With a sigh, Nico got in his black sedan, flicking the ignition on as he leaned back on the seat. The car jerked forward as he drove out of his high school parking lot, and his bag thumped against the passenger seat, carrying stacks of homework for the high school senior. Nico reached forward to flick on the radio, which was set to a soothing classical music station. At least, it was meant to be soothing, until the ear-piercing violin solo made Nico turn it off with a grumble. Taking a sip from his coffee, he tapped his fingers on the steering wheel while waiting for the traffic light. He set the drink down and drove forward, about to turn the corner when a white SUV came out of nowhere, running the red light and heading straight for Nico.
Shoulders slumping from exhaustion, Will got in his car. His messy blond hair got caught in his seatbelt, coaxing a groan out of the tired 19 year old. He pressed down on the gas, the white SUV lurching forward as he drove out of his school's parking lot. Will could feel his eyelids drooping and he fought to stay awake, knowing it wasn't exactly the safest thing to do while driving. But the blaring of a car horn snapped him awake as he looked up, and he swore loudly as he swerved his car around a black one, ending up on the grass. He rubbed his temples as he got out of the car, ready to apologize and get back on his way. But a beautiful boy stopped him in his tracks, a scowl etched across his pale face.
Nico swerved, ending up in the middle of the crossroads. His breathing was heavy as he drove to the side of the road and put an annoyed look on his face as he got out of the car. But he wasn't expecting a tall, blonde boy with sky blue eyes and freckles spattered across his face. He fought the blush creeping up on his cheeks and hoped he still had his intimidating face on as the other boy gave an apologetic smile. "Sorry about that. My name's Will, by the way." the other boy said, his voice laced with a slight southern accent.
"Nico." Nico replied, giving up on his pissed off look and giving Will a shy smile.
"Ok, well then, I really gotta get going," Will said, apologizing once again as he headed back to his car.
"W-wait!" Nico blurted out, instantly regretting it and covering his mouth as Will turned around, his confused expression slowly turning into a smirk. "I was just wondering if I could… have your number, y'know, so we could see each other again," Nico managed to mumble out, his face crimson red. Will tried to stop him from laughing, but his self control crumbled at Nico's adorable face and he burst out laughing.
"Sure!" Will said in between laughs as he took Nico's phone and typed his number in. "I guess I'll catch you later then, Nico," Will said with a wink, somehow making Nico blush harder as he slid into the driver seat. This sure was going to be an interesting year.
