"Oh my gods Will!" Nico complained as Will dragged him onto a basketball court. "How many times do I have to tell you? I suck at basketball!"

"C'mon sunshine!" Will urged, shoving him towards the middle of the court. "It'll be fun!"

"I'm not even dressed for it." Nico grumbled. It was true; he was still wearing his black aviator jacket and jeans.

"You'll be fine." Will assured him.

"I don't want to play with the other Apollo scum!" Nico protested. Will rolled his eyes.

Soon enough, the game began, and turns out Nico didn't suck at basketball as much as he had initially thought. In fact, he was quite skilled at the sport.

After the game, Nico collapsed on the grass, his throat parched and sweat dripping down his face.

"See? Wasn't so bad." Will said, sitting next to him.

"I need water." Nico croaked. He'd never felt this dehydrated since... ever?

"Where's the waterboy? Shouldn't he be bringing water around?" He demanded. "I need the waterboy!"

"Hey now wait a minute," A new voice entered the scene, and automatically Nico knew he had made a mistake calling for the waterboy.

In came Percy Jackson, holding a tray full of plastic cups. Water sloshed inside the cups, as if personally teasing Nico.

"Nico di Angelo," Percy said slowly. "calling for the waterboy?"

Pause.

"I THOUGHT WATERBOYS WEREN'T YOUR TYPE!"

"oh my GODS"
