Chapter 4

Nico's POV

I watched as Percy went to the stage to perform. Eric helps him to set up. He then chose the guitar as his instrument. He then wave to the crowd and flashed his goofy smile. I heard the girls giggle. I chuckled. Nothing has change. He still makes the girls swoon for him. He then started strumming the guitar. I recognized the song. It was "Perfect by Simple Plan." I thought to myself this is what Percy is feeling right now.

Hey dad look at me
Think back and talk to me
Did I grow up according to plan?
And do you think I'm wasting my time doing things I wanna do?
But it hurts when you disapprove all along

And now I try hard to make it
I just wanna make you proud
I'm never gonna be good enough for you
Can't pretend that
I'm alright
And you can't change me

'Cause we lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
I'm sorry
I can't be perfect
Now it's just too late and
We can't go back
I'm sorry
I can't be perfect

I try not to think
About the pain I feel inside
Did you know you used to be my hero?
All the days you spent with me
Now seem so far away
And it feels like you don't care anymore

And now I try hard to make it
I just wanna make you proud
I'm never gonna be good enough for you
I can't stand another fight
And nothing's alright

'Cause we lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
I'm sorry
I can't be perfect
Now it's just too late and
We can't go back
I'm sorry
I can't be perfect

Nothing's gonna change the things that you said
Nothing's gonna make this right again (right again)
Please don't turn your back
I can't believe it's hard
Just to talk to you
But you don't understand (you don't understand)

'Cause we lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
I'm sorry
I can't be perfect
Now it's just too late and
We can't go back
I'm sorry
I can't be perfect

The crowd went wild as he finished the song. I was speechless. I never knew that he is so good at it. I joined the crown applauding for him. Some even requested for another song but he declined. "I will love to guys but maybe some other time." He explained. He then head back to our table. "Wow Perce I didn't know you can sing. I mean really, really sing." Percy just smirked at me. "How come we didn't know? I particularly and I thought I knew everything about you." I asked feeling a bit disappointed. "Well for starters, I was planning to keep it from our family. But then Kelsi found out." He explained. "So little devil knows the secret huh?" Percy nodded. "And Mom also found out just this week." He added. "So what are you planning to do now?" I asked. "I don't know. I mean I know what I want but with Dad's disapproval I don't think I can do anything about it." I stayed quiet thinking of what he just said. "You know what let us not talk about it. Let's just drink." He said.

Eric then approached us. "Perce, those girls are asking for your phone number." He informed us. Percy rolled his eyes. "Not again!" He groaned. Eric and I laugh at him. "Tell them I'm married!" He said. "Ok whatever you say bro."He then left. We stayed for a while and then we head home.

When we reached the house, we said our goodnight and head straight to our own room. When I hit the bed, I can't get to sleep. An idea is forming in my mind. I tried to ignore it but I can't. After battling with my inner thoughts, I finally decided what to do. I plan to do it tomorrow, hoping that this idea of mine will not cause chaos between our families. After some time I finally drifted to sleep.

Third Person's POV

In the morning, nobody wants to talk about what happened last night. Sally is eyeing his son, but Percy stayed quiet. She deep sighed and continued eating. Kelsi on the other hand can't take the silence. She then decided to annoy Nico. "Hey Nico!" she called. "What?" He replied. "Nothing." She said grinning. Nico raised his eyebrow. "Cut the crap. What is it?" He asked again. "Okay you asked for it. How come you are a NGSB guy?" She asked. They looked at her with confused faces. She rolled her eyes, "NSGB meaning No Girlfriend Since Birth." Percy choked on his food. Nico's eye got wide. Sally looked at her with disbelief in her eyes. But Kelsi isn't done yet. "How old are you now anyways? 21 right?"

Nico glared at her cousin. "Kelsi.." Sally warns her. She ignored her mother. "So?" she asked. "Mind your own business!" Nico snarled at Kelsi. "Just answer me, how hard can it be?" she insisted. Sally then said, "Don't be rude Kelsi." Percy just shook his head from her sister's sudden interest on Nico's lovelife. Suddenly Kelsi's eyes got wide. "Don't tell me you're gay?!" she exclaimed.

Nico choked on his food. Percy then started laughing. "What the hell Kelsi! Don't you dare accuse me of being gay!" Nico shouted. Sally then clears her throat. Nico then apologizes. "Kelsi that is not nice." She scolded her daughter. "I am just asking." She explained. "To answer your question, I am 100% sure that I am a man. Not having a girlfriend doesn't mean I am gay!" Nico said with gritted teeth. "Calm down Nico, she is just teasing you." Percy butted in. Nico then shifted the attention to Percy. "Why don't you also ask your brother if he is gay? " she asked Kelsi. "Hey!" Percy complained. "I don't need to. I am confident that he is not. He had a girlfriend back in London. You too know that." She informed. "You are so annoying!" he then surrendered.
