AN: I just LOVED One Direction's "Fool's Gold" (am not a Directioner, but still) and I just can't help myself! So...this is what you call a "song fic" I think. So..hope you enjoy! and if you haven't heard of that song, I suggest you do.

Disclaimer: Obviously, I didn't create the whole PJO world. Duh. Also, I didn't do the cover. I got tired to do an art and stuff. I got the cover from google. :)

The students had warned him about a girl named 'Annabeth Chase'.

First day of school is always stressing. And being the 'newbie' [again] in the school, he was warned to stay away from a lot of people: Bryan, the guy who cuts people's hair for fun; Klarissa, the buff chick who beats up almost everybody; Kazim, the weird girl who murmurs ninety-seven percent of the time; Queen, the quintessential of a 'school slut'; Hunter, the archetypal 'school heartthrob' and 'bad boy' that is actually really bad; and etc.

Percy tried desperately to remember all of them, (because he's been to a lot of school's and not listening to the warnings costed him-a few times, it was even the reason of him being kicked out), but when a girl in his History class warned him about a girl named 'Annabeth Chase' and why she should be avoided, all of the other warnings became blurry.

The girl in History, Jenny, told him that Annabeth Chase was

"-a straight A student, super smart, cunning, always always a major perfectionists about things, and...you could say she's a bit...pretty." she said the last part, grudgingly.

At that description, Percy didn't understand why she's to be afraid of. So, he asked. The answer that came wasn't very helpful.

"She's a player." Jenny said, resulting a raised eyebrow from the still clueless guy she's talking to. Percy didn't see the difference from the description of this 'Annabeth' girl and Queen the 'school slut'. Speaking from experience,when there are two 'school slut's, they would be best friends, or the other one would be a background tramp for the other. But this girl who apparently was a straight A student, didn't seem to fit being Queen's BFF or lap dog. "She dates guys and breaks up with them for fun. She's not like Queen, because Queen is more of a 'fling' kind of girl and when she does date, she gets some action in return. But Annabeth. She's-she's just pure evil. She's crazy. Stay away from her."

Intrigued and still not satisfied, Percy asked about her to some friends he'd earned for his first day.

"Don't be fooled by her. She's annoyingly wise and all that shit. She can make you jump off a building without doing any dirty work. She's wicked." Ian, whom he had met in Bio, said"And if that's not enough to make you scared, this guy, Brody, peed himself when he received the end of Annabeth's glare,one time."

"She's scary." Cassidy, Ian's little sister of one year, shivered.

"Annabeth's a bitch." Ron from Math class sneered. "We dated for a few weeks last year, and then she dumped me just a few hours before Junior Prom!" He then on continued cursing about her until the girl next to him, Daniel, hit him on the head with her Math book.

She looked at me. "Annabeth's not a bitch. Ron here is just saying that because he didn't get to do what he wanted with her."

Ron scowled. "She lead me on! She's the devil in flesh!" he looked at me dead in the eye. "Stay away from her. She might take interest in you. She likes new people; new things; things and people out of the ordinary. You, being the new kid, will surely attract her snake-like eyes."

"She's the most beautiful girl you'll ever see." Fiona from Art said wistfully.

"She'd cut you in half-emotionally and phisically." Aaron from PE said. "Who knows what goes on in that girl's head."

"I think she's hot." Jeff said coming up beside Aaron, resulting in Aaron shoving him toward the field.

Meanwhile, in Chemistry, he heard a single constant chatter behind him. It had been going on for most of the time in class. He turned and saw a girl looking at her desk mumbling non-stop. With a start, he realized that it was the girl they warned him about. What's her name, again? he thought. Karmen? No. Kris? Nah. Oh! Kazim!

"Hey," he smiled at the dark-haired girl behind him. Kazim looked up with a shocked expression. She stared at him with wide eyes before looking back down and continued mumbling. "Okay then.." he said under his breath, turning back to the board.

He then heard a voice beside him say, "She's just like that to everyone. Don't worry."

When he looked at the girl who said that, his breath caught. She was beautiful. No, he thought. She's gorgeous. Her hair was in a high, tight ponytail. Mesmerizing golden locks curled like a princess's. For a moment, Percy thought that she might be one. Her back was straight, not slouching like almost every teenager in the room. Her legs stretched out, but her ankles were elegantly crossed. The entirety of her posture made her look out of place in such a place like high school. Even her clothes didn't quite fit. The girl was sporting a collarless button up under a black cardigan and a very tight skirt-much to Percy's likeness. Though, everything about her was different, her eyes were what really got him doubling over. Her eyes were steel gray, like the color of the sky in an upcoming storm. He caught himself staring and told himself to stop even if the girl didn't seem to even notice him. The girl was studiously copying the notes on the blackboard onto her notebook. Percy didn't think she even glanced at him when she said her last sentence.

"Oh, okay." he said, still looking at the blonde. "I'm a new student here. My name's Percy."

The girl continued listening to the teacher. He decided that she hadn't heard him at all. He just tried to do the same and listen to the teacher-desperately failing, he gave up after a few times attempting the impossible task.

"Annabeth," the girl suddenly said, not looking up from her notebook. Percy's head shot up to her direction. "My name's Annabeth."

Annabeth. Annabeth Chase?

Before, he could open his mouth to say something (probably ridiculous and irrelevant), the bell rang. The girl-Annabeth shot up from her seat and walked out of the classroom, along with the rest of his classmates, leaving him slightly stunned in the empty room.

After he got out of his state, he went out of the room and into the loud, bustling halls.

She's Annabeth? he thought. She can't be. Can she? Well, she surely is beautiful. And she looks smart...she doesn't look like a player, though. No, she can't be Annabeth. Ron said she'd take a liking to me, because I was new. But that girl barely even glanced at me. She couldn't be. Right?

All these thoughts ran through his head in a matter of seconds. He felt weird. Why would he be thinking so much about this. This isn't even important. He should be getting to his next class; that's what he should be doing. So, that's what he did. He saw her in the halls a couple more times but, like in Chem class, she didn't even glance at him. At least, as far as he knows. But mostly for the rest of the school day, he didn't give the girl with the definitely-not-snake-like eyes a second thought. He didn't dwell any further on why he was even thinking about the blonde. He kept it tucked away at the back of his head like he did with the other 'warnings' his new found friends gave to him. He didn't wonder why felt attracted to the girl that seemed out of place. When he came back home, he ate a microwaved pizza and drank out of the milk carton, he plopped down on the couch and watched Disney like all the kids at heart before he fell asleep with the TV on, causing his mother who had a late shift at work to wake him up at the middle of the night and told him to go to his bed.

At morning, when he wake up and finally had the strength for his mind to work, he realized the answer to the question of why he was some-what attracted to the gray-eyed girl-besides that the girl was completely flawless. He thought back on the shameful moments when he was at the principal's office of his old schools, of when his mother scolded him endlessly in whole afternoons before running an errand, of some times when he had blood dripping out of his mouth while looking at another figure with similar injuries. He thought of the real reason why he always got in trouble at his old schools, of how he never backed down on a fight, of how he liked them.

Percy Jackson longed for challenges.

Annabeth Chase was definitely a challenge worth of his time.
