her but she ignored them and squeezed Nico's hand.
"Well hello," Skylar announced.
"Hi, who are you?" Silica said slightly hostile for my sake.
Skylar didn't react, "Skylar McLean, Nico di Angelo's girlfriend".
My heart plummeted. Nico seemed happy enough. Skylar leaned forward and kissed Nico directly on the lips. There were catcalls and sad sighs all around us.
" McLean, di Angelo, cut the PDA," their friend who managed to make a tool belt look good with a suit.
"Like you and Calypso are any better, Valde," Skylar retorted, slightly red.
The boy, Valdez, turned red along with the girl standing beside him. There was some exchange over there and the raven haired boy and his girlfriend turned red.
"We should go. Chiron expects us back in time for the camp fire," Skylar said and began to yank on Nico's arm. She probably thought she was going something but in reality she looked like a spoiled toddler. Finally Nico complied.
Nico didn't come back to school the next day or the next. Neither did Skylar. I did see them running in central park. Nico was holding a black sword and was behind him holding a shorter bronze sword with a black hilt. She kept looking behind them. I noticed they were being chased by large hawks and big dogs. Skylar tripped. Nico turned and swiped a hand out. The ground cracked and skeletons began to crawl out of the ground. Nico pulled Skylar up but she stumbled when she put pressure on her leg. Nico crouched in front of her and she climbed on his back. He ran to the shadows and they disappeared. I never saw them again.
A/N: Again I'm taking requests and OCS. Requirements in the previous chapter. See you next week
