Well here's chapter two, I'm working on some updates and chapter fourteen for Leico- I've Known You My Whole Life, I decided on New Years First Date as the theme thing :D

It had been a couple weeks since Jason and Percy had brought up the whole 'why not go out with Valdez,' thing which scared Nico a bit. That morning Percy handed him an envelope and told him to give it to Leo as soon as possible, usually he refused to give other people things but Percy and Jason weren't one who took no for an answer.

When he got to the workshop he paused at the door where he heard a conversation between Leo and a chick, he was pretty sure her name was Nyssa or something around there, he wasn't totally sure.

The girl slammed her hands on the table were Leo was working and spoke: "You need to stop following that Royal around, you know you'll never date him ergo you'll never be in that group."

Leo pressed his lips together and glanced to the side for a moment as if he was trying to think of something. "You don't know, we never know... So shut up and let me do what I want, alright?"

By the time it got that far Nico had enough, he didn't like how that girl was just downplaying Leo at the moment, so he moved over to them and sat the envelope in front of Leo, cast a glance at the girl before speaking. "Here, I'm pretty sure it's a party invitation."

The Latino blinked and looked at Nico, raising an eyebrow. "A party invitation?" Nico gave a small curt nod. The fact that Nico gave the invitation to Leo meant it was a Royal party, which were the best in the school you had to know people to get invited or to get in.

Nico moved away from Leo some before pausing and then looking at the girl. "And, don't pretend to know the Royals just because we all turned you down when you asked us out."

Nyssa stared at him for a moment, a bit shocked. Leo had to cover his mouth because he couldn't stop himself from laughing; he just learned that Nyssa actually tried to get into Royals group which is hilarious.

Nico smiled to himself before waving bye to Leo and heading out of the workshop room.

~o*O*o~

Jason sat on the bench at the pool waiting for Percy to come back up for air. When the raven haired male did he spoke. "Are you sure this party is going to get them together?"

Percy pushed his hair back and floated in place for a moment as he thought. "It should, you know all the good couples all had a small push, like when Luke, and Grover sort of did it to me and Annabeth."

Jason laughed lightly and leaned forward slightly as he thought of something else to say, he soon he thought of something: "True, but we have to keep our fingers crossed."

Percy moved and leaned against the edge of the pool as he and Jason continued their conversation, the whole time they were talking they were talking of their master plan to get Nico and that weird Valdez kid together.

~o*O*o~

After school ended that day, and when all the games and meets were done everyone headed over to Nico's house, aka House of Hades, all of the Royals had their houses named after some Greek god mostly because no one knew the Royals dads real names because their dads went by Greek god's names.

Percy and Jason had set everything up once Nico got home to let them in, after thirty minutes everyone who had been invited started arriving. Nico had settled into his chair that sat in the living room and watched person by person enters his home.

When Leo arrived Jason was the first one to see him, grabbing Percy they went to greet the male that spent most of his time in workshop at school and mostly likely at home too. The Latino male was a bit confused as to why Jason and Percy had pulled him to the side.

Once they were away from Nico they looked at Leo with small grins on their faces, but Percy was the one to talk. "You like Nico, don't you?"

Leo blinked and he laughed a bit. "No! Err... That's ridiculous!" He paused for a moment and looked at them for a moment before his eyes darted to the floor. "Okay...Maybe..."

Jason grinned. "Perfect, you'd like to date him yes?" Leo gave a small curt nod, the blond continued. "We're going to play truth or dare in like five minutes but once me or Percy dare you everything will be perfect." The Latino processed what Jason said for a moment before he nodded.

~o*O*o~

Five minutes passed and Jason kept true to his word they all gathered around Nico's chair, since he refused to move, and began. There were dares that varied from posting things online, to making out, to messing something up in Hades' Mansion (Nico was pissed because later he'd have to clean it up.) The Truth's varied from who someone likes, to things that should have been kept a secret.

When Percy got to Leo, he flashed a quick grin to the Latino before starting. "Leo...Truth or Dare?"

Leo pressed his lips together for a moment, and then answered. "Eh, dare."

There were some murmurs before Percy held up his hand and dished out his dare: "Alright I dare you to find the cutest male, sit on his lap, and kiss 'em."

There was a collective gasp as everyone looked around quickly wondering what was happening considering Percy never gave dares like that, Nico had sat up in his chair and looked at Percy with a slight glare.

Leo's face turned a light pink color before he moved slightly and sat beside Nico, he stared at his lap for a moment. After he took in a deep breath he placed a hand on the others face, leaned his head to the side and placed a chaste kiss on Nico's lips.

Nico's face began to burn a bit as Leo moved away from him completely, he felt awkward so he stood up really quick. "Ah, pizza anyone?" Without waiting for an answer Nico stood and moved out of the room quickly to order pizza.

Jason and Percy were grinning ear to ear, this was good enough, and this could start something. If the two needed another push they'd certainly provide it but not now they had to see where that kiss headed.
