Chapter 1: Annabeth
I packed my suitcase quickly and quietly. I was elated. How could I not be? I was going to Hawaii! I mean how many people can say that? I was going for three weeks. I practically begged my mom to go longer. But seriously, there are so many islands and things to explore on Hawaii and it's so expensive. It's not a trip you should cut short. My flight from LAX takes off at 5 in the morning. It's a five and a half hour flight, but Hawaii's also 3 hours behind us, so time wise it's only like a 2 and a half hour flight, so yeah. Capisce?
Anyways, I lugged my suitcase down the stairs and threw it atop the mound of suitcases to be put into the car my aunt was driving to drop us off at the airport. Downstairs, my mom, my dad, and my two little brothers were eating breakfat.
"Hey honey, you want some scrambled eggs?"
"Sure," I said, taking some into my plate and shoveling it into my mouth. I was starved. We didn't have dinner last night because my mom said we should all just sleep and get up and have a big breakfast.
"So guys, here are your passports. Hold on to them and DO NOT and I repeat. Bobby Mathew are you listening?" They nodded their heads in response.
"DO NOT LOSE THESE!"
"Okay, Fredrick I think they get it," my mom said. I smiled.
"Oh, and Annabeth? You aren't sitting next to us in the plane. I'm sorry, but because we booked it so late they only had four tickets together and one near the back. Is that okay?"
Is that okay? Of course its okay I mean I never wanted to sit next to Bobby and Mathew and their PS3s anyways!
"Sure dad, that's fine," I said trying to sound nonchalant. We ate the rest of our breakfast in excited conversation. My mom reminded us we had to be there a few hours before the flight. God it was early. It was like 2 in the morning and still dark out. My aunt was already there, so we took our suitcases and walked into the huge SUV. My legs were shaking with excitement and I was picking at the loose string on my jean shorts. My best friend Thalia helped me pick out my outfit. She claimed "When you first set foot in Hawaii, you need to look your best!" So here I was, in jean short shorts and an off the shoulder shirt with lace in the back. At least it was comfortable. My hair was in a pony tail I didn't bother to brush. I know what you'rE thinking. "Ew OMG she didn't brush her hair!" But it didn't look half bad and how would you like waking up at 2 in the morning to get ready for a five and a half hour plane ride? Huh? I thought so.
When we arrived at the airport my aunt kissed us goodbye and yadayadayada. I won't bother you with the details and airport security and crap because it was basically me waiting in lines for over 2 hours just so people could check if I was some terrorist or if I hid bombs in my underwear.
When we wet on the plane my dad started spurting out facts about airplanes. Man I'm loving this seat away from them more and more. I found my seat which was actually probably the farthest away you could be from my parents on opposite ends of the Coach section. No-one sat by me and I was kinda happy for all the personal space. The pilot then announced for everyone to get ready because we would be taking off soon and to shut off our phones now because it messes up the equipment or something. After about ten minutes of reading a new book I was interrupted by an old lady screaming.
"GET OUT OF MY SEAT YOU HOOLIGAN!DID YOU HEAR ME!THIS IS MY SEAT NOW GET OUT OF IT BEFORE I WHACK YOU UPSIDE THE HEAD WITH MY CAIN!"
The stewardess approached them with a big, fake smile on her face. "Is there a problem here miss?"
"YES THERE IS! THIS GOOD FOR NOTHING BOY IS IN MY SEAT AND I WON'T STAND FOR IT!" She said this all with her cane in the air ready to hit the boy in the face at any second.
"I'll move! It's true it isn't my seat, but I just wanted to sit with my friends. I wasn't able to get a seat near them. I was thinking maybe we could switch seats?" He said in a hopeful voice. This was the first time I noticed the boys he was standing next to. One had dark shaggy hair and dark as night eyes. He was really pale too, kinda creepy if you asked me. The other guy next to him had curly brown hair and a beard and he looked to be a little scrawny. They both were trying to suppress laughter and so was just about everyone else aboard the plane.
" NO, NOW GET THIS DELIQUENT BOY OUTTA MY SEAT SO I CAN SIT DOWN!" she replied. I couldn't help it. This was hilarious!
"All right, all right, I'm going." The boy said while looking at his ticket trying to find his true seat. He scanned the rows before plopping right down next to me.
"Hey," he said.
"Hi," I replied stupidly. He had black hair and bright sea green eyes that were so hyp-SNAP OUT OF IT GIRL-okay you get it he was hot.
"I'm Percy," he said while smiling an adorable lopsided grin.
"Annabeth" I said smiling shyly.
