Chapter 1

Annabeth

"No.. Please, Luke." I begged, huddled up in the corner of the room. His palm was raised to me, ready to strike and sting like a cobra. I bit my tears back, refusing to give him that satisfaction.

He came down on me, but just then the bell rang. A relived sigh almost left my lips, but I caught it just in time, luckily. He scowled down at me, as if I were a rat.

Right after he left I jumped up as quickly as my sore body would let me, and rushed to home room. I know I'd be late, I always was.

I crashed into another person and rub my head, my headache going from bad to severe. The boy squatted down and picked up all my materials, while I stood there like an idiot.

"Sorry." He apologized, smiling at me. I felt self conscious looking at him, he was…handsome. His black raven hair making him look like he just got out of bed, and his sea-green eyes smiling at me friendly. I realized I was just standing there like a complete idiot, so I took my books hastily from him and rushed away.

"H-hey! Wait up!" He tugged on my arm gently, I winced in pain, my bruise screaming in protest. He noticed my movement and pulled back quickly, "Sorry." He muttered, looking downcast.

"W-what?" I stuttered, praying Luke was no where to see I was talking to this cute stranger. Wait- what am I saying?

He rubbed the back of his neck, his smile still plastered. He looked so goofy, I couldn't help but feel the corners of my mouth tug up.

"I'm a total idiot and don't know where my classes are." He started to explain, grinning when he realized I was smiling at him.

"I'm new." He added, franticly searching for his schedule in his unorganized binder.

I rolled my eyes at him skeptically, "Uh, then go to the office." I replied coldly, making his eyebrows raise. I mentally slapped myself, that was way to harsh!

"Well… I kind of don't know where that is either." He replied sheepishly, to my relief shrugging off my cold shoulder.

"Oh ok." I replied softer, trying to be kinder to him. Wow, I was really mean. I mean, it wasn't my fault. It was that idiots fault, Luke.

"Do you know who your home room teacher is?" I asked casually, as if asking a lost kid if they knew where their mommy was.

He rolled his eyes playfully, "If I did, we wouldn't be in this situation." Right after he said that the bell rang, pronouncing us late. I groaned, grabbing him by his wrist.

"Just follow me, I'll take you to Mr. Collins. My home room teacher, he'll help." I explained, dragging him along.

We skidded to a halt at the door of the room, He just walked in all cool like, like he didn't even notice the class going on. Mr. Collins eyed him carefully, then looked over to me. I blushed slightly, hurrying inside. Some girls looked at the boy with interest and looked over to me in distaste.

"Sorry to disturb, but I'm sort of… lost." He apologized, the goofy smile still dancing on his lips.

"Look no farther, Mr. Jackson. Please take a seat, it seems I have the pleasure of having you for a student." Mr. Collins chuckled softly at the boy.

And the world just loves me. It turns out, there's an empty seat by me, and that's just where the boy sits. Typical.

Mr. C cleared his throat, "Now class, as you see, this is Mr. Jackson. Percy Jackson." Some girls smiled flirtatiously at him, and were losing their patients because Percy just regarded them all.

Mr. C. told us we could just talk for the five remainder minutes. Guess who decides to talk to me? Yep, you're right.

"So, obviously you know my name. What's yours?" Percy asked, turning his body to me so he could talk to me. I want to sneer and snarl at him, to tell him to get away before I claw his eyes out, but then that'd just be…disturbing.

"Annabeth." I heard myself reply quietly before I even process what I'm thinking. Something flashed in Percy's eyes.

"Nice name." He grinned, forcing me to blush madly at his words. I looked away, trying not to make a total fool out of myself.

"Thanks." I replied softly, wondering if he even heard me. His grin widened and I realized his cheeks were turning a little red at my thanks.

"Hello! You're Percy?" A kind voice asked from in front of me. I look up and see Rachel, I looked back down, taking sudden interest in my desk.

"Yepp! That'd be me." I can hear the stupid little grin in his voice. I wrinkle my nose, scorning myself. I shouldn't be so hostile to Percy if he's talking to other people.

I heard Percy and Rachel joking around, but right when the bell rang I bolted out of there as if Justin Beiber was in there.

I felt a someone staring at me from behind, so I turned around. My breath caught in my throat. Luke. Oh god, not another scene. He just smiled innocently at me, as if he wanted to just come over to me, scoop me up and carry me away to a fairytale. That's what I thought'd be when I started going out with him.

I mean, it was, at first. Then he became abusive, and I was just way to scared to back out, scared he'd not just hurt me, but permanently "get rid of me." I smiled back innocently and waved, knowing if I didn't there'd be a consequence later.

"Hey, you ok?" I heard someone ask from behind me. I froze, scared to turn around. That's when I noticed Luke was still watching, and he saw the person behind me. His gaze darkened and anger flamed in his eyes. I turned around, tears moistening my eyes. Why'd Percy have to talk to me? I helped him, why would he do this? I mean, I know he doesn't know, but still!

I nodded, trying to hide the fact that I was trembling. His eyebrow rose at me then shifted behind me. I felt someone's breath on my neck, and my hair rose.

"Hey." He whispered playfully, wrapping his arms around my waist. I plastered a fake smile on my face and turned to him, pretending to be super happy to see him. He kissed me on the head, and I heard Percy shift uncomfortably behind me, I noticed Luke's eyes flare with annoyance at Percy's interruptions.

"Who's this?" He asked snidely, Percy's eyebrows rose, amusement playing in his eyes at Luke's reaction. I silently begged Percy to stop, and he picked up because he held his hand out respectively, "I'm Percy Jackson." He smiled friendly, which Luke questioned.

"Uh, ok we have to go Percy." I responded quickly, trying to get to class as possible.

Percy's eyes widened in shock, "No!" He yelped, then ran his fingers through his hair, trying to think of something to say.

"I need your help still, I have no ideal where my schedule is." He said shyly, looking away.

"Why don't you get someone else to do that?" Luke growled menacingly. I noticed Percy's jaw tightened as he tried to maintain his composure, "Well, could you tell me where it was?" He retorted, then his eyes went back to me, look at me desperately.

"It's.. down the hall, that way." I said quietly, rushing off with Luke. I felt Luke's hand close around my wrist, his grip tightening. "Talk to him again, and you'll regret it!" He quietly snarled into my ear. I swallowed my fear and nodded numbly, walking into Geometry, lucky to me, I didn't have the same classes with Luke, but I did with Percy apparently. His eyes lit up immediately when he saw me, and he rushed over to me and plopped down next to me. I sighed, then realized he heard me. He pouted at me, staring at me in disbelief. "I can get up?" He shot the words at me, as if challenging me to tell him to get up.

I smile mischievously at him, "Seaweed Brain." I muttered under my breath. His eyebrows furrowed, "What'd you call me?" He asked.

I rolled my eyes. "Seaweed Brain. It suits you." I grinned at his mock hurt expression.

"Whatever, Wise Girl." He blurted out, leaning down to get a pencil from his bag. "Wow, thanks for that name, it just proves I'm smarter than you." I teased. That's when I noticed Rachel was on his other side. I stiffened in my seat, she shot daggers at me with her eyes. If looks could kill, I'd be long dead by now.

When he got back up he stuck his tongue out at me childishly. I knew he was kidding, but I didn't feeling like talking to him anymore, scared Rachel would tell Luke.

Half way through Mrs. Welch's explanation of our homework, Percy whispered to me, "Are you ok? Did I make you mad or something?" His tone is completely dumbfounded, and I give a small reassuring smile, but he can tell it doesn't match my eyes. "No, of course not." He looked back up before giving me a unconvincing look. I sighed, this boy would get me in so much trouble with Luke. Yet, why didn't I feel scared around him? I felt… better than I had in a long time. I felt protective. Maybe it was because he didn't like Luke, when everyone else did and never saw through his mask. But I did, and it's sad that it took this long to see that the loving, kind, wonderful Luke was just my eyes playing tricks on me. Yet Percy, Percy saw right through the minute he saw Luke, so for that, I guess I'll be friendlier than I have been. But not around Luke, of course.

So when the bell finally rung at the end of the day, I hurried to my locker and put my Greek Textbooks into my locker. I had already mastered pretty much every language, but I was better known for Greek.

"Hey Annie!" Percy said from behind my locker. I closed it and saw him, almost jumping out of my skin.

"Percy!" I hissed when he started bursting out in laughter at my response. I rolled my eyes and slapped his arm.

"Oh god! Dear Lord, Please stop!" He wiped his eyes of tears when I made a face at him, which made him laugh even harder.

"Shut up!" I hissed, everyone was staring at us. This stupid Seaweed Brain. He held his hands up to signal he was done, and I sighed in relief.

"What do you want anyways?" I grumbled, still upset he had a huge scene in the halls. I readjusted the strap on my messenger bag, he smiled down at me, his eyes twinkling with laughter. "I'm sorry, but your face… you looked like you were expecting Freddy Krueger." He explained, trying to muffle his smile.

I looked away, trying not to show how pale I went at the mention of that. I thought it had been Luke, coming to do god knows what to me. Something I'd have to cover up with makeup the next day, that's for sure.

"Whatever." Is all I came up with then I hurried my pace, trying to put distance between us in case Luke came.

"Where's your boyfriend?" Luke growled the next day. I stared at him in shock, "Right here…?" I gulped, scared he would slap me if I answered incorrectly. He leered at me, "You know what I mean." I looked away, waiting for the slap.

"Yo! Was up?" Nico called, I looked over to him and scowled instantly. Nico was so cheesy. He walked over to us, grinning. "Have you guys seen Percy?" Nico said after he and Luke exchanged a friendly hello.

I saw Luke's lip curl back in a snarl, then he stormed away. My pulse quickened, what did I do now?

"Why should I know?" I retorted, turning on my heel and walking to Chemistry. Right when I sat down, Percy bustled in, panting with how much he had run. "Am" Inhale, "I." Exhale "Late?" He panted, trying to catch his breath while everyone stared at him like he was an alien. I face palmed my self, "Percy, maybe you should sit down." I said gently, gesturing to his seat. His eyes lit up and he grinned at me, man was he a happy person. "Hey Annie." He grinned, sitting down. I made a face at him and pretended to fix my hair. I took it down, letting it cascade down my neck. I heard Percy inhale a breath and I looked over at him, eyebrow rose. His cheeks turned rosy and he tried to cover it with panting, as if trying to get over the running he had done. I blushed next to him, watching him out of the corner of my eye.
