Hey guys! This is a Thalico story but it starts with some Perlia.
Summary - Thalia dumped Nico, because she was too afraid to admit her feelings too him. Annabeth ran off with Luke. Thalia and Percy got together but Percy hates all the black that Thalia loves. He stops her wearing black and is over protective. He gradually turns her into a bimbo and eventually Thalia has enough.
Disclaimer – I do not own Percy Jackson or any of the other characters.
I stared at myself in the mirror. I couldn't believe what I was looking at. It was me, but not.
My hair was bleached blonde and my clip in extensions fell to my stomach. A pink rose was clipped to the side of my head and my electric blue eyes were masked by the green contacts I was wearing. The fake eyelashes were heavy on my eyes and the glittery eyeliner shimmered in the light. Thick foundation covered my face and my lips were painted with pink lip gloss. Flower earrings, peeked through my hair and my neck was decorated with a silver chain. I was wearing a pink t-shirt and baggy light wash jeans. Silver flip-flops decorated my feet and a hot pink charm bracelet glittered on my wrist that matched the nail varnish I had on.
I sighed to myself, what had I let myself become?
I trudged into the living room where Percy was sitting on the sofa.
'Hey babe' He greeted smiling at me.
'Hey' I nodded, not making any effort.
'You okay?' he asked looking concerned.
'Yeah, just need a shower that's all.' I smiled weakly.
'Ok' Percy smiled back, before turning around and continuing to watch the T.V.
I walked into our bedroom, trying to look calm and shutting the door behind me. I marched over to my wardrobe and pulled the doors open. I reached into the back pulled out my overnight bag. I threw it onto the floor, kicking the lid open. I frowned as I looked into the wardrobe. Bright coloured tops baggy jeans, and tight hot pants stared back at me. High heels and flip flops lay on the wardrobe floor, mocking me. I slammed the wardrobe door shut and walked out of room. Percy was laughing at the T.V and didn't notice me sneak out of our room. I shut the living room door on the way past and snuck up the stairs quietly.
I made my way across the landing and into the spare room. I climbed over the junk that littered the floor and towards the chest of drawers that was against the wall. I pulled the top draw open and pulled out two pairs of black skinny leg jeans. Percy had taken away all of my black clothes when we started going out, he'd shoved them into the chest of draws. We'd started going out when I dumped Nico, and Annabeth ran off with Luke. I don't know why I dumped Nico. He loved me so much and I loved him too, but I was just too scared to admit it too him. I threw away a wonderful relationship just because I couldn't mutter three little words. I reached in and pulled out a few black t shirts, and dug out my converse from the bottom draw. I snuck back downstairs and into the bedroom. I threw the stuff into the overnight bag and zipped it up. After locking the door I headed into the bathroom.
I stood in front of the mirror again and smiled. Soon I would look like me again. I pulled out my extensions out. My hair was a little bit longer than it had been. So I reached into the medicine cabinet and pulled out a pair a scissors. I cut my hair back into its original style and threw the scissors back into the draw. I noticed the makeup wipes lying next to the discarded scissors and pulled the packet out. I used three wipes trying to get the gunk off my face but when I looked into the mirror again I smiled. I was starting to see my old self shining through. I pulled my contacts out and threw them into the bin under the window.
I looked in the mirror. I almost looked like my old self. Except my hair was blonde, but that would be fixed soon. I walked back into the bedroom and went into Percy's wardrobe. Lying at the bottom amongst the shoes and other junk was a small black bottle. I grabbed it and ran back into the bathroom. I stuck my head under the tap in the sink and turned the water on. I waited a few minutes then I chucked the black dye on my head. I had an hour to wait, so I decided to check I had everything I needed in my bag, and too dig out my black eyeliner and nail varnish. I found them at the bottom of Percy's wardrobe amongst some other stuff he'd taken off me. I grabbed all of it and threw it into my bag. I checked the time, ten minutes left. I turned the shower on and waited for it too warm up, while it did, I removed the nail varnish from both my toenails and fingernails. Finally the hour was up, I threw my clothes into a pile on the floor and stepped into the shower.
The warm water washed over me, making me forget my worries, and making me feel like my old self. The excess black dye ran into off my head and onto the shower floor and down the drain. I washed myself off and climbed out of the shower. I headed into my room and began to dry my hair, when I'd finished I ran into the bathroom to check the affect.
I looked amazing if I do say so myself. I looked like me again, and not like the blonde bimbo I'd been pretending to be for the last few months. I smiled and punched the air. I headed back into my room and got changed into my old comfy black skinny's, my green day top and black converse. I grabbed the black nail varnish and slapped it onto my nails. As soon as it dried, I shoved on my skull ring and threw my charm bracelet and necklace onto the floor.
I checked through my bag. Almost everything was in there. I went back into Percy's wardrobe and pulled out my CD's and old IPod. Percy had got me a new one that was loaded with all the chart music, but if you ask me it just sounded like a dragon was dragging its claws along a shield. I threw them into the bag then picked it up and unlocked the door.
I went under the stairs and pulled out my biker boots. I managed to ram them into the bag and I walked along the hallway and threw it against the front door. I walked back up the hall and into the living room.
'Hey Thal's' Percy greeted not turning around.
'Hello Percy' I smirked. Walking over to the coffee table.
Percy turned around, his mouth dropped open as if he couldn't process what he was looking at. After a few seconds he started scowling.
'What do you think you're doing?' He hissed.
'Leaving' I replied cheerfully. I grabbed my blackberry off the table and pulled the pink cover off it. I reached into my back pocket and pulled out my old black case. I slid it on and shoved it into my jean's pocket.
'Bye' I grinned before turning around a walking out of the door.
I walked down the hall and picked up my bag from the floor. I reached into the bowl that was lying on the sideboard and pulled out my keys. I stepped through the front door and walked towards my black Mercedes than hadn't been used in over six months. I climbed and threw my bag into the back seat. I slammed the car door shut and turned on the radio. My green day CD was still in the CD player. I hit play on my favourite song and reversed out of the drive. I turned the music up as loud as it would go and wound the windows down.
Percy was shouting at me from the doorway, but I couldn't hear him. I smiled and waved at him, before turning the steering wheel and driving away. Away from Percy and my blonde bimbo lifestyle. And Towards Nico, the love of my life, who loved me the way I was before.
