Yo wasup!

Ok not for me but hi!

Chapter 2 of high school yaaaaaaay!

Here ya go.

-Percy's POV-

The boy was so hot. He had bumped into me and called me jackass earlier today and that told me he was probably straight. But he had the greatest looks on a guy I could have hoped for.

His name is Nico Di' Angelo. He and I have all our classes together. I could not have been any happier.

I had decided to show Nico around and we got as close as a wolf and a dog in a small room together. Well, not that close but still.

Then the kids in homeroom had hurt his feelings when they called him a faggot. I felt bad for him. I wanted to wrap my arms around him and have all those cruel comments that flew out of those losers' mouths thrown at me. But then I had thought of something. If they were calling him a fag, doesn't that mean he's gay!?

I wanted to talk to him, but he stared straight in front of him, daggers in his eyes pointed to the midpoint of the head of the boy who sat in front of Nico, and hadn't spoken a word all day. So I stared at him.

When the bell rang, he gathered his belongings and rushed out of class before I could reach him. Instead, Annabeth came up to me and started flirting with me. I had no interest, but I had to go with it so no one would hurt me too.

"Hey beautiful, how's your day?" she smiled.

"Wonderful so far." I told her cheerfully.

"Hey, who was that boy you were talking to earlier?" she questioned.

Oh no, busted. I thought.

"No one, just a guy I was assigned to show around the school."

"Mhmm." She hummed.

"What?" I said.

"Just making sure you aren't going gay on me Percy. Not like that boy."

This got me mad but I had to stay cool. "Listen Annabeth, I have to get to my next class. I'll see you later."

She waved me off. "Bye Percy."

I took the shortcut to chemistry and found Nico with his hood over a bent head, trying not to listen to the boys who were slapping his arms and calling him names.

Nico had a ring around his left eye that made him look so much more vulnerable. It showed how Nico could be broken more easily than anyone else because of how skinny he is.

A sophomore took it one step further by punching Nico on the chest. Nico crashed to the floor and stopped breathing for a while before sitting up and coughing, looking at the group.

"What are you going to do now angel? Are you going to cry?" the sophomore said.

Nico stood up and tried to put his hands in his jacket, but another kid grabbed him and threw him to the floor, pinning his neck with his sneaker. "Gimme your money kid." He demanded.

Nico breathed in and out, closed his eyes and disappeared.

The group gasped. "Where'd he go?" the boy who had pinned Nico down said.

All the boys shrugged.

"You better find him before the end of the day." He pointed at them with a scowl on his face.

"Luke, none of us have any of his classes." A blonde pale boy said.

Luke cursed. "Octavian," he said to the blonde, "do you know anyone with his classes?"

Octavian thought for a moment. "Percy Jackson. He has all of that punks' classes."

Luke smiled. "Great! And I think I have P.E with him. Now let's get going." He snarled at the group.

They turned down a corner laughing at how Nico looked when he fell.

I couldn't believe I had just watched that and didn't do anything about it.

The bell rang and I rushed to class. Nico sat in the back of the class with his head down. His shoulders sagging down low.

I walked over to him and hovered my hand just above his back.

"What do you want?" Nico said. His voice muffled by the fabric of his jacket.

I dropped my hand down to my side. "Nothing, I guess." I sat down in the seat next to him.

The morning went by like a snap of fingers and soon it was lunch for me and Nico. For others it was a different class.

I didn't grab anything to eat because after what I had seen earlier, I lost my appetite.

Neither did Nico.

I wanted to know what raced in his head that made him feel the way he feels. I wanted to literally take his burden off his shoulders so he could smile for once. But I couldn't. Not unless Nico wanted my attention. Which he clearly didn't. So I left him alone.

Nico didn't look any better than he did before lunch.

He had tear marks on his cheeks when school was over. Kids poured out of the building, giving him an advantage of losing me. I wanted to speak to him so I rushed outside and searched for him.

I saw shaggy black hair before I knew it. I ran for my life to him, dodging any kiddies that were in my path. Although I did hit one or two, I made it to where he stood less than 10 seconds ago, but he was long gone.

I struggled to catch my breath. I really needed to work out more. Even though I did every morning.

Realizing Nico must have run home to get away from me for whatever reason, I headed a different direction and walked home discouraged.

When I got to my apartment, I slid the keys from under the welcome mat and opened the door.

"Mom I'm home." I called out.

"Oh I'll be right there dear." A woman's voice came from the bathroom.

I set my keys in a basket next to the door and kicked off my blue converse.

"Dinner's in the fridge honey!" Mom said.

I walked into the kitchen across the living room and opened the refrigerator. A plate of roast beef and rice dyed blue was wrapped in tin foil. I grabbed it and warmed it up in the microwave.

When the microwave dinged, I carefully took the plate and sat down at the table alone.

I wasn't hungry, but I had to eat for my mom.

The TV in the living room turned on and my mom flipped through the millions of channels we have. She stopped on Arrow and Gotham, deciding which reality she wanted. She settled for Gotham.

On my way upstairs, I glanced at Mom's sleeping form and draped a blanket over her.

Once in my room, My head flowed with images of Nico. How beautiful he was. How he made my heart speed up every time he looked at me with those dark chocolate brown eyes, bangs falling over them. I wanted to take him with me far away and kiss him like we were the only ones left.

I sighed and stripped for a shower.

Only this time, the water gave me an image of the pool with Nico and I in front of the door at school.

I smiled closing my eyes and leaned against the cold tile wall. I guess you could say I was lovesick.

Yay chapter 2 *smiles weakly* It's so late over here

My sisters want to keep watching Zootopia on my laptop so I have to go.

My mom is yelling at me to do it for them before they cry their fat heads off

Honestly, if you have a brother, you're lucky

If not, review and tell me otherwise.

Ciao é buona notte

Bye and goodnight
