(A/N) This is my first official FanFiction and I am SUPER excited! I am your typical fangirl that ships all of the book pairings. I also have a pet peeve of incorrect grammar and such so if you could KINDLY criticize my work that would be fantastic. Although this is my first FanFiction I have been reading them for awhile now. I'm guessing you want to read the story now so… here it is!
Annabeth's POV
Ring… Ring… Ring…
I rolled over in my bed and looked at my alarm clock, which was blaring in my ear, and looked at the time. 5:00 a.m. With a groan I got up out of bed and trudged over to the bathroom to take my morning revival (a.k.a. my shower). Then I went to get dressed my usual winter wear, a grey sweater with a pair of black leggings, and did my hair in its usual ponytail.
I guess you could say I was pretty with my long curly blonde hair that went down to my waist. I also had a deep tan from the previous summer when my friends and I went to Long Island Sound. But I think the thing that stands about me is my eyes. They are a stormy grey and when I'm thinking (or so I'm told) the look like turning gearshifts.
I then walked into the kitchen and got myself some cereal (my mom had left early to go to her job that required most of her attention), and after I finished that I got into my car and drove off to school, Goode High School.
Here's the thing about my school, I'm pretty sure we are the most cliché school out of the entire universe. The school is divided in stereotypical groups of knuckle-head jocks, make-up obsessed cliques, nerds who just liked comic books and video games, the "gangsters" who thought they were cool because they wore their pants as low as they possibly could, and populars who couldn't care less about their studies or the rest of the school's population.
My group of friends is an entirely different story, though. We have Piper McLean whose mom owns a very large make-up company and her father is world famous movie star Tristan McLean. You would expect she would be a stuck up rich snob, but she isn't, she's a very down to earth kid. That also happens to be drop dead gorgeous even though she tries to hide it she can't. Her heritage is connected to the Cherokee Indians so she looks very earthy. She has these super cool eyes that are ever-changing and choppy brown hair that is usually braided with feathers. All in all, she is probably the most beautiful person in our group.
Then there's her boyfriend Jason Grace, our Golden Boy, President of the student council, and active in sports. Plus he actually tries to work hard in class, which is a one-up to most of the boys in high school who are too busy checking girls out to listen to their teachers. He has blond hair and blue eyes and is well built. Lots of girls swoon over him, but Piper has him wrapped around her little finger.
Next is their best friend Leo Valdez. There are almost no words to describe him. He is probably the most problematic child I have ever seen. With crazy brown eyes and a devilish grin, teachers automatically know to have the principal on speed dial just in case. He is also described with the term "Latino Santa's elf."
Rachel Elizabeth Dare is one of my all time best friends. Her father is the owner of Dare Incorporation and she hates him. She loves to paint and protest the strangest things. She has super frizzy red hair (I'm sure her parents didn't intend the pun when they named her) and bright emerald green eyes that stand out against her pale face and sea of freckles.
My other best friend is Thalia Grace. She and Jason are twins and she is older by 8 minutes. You would never even guess that they were siblings much less twins. Her attitude is very rebellious and snarky. You really can't go 5 minutes in a conversation with Thalia and not expect to hear a sarcastic comment. She has spiky black hair with piercing blue eyes with a pale face and a sprinkle of freckles across her nose. I've known her since I was 7 years old.
I was thinking about how horribly my day was going to go that I almost didn't notice him. Percy Jackson. You cannot step into this school without hearing his name repeated over and over again. He was the most popular person in the school yet he seemed oblivious to the admiring and jealous stares he got by just walking down the hall.
His girlfriend, Alicia Nicole Morris, on the other hand knew she was getting these stares, and she took time to rub it into everyone's faces seeming to say "Hell yeah I'm Percy Jackson's girlfriend if you mess with me you mess with him." Seriously if she wasn't considered a snob then I don't know what is.
Anyway, I narrowly avoided them while going to my locker to put my things away. It was far too close for comfort. Today I'm going to stick to the same motto as usual "Avoid the populars".
(A/N) That concludes the first chapter I hope you review. It would mean the world to me. Until next time.
