I do not own theses charater (wish I did)

Annabeth pov

I felt so nervous; It was a new school, new start. I wouldn't be the brian box, and be excluded, at least I hope not? These were the thoughts that were running through my head on that Monday morning that was my first day of school. I have to admit after being introduced to Thalia I felt better though.

Thalia had bright electric blue eyes and black choppy hair that fell lightly on her shoulders. Wearing all black; with solid eyeliner that made her eyes pop out made a me feel a little intimidated. But once she smiled I relaxed.

"So you're the new girl?... Annabeth isn't it?"

I nodded in response.

"Cool." she smiled. As she said this a hansom guy came up behind her, putting his arms around her waist. He kissed her temple

"Hey babe, who's this?"The guy that was hugging Thalia looked at me with a grin. He had blonde hair and blue eyes, with a cheeky air about him, wearing black geans and a plain t-shirt that showed off his muscles.

We started a friendly conversation. I found out that the guys name was Luke. They told me that after lunch they would show me round the school. As I was new I had come in half way through the day, so i didn't know many people.

After a couple minuets a boy wearing all black walked towards us. He had dark eyes slightly covered by dark hair. As he approached I noticed he was very tan and skinny; he was absent-minded was twisting a skull ring around his long finger.

nodding in acknowledgement to Thalia and Luke, he turned to me gaving me a curious look.

"Oh Nico this is Annabeth Chase, Annabeth this is Nico D'Angalo."

I smiled at Nico and he nodded politely. A few seconds later an average looking guy with curly hair came up to us. He had teenage acne and baseball cap. With a boyish grin, he looked at me

"Sooo... Your the Annabeth"

I smiled at him "The Annabeth?"

Luke joined in," Yer you moved here because your to cleaver for your own good" Luke did a mock salute ginning at me.

"well that's why I'm here" I laughed playing along, bowing to Luke in turn. Everyone laughed. I didn't know what it was but I felt comfortable around these guys. Not excluded or laughed at, just accepted and laughed with.

The other boy turned to the rest of the group,

"There's no point waiting for Perce he's training"

Everyone grinned like this was an inside joke, I looked around trying to understand it. But before I could catch any ones eye, Luke spoke up

"Common guys let have lunch."

Luke grinned and lead the way his arm casually around Thalia's waist.

We entered the messhall and got our meals, sitting down and having a relaxed conversation, I started to get to know them a bit better and they started to with me too. Thalia was not at all like her looks portrayed, she was really kind and friendly. I had the suspicion though that if she didn't like you or you pissed her off then you were in a dangerous situation.

Luke seemed really down-to-earth and pure, He had a real cheeky air about him that made him good company.

I didn't get much on Nico as he hardly said anything just picked at his food with his long fingers.

I did like Gorver he was very sweet, and whenever he got nervous he started to chew anything that was around, him mostly his clothes.

We were half way through finishing our meals when Luke's phone rang, he quickly answered it before a teacher could spot him.

"Hey Perce... Yer ... Look Perce I don't care, you can't ditch school for practise again... I don't care is the school supports you... Awwww common man... Fine but you better be here tomorrow... Yer we'll come and see you after." Luke hung up the phone annoyance playing on his face.

"Is he seriously ditching on us again?" Thalia raised a comical eyebrow.

Nico saw the expression on my face and answered my unspocken question,

"It's swimming you should see him it's all he does."

"hey you could come with us after school if you wanted Annabeth?" Thalia smiled at her.

"yer sure why not" Annaeth grinned around at her newly found friends feeling happy.
