chapter 1-pack up your troubles

Annabeth laughed out loud as her best friend, Thalia through a pillow into the face of her other best friend, Piper, face. "Shut up Pipes, that only happened one time!" Thalia screamed, trying to seem menacing but couldn't stop the smile that spread across her face as the girls chanted "Thals and Jaden sitt' in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G!"

It was a typical Friday night sleepover, at Annabeth house, with her three best friends, Thalia Grace, Piper Mclean and Rachel Elizabeth Dare snuggled up in onesies drinking ambrosia hot chocolate laughing and hanging out like regular 17 year old girls.

Life was good

Rachel setting down her hands on Thalia's pillow before a full-fledged pillow fight could commence, said "Ok, c'mon guys we didn't come here to discuss Thals pathetic love life," This comment earned Rachel a stuck out tongue by Thalia, which she returned before stating, "We have to finish Annie's packing for our….." and with a very overdramatic drum roll, the three chanted (apart from Annabeth) chanted "Trip to Greece!"

This pulled her out of her sweet reality; since alas Annabeth was due to leave her sweet, sweet home in San Francisco, for a summer in Greece, for Piper's mum, Aphrodite, wedding. Yeah?

Don't get her wrong she loved Piper's mum, Aphrodite, she was sweet and gave amazing fashion advice even though Annabeth could never get around how someone as sophisticated and girly as Aphrodite could give birth to Piper, tomboyish and someone who would rather pin needles into her eyes than go shopping. Plus Annabeth was ecstatic that Piper's parents were remarrying. And halloo, a holiday with her best friends!

The real reason Annabeth didn't want to go was going to Greece would mean missing a one in a lifetime chance to go to Architect camp in the summer; nerdy she knew but it meant a lot to her - Anyway she had already been to Greece!

Annabeth knew that she sounded like a spoilt brat, a trip to Greece with your best friends, is dreamer thinking, a thing any girl would want, friends, sun, beach, ocean and plenty of cute Greek guys. However, Annabeth wasn't your average girl, even before meeting Pipes, Thals and Rach , at the tender age of six, when she had first gone to Greece, the architecture had amazed her little brain and she had knew since then, she wanted to create something that beautiful. ..

Now she had to miss that chance to go to a wedding that her mother was also attending that had left her and her dad. Great?

"Oh my gods, Annabeth I still can't believe you haven't packed, I was ready weeks in advance, what if you don't have enough sun block or forget your bikini top-now that would be a catastrophe cus you diffo can miss-match Beth and, what if you don't pack enough underwear, I mean you're a bridesmaid for gods sake!" Piper stated, shooting daggers as all the girls sniggered- these were the time she sounded like her mum.

"I think she'll pack enough underwear Pipes," Rachel answered as she folded two more pairs of undies for Annabeth (Just in case). "Now what else do we need?" Before Annabeth could opened her mouth, Thalia answered, "Some more shorts and maxi dresses!" Rachel nodded and raced to one of the hundred (at least that's how it seemed to Annabeth) shopping bags from their earlier shopping spree for Annabeth's holiday clothes. "Um, is there any possibility I can pack for myself?"

The three girls turned and stared at Annabeth as if she was insane. "Well, fine you obviously don't need my help then, I'll be in the bathroom, needa brush my teeth anyway." Annabeth grumbled, as she stalked inside the toilet. "Remember to spray!" Called back Rachel as she slammed the door. Annabeth sighed in relief, some peace and quiet.

She sat down on the toilet (not like that lid closed: P) and took out the book she quietly grabbed before coming into the bathroom. It was the first book she could get her hands on, and it turned out to be, one of Piper's silly romance books, her and the girls endlessly tormented her about. It was one of those books that it's front cover had an image of a tall, bronze strapping young fellow with his arms snaked around the waist of a swooning beautiful girl.

In these books, the girl always got her prince charming. Annabeth snorted at the stupidity of the book, teaching young girls they needed a guy to make everything all right, has these authors ever heard about feminist like the suffragettes? Apparently not. Even though Annabeth resented the fact the book was basically defying everything she stood for, she opened up the first page- only thing to do to pass the time… Chapter One-"One way or another, I Daphne Hollow will get him". Eurgh Annabeth inwardly groaned at the first line, which was basically giving away half the story-line; another love-struck girl fawning over a guy in ordinary circumstances she would never get (but this was fiction). This book had better have monsters, Annabeth thought as she turned over the page…
