Percy's POV

It was a Tuesday in school today. Which also meant I'd have swimming varsity practices.

To me, those were one of the only good things that happened on a regular Tuesday. But it wasn't just because I was the captain, it was because these were the only days I could stay as long as I wanted in the water. Or as long as the whole practice at least.

My stepfather Paul, also known as Mr. Blofis or Mr. Blowfish by accident, dropped me off of school. He dropped me off at the main entrance because apparently, teachers had an entrance of their own.

"See you later, Paul." I said, while getting of the car and closing the door.

"Goodbye Percy, have fun at school today." He waved, just as he drove off.

I pushed open the school doors and walked in. Like every morning here at Goode, people would whisper and stare, at me.

I used to wonder if it was because I had something stuck in my teeth, or if there was something stuck on my clothes. But since they did the whole staring thing every day, I just got used to it, and I found ignoring it much better.

I walked into my classroom and caught another thousand stares from more people. I ignored them again and got into my seat.

Just before the final bell rang, a girl with straight blond hair and bright blue eyes came running in, but she stopped short by the doorway. All eyes stopped dead on her.

Our teacher, Mr. Boring was the only one who spoke up.

"Yes, how may I help you?" he asked her.

"I'm new," she said. "and I was told this was where my first class would be."

"Of course," he replied, clapping his hands together. "Your name?"

"Sarah. I'm Sarah Clarkson."

"Of course. Sarah please sit next to Mr. Jackson."

He gestured towards me, and I felt the whole room heat up.

That's when I realized there really was an empty seat beside me. How did I not see that? I mumbled to myself.

She walked to the back of the room, where I was.

It would have been easier without any of the glares. Which Sarah obviously got plenty off.

At least some girls didn't, but they were mostly just a few of my best friends' girlfriends. They gave her small smiles instead.

But Bea Diamond, who turns out to be the most popular girl in class and the meanest, stuck her leg out for Sarah to trip on.

Luckily I saw it.

"Sarah, watch out." I warned.

Too late.

She tripped over and she was about to fall face-down on the floor. I stood up from where I was sitting and I caught her.

Her blue eyes looked over to mine, and I suddenly realized that in a way she did remind me of Annabeth. She blushed. I detangled her from my arms and helped her stand up.

"Um, thanks… er…"

"Percy, Percy Jackson".

Some girls started to whisper to each other while others sent Sarah more glares. The guys in our class didn't care at all, like nothing just happened. But my friends were looking.

Jake smirked at me.

Mike looked from me to Sarah and drew an invisible heart with his finger.

Louis and Will smiled at a thought both of them were thinking about, which unfortunately had something to do with me and Sarah.

But Mr. Boring just rolled his eyes and yawned. At least his yawn was loud enough.

It snapped everyone back to class.

"Thank you Mr. Jackson, Ms. Clarkson please be more careful next time. And Ms. Diamond,"

He looked at Bea, "Please be more careful next time about where you decide to put your leg."

"Yes sir," she said mockingly. "It won't happen again."

"Good. Now everyone back to your seats".

We all sat back down and listened as Mr. Boring explained something about angles, fractions, and all those other stuff.

This was going to take forever.

Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrring….

"Class dismissed."

Everyone packed their things back into their bags and headed out for their next class.

I finished pretty fast, and I was just about to leave, when someone tapped my shoulder.

I turned to see, and it was.

Sarah.

"Yes?"

"Uh, Percy right?"

I nodded.

"Thanks for… um… you know, earlier."

"Uh, okay… I mean, you're welcome… I guess."

"Anyway," she continued, "if you weren't busy, could you show me around Goode for a while? Besides, we have the next class together."

"Sure-Wait. How'd you know we have the next class together?"

"Well during Mr. Boring's discussion earlier, you took your schedule out of your bag, and you were probably thinking of something really hard because it flew right off your table and you didn't notice it at all."

"Oh, right. Sure I could show you around for now, until you get it at least. I can introduce you to some of my friends if you'd like."

"Okay, thanks Percy."

"No problem."

"Let's go to the next class before we're late."

"Oh yeah, let's go."
