Percy's POV
BEEP BEEP BEEP
I groaned as the alarm clock signaled the start of the my first day of school in New York. My mom and I had recently moved here from California.
"Percy, it's time to get up," my mom called from the kitchen.
"I'm up," I replied, reaching for my glasses.
"I made you some waffles," my mom told me, "and remember to have fun at school."
"I will," I told my mom. Truth to be told, I was actually pretty nervous to go to Goode High. I didn't know anyone at this school, but it will be cool to meet new people.
"Bye mom."
I stepped outside and started walking to school. As I turned the corner I saw that there were already a lot of students heading inside.
"Welcome to class," the science teacher, Mr. Wilson, said. "We will have assigned seating so that you can get to meet other people instead of just sitting by your friends."
The person sitting next to me was a girl with blond hair. She was facing the front so I couldn't get a good look at her face.
"Now that you're all seated, we're going to start off the year in a fun way," Mr. Wilson stated.
"You and the person sitting next to you will research something that has to do with science and do a presentation based on it," he continued.
I turned to look at the girl saw that she was beautiful. What really caught my attention though were her eyes.
They were a stormy grey.
