Author's Note: Hey guys! Thanks for stumbling in on my precious little story. Had this idea for a while now, putting the pen to paper figuratively at last. Hope you enjoy the first chapter, and don't forget to R&R :D

To say he wasn't nervous was sort of an understatement. His bus rolled up into the college campus, the big purple and orange banner strung from two lamp-posts, reading "Welcome Freshmen!" As the bus doors slid open, the messy-haired teen shouldered his duffel bag and rolled his suitcase off the vehicle. He was swamped with colors and sounds as soon as he stepped down - signs showing registration, older students and teacher aids handing out flyers and promoting various clubs. His eyes glanced over some of the stalls, but he realized he'd have to time to sort all this stuff out soon enough. First, to register and find out his roommate.

That was the bit he was most nervous about. As an only child, he was used to having his own space. Having to share a room with someone - and a complete stranger at that - was the worst thing he could think of. Oh, well. His mom had always been telling him how it will be a 'good experience' for him. That is, between choking out sobs as she tried not to lose her cool again. Honestly, there was Skype and texting and phones - he was going to college, not to the end of time! Speaking of time, he checked his watch quickly and decided to stop dawdling as he went to the registration. Only to find a queue a mile long, filled with freshmen in the same boat as him. Well maybe if he ju-

He was cut off mid-thought by a flurry of blonde hair pushing into him. When he regained his wits he turned, about to tell off whatever guy hit into him, just to see it was a girl. More than a girl - a woman. Her blonde hair curled around her face and her grey eyes made him want to know everything about her. He realized she had dropped some paper, so he hunched down the same time as she did, so they knocked foreheads slightly.

"I-i'm so sorry, I tripped and I-" she rambled nervously, her cheeks and neck tinted a light pink as she scrabbled at the papers. He picked one up for her and spotted her name on it. "It's no problem." he said with an easy smile.

She flushed a bit more and stuck out her hand for him to shake. "I'm A-"

"Annabeth." he finished for her, shaking her hand and giving her back the sheet. "I'm Perseus Jackson."

Well, Leo wasn't so sure about this. I mean, college? That meant partying, and he was totally cool with all of that. But coming from an under privileged area, and going to a school like this? Geez, even the pavement looked expensive. The Latino boy had said goodbye to his mother at the airport, taking a one-way flight from Texas to Olympia, WA. So he arrived alone, a bit too early, and got registered almost immediately. He had gotten some food, found his dorm room, and called his mother to assure her he hadn't died. His roommate hadn't arrived yet, but it really wasn't that big of a deal. Leo lived in foster care for a while after his mother went unstable, so strangers weren't that new to him.

He had unpacked most of his stuff, clothes sorted neatly enough into half of the closet and his bed was made up. No posters or anything, but he had brought his toolbox and some things to tinker with until he got his hands on a project. He heard a click at the door, and did a very quick check over - Hair? Still there. Face? Clean enough. Clothes? Not pressed, but clean. Breath? Okay, don't get too close to this guy.

What Leo wasn't expecting was a girl with short, cropped black hair to walk in. A bright blue streak decorated the front and she wore a leather jacket and boots. She looked like she could be fierce enough, but she carried a present in her hands so it sort of changed Leo's perspective on her.

"Jas? Oh, you're not Jason." she said, and Leo resisted to say 'Yes, obviously. Who are you?,' but instead let her come to that conclusion on her own. "A blonde guy hasn't come through here? No? Alright - I'm Thalia by the way. Your roommate's -" she said, but stopped speaking as the handle turned.

The door opened and Leo was greeted with the sight of a tall blonde guy with broad shoulders and eyes to match Thalia's. He barely noticed Leo and gave Thalia a hug. "Thals, so good to see you!" he said, and saw Leo. "Oh, hey. You must be Leo. I'm Jason Grace." he said, shaking Leo's hand.

He disappeared outside for a second only to return with his bags, as Thalia set her present down at the foot of the bed. "Okay, I have to go - getting a new roommate today. I'll see you guys around." she said, giving Jason a peck on the cheek before leaving. Leo wondered how they could look so alike and yet still be that close.

"Thalia's a sophomore, you see." Jason said. "She's not as tough as she looks."

"How did you guys meet?" Leo asked politely, rummaging through the drawers trying to find a hoodie. The Texan wasn't used to the chill of Washington.

"She's my sister, dude." Jason said, cracking a smile and letting out a laugh. Leo joined in, glad that his roommate didn't suck.

"My mistake, my mistake. I'm starving - wanna head down for some grub?" Leo asked, and Jason nodded as they headed down to the canteen.

This was sort of rushed, but the chapters will only contain about 2 to 3 POVs, don't like writing chapters that are too long. Open to suggestions if you want to see anything in particular! :D
