Chapter 1

Annabeth POV

Beeep! Beeep! The sound of my alarm startles me off my perch on the edge of my desk chair and I swear as I fall to the ground. I could've sworn I turned the damn thing off last night. I'm in the process of picking myself off the floor and murdering thousands of dust bunnies with my left foot when I hear the familiar ping that means PJTrident accepted my invite to a private chat. I quickly turn towards the screen of my laptop in anticipation.

PJTrident: I read that book you recommended and I gotta say, I expected it to be ten times trashier than it turned out to be. Honestly, I really liked it alot.

He really liked it! I can't believe he took one of my recommendations and finished it in two days! I start to get the familiar butterflies in my stomach that only happen with PJ's sweet words or when I see Per- "No Annabeth! Don't think about him! It's a lost cause!" I mentally chided myself against thinking about me and Percy. I mean he's my best friend it would never work out. Though he does look adorable when he- "Ahhhh Annabeth nooooo!" I scolded myself. Pushing all thoughts of Percy and his utter adorableness aside, I focused on summoning up a suitable reply.

OwlACe: You do realize that a lot is two words, right?

PJTrident: I do now.

PJTrident: I just want to let you know I'm not going to be on tomorrow I'm hanging out with my best friend.

OwlACe: Yeah, me too actually, though he'll probably forget.

PJTrident: Nah, who could ever forget you? ;)

OwlACe: Oh PJ you always were a terrible flirt.

PJTrident: Only to you ;)

OwlACe: Wow. And what's with all the winky faces?

PJTrident: I truly have no idea what you are talking about ;) ;) ;) ;)

OwlACe: Riiiiiight...

PJTrident: Hey, I got to go, maybe I'll see you tomorrow after we're finished hanging with our crazy best friends?

OwlACe: Yeah. Maybe.

PJTrident: I look forward to it. Oh and one more thing.

OwlACe: What?

PJTrident: ;)

PJTrident signed off

I laugh quietly to myself when I see his parting gesture and then I put my laptop on sleep mode. I check the clock and see that it's only 6:00pm so I decide I have enough time to invite Percy over for dinner. I pick up my iPhone 6+ and dial 1113-262-0327, Percy's number. It rings five times before he picks up.

Percy: Yellow?

Annabeth: Yellow is a color, not a suitable way to greet your lifelong best friend

Percy: Oh hey Annabeth, I was just getting ready to come over. I need help with our math homework.

Annabeth: Oh sure. Which problems?

Percy: Numbers 1-18

Annabeth: You do realize that's all of them right?

Percy: Indeed I do.

Percy: So..I can come over right?

Annabeth: Yeah, Yeah. I was just calling to invite you for dinner anyways. We're having spaghetti.

Percy: With meatballs?

Annabeth: Of Course.

Percy: Yesssss! I'll be right there!

After he hung up, I quickly tidied up my room shoving dirty clothes in the hamper and loose papers into random notebooks. Then I put on some black skinny jeans, a grey shirt advertising one of my favorite bands Mayday Parade, and some navy blue converse with blood red laces. I then tossed on a small black leather jacket and opened my window before plopping on my bed to wait for him to arrive. A few minutes later a head of perfectly ruffled unruly black hair stuck through my window and I held my breath when his eyes met mine. If there was one thing I loved about Percy Jackson, it would definitely be his gorgeous sea green eyes. But there isn't one thing I love about Percy, there are multiple things.

"Hey Wise Girl, where is the food?" Percy said. "Downstairs" I replied. "Great" he said " Let's go" and he proceeded to grab my arm and gently drag me down to the kitchen.

"Oh, Seaweed Brain, you didn't forget about tomorrow did you?" I said

"Tomorrow? Of course not!" he stated

"Well excuse me for asking it's just that you usually forget and I have to remind you at the last second." I said exasperated

" Aww Annie, who could ever forget you?" he said similng sweetly.

At this remark I felt a twinge of familiarity but when I saw him smile at me, I pushed the thought out of my mind. And I smiled back.
