The Leak Chapter 1: Hashtag Percabeth, a percy jackson and the olympians fanfic

CHAPTER 1

Hashtag Percabeth

MAY 1, 2017

Monday

Percy Jackson was fucked.

And by fucked, he meant really fricking, fucking fucked.

He was just right there, actually lying on his bed, playing video games in his smartphone, until a chat head from the Facebook Messenger app popped up at the screen while he was playing Contest of Champions. His best friend; Grover, had sent him a message.

He removed his glasses and cleaned them first before opening the message.

Grover Underwood: dude. open your fb feed. youre not gonna like this

Of course, Percy was pissed, Grover chatting him while his Spider-Man's ass is getting kicked is pretty annoying, especially since the enemy had a Ronan, Wolverine and a Deadpool. Annoyed, Percy quit the game and replied to Grover's message.

Percy Jackson: WTF man. You let me lose a battle in MCOC.

He patiently (angrily) waited for Grover's reply until almost several friends of his on Facebook, particularly students of Goode High, spammed him with messages.

Thals Grace: Sweet confession, lover boy. See you tomorrow at school, cuz.

Piper McLean: OMG, PERCY. This is going to change everything! :D

Nico Deathkid: i had no part to play in this, percy. dont kill me!

Luke Castellan: Niiiiice, Percy. if you get together with her, you better help me with Thalia

Leo Valdez: IT WAS HIS IDEA, not mine! That said, hope you survive school tomorrow.

Percy didn't understand any of it, at first. It looked like random rambling from his friends, but hearing from somebody like Piper McLean, was weird. He was friends with her alright, but not as close as Thalia; his cousin, and Luke, Leo, and Nico. And the fact Grover was acting strange, Percy was now eager in awaiting his reply.

It only took a minute until Grover finally did.

Grover Underwood: OPEN YOUR DAMN FB FEED and FIND JASON'S NEW POST. ITS A VIDEO

Percy immediately dropped his phone, and raced to his laptop. Most days, he didn't mind waiting for it to start, but seeing the Windows 10 logo form in his eyes was (for) now, really annoying. He wanted to get to the bottom of all this, and fast.

He opened Google Chrome, typed , and scrolled for posts.

It was then, that he saw it. A post from Jason Grace. Jason had posted a 2-minute long video, tagging two persons, namely one Percy Jackson, and Annabeth Chase. The caption of the video, read #Percabeth.

Percy's heart had skipped a beat, terror now running in his veins, he slowly moved the mouse cursor to the play button of the video, and played it.

The video was actually him, Nico, Grover, Leo and Jason at Jason's house, playing Monopoly on a table in Jason's room. Jason couldn't be seen, so that meant he was holding his camera; his cellphone. Percy remembered this day, and it was just two days ago, which was Saturday. They were playing and having fun, with a few taunts from the rest of the group about his crush, resident genius Annabeth Chase. They were teasing him until he finally exploded, and admit to all of them, that he has been in love with Annabeth Chase since 8th grade.

His confession of his crush had leaked.

Percy didn't know this was filmed, and was now mixed with anger and fear.

Now everybody knew, and everybody saw. He looked at the post itself. 384 reactions, mostly likes, "Haha's" and one "Wow".

Annabeth Chase and 383 others, it said, Annabeth Chase herself being the only "Wow".

Now he understood, and knew...

that he was fucked.

Three Days Earlier

Percy had been listening to Annabeth Chase's speech in front of the class about the film The Shawshank Redemption. His stepfather, Paul, or Mr. Blofis in English class, had given them the assignment of researching one film, and making a speech about the deep themes of that film. As per usual, Annabeth had chosen a drama film, and he looked at his own work at his desk, and he was going to give a speech about Guardians of the Galaxy.

"When Andy Dufresne escaped Shawshank, he proceeded to..."

Annabeth freaking Chase.

It didn't help that Percy thought she looked a lot like a princess, or the fact she was so pretty a man could faint from her smile, or the fact she was so smart, and was of course, going to be the valedictorian in their year. It was a sure win.

Percy himself was smart, one of the best in their year, but of course, nowhere near as smart as the Annabeth Chase. His grades were high, he was good at Math, and to top it all off, he wore glasses. He was always a close second behind Annabeth Chase, and that was exactly the reason he fell for her.

It had always been like that, Annabeth Chase as the first, and Perseus Jackson as the second, and countless times during awarding ceremonies, they'd stand together on stage, saying "Goode is good!". Percy had actually met her during 7th grade, on their first awarding ceremony, and maybe he grew fond of her, as she was always nice to everybody, including him. It didn't take long before Annabeth became popular, and Percy would have a crush on her, knowing she was always acing decathlons, winning contests, and being a good volleyball player.

No, Percy was waaaay out of her league. Percy was the scrawny, "nerd-ish", messy black-haired kid who was a total nerd, being really smart, and addicted to video games and movies. He was a hopeless boy with a hopeless crush.

Of course, he'd tell all of his guy friends about Annabeth, and they would always tease him, even his cousin Thalia, who was one of Annabeth's best friends. Even the usual small talk with Annabeth in school felt like torture, knowing someone like her would never go out with someone like him.

It was not the way things worked.

It would go on like that. Small talk with Annabeth like "can I borrow your pen?", and she wouldn't even reply a single word to him, just nod or something. He'd always be staring at her at the hallways, and never in class because he was at the front row and Annabeth was two rows behind. Annabeth doesn't even glance at Percy. Sometimes Percy thinks Annabeth knows of his crush on her, and that secretly, Annabeth hates or is disgusted by him and is just too nice to say it.

Those things just fueled Percy's paranoia. Maybe it was true.

But oh man, he can't help but hope.

He was daydreaming while listening to her, and it was going to continue like that until Jason nudged him at his left.

"Psst. I've got some goods." Jason said, winking at him.

"What in Hades' name does that mean?" Percy whispered back, with utter annoyance on his face visible.

"Let's just say, hmm, I've got information that will help you move toward the future." Jason whispered, and winking at him again.

"What. In. The. Heck. Does. That. Mean?!" Percy whispered with strength, and Jason just replied with a simple smirk.

"You'll see. In the next few days, we'll see how it all unfolds."

That confused the heck out of Percy again. Normally, Jason wasn't like this. He was calm, mature and had a sense of leadership. The Jason talking right now acted more like Leo than Jason himself. Yet Percy couldn't get the words he said out of his mind.

I've got information that will help you move toward the future.

Eventually, he knows Jason will crack, so he decides to wait it out. Then again, Jason said another thing.

In the next few days, we'll see how it all unfolds.

Can he really afford to be patient if Jason's "Leo-tude" will unfold in a few days? There's nothing I can do, anyway, he thought, and he had no choice other than to wait. Pushing it upon Jason might make matters even worse, and he thinks it never gets better once Leo was always involved.

"Fine. We'll see how it all 'unfolds." Percy replied, with an accusing look on his face. "By the way, what movie did you research on for the speech?"

"Heh. Alien."

Percy sighed. "Always the horror films."

Saturday

Two Days Earlier

Saturday was the boys' time, of course, and Percy spent the afternoon playing Monopoly with his friends at the Grace residence, with Jason, Grover, Leo and Nico in attendance. They'd just finish a game of Monopoly on the table and were grabbing slices of pizza from the box in the middle of the table that Jason ordered, and they ate in silence as they talked about random things.

Random things, of course, translated into anything.

"So, no one's home, where's your mom and sister?" Nico asked, taking a bite out of the pizza.

"Mom's doing business as usual, and Thalia's with her lady friends and one special boy, having a movie marathon over at Piper's." Jason said, as he too ate some pizza.

They never talked about Jason's father, who was Percy's uncle, who died during an accident at sea along with Percy and Nico's dad. It wasn't much of a sensitive topic, since they all died before their kids were all born, but all of them never really saw a point in talking about their dead fathers. Their dead dads were rich enough that their mothers were capable of handling their kids, having money from their widows.

"Special boy?" Grover asked, until Jason replied immediately.

"Luke, of course. The guy's clearly infatuated with my sister, that he basically flirts and follows her around everywhere. Jesus, it's like he's a puppy now." Jason said as he ate the bit of pepperoni pizza he was holding. "Speaking of girls... how're things with Annabeth, Perce?"

"Shut up, Jason." Percy said as he was munching on his pizza, and that reaction received laughs around the table.

"I mean, c'mon, man. You do have a plan on asking her out, right?" Jason pushed, and he leaned back on his chair and relaxed. "If you don't make a move on her, eventually somebody will."

The others nodded in agreement.

Percy, being Percy, would automatically be jealous, obviously, and he got used to Annabeth being single for almost years that he doesn't know how he would even react if Annabeth had a boyfriend who wasn't him. To be honest, he himself wouldn't have a chance with her anyway, so he decided to play coy with Jason. He was good at playing coy.

"Oh, let them. I'm so over her, anyways." Percy said with such simplicity that the reaction around the table was almost a ruckus.

"What? You can't just give up like that!"

"Spent all the jizz from fapping to her?"

"That's just not hygenic, Leo."

"You're a freaking quitter, my man."

"Scared of a little date?"

It was all rambling and noise until Percy stood up and silenced them all with a simple shout. "Would you all just shut up?!" Everyone heard that, and mumbled to teach other. "Look, I'm over her, okay? That, is final. I might go see other girls."

"Since when have you seen other girls, and if you do see other girls, who're you referring to; Rachel?" Grover asked Percy with a mix of humor and seriousness.

Rachel Elizabeth Dare, or Red, as he calls her, was one of Percy's other best friends in school. To be fair, she wasn't bad, and Percy did kind of have a crush on her back then when she liked to teasingly call him 'Perseus'. But of course, Annabeth Chase distracted him so much he kind of forgot he liked Red in the first place. Still, they hang out from time to time and she was an art person, so her classes aren't the same as his, but they're still BFFs, just not as much as the "boys".

"Red is just one of my best friends, like you guys. And like a real best friend, she doesn't meddle with my love life like you guys." He meant that 'real' part as a joke, and everyone understood, but Leo mumbled something in his breath that Percy couldn't hear.

"Real best friends help each other to get laid. Well, let's face it we're goofballs and nerds so maybe not get laid, but get a girl." Leo added, and he took a bite at his own pizza. "You just won't admit that you're too scared to ask Annabeth out."

"Scaredy-cat."

"Jackson-pees-his-pants."

"Notice me, Annabeth-senpai."

They were mocking him, and Percy was growing redder and redder by the second, until the teasing escalated to new heights, and they were all chanting at him in unison.

"You like Annabeth Chase! You need to get the girl! You like Annabeth Chase, You need to get the girl!"

It kept going on and on like that for a few minutes, that Percy finally burst and let out a really horrendous rant.

"Alright, alright! Yes! I'm in love with Annabeth Chase! OKAY?! I've loved her since 8th grade, and I still love her now! But I'm not gonna do anything about it, because I absolutely have NO FUCKING CHANCE of being with her! Alright?! HAPPY NOW?!"

For a minute, the entire group was silent, scared of Percy's reaction until they all clapped and cheered at him.

"Hooo yeah! That's my man!"

"You're gonna do great, Perce!"

"Percabeth... Percabeth!"

"Now that's the spirit!"

They all continued clapping and commended him, and Percy couldn't help but actually smile. Sure, they were a pain in the ass, sure, they were a bit weird, but they were like his brothers, and Percy loved them for that. Everything was perfect. The night went on, and Percy enjoyed spending time with all of them, a bunch of 11th grades playing games and eating pizza.

Percy almost thought it was one of the best nights of his life.

Little did he know that Jason filmed his entire rant in his cellphone.

MAY 1, 2017

Monday

Present Day

He felt a bit betrayed, betrayed by one of his best friends, Jason. He rewatched the entire thing over, and over, and over again, and the video garnered a lot of attention, 300+ likes and almost a hundred comments from nearly every portion of the school.

That sound pierced even the speakers of his laptop, and he couldn't believe Jason would do something like this.

Jason leaked his confession of his crush to everyone in the school, not just everyone in school, but everyone in the whole wide world.

That was it, officially it. He was fucked, and his life was over. Better hang himself right then and there on his bedroom, and call it quits. Well, he wouldn't do that, but the video of him confessing was really humiliating. He recalled Jason's words to him three days earlier.

In the next few days, we'll see how it all unfolds.

Was this what he meant?

One thing's for sure, he's gonna get that little son of a bitch for this sort of prank, and he would have to face Annabeth Chase tomorrow.

Guess who's back again, peeps! It's me OTPMaker22.
