Hey Guys! So.. this was a story for fun.. it's very cliche, I hope you'll like it!
Chapter One: Swim Meet
Percy smiled as the timer told him his time. It was a personal, not to mention a world, record- Coach would be happy. This had been a good term for Percy professionally and academically. he had achieved new personal records at every meet, and managed to keep a pretty healthy report card- he had not gotten less than an A-. His reputation as the most popular guy at Goode High had also remained constant although the good social life ended there...
This term, Percy had, for the first time, experienced a break-up which had affected him severely. His ex, Diana, was a very cliche, popular, stereo-typically blonde, bitch. Percy had idolized her, and when they were together, he had given her everything she had wanted... which was saying something. That girl had wanted a lot. She had taken advantage of his wealth every chance she had gotten, and had made sure that he had known what a bad boyfriend he was. Percy, however, being the loyal guy he was, had listened to and followed her every command. Diana got bored easily, though. When she had gotten everything she had wanted- including a $300 diamond purse- she performed the merciless act of texting Percy that she had been cheating on him the whole two years.. and she'd even had the guts to add a ';)' at the end. Percy had done everything- called her, confronted her personally, emailed her, but the witch with a b just laughed and kept dating more boys. As Percy began to recall the time she had made out with another boy.. in front of his locker.. he felt water (the unwanted kind) spring to his eyes, and he clenched his fists...
"Percy?!... Earth to Percy! Or should I say water?"
Percy jumped with a start as he recognized the voice of his coach and stepdad: Paul.
"Percy, you need to stop thinking about Diana so much- it's not healthy for you, son."
"Paul, I was NOT thinking about-"
"Right.. Your fists were clenched, your eyes were threatening to overflow with tears, and you were cursing under your breath, but you weren't thinking about your ex-girlfriend at all. What was your time?"
"Sixteen seconds. Okay fine, I admit, i was thinking about her. But, Paul, of course I was. We were together for TWO YEARS. We were voted Couple Most Likely to Get Married. It's going to take some time to get over her."
Paul allowed himself a smile as he heard Percy's record time. But then the dad inside him reappeared. "Percy, it's taken three months. That's more than enough time. And anyway, I don't see Diana sulking... Okay, I'll talk to you at home, son- Tyson just finished his event."
Percy sighed as he walked away. Paul was a great stepdad, but sometimes he was really clueless. Obviously Diana wasn't sulking... He-lloo?! She broke up with Percy. It wasn't like she had been given the biggest shock of her life over PHONE. No. It was Percy. He had been treated like dirt- hurt beyond words. He just wished that he could find another girl.. but one who would support him- he needed a girl like that. And he needed her soon.
Hey... so that's it for now. I don't think it's very good, but I was bored. :P I'm really open to suggestions.. In fact, I'm hoping for them! Please review and give feedback.. I really appreciate it! (P.S. Next chapter is Annabeth..!)
