《Demigods Meet Mortals》Anna Chen (Nico di Angelo)
Advertisement
Nico di Angelo, his name seems so... magical. He's so magical, mysterious, and just perfect. Perfect people need perfect girlfriends, and I'm that girl for Nico. He's dark and mysterious, and I'm bubbly and open, like they say, opposite attracts. And I just know that he's going to ask me to the Valentines Ball that is hosted in honor of Eros, the Greek god of love. And in case you don't know, the Greek gods revealed themselves, I know, shocking, and apparently they have kids too. I might even be friends with one of them and I never knew.
Anyway, as I was saying, I know that Nico is going to ask me to the ball, maybe after school, the ball is tomorrow. Even though it might be last minute, I don't really care. And oh! There's my gorgeous knight, and one of my best friends, Nico Di Angelo.
I was walking towards him when a more than hot boy walked to Arabella Maxwell, horrible girl, heard from her ex best friend, Joanne, that she was such a player, and she still is, but it's annoying how guys fall for her just because of her good looks, I won't be surprised if he ask her to be his girlfriend, even though they don't even know each other's names. But that's not what happened. 'Uh, hey. I'm Will, and do you mind telling me where locker 165 is?' I was surprised, wasn't that Nico's locker number? Arabella looked annoyed but showed him the way. And I was watching.
This Will character smiled when he saw Nico putting his school books into his locker and went up behind Nico, a smile on his face, closing the locker door, he covered Nico's eyes, 'Guess who.' I was pretty sure Nico was going to hit him or something, but instead, he smiled. Nico di Angelo, smiled. This is nuts, he never smile. Never. But he did.

'Hey Will, you know that I know it's you. So give up. Neither you or Jason's gonna win the bet.' Will removed his hands from Nico's eyes and pouted, to which Nico scowled at, but seemed to blush slightly to. Strange.
'Well anyway, let's just head to camp, the gods want to let us know what to do in case of getting revealed.' Nico nodded and the two walked out. I was confused with what Will said, gods? Obviously, I followed them out the school and immediately blushed. Nico's head was on Will's shoulder and they were holding hands. 'Shadow travel?' Nico asked, Will shook his head, smiling. I walked up to the duo and cleared my throat.
'Sorry to interrupt, but I was wondering what you meant by shadow travel, I overheard, sorry.' Will's eyes widened, but Nico didn't even blink. 'I was wondering when you would ask, you were staying back there for quite a while.' I was shocked.
'Nico di Angelo, son of Hades. And this is my boyfriend, Will Solace, son of Apollo.' I nodded and walked away, dazed, and that was the day that I found out that the love of my life was more than he seemed, and that he was taken.
