AU with a high school band and just overall a fun story with every character and a lot of couples, it's a slow build but it will have enough "fun" parts to keep you wanting more. Nico is in a band, Clarisse and Annabeth are together but so are Annabeth and Percy. Percy has mixed feelings about the band, but really just feels something for Nico. Read the story and not the summary.

So I (Incubi) have been reading a lot of Percy Jackson fics lately and I decided to start a chaptered story on this account and so I started planning and came up with this, and I even got Succubi on board with this fic so that means that there will be every kind of pairing possible. The two main pairings of this fic will however be Percy/Nico and Clarisse/Annabeth but there will be others, many, many others so no worries.

Biggest question, will there smut? And the answer to that would be HELL YEAH! It's us so of course there will be smut, lots and lots of the smut. We would love reviews on this story so that we can make it even better then it has already been planned, also updates will not be planned, they will happen when and if we want them to so don't be hasty readers.

This fic will have a lot of songs in it so just so that we're clear, because I will not be saying this again, we do not own those songs nor will we ever, but hey its fun to dream right.

Without farther AN's lets get on with the fic

We don't own anything; if we did life would have been much more entertaining.

Hearts Journey

Chapter 1 The Invite

The load sound of an alarm going off woke Percy from his slumber, it was Friday and already he wished it could be Saturday but with his luck he had no chance of skipping the day. With a groan he lifted himself out of bed and over to the one bathroom the apartment had, after Gabe his evil, bastard of a step-father disappeared Percy and his mom, Sally, had moved to a new apartment. His mother had to work extra shifts at the dinner she worked at but she did because it was for them and them alone, not for more gambling debts; Percy walked to the small bathroom, a pair of boxer-briefs all that he wore.

Coming out of the shower and feeling more awake then before Percy walked to his room with a towel around his waist, he had the apartment all to himself every morning and most nights because his mother worked so much. Reaching his room and picking out clothes to wear Percy lets the towel drop and gets dressed for the day thinking to himself, "just one more week before summer vacation starts". Now dressed and ready for his day Percy heads to the small kitchen and pours himself a bowl of cereal and eats it before heading out to school which he could just walk to since it was close.

"Yo Perce wait up" Percy heard the familiar voice of his best friend Grover; the two had been friends since kinder garden. Grover had gotten teased because he liked styling his hair into tiny horns back then and Percy had come to his rescue and they have been friends ever since. "Morning Grover, where's Juniper, isn't she walking with us today?" Grover looked at him and said, "nah she had some family stuff to deal with, her aunt is sick and she and her family left this morning and won't be back until sometime next week", Percy could see that the absence of his girlfriend made his friend sad so he quickly thought of a way to cheer him up, and found one.

"Annabeth wants us to go check out the Half-Bloods, our schools band tonight. You can come with us if you want" Percy said; the boy did not really want to go, but his girlfriend Annabeth did, she was obsessed with the band and he had no idea why, they only sang covers. Another reason Percy did not really like the band was because at Olympus High, the Half-Bloods were more famous then any sports team, and it was the Half-Bloods that brought in all the big donations that paid for the sports teams; being on the swim team, one of the three major sports at Olympus High Percy knew how it felt to be treated like a nobody when the Half-Bloods came walking down the hall, even his own girlfriend liked them more then him.

"Hello, earth to Percy. Come in please Percy" Grover waved his hand in front of his friends face, Percy was startled back to reality, "sorry, I spaced out. I was just thinking about Annabeth" Percy lied, well short of. Grover gave him a look like he knew Percy was lying but he did not press his best friend for answers. "I was saying before you decided to check out the moon again that I would like to come with you and Annabeth to see the Half-Bloods, thanks" Grover looked at his friend as he talked, he knew Percy hated, no hate is too strong a word for it. He knew Percy disliked the band and that he disliked that his girlfriend seemed to like the band more then him, because she never missed a show, never.

"Cool, I'll see you later then and tell you where to meet us" Percy said as they reached the school. They parted ways to go and get ready for class. Percy walked towards his locker and saw Annabeth waiting for him, but she was not alone; Clarisse was with her and the two seemed to be talking about something they did not want everybody to hear about. Upon seeing Percy walking towards them Clarisse left after throwing him a glare that pissed him off, the girl hated him and he did not know why, because he has never spoken to her, and he tried once only to wake up in the nurses office, but that was two years ago.

"What was that about?" Percy asked Annabeth who looked a little guilty but quickly shook it off saying, "she wanted to know if I could help out with some math tutoring, and I said that I would think about it. It's hard being the smartest kid in school you know" Percy looked at her before moving in for a kiss, though Annabeth moved so that it landed on her cheek instead of on her lips. Clarisse looked at the display from the other end of the hall and she clenched her fists in anger.

The day went by as normal till lunch time, class after class Percy tried to learn something but his thoughts kept going back to Annabeth and the kiss she dodged. It bothered him, more so then his other problems, namely the English project that was being handed to him and the rest of the class to do. Walking from class Percy saw the four members of the Half-Bloods walking down the hall talking to each other.

The members were, Clarisse La Rue, Silena Beauregard, Thalia Grace and Nico di Angelo. Those four quickly rose to the top of the social ladder after forming their band and bring in money for the many clubs and groups in the school; it also did not hurt their reputation that they were extremely good, even if they only sang covers. Percy did not know any of them really, aside from Clarisse who keeps hanging around Annabeth and then of course Thalia who was an old friend of Annabeth's though Percy never did get to hear how the two became friends.

Annabeth walks over to her boyfriend and latches herself to his arm and looks at him as he stares at the band members, she knew that he disliked them and that he didn't really want to go with her tonight but that he would because he was Percy Jackson, number one good guy in school.

"What's wrong, you look bothered?" Annabeth asked when Percy made move to, well move when she latched onto him. Percy gave her a look before returning his gaze back to the band members who had just passed the couple, "I just don't get them, their at the top and yet they don't talk or hang out with anybody else besides themselves, it's weird isn't it?" Percy asked as he looked at the backs of the Half-Bloods. "Maybe they don't want to be on top or they just don't like other people" Grover said as he appeared on the other side of Percy.

The trio walked into the cafeteria and over to the lunch line to get their food before going to their table over by the east windows, which looked out at the front of school from the second floor. This table is where Percy and Annabeth had first met and it was also where Percy had first asked out the curly blond; after all that happened at the table it just became theirs and the student body accepted it that way as well, mostly because the swim team was second on the list of most famous groups at Olympus High.

"oh Percy I wanted to tell you that I run into Clarisse before meeting up with you, and she asked if I could tutor her this weekend for that test on Monday, I hope it's alright that I help her" Annabeth said as soon as the group sat down, Percy however was not all that happy about hearing his girlfriend say that she was not going to be hanging out with him this weekend, and he had even made plans. Percy's mom was going to be working late all weekend long and he had wanted to spend some alone time with Annabeth, they have been dating for a year now and Annabeth never showed any interest in taking their relationship any farther, which meant no sex for the horny teenager. Percy might have liked blue more then most people but he hated something blue, he hated blue balls.

The Half-Bloods came walking in after a while and moved to go sit at their table on the other side of the cafeteria, Percy eyed them as Annabeth talked on about how she would make some time for him during summer, Grover on the other hand just looked at his best friend and then at what was taking his attention away from them, he wasn't the smartest guy at school but he knew Percy and he knew that look that Percy was giving the band, he just needed to figure out who that look was for.

"Why do you think everyone here likes them so much but out right ignores them most of the time?" Percy suddenly asked, Annabeth stoped talking when Percy interrupted her in the middle of her talking about how her science class went, step by step. "I think people don't really care as long as they keep bringing in money for the school, and with all the gigs they get booked for in this town they will have a very long reign as the top dogs at this school" Grover finally spoke up, he wanted to get in a say before Annabeth could, something about her bothered him these days. This couple really did have an obsession with the Half-Bloods.

Silena watched from their table as Percy, Annabeth and Grover talked; she had been noticing how both Annabeth and Percy had been watching them, Annabeth longer and more often then the other, but she knew Annabeth's reason. Silena had found out about six months ago that Annabeth was dating Clarisse and has only been using the poor boy to hide that fact, but what she wanted to know was why that very same boy would keep sneaking glances at their group, who could Percy like in their group, because she knew that the oblivious boy did not know about his girlfriend and their drummer.

Silena got up and walked over to the three, they looked like they were having a heated discussion about something. Grover had his hands up and motioned to people going about their business while Annabeth and Percy were looking at him like he had a third head, every so often the couple would look like they added something to the discussion. When Silena reached their table she went unnoticed, which she didn't like so she did the one thing she was good at, she made a scene. "So what's so important that ya don't notice me?" said the girl from her place on their table, Silena had climbed onto their table and sat down in front of them taking turns to look at their stunned faces, "Silena get down and use the chairs like a normal person" Annabeth said since she knew the girl best. Silena looked at her before shrugging her shoulders and moving to sit down next to Grover, she moved closer to the blushing teen and flung her right arm around him and held onto his shoulder with her left hand, "So what were you talking about" she asked again with a smile.

Percy looked at his best friend and felt sorry for him, the poor guy was red in the face from the girl hanging off of him, the very hot girl who everybody wanted to either date or be friends with, Grover however has had a crush on the girl since he first saw her at school, but then again everybody had a crush on the girl, she was after all the lead female vocals of the Half-Bloods and their keyboard player; the outfits and the dances that she did in said outfits also did not help the many hearts she breaks on a daily basis.

"We were talking about you, or rather the Half-Bloods and how you guys don't really seem to care about fame in this school", Annabeth once spoke up since she saw that neither Percy nor Grover would be speaking. "Aww you guys talk about me, how sweet" Silena said fluttering her eye lashes at the couple, Annabeth just sighed before trying again, "we were talking about the band as a whole, not just you", Silena kept her smile on her face and let go of the poor boy next to her who fell over now that she was not supporting him anymore, "I know, I was just playing" she said as she looked down at the boy who just suddenly jumped back up saying "I'm OK".

"So, do you guys care about fame in this school?" Percy spoke for the first time since the girl arrived; Silena looked at him the same way Annabeth looks at equations and it creeped him out, "we don't care about our fame in this school" she replied after a while. The three looked at her in question, how could the Half-Bloods not care about fame in high school, "how come" Grover voiced their thoughts. "Fame in high school is not something we see as useful, or rather the others see as useful, me, I like it when people fall at my feet when I walk the halls, but that's just me I guess" Silena said as she got up from her seat.

"So will we see you three at the show tonight?" she asked before turning to leave, "yeah' we'll be there" Percy said without thinking, while Annabeth wondered why Silena would ask that when she knew that they were going to be there. "Good, I'll keep an eye out for you; there is something I need to find out" the girl said before turning around and waving her goodbye across her shoulder. Annabeth was not the only one good at figuring things out, and tonight she was going to find out which one of them the blue eyed swimmer had his eye on.

"She scared me" Grover said as he stared at the retreating form of Silena, Annabeth turned to look at him and the look on his face made her burst out laughing, Percy looking to see what she was laughing at also burst out into a fit, "what's so funny" Grover asked but it took a while for him to get an answer, "you look like that little dragon that lit the cannon on that Disney movie, you know the dragon that pointed at the cricket when he lit that cannon" Percy said before bursting into another fit of laughter, "sure make fun of the guy who almost died, she could have killed me with…" Annabeth interrupts him, "her good looks" which sent the couple into yet another fit of laughter and made the boy of the joke blush.

After school Percy was walking home, he did not have swim practise since someone had decided it would be funny to throw dye in the pools, so the coach cancelled practise until Monday; not that there was anything to practise for with summer vacation in a week. After getting home Percy headed straight for his room where he dumped his backpack at the door and fell on his bed, the thoughts going to the plans he had made for himself and Annabeth this weekend; he had booked them a table at Cerce's, the best restaurant in town and then he had gone out and bought some other provisions for the night and the next day, it was the first time that he had even bought anything like that.

He just could not shake the feeling like Annabeth was pulling away from him, like she no longer wanted to be with him and it was eating him up inside, he felt like it was his fault.

Percy woke up to the ringing of his phone, answering it with a sleep filled voice, "hello?" the boy asked forgetting to check who it was. "Where are you, the band's going on in thirty minutes" Percy heard his girlfriends voice from the other side of the phone, "I must have fallen asleep when I came home" the boy said as he sat up on his bed and stretched. "Just get over here soon seaweed brain" Annabeth replied with the nickname she had for her boyfriend, the nickname that he hated. Annabeth had hung up after that and it left Percy once again in the silence of his room alone with his thoughts, "why does she have to call me that" he said to the empty room.

Percy quickly grabbed a shower and left a note for his mom saying that he was going to be out late with his friends, before he left and got on his bike, he wished that he had a car but even though he got his license his mom could not afford a car for him, she could barely afford her own car with the amount of times that it broke down.

Percy arrived at the Warehouse as the kids around here called it, but it was just a place owned by Apollo, a club owner in the area, Percy could never remember how many he owned but he knew that this one was the only "teen friendly" one. Walking towards the door Percy was stopped by the doorman who asked, "ID" to which Percy showed him drivers licence, after seeing his ID the doorman let the teen inside. If Percy was old enough to drink anything stronger then he was currently allowed to then he would have gotten a stamp and have gotten his picture taken and sent to the bar so that they could know that he was allowed to drink.

Walking into the Warehouse Percy was astonished at the place, it looked like every club he had ever seen in the movies; there was even a fog machine that helped to set the mood for the dance floor. Percy walked down the entry stairs and looked around trying to find Annabeth and Grover, the music loud in his ears and he could feel the bass in his bones. People were dancing and jumping, shouting could be heard from some of them, Percy looked at the dance floor and found his best friend jumping up and down with some random people; he was covered in glow in the dark body paint. Percy kept scanning the place but he could not find Annabeth until he saw her coming from the girl's bathroom, soon followed by the Half-Bloods drummer, Clarisse.

(Bathroom Scene)

Clarisse watched and waited patiently as Annabeth, talked to Percy on the phone she could feel her blood boiling, on how she disliked that boy after all he is the one who got to hold Annabeth's hand and sit with her during lunch. Clarisse took this time to thoroughly check Annabeth out, she had this cute pastel colour dress on that showed just the right amount to cleavage and legs, Annabeth hung up the phone when she noticed Clarisse check her out.

"See something you like" asked Annabeth very innocently to Clarisse, who just walked up to her and gave her what looked like a friendly hug to all the watched, "Meet me in the bathroom, and I'll show you, just how much I like what I see" whispered Clarisse right into Annabeth's ear making her shiver. Clarisse broke the hug and went to the bathroom, Annabeth counted to ten before quickly making her way to the bathroom as well.

Once in the bathroom Annabeth looked for Clarisse only to be pulled into one of the stalls, Clarisse quickly closed the stall door and locked it before pushing Annabeth against its wall and kissing her fiercely, one hand in her hair and the other on her hip. Annabeth has one hand in Clarisse's hand and the other gripping to her shoulder for support. Clarisse pushes her right leg between Annabeth's legs, pushing her thigh right onto Annabeth's centre, her lips never leaving Annabeth's making sure to swallow all the moans.

Clarisse takes the hand she has on Annabeth's hip and slides it to her thigh enjoying the feel of her skin before taking the thigh and hooking it around her hip, giving her easier access to push her own jean clad thigh against Annabeth's centre. Clarisse's other hand played with Annabeth's right breast through the dress and the bra she had on, Annabeth broke the kiss and let out a very breathily hushed "Clarisse we have to hurry".

"Fine" said Clarisse with a little pout, Annabeth gave her a sweet kiss pouring nothing but love into it; cause she knew Clarisse pouted for her and only her which made her feel more than a little special. Clarisse resisted the urge to mark Annabeth's neck, because she knew Annabeth would be very mad at her if she did, but oh did she want to just so that everyone could see that Annabeth is hers, but she settled for three soft kisses on her neck.

Clarisse gave her one last kiss before pulling away, and helping Annabeth fix her dress, she unlocked the door and held it open for Annabeth, who walked passed her to look at herself in the mirror to see if she looked presentable. Clarisse joined her by the mirror "You should go first I'll wait a minute than follow" said Clarisse, Annabeth walked out but not before looking at Clarisse one more time over her shoulder, Clarisse waited a minute walked out of the bathroom.

Percy went to join his girlfriend at the table she sat at and he was so focused on her that he did not see the wink and smile that Clarisse sent her way. "There you are, it's about time you got here they're about to go on" Annabeth said as she saw Percy, she had a blush on her face which she hopped her boyfriend would not ask questions about or even notice. Percy sat down next to his girlfriend before the lights stilled and the music died down and Silena walked up to the microphone where the only light on the stage was, she was wearing an outfit that Percy could not begin to even describe other then hot (think Yuna from final fantasy 10-2 gunslinger).

Silena took hold of the mic and walked to the edge of the stage and said in a sing song voice, "hello~ everybody, I hope you're all having fun, but if your not your about to. Now how about you all tell me what you want" the crowd gathered started to chant "Half-Bloods, Half-Bloods, Half-Bloods" and Silena looked to be eating up all of the attention. The girl on stage held up he hand and then brought the one holding the mic to her smiling mouth again, "we're the Half-Bloods, and we're here to make you all have FUN~!" the light came on one the stage and they started to play their first song of the night.

I hoped you like the first chapter and that you will review with some good or bad comments, a review is a review so click it and say something. Updates for other fics will come soon enough so hold out till then, however Sozzled Trip is taking a break cause Succubi thinks poor young Derek needs it after what I have put him through, though I might add a little something , something later on.

If someone who goes to school in America can please maybe PM us how a day in a school goes exactly then please, we really need some insight. Home schooled so we have no idea what it's like out there.

So Halloween is coming next month and we have discussed it, we would like our followers to choose a special Halloween fic that will come out along with our normal weekly fics, so here are the rules for the draw.

1) Two fics must be chosen, one m/m and another f/f

2) The fics can be the same show, movie, game, cartoon, anime, real person, book or whatever you want; though we do decide which fic we will ultimately write with the same means we decide every other fic, by fate. All Halloween requests will be written down and put in a hat and then we will randomly draw one m/m and one f/f.

3) Along with your request you should add two tags, we will then do the same with all of the tags entered and draw two for each story, in this way the story will be something good and new.

4) Last rule, we will think of the story, so do not add a summery with your requests for the Halloween competition. Though we will follow certain guidelines you might add like, "Nico and Percy dress up as each other for Halloween" or "Karma and Amy tease each other with explicit costumes", so let loose those imaginations.

We look forward to seeing requests in our inbox real soon, so let those deep and dark fantasies that you have kept hidden out and come play for Halloween, also please PM and or add your requests in the comments/reviews.
