Disclaimer: I own nothing.
So...I'm sorta kinda maybe a little busy working on my top-secret fanfic, and I just had to rewrite the whole thing out of annoyance so...
Sorry?
Anyways *yeets chapter* i should clear up my docs big time I swear I wrote part of it out already somewhere...
Nico's P.O.V.
"I am not getting into the pool."
Nico was standing on the edge of the pool, wearing a pair of Goode High swim trunks and a swim shirt . It was Swim Test week at Goode High. And everyone was required to participate.
Lucky him.
The P.E. teacher gave him an exasperated look. "And why is that?"
"Because I'll drown."
"Can you even swim?" One of the guys yelled out. His friend snickered.
Nico rolled his eyes. "Obviously not. And the last time I tried, I nearly drowned, no thanks to my cousins."
"Can you at least float?"
"I told you, I nearly drowned. if i could float, I doubt I would've been sitting at the bottom of the lake cursing the world."
The teacher sighed. "Well, unfortunately everyone needs to learn how to swim. So you'll have to take lessons. I can sign you up-"
Nico backed up. "Oh no. No way. Noooo thank you."
'-with our best swimmer, Percy Jackson."
The girls swooned. Nico retreated further back.
"Uh, no. Definitely not. He's the idiot that been trying every other week to get me into the pool and right now he owes his girlfriend 50 bucks because of it. Feel free to ask him yourself. As for me, I'm going to take a seat...where it's dry." Nico stalked to the bleachers and climbed all the way up.
The teacher sighed, started the test, and made a note to call in Percy Jackson for a chat during lunch.
Percy's P.O.V.
'Let me guess, you offered Nico swimming lessons and he refused?" Percy sighed.
The teacher nodded. "Yes, and unfortunately we can't let him off of this, or I'd just give him a free pass..."
"Yeah, no, Nico's definitely going nowhere near water. He...sort of ha an incident with my dad, and even though they get along fine he still won't go swimming unless you actively push him in. And that doesn't usually end well." Percy chuckled nervously. running his hand through his hair.
'Or we could always bribe him."
Percy jumped and reached for his pocket, before seeing who it was. "Malcoln? What are you doing at my school?"
"Annabeth. Said you left this behind." He held up a very familiar bag. Percy groaned and took it. "Thanks, man. I owe you one."
"Great. So you'll go along with my idea of how to get the counselor of Cabin 13 into the pool and out the other end?"
"Wait, what? Oh fine, go ahead, as long as he doesn't kill me later." Percy sighed.
The teacher shrugged. "As long as he doesn't drown, go for it."
Malcoln grinned. "Right, so first we need to get ahold of a certain medical student..."
Nico's P.O.V.
Nico was putting things away into his locker when he felt someone tap his shoulder.
"Hey, um, Nico? What was that all about?"
Nico turned to see Laurie Pines standing behind him. Her brown hair was tied back in a ponytail, her chocolate-colored eyes staring at him intensely.
"Oh, uh, hi Laurie. Um, so you remember what I told you before dragging you to New York, right?" Nico asked. Totally skipping over the re-introductions-and-explainations part.
Just like the first time they'd met.
Laurie shrugged. "Yeah, Greek gods, demigods, camp. So what does that have to do with you and refusing to get in the pool?"
He gave her a thoughtful look. "What do you think?"
"I think you're nuts."
"Good to know. So, mind if we take a little trip to McDonald's? I think we have some catching up and explaining to do."
He wasn't going to let her slip through his fingers again.
That and he really wanted a BigMac.
So this was really short and weird, it'll make sense later, I promise!. And it almost became a one shot. , back on track now! Reviews, and feel free to guess at what my secret fanfic idea is!
