So this chapter is just the introduction as to what is to come later on. Please review and let me know what to put in and what to improve.

My dad and his colleagues were in the drawing room. All formal and what not. Sigh so I guess I would just have to sneak past them outside.

The door was ajar and I peeked inside. There were mainly men my dad's age but there was this guy who couldn't have been much older than me if I looked at him closely. He was hot. Tall dark haired, green-blue eyed. And I had seen him somewhere cause he looked vaguely familiar. He looked around with such confidence that I had to smile. Such a young guy could only be something like an intern or perhaps a secretary or something. And he was- crap- looking at me.

'Ah! Annabeth! Come in. Let me introduce you to my colleagues', said my father. Thank God he said that otherwise it would have been so awkward. Eleven pairs of eyes looked towards me and I blushed and entered. I felt so out of place in such a room with my denim shorts and a tank top while all of them were dressed in formals.

The next thing I knew I was shaking hands with everybody in the room and dad was telling me their names and designations. And that guy I described? Oh boy! I was mistaken big time. His name was Percy Jackson and he was the CEO of Olympian International. Yeah that person. No THE that person. No wonder I thought I had seen him somewhere.

He had been in a magazine. The American Business Magazine. He took over as the head when he was a mere twenty years old. I am twenty and still in college. He got that Company to such great heights that it is now known all over the world as a leading Multi National Company which did about everything. I hadn't gone into the details as there was no architecture and the rest of the article seemed boring. He was also in Vogue. Not that I knew about THAT of course. Okay fine I did. Just one issue it had been. I was not that type of girl who went around raving a fashion magazine. They had also done a piece on him I think. I'll have to look it up.

He shook my hand and politely said hello. He had that sexy kind of voice. To me it seemed so anyway.

'So we shouldn't keep the young lady long', said one of them. I had forgotten his name already. But I was also kind of grateful he had spoken up. God only knows how long dad would have kept me here.

'Can I borrow your car?', I asked dad. I was at my his place for the month. I had a holiday and had come back to enjoy it with them and spend some time with my old friends. Rachel was gonna get mad if I didn't show up in the next few minutes.

'I could drive you', said that sexy voice. Oh My God. This had come from Percy Jackson.

'No its alright Mr Jackson. I can go on my own'.

'I insist', he said. My dad was throwing me those looks. What the hell! He wanted me to take his offer. God! Fine.

'Yeah alright then', I said. he shook everyone's hands in the room. A few of them looked a little surprised but they didn't say anything. He held the door open for me.

'You know', I said. 'You are supposed to be the guest.'

He smiled slightly and said, 'I am your escort. At least for now'.

'Remind me which century we live in, again'

He grinned. Wow he was really hot. No wonder why he was in Vogue. We got into his Audi and we put on out seat belts.

He looked at me and said, ' And please, call me Percy'. I smiled and said alright. He had beautiful sea green eyes which I am sure made women swoon around him. Hell I was on the brink of swooning. And I NEVER swoon. I am Annabeth Chase! I'm not supposed to swoon!

The rest of the ride passed pretty quick. We talked a little. Mainly he asked questions and I answered. h asked me about my degree. What all I was thinking of doing with that and things like that. The Mall wasn't that far away and we reached pretty fast. I saw Rachel at the entrance a few feet away from me.

'Thanks', I said as I got out smiling at him.

'You're welcome', he said smiling too. Yeah I like him. I mean he was so nice and sweet.

'Hey listen', he said as soon as I turned away. 'Since you're here, I am throwing a party at my place and I was wondering if your friend and you would like to join me?'

He looked at me with those sea green eyes and I just wanted to kiss him right there. I chided myself for thinking all that.

'Yeah, sure', I said and he fished out his phone and took my number.

'I'll let you know the details', he said smiling. I waved as he drove away.

'Oh my God. OH MY GOD!', Rachel shrieked in my ear. 'Was that Percy Jackson?' She all but screamed. 'You didn't even tell me. he's so damned hot. How did you meet him? Does he like you? Do you know him like personally?'

'Rachel calm down', I said. 'One at a time. I met him quarter of an hour ago. Yes. He IS pretty hot. No he doesn't like me. And yes he seems nice'.

She shrieked a high pitch shriek again and I tried not to meet the eyes of all the people around me. She was being so embarrassing!

We got into a cafe and ordered as she told me about him. Filling in all the details. He was born and brought up in Los Angeles. Okayyy. He got his degree in Business from Harvard. Wow impressive. He completed his degree side by side as he became the CEO of his Company when his dad died. Good for him. He was very good at what he did apparently. No kidding? His parents were never married and his mother is currently with some hotshot in Bollywood. Huh. Silvia Robb. That was her name. She was beautiful when Rachel showed me the picture. No doubt. But he didn't look like her at all. Must have gone on his father.

Well this is how I met him. One day that I might regret my whole life. I wished I had never peeked into the room then perhaps it wouldn't have been happening. I turned over and looked outside my window to the starry sky outside. It was two in the morning and sleep still hadn't come to me.

So? So? What do you think? Please please review for this one :D Since I am not so confident about this story. For now. Though it has full formed itself in my mind very nicely. :)
