Percy POV Chapter One: First Day.
"Percy!" My mom yelled up the stairs "C'mon dear your going to be late for your first day of Highschool!" I groaned and rolled out of bed and onto the floor. "Coming!" I yelled back, struggling to rise. Once I got up, I looked around for my backpack. I couldn't see it at the moment so I stumbled over to my closet and opened it. I found my backpack thrown under a bunch of books, notepads, clothes, and other mysterious treasures. I pulled it out and threw the empty backpack over my shoulder. Then half ran down the stairs to meet my mother. I could already smell the scent of pancakes wafting up the stairs. I walked into the kitchen and was greeted by my mother's warm smile. My mother had black hair tucked behind her ear and warm brown eyes. I sat down at the table and my mother placed a big platter of pancakes in front of me. She smiled at me and kissed my forehead. "Good luck Percy!" she said "By the way do you mind walking there? I need to get to work." "Sure mom" I replied shoveling pancakes into my mouth. She thanked me and left into her room.
I furiously brushed my teeth and combed my wild hair. I looked in the mirror and scowled at myself. I had black hair like my mother but unlike her warm brown eyes, I had sea green. I had gotten them from my father who had left us when I was young. I put on some deodorant and ran out the door. I pulled my phone out of my pocket and opened maps. The phone said the school was one and a half miles away and I had twenty minutes to get there. I quickened my pace to a jog and directed myself to Goode High school.
I got onto school grounds with two minutes to spare before the final bell. I ran to the office and burst in through the door. The lady at the front desk looked up at me. "Percy Jackson." I said to her "Im a new student" the woman nodded "One moment please" she ducked under the desk and after a few seconds came up and handed me my schedule, locker number and a map of the school "Have a good first day!" she called as I ran out of the office. I pulled the map to my nose and looked furiously for my locker. I spotted it on the map and ran to where the map pointed me too.
My locker was next to my homeroom and I walked into the class. I approached the desk at the front and spotted a metal plaque read: Paul Blofis I reached the desk and friendly looking teacher glanced at me. He had salt and pepper hair and a kind smile. "I'm Percy Jackson," I said nervously to him "I'm new here" he looked at a paper and looked up "Perseus?" I winced at my real name "Yes" he pointed to a desk with one occupant: A girl with blond hair and a look of boredom on her face. I started slowly walking toward the assigned desk. I sat down at the desk and placed my backpack on the ground next to me. The teacher came up to the desk and handed me A textbook. I thanked him and opened it. Mr. Blofis walked to his desk and sat down. "Ok kids turn to page five in your textbooks and read the page" I turned to the page and started reading. I noticed the bored looking girl dig through her backpack and pull out a phone. She propped up her book on the desk and placed her phone in the center. To Mr. Blofis it would look like she was reading the book while really she was texting her friends. I looked over the girl closely taking in her blond hair and stormy gray eyes. And that tiny freckle under her eye…
She saw me looking and stared at me then rolled her eyes and turned back to her phone. My mind went back to my book and I kept reading. After about ten more minutes the bell rang and the girl stuffed her phone in her pocket and swept out of her room. I packed up my books and got up. I started walking toward the door thinking about the girl when I figure bumped into me. We both tumbled toward the ground and a pair of glasses landed next to me. I focused on the figure and saw A blond boy furiously looking for his glasses while gathering his books that were strewn across the floor I grabbed his glasses and handed them back to him than helped him gather his books.
"Sorry!" I said to him. He pushed his glasses to the bridge of his nose and replied "Its fine" I gave him an apologetic look then walked out the door. I looked at my schedule and groaned. PE was next to the bane of my existence.
I walked into the Gymnasium backpack slung over my shoulder and a voice yelled "YOU! DO A LAP" I glanced over to see a short hairy man pointing at me. He had a baseball bat in his hand so I quickly set down my backpack and joined the lapping teenagers. I could see the blonde girl in English lapping a bit farther ahead of me chatting with her friends and laughing. The boy who I ran into was a few feet ahead of me with two friends. One was a dark haired emo sort with pale skin and an aviator jacket. The other was a brown haired boy who ran funny. I picked up the pace and passed the boy and his friends. I was about halfway through the track and th couch blew his whistle and yelled: "C'MON YOU SISSY CUPCAKES AND RUN" all the teenagers groaned and ran ahead. When we finished he track we did twenty push ups and fifty curl ups. The bell sounded and everyone charged, screaming out of the Gymnasium I followed them in the same enthusiasm. The rest of the day passed in a blur. I got a couple of homework assignments and I wrote them down in my planner. When the final bell rung people grabbed their backpacks and ran out of class and then out of school. I looked up on my phone for the nearest coffee shop. It read there was a shop called the "Human Bean" 1.5 miles away. So I shouldered my backpack and started in the direction of The Human Bean.
