Percy's POV
"Jackson!" I jump three feet in the air and realize that I had dozed off in Mr. Chase's class again. Crap. "Yes sir?" I asked while trying to keep my heavy eyelids from closing. "I am done dealing with this crap. Office! Now!" He yells at me while I scramble out the door. "Jackson!" He yells again as I walk back inside the classroom. "You will be staying after school Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for tutoring until your grades improve." "But sir..." I start to complain. "No buts Jackson. Office!" I look up to meet his eyes and I see that he has a twinkle in his eyes that I have only seen once before and that was when he talked about her. Oh no. "Yes sir" I grumble thinking about what he just did.
Annabeth's POV
"Annabeth? Are you okay?" My dad asks me as I slowly come back to the world after I had been spacing off for quite some time. I wanted to tell my dad that I was not okay and that he needed to find the hottest boy at school another tutor, but when I looked at my dad and I saw that pleading look on his face, I sighed. "Yeah dad, I'm okay." I said with another loud sigh. "So you'll tutor him?" My dad said with those sad, pleading puppy dog eyes. "Fine!" I yell just to make it dramatic because you know, I'm a teenager and I won't always be a teenager. "Yes!" My dad yells as he pumps his fist in the air and does a victory dance. "You'll tutor him Monday, Wednesday, and Friday after school until 5:00. Okay?" He says looking at me with a raised eyebrow. "Yeah. Oh and dad…" "Yes Annabeth?" He turned around so he could make eye contact because I had complained to him yesterday for not looking me in the eyes when I talked. I always thought it was because he was busy, but he told me he couldn't because my eyes were the exact same color as my mom's. Stormy gray. "Don't ever do that little victory dance again" I said as I tried not to grin. Even though I am still upset about my mom leaving me when I was only 5 I am glad I still have someone to love and care for me.
