Chapter 1

Annabeth

My name is Annabeth Chase. I live in San Francisco but my dad got a job offer in New York so my Family had to move there (My dad, my step mom, Helen, and my step twin brothers, Bobby and Matthew). I have blonde princess curls, a Californian tan, and stormy grey eyes. I am pretty smart and I love architecture. My dream college is Harvard University because of their great architecture program.

Today is my first day and I am attending Goode High. I don't know anyone there and to make my situation better it is the middle of January so I am the new girl.

I wake up and 6:45 because school starts at 8:00 and I don't wear make-up so I don't take a while to get ready in the morning. I got out of bead when into the bathroom and took a quick shower. After I came out I put on dark blue skinny jeans, a grey Hollister sweater, my favorite owl earrings, and my grey uggs with the bows on the back of my legs.

I walk downstairs and my step mom Helen is making breakfast.

She says cheerfully "You look nice Annabeth, are you excited for your first day?"

My step mom and I weren't as close as we are now. We started to be this close two years ago. When my dad and her first got married she treated me like I was dirt. She didn't want me commuting with her children. My dad didn't defend me, I am his only daughter but I am over it now. Oh, and by the way my mom died when I was 7 in a car crash.

"Thanks mom" I reply just a cheerfully ""Yeah, I am very excited, but mostly for my architecture class that I am taking"

She hands me my breakfast and says "Ooh that does sound exciting, have a good first day"

I kiss her on the cheek and start to walk to Goode High
