Nico POV
I hightailed it outta there. I was so embarrassed I hoped that he wouldn't notice when I said that. Now he probably thinks I'm weird. I mean I am, but still… More than normal. I'm worried he'll never like me now. He's probably thinking that I had no right to talk to him, or even be partners with him. He's totally right though, he's practically a god. No, he is a god. I can't blame him if he has a giant ego. I bet that isn't the only thing that's big… I sighed. He is so dreamy! Oh, no I'm starting to feel like Glados after reading some fanfic. At least I won't start flailing around on the floor, make unhuman noises.
Actually, fanfiction is just what I need right now. After I ran out of the library, I wanted to stop by my small apartment for something to eat. Or, since Glados' place is closer, I just might go there. She gave me the keys, just in case. Then, I saw him. My secret, cheating, lying, sonofabitch ex boyfiend (A/U: the wrong spelling was intentional). Will Solace.
He was barreling towards my car, and looking frantic. He was gross and sweaty, probably coming from PE. Will didn't seem to be slowing, and I didn't want to talk to him. We broke up a couple days ago, when I found out he was cheating on me with Miranda (courtesy of Glados and her phone). He was nearing closer so I hurried up. Within 10 yards now, and here come the dreaded words…
"NICO! Wait!"
All of a sudden, the motherload of miracles happened. Glados comes running out of the building, with Leo on her tail. She must not of left yet. She launches her signature death-glare at Will, rushes to my side, gives a quick kiss and opens the door for me. I flash her a genuine grin, and glance behind me to notice an enraged Will and crestfallen Leo. Wait, crestfallen? No time for those thoughts now. Escape plan first. I jump into the driver's seat and she slides over the hood and called shotgun. With that, we sped off. We got past a few miles and I think she got impatient.
"Do I not get a thank you? I just saved your ass. And by the way, we should skip the rest of the day. Hate to run into, actually, them both."
"Thanks, you did save me-"
"I always do." She interrupted.
"And, you know, I think we will skip the rest of the day."
"Good. So, how does it feel to have your largest crush as a 30-day project partner?"
"Can we not not talk about this?"
"Hmph. Don't let yourself think ima let the subject drop. If you're so set on changing the subject, why don't you come up with a conversation?" Glados questioned.
