Percy P.O.V

I sighed, stretching my limbs as i prepared myself for my first yearat Goode High School. Not that i expected it to be wonderful, as the past 15 years of my life have been nothing but moving to one school to the next, always getting expelled for something i hadn't done. No matter how hard i try to tell and explain to the staff that it wasn't me, they would never listen.

But it didn't matter anyways, those years before had been nothing but constant running and hiding from bullies, lurking in the shadows and generally trying to make myself invisible. I always was picked on as the new, weak student that bullies thought as a new playtoy.

' And i hate it!' He thought to himself miserably, shaking his head in frustration. He hated getting pick on, seen as 'lower' class by the bigger, more popular, and athletic students. 'But then again, i don't think i'm supposed to like it…'

But the past summer had done him a little good, he had grown a couple more inches and his build had gave him a bit more muscle to show. He sighed, hoping at least now he would be left alone, neither unpopular or popular, just a ghost in between.

He stood up and walked to his closet, beginning to get ready. It was certainly going to be a long day.

I applied the last bit of makeup, a deep red lipstick to match my black smokey eyes . Standing back from the mirror, i smirked my famous smirk that sends students looking away fearfully. It was the beginning of another year, and to be honest i was really excited. The other baddies, as we call ourselves, Drew and Thalia, would be there. They had said Luke was planning a huge back to school party tonight as his mansion, since his parents were out, and was inviting almost everyone.

The party was one of my favorite times of the year because it always brought wicked memories and gossip about the stupid things we did while high or drunk. Also, maybe, because Luke was there too…

I shook my head. 'Not now, lovepuppy' I scowled at myself 'Stop putting your head in the clouds and focus on better things, not a boy who hooks up with a different girl every week and always shows off.'

I shook my head and left my room, sliding down the spiral staircase much to my moms displeasure. But really that was one of the reasons i did it. Smirking, i walked outside and hooped on my motorbike, thinking about the long day ahead.

I was outside the school steps when three girls arrived on motorbikes. The first one was wearing skinny, ripped up black jeans with a shirt that read, 'Up To No Good' and a black leather jacket. Her hair was loose, the perfect blonde curls gently falling down her shoulders. Her face had no flaws, and her eyes…...He couldn't even begin about them. A beautiful light stormy grey, with a hidden intelligence in them, like there was more to her than meets the eye. a Gods, i couldn't take my eyes off her, she was beautiful.

'Wait, what am i doing? This is my first day and i'm already fantasizing someone?" i snapped back to reality, blaming it on the hormones. I looked away from her and instead focusing my attention on the two motorbikes that pulled up beside hers. They weren't as pretty as the first, but definitely pretty enough to be popular kids. They were dressed as goth as the first one.

One of the other two slide off her glasses, shaking her chocolate brown hair. The other rolled her eyes and sighed, "Drew, you always make a dramatic entrance."

"Well, Thalia, look what happens when i do. I already have a boy eyeing us." Drew smirked devilishly, nodding her head towards me. I blushed furiously before stammering, "I wasn't- i was just-"

"Oh, go away you dork." She sighed, rolling her eyes. Thalia shoved her shoulder as she slid off her bike.

"Hey, be nice to the new kid." She said in a false sweet tone, looking at me with concern. "Are you okay sweetie? Did Mommy Forget to give you lunch money?"

During this whole exchange Annabeth watched, looking between the three. "Oh, fuck off Thalia." She said, sliding off her bike as well. She looked at me, her eyes emotionless except for a tiny hint of….Concern?

Thalia shut her mouth and looked away. "Fine, Annabeth. Just having some fun."

It was obvious that Annabeth was the leader of the other two. I started to shuffle away, wanting to go hide before i got any more attention, before Annabeth spoke again.

"Hey, what's your name? I've never seen you."

"Oh..i.." I swallowed. Just say percy already! I thought angrily, mad that i couldn't even say a sentence to this girl "Percy. I'm Percy Jackson." I muttered.

"Annabeth Chase." She replied, before giving a devilish smirk that could send a freshman student running away. She walked past me, bringing a sweet vanilla scent with her, into the school, along with Drew and Thalia. I sighed with relief, half glad the exchange was over, before walking inside myself. I didn't know that wouldn't be the last time i spoke to the three of them.

The last scene…..

I cut the engine and glance behind me as Drew and Thalia did the same. Looking around, i quickly noticed a boy, about my year, standing beside the school doors, a little out of place. He had a blue shirt on, a flannel, and a pair of jeans like he couldn't care less about how he looked. He had messy raven black hair and beautiful eyes. Blue, with swirls and splashes of green like the sea. They were ….sea green. And the worst part was that i couldn't take my eyes of them.

"..have a boy eyeing us." I left my thoughts and looked at Drew and Thalia.

"I wasn't- i was just-" He began, his eyes widening and a cute blush began to rise to his cheeks.

"Oh, go away you dork." Drew sighed, rolling her eyes. Thalia shoved her shoulder as she slid off her bike.

"Hey, be nice to the new kid." She said in a false sweet tone, looking at him with concern. "Are you okay sweetie? Did Mommy Forget to give you lunch money?"

I suddenly felt a stab anger. Why did Drew and Thalia always think they could walk all over the new kids?

"Oh, fuck off Thalia." I said. Thalia took one quick glance at me before muttering something, looking down at her feet. I turned, letting only the slightest amount of concern tint my eyes. I had learned how to control emotions long ago, a skill i had to learn because of my mom….i shuddered, hiding that memory far away..

For some reason this boy called out to me. He slowly glanced up at me, and i realized i was staring. "Hey, what's your name? I've never seen you." I knew he was new, but i wanted to play ignorant. To test him.

"Oh..i.." he swallowed. I held back a smile. I could tell he was flustered, and to be honest it was cute. "Percy. I'm Percy Jackson." he finished in a mutter.

"Annabeth Chase." I replied, before giving him my devilish smirk, watching for his reaction. However, there wasn't one. He did nothing but nod politely. Now there's a boy that is hard to get.

Smiling inwardly, I walked right past him, knowing my girls would follow. Right before i turned down the left corridor, I glanced back one more time at those sea green eyes.
