Chapter 1~
Hurry up! I mentally scream at myself. The clock is ticking!
I glance up at the clock and I have three minutes left. I still have two questions on my test. Crap. I look around me and everyone is either asleep in their chair or reading a book. My best (and only) friend, Willow has her nose in a book beside of me. I see the cover and instantly get mad. She stole my book! She gives a glance my way and waves her hand, telling me to finish my test.
You see, I'm not a dumb kid. I'm actually the smartest kid in class. But, my faults are that I'm ADHD and dyslexic. Not a good combination.
I sigh and sneak a drink of my water, watching the seconds tick by on the clock. Five... Four... Suddenly it's like I get a jump start and I look down at my test. I quickly circle two random answers. But somehow I feel in my gut that they're right. As soon as I circle the last question, Mrs. Creak's alarm goes off on her desk.
I sigh and smile, nudging Willow to give me my history book back. She rolls her eyes and hands it to me as Mrs. Creak snatches up the test from my desk, giving me a glare. Sadly, none of my teachers like me... And none of the students. I'm as weird as weird can be in the strangest school in New York. Yancy Academy. I cringe at the name. This horrid school that also doubles as my orphinage.
The bell jolts me out of my depressing thoughts. I put on a smile and run to my locker. Summer break! If I don't get to go home, I at least get the two months off of school. I grab my jacket out of my locker, throwing all of my school books in. I turn around to see Willow's dark brown hair swishing around the corner.
"Hey, Willy! Wait!" I start to run after her, trying ro hold my stuff in my arms. She stops and turns around to smile at me. She's so stunningly beautiful that a few guys stop to stare. It's a wonder she hangs out with a loser like me and let's people call her "Willy". It would seem so unlike her at first glance, but once you get to know her, you would know it's all Willow.
"Hey Delia!" She calls, waving as I reach her side. "Ready to hit the beach and show off some bikinis?"
I roll my eyes. "You know I hate bikinis. And of course I can't go to the beach because I'm staying here."
She pouts. "So you don't want to go to the beach with me?"
"I do," I sigh. "It's just Mrs. Creak won't let me."
Mrs. Creak is also the teacher that has to watch over me.
"Aw! That sucks! I wish I could just give her a piece of my mind!" She growls, flexing her invisible muscles.
I laugh. "It's fine, Willy. Go on to the beach and have fun for me."
"If you say so..." she thinks about it, staring at me as we reach my room. "Are you sure you don't want me to stay with-"
And with that I get into my room and slam the door. I want her to have fun, not be stuck here all summer like me.
I open up my laptop I got last year. Took me almost two years to raise enough money for it. But its worth it that I can just email my assignments in. I check my email and click on the first thing. It's blank.
"What the..." I start to say as one word comes over the screen a million times. Confess.
"Confess to what?" I almost scream, thinking it's the girl that lives next to me again.
Then my eyes start to get heavy and blurry, as if I've been drugged. What's going on?
That's the last thing I think as I fall forward and my face slams into the keys.
So, here's my new Percy Jackson story! Yay! I've gotten quite a few chapters done and when I see people reviewing it, I'll post more. Enjoy:3
