Nico's P.O.V.
I woke up early the next day and started to look around trying to remember what day it was. Oh, that's right; it was Friday, so I'll get my tour of Manhattan sometime this weekend. Should be fun. I guess Percy's alright; he's different than I originally thought he would be. He seems willing to be my friend. He did say something about him introducing me to his friends today, but I'm a little wary of him as well. I've met people who try to be your friend and just end up stabbing me in the back. I can just only hope that Percy isn't one of those people because he actually seems to care and want to be my friend, but I guess I just have to wait and find out. After a few minutes, I was ready for school. I already had my binders and any other materials I might need already in my locker at school and then I realized I couldn't even remember where my locker was located at in the school or my first class, so I figured it was wise to text Percy where I could meet up with him so he could help me. I then texted Percy, "Where can I meet up with you, I can't remember where my class is?-Nico" After I sent it, I almost immediately got a reply from him. "Why not at your locker? You'll need your stuff anyways. Unless you don't know where it's at either.-Percy" I quickly typed in a response, "Nope, I can't remember. Sorry.-Nico" The reply I got back was, "Don't worry about it. Front Entrance at 8?-Percy" I then sighed in relief and responded, "Sure. I'll see you there. Thanks Perce.-Nico" And the text that officially ended the conversation was, "No problem. And don't worry about it.-Percy"
I went into the living room and then told my dad to drop me off at the Front Entrance at the school at eight. My dad nodded before telling me to make sure I was completely ready, since we were going to leave the house in a few. I nodded, happy that he was actually trying to be more of a father towards me and not as busy and would actually talk and pay attention to me for once and not just care all about his job. When I actually got to school, I saw Percy at the entrance, waiting. I then told my dad I'd see him after school and asked if he'd pick me up so I wouldn't have to ride the bus. He nodded in response and I got out of the car and headed to where Percy was.
"Hey Nico, ready for first period?" Percy said to me when I got to where he was.
"Sure. But you'll still have to show me where everything is. I kind of forgot," I said sheepishly while rubbing the back of my neck nervously.
Percy chuckled, "Sure Nico, come on or we're going to be late to class." I then followed Percy to wherever our lockers happen to be before some girl showed up.
"Percy where were you yesterday? I wanted to talk to you."
Percy responded, "I was busy," who I noticed was gritting his teeth.
"Busy with what? It's not like it was anything important. It never is."
Percy replied darkly, "Actually it was." The girl was about to say something before a look from Percy which said, don't-even-think-about-it.
So she just said, "Whatever, I'll see you later." And walked away and pretended that I wasn't even there. After she left Percy sighed in relief.
I then asked him, "Who on earth was that?"
Percy answered, "My ex-girlfriend. She's been trying to get back together with me."
I snorted in disbelief, "Well she's not doing a very good job of it. If she's really that cocky and stuck up, anyways. Why did you even go out with her?"
Percy just shrugged and said, "She wasn't always like that. She used to be one of my best friends, but ever since we dated, she changed. She became cocky, thought that she was better than everyone else and would always criticize me on whatever I did. So I ended it with her, so she's been trying to talk to me, but I just began avoiding her."
I nodded my head before saying, "If that's what most girls are like. I'm glad that I haven't dated one."
Percy's eyes were wide with surprise and shock, "You've never dated anyone?"
I just shrugged my shoulders and said, "Too much trouble and effort."
Percy snorted and replied, "Well ain't that the truth."
Percy and I then walked to first period, Geometry. After we walked into the class, Percy held me back, telling me to wait before he said to the teacher. "Mr. Gates, this is Nico Di Angelo. He's the new student the office told you about."
Mr. Gates nodded, and said, "Nico go ahead and take a seat next to Percy Jackson." I nodded while Percy got me the books I would need for this class and let the day and torture begin.
