NICO

I shook my head about to inform Annabeth of how wrong she was about the whole thing, but Thalia chose that moment to walk back into the room.

"That was just Jason, no big deal." She moved across the room to sit beside Annabeth and then looked up at me and smirked, "We were in the middle of girl talk, what is Percy boring you or something?"

"Hey!" Percy exclaimed as he walked into the room holding the other baby. "He ran away from me midsentence and he was the one talking."

"Right Percy of course we believe that." Annabeth answered sarcastically while rolling her eyes.

"Whatever" Percy grumbled, "Babe my mum's still expecting us with the kids, she just called to confirm so we'd better get going."

She smiled at his grumpiness as she lifted herself off the bed. "Bye Thalia, we'll probably see when you get back from the meeting and have more girl time okay?"

Thalia smiled back, "of course Annabeth, I wouldn't miss it for the world." She then stood up to pinch the children's cheeks and hug Annabeth and Percy.

I said my goodbye's to the couple as they made their way out and turned to find Thalia packing up her stuff. "Woah, where are you going?"

She stood up and raised her eyebrow, "To my house? If you had forgotten, I don't actually live here." She snorted and resumed her packing.

I stood there awkwardly watching her for a few seconds, "At least let me give you a ride back?"

"It is alright boss, I'm sure I can make my way back on my own" I continued shifting from one leg to another as I watched her gather all her belongings and place them in her bags.

After a few moments of standing there awkwardly, I walked into my room to get changed for a swim. If I was going to be all by myself on a Saturday evening I might as well do some exercise right?

I walked back out to see Thalia closing up her bags. There was a slight pang in my chest because honestly? I didn't want her to go. I racked my brain for an excuse to make sure she didn't leave but when I came up empty handed I blurted out, "Hey are you sure you need to leave, I mean we could watch a movie and hang out or something, it's better than being alone one a Saturday evening right?" Once that sentence was out, I tried not to outwardly wince at how desperate it sounded.

She gave me an odd look, "Actually, I have plans tonight…" she trailed off leaving an awkward silence between us.

"Oh, right cool. I'll pick you up at 12 on Monday, don't be late. Enjoy your weekend and close the door behind you." I walked away from her, removing the shirt I was wearing and dumping it beside the door to the pool. I hoped that didn't come across as rude but I didn't see any way to make sure I kept my pride and dignity intact.

I didn't notice the hour slip by but swimming laps eventually got boring so I scooped myself out of the pool and dried myself off with a towel. As I walked back in I noticed that the TV was on and I hoped it was Thalia who had decided to stay. But when I walked into the living room three men jumped out from behind the chair and screamed "BOO!" causing me to flinch inwardly but on the outside I just raised an eyebrow.

"Come on Di Angelo! At least act like you were scared!" one of them lamented as he fell into the chair.

"You really suck at things like this you know?" The second one grumbled as he walked round the chair to stand in front of me

"I knew it would never work but they forced me. How are you mate?"

I smiled now, "Hey Will, I'm doing great. When did you get back from London?" I asked ignoring the two imbeciles behind him.

"I actually just got back this morning and I convinced Castor and Pollux here that we ought to throw a surprise party for Jake Mason and in about an hour and a half, we got everyone involved, booked out their club, ordered extra booze and now we came to get you because you haven't picked up your damn phone." I noticed that his British Accent became a lot more prominent when he was ranting, but I still blushed at the comment, "Woops, I'm sorry. I'll be done in about thirty minutes if you guys want to help yourselves to some beers or wine or whatever."

I quickly threw together an outfit of a black button up shirt, black jeans and loafers. My top two buttons were undone so my black necklace was on display. I sprayed some of my favourite cologne, grabbed my wallet and phone then I left the room.

I got outside to find the guys looking comfortable with some beers as they watched a basketball game. They seemed so entranced in the game that they didn't notice me until I switched off the television right when one of the players took a shot.

"What the-?!"

"No!"

"Di Angelo you massive knob!" I smiled at their simultaneous cries of anger.

"Get over it guys, we need to get going. Do any of you have a car?"

"About that, we all caught a cab from the club so… no." Castor said as he ran a hand through his sandy blonde hair.

I rolled my eyes, "Guessed as much. Come on boys, it's time to party!"

We turned up at the club in my black Maserati a few minutes later. I parked in the back so I wouldn't draw to much attention to the busy New York club. We walked in right as everyone was screaming surprise for Jake and we quickly made it seem like we'd been there the whole time.

Will made his way up to the front with Castor and Pollux carrying two giant bottles of pink label Moet et Chandon Champagne bottles. He lifted himself onto the table and clapped his hands to get everyone's attention.

"My wonderful friends and family, today is the day where one of our very own was brought into the world and because of that, we must be jolly on this day. Jake Mason was one of those special spirits that the gods and or God himself ordained for greatness and on this day which marks his 27th year of being bloody amazing," he paused to let the cheers and whoops chorus, "We just have to band together and have the time of our lives, but more importantly make sure he has the time of his life. So Cheers to Jake Mason, the man of the day!" With that Castor and Pollux popped the two bottles and promptly started filling the guests' cups.

I smiled at his speech; Will had always been very good with words. He sauntered back over to me with a huge grin. "Nice speech dude, well said." I complimented him.

"Thanks Nico, so which lovely lady have you got your beady little eyes on today?" he asked throwing an arm around my shoulder.

I shrugged hoping he'd let it drop, but he pointed over to where a girl with back length wavy black hair stood. I couldn't see her face but her dress was tight and left little to the imagination. "What about that black haired beauty?"

I studied her about to say no because she wasn't a certain black haired woman I knew but I looked to the right and there she was talking animatedly to this other black haired woman. I looked back at Will and smiled, "you distract the one with long hair, and I'll take the one with short hair. Remember our strategy?"

He laughed then, "Yeah, divide and conquer! Gods, we were such knobs when we were 17 which reminds me, where are the Jacksons? Someone else was supposed to be on them." He craned his neck to search for the couple but stopped after he couldn't locate them.

"They're probably around here somewhere. Now to the main order of business, wish me luck!"

He ran a hand through his hair, and then made his way over to the two women who were standing against the wall. In a few minutes he had the woman's attention, leaving Thalia standing alone. I advanced towards her but kept out of her line of sight. Once the woman turned back to tell Thalia she was going to dance with Will, I walked up to Thalia from behind and whispered into her ear.

"You look absolutely beautiful this evening" She spun around and her eyes widened as she noticed who it was.

"Nico, What are you doing here?" she asked surprised. I stood beside her, "The celebrant is one of my best friends. What about you?"

"I dated the celebrant's younger brother and I'm quite good friends with some of his close friends..." She looked up at me for a moment, "which now includes you."

"Well so it would seem." I said moving closer to her.

"So, Miss Grace, would you like to dance?" I asked her with a grin.

She looked around for a second and then shrugged, "Yeah, why not"

I placed my hand around her waist and she placed her arms around my neck. I wondered out loud how she was able to do that so easily and she pointed at her shoes which were so ridiculously high, it was unreal. The rest of her outfit however was, for lack of a better way to phrase it, really sexy. Her dress was tight on the top with a lace see through back and then on the bottom it was loose with a flared skirt that stopped mid-thigh. Her make up really made her eyes stand out in a way that I thought suited her.

After a few minutes dancing very closely and talking, we spotted Annabeth and Percy seated on the far side of the club and decided to join them.

"Hey Mummy and Daddy, shouldn't you be with the twins?" I teased them.

"My mum heard about the party and threw us out without our kids. Something about us not going out enough for our ages or something like that." Percy smiled.

I shrugged, "Well, since you're here, we might as well play a few games and get completely hammered. Castor says close friends can use the rooms upstairs. So, who's game?" I asked with an evil smile.

Annabeth, Percy and Thalia exchange looks and there's silence for a second before they all crack smiles and give yells of consent. I smile even wider and call a waiter who looks frazzled. "First rounds on me guys!" I ordered twelve shots of tequila and a couple of minutes the waiter came back with the drinks. I picked up one and they all followed suit. I raised my glass to have the commemorating shot, "Well guys let the games begin and may the best drinker win" We all toasted to that and began our wild night.

Somewhere after my twelfth alternating shot straight of tequila and whisky I had successfully drank Percy, Annabeth and Thalia under the table and we were all totally wasted. I was slightly aware but even I had little to no coordination.

But the best part was, just about every single person who had been invited to this gathering was exactly the same. Except the people who had been made drivers, what an unlucky bunch.

Now Percy, Annabeth, Thalia stood around our table dancing wildly to some Bruno Mars song. I could not for the life of me remember what it was called. The next song that came on was a slow song which meant Annabeth and Percy resumed eating each other's faces out.

I looked around for Thalia and saw her dancing closely against some random guy and even in my extremely drunken haze I could feel the anger pooling in my stomach. I noticed him reaching his hand up her thigh and under her dress. Thalia was too drunk to notice what was happening but I wasn't going to let some random guy have his way with her, she was my girl.

I didn't even stop to think about what exactly I just said, or thought, I stormed over to where they were and pried her away from him. I hadn't been this angry in a long time, and being drunk as well didn't help my temper. "Get your hands off her you fucking bastard." I hissed at him.

"Why should I do that? She's a fucking whore dude and she's free game." he slurred trying to get her back in his clutches. Once he said that, I saw red and not a tint or light shade of it. I saw blood red. "She's my girlfriend and I'll show you exactly what happens when you try to screw with my girlfriend." I loosened my hold on Thalia to punch the sanity out of this low life, but she teetered slightly and nearly fell over. In that moment some of my anger dissolved and I reached back to grab her waist. At that moment however, she seemed to become less drunk because she snorted and tried to speak, "What are you talking about? You're my-" I had a bad feeling about where this sentence was going to end so I pulled her towards me and gave her a hard kiss.

Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed the guy grimace at our lip locked position and slither off to find another wasted woman to molest. I made to end the kiss but Thalia had other ideas, she tilted her head to the side and deepened the kiss. Only momentarily surprised, I tried to push her off me but she wasn't happy with that. With strength I didn't know she pushed me up against the wall and attacked my neck and sucked on that sensitive spot.

"T-Thalia, you n-need to stop." I stuttered out, my resolve slowly slipping away.

Unfortunately, stopping wasn't part of her plan. She distracted me enough that I didn't notice her undo my belt and trousers but I did finally notice what she was doing when she dropped to the floor in front of me and started giving me a blow job.

This is so wrong; there I was getting sucked off in a very secluded corner in a club by my assistant. I had to stop her somehow, but God she knows how to use her mouth.

I still felt like I was taking advantage of her so I mustered up all the self-control I had, which was pretty damn much because I was pretty close to coming in her mouth, and I pulled her off my dick.

I tried not to look at her face as I quickly put my trousers in order and lifted her off her feet. I hoped only a few people saw me because I don't know how I would explain why I was carrying my secretary up to a room after a wild night of partying.

I entered the first room I saw and I was mortified to see Annabeth and Percy seemingly trying to make more children. They were so into it they didn't even notice me. I quickly backtracked and went to the furthest room from the stairs.

Once I was through the door, I walked into the bathroom but before I could set her down properly, Thalia puked all over the front of my shirt and on her dress. She groaned slightly as she stood on her feet but I directed her to the toilet and held her hair over the basin as she emptied her guts.

By this point, most of the alcohol haze was clear from my brain so I took off my shirt and Thalia's dress, trying not to get too turned on by her in her lacy underwear and I carried her into the bed where she promptly passed out. I noticed the time and groaned, 5 AM. I was going to be shattered tomorrow but regardless, with that thought. I fell asleep.

THALIA

I regretted it the moment I opened my eyes. The curtains were closed so there was no sun but I still had a killer headache. I looked around the strange room and suddenly panicked. Where was I? Who was I with last night?

At that point, I noticed I was lying on top of someone, I peeked at this person from underneath my eyelashes and was surprised but immensely relieved to find that it was Nico Di Angelo lying beneath me. I tried to move but I noticed his arm was wrapped around my waist tightly, so I couldn't move.

The last thing I noticed was I was only in my underwear, "Did we have sex again last night?" I tried squirming away but it only seemed to wake him up.

"You know I have a wonderful view of your breasts from up here" I blushed furiously.

"Could you tell me why I am naked and on top of you?" I asked.

"Firstly, you're only three quarters naked; if you were fully naked I would know. Secondly the story for why you're three quarters naked is for another time. Thirdly, you're really horny when you're drunk. Fourthly at some point during the night you climbed on top of me and I didn't have the heart to push you off. So here you are, still straddling me.

I suddenly became aware of that and blushed madly at what he said. I tried to slip off him but his arm around my waist held me in place.

He smiled slowly, "I never said I had a problem with you straddling me did I?"

"I need to get home Nico, plus I have a head ache so I will not be straddling you much longer." I pushed myself off his body and clambered unsteadily, off the bed.

I looked round the room slowly, trying to ignore my headache but when I didn't find what I was looking for, I turned back Nico and found him paying attention to the areas of my body below my head. I snapped my fingers at him twice, "Hey, lover boy, up here."

He raked his eyes slowly up to my face and answered with a lazy smile and voice, "Yes Thalia?"

I blushed but kept my voice straight, "Where are my clothes."

"You puked all over them and all over my shirt too."

I groaned, "Was I that bad?"

He smiled but didn't give me an answer. He lifted himself out of his bed and over to the bathroom. I noticed he was in nothing but boxers. He went through a cabinet at the back of the bathroom and grabbed a couple of clothes.

He walked back out and gave them to me. "This is the best I can do for now. I'll be done changing in ten and then I'll take you home." My stomach chose that moment to grumble loudly.

He looked down between us and smiled, "Maybe I'll take you for breakfast too." I made to argue with him but he captured my mouth in a chaste kiss that made my knees turn to jelly and my thoughts to incoherent jargons. He really was too good at that.

"No buts" he murmured as he pushed me towards the bathroom.

I was so dazed by the kiss that I let him push me into the bathroom and shut the door behind me. He shouldn't be able to have this effect.

What on earth was happening to me?
