**Chapter 1**

Annabeth's POV

I turned around the campus of my new college, Cranston University, in awe. I couldn't admire the large college grounds for long, however, because just then my phone buzzed with a text. Percy. I sighed and pulled out my phone. A text waited on the screen: hey. just got here. starbucks later? I responded with one quick word: sure. and put my phone away.

After I said goodbye to my parents, I walked up to where I would room: Bishop Hall. I grabbed my key and knocked before I walked into the door. My roommate, who I had learned earlier was named Rebecca Hart, had already put her stuff away. I assumed that she had gone to Hoch Dining Hall, where students on our campus usually ate. I threw my bag on the bed, figuring that I could unpack later, and snatched up a couple dollars for coffee with Percy.

I walked less than a mile to the nearest Starbucks and peeked in through the door. Percy sat waiting in a nearby booth. He didn't notice me. I strode in, covered his eyes with my hands, and whispered "Guess who?" in his ear. He spun around and grinned at me.

"Hey!" he said. "Wanna order?"

"Okay," I responded.

We walked up and gave the barista our orders. After Percy got his mocha, I ordered my coffee just how I like it: black. All of the girls in the nearby vicinity stared at me. Percy and I walked back to our table.

"So," he began, "How do you like campus?"

"It's beautiful," I replied. "Where's your dorm? Mine's in Bishop Hall. I'm room 435."

He wrinkled his forehead. "Um… uh.. Stanton Hall, I think," he said.

Shoot, I thought to myself, I better go unpack if Percy's gonna come over.

"Well, I better go," I told Percy.

He frowned. "So soon?"

"Gotta unpack," I explained. "Text you later."

He kissed me on the cheek. "See ya."

We walked out the door together, but split up on the way to our dorms. When I got there, Rebecca was still absent. I sat on my bed and stared at my mountains of boxes. Well, might as well start now- better than later. I grabbed the top box and ripped it open. After I had unpacked that, I did the same with every other box. My part of the room finally looked like someone lived in it. My eyes began to burn from exhaustion, so I checked the time on my phone. 11:45. Was it really that late? And where was my elusive roommate? That can wait, I chided myself. Sleep now, questions later. I fell onto my newly made bed and was asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow.

So that was Chapter 1! Leave your comments and reviews below. I know it was kind of boring, but it's just the start of their story.
