First period was painless enough. All of Annabeth's supplies were neat and organized. She sat in the back by herself listening to her AP Government teacher ramble on about how flawed American government was until the bell rang. She packed up her stuff and shouldered her backpack, ready to meet Percy in Geometry second period. But her plans were lead astray when a girl stepped in front of her.
"Hey, I'm Becca. You're new here, right?" Becca's long brown hair was straight and went all the way down to her butt. She had on a lot of black eye makeup that was surrounded by bright pink eye shadow. She wore shorts so short, Annabeth didn't even have to see behind Becca to know that her butt was hanging out. Her tight tank top was covered by a fishnet shirt, like it somehow made it less scandalous. Her smiled was one that automatically made Annabeth groan. She'd seen it before, on her Step-Mom. It screamed fake and tolerating. Didn't actually care, just hoping to get something out of being so nice to Annabeth.
Before Annabeth could answer her, Becca continued, "I mean, you must be new. I would have noticed you earlier. You're like, so pretty."
"I-"
"Oh my god, is your hair color natural?"
Annabeth took her blond ponytail in her hand, "Yeah."
"Whoa," Becca's face lite up. "That's so cool. And you're so tan, are you from around here?"
Annabeth cracked her fingers behind her back in aggravation, but answered Becca anyway, "I'm actually from California, but I've been back and forth between there and New York for a long time."
"Whoa, that's like, so cool." She took Annabeth's arm in her's, leading her out into the hallway. "We have to hangout sometime. Here," she took out her phone, "What's your number?"
"I don't have one," Annabeth shrugged.
Becca looked at Annabeth like she suddenly turned into an alien, "You don't have a number? What?"
Annabeth laughed in amusement, "A phone."
Becca stared at her for a moment before answering, "Weird." Becca's face lite right back up as she walked Annabeth down the halls, "But it's okay, because we can still be friends. I-"
Becca was cut off by her phone vibrating in her hand, her face went blank as she read the text on the screen. "Whoa, cool!" She looked up at Annabeth, "Guess what? Two more hot guys! I love new school years. Jess just told me. She's talking to them by the science building, come on!" And Becca dragged her through the halls.
When they arrived at what was apparently the science building, Annabeth laughed. She saw an annoyed Percy standing with a confused Jason and a girl with short blond hair and tight jeans.
Becca leaned over to Annabeth and whispered, "Whoa, dibs on the hot one with black hair. Looks like Jess already has dibs on the blond guy. It's okay though, you can still stare."
When they walked up to them, the girl with short blond hair who Annabeth figured was Jess, turned to Becca, "You're here!" she faced the boys, "Percy, Jason, this is Becca."
Becca flashed a smile at Percy and then turned to Annabeth, "And guys this is…" Becca frowned and said in a cold tone,b "Oh my god I didn't even get your name."
"It's Anna-"
"So where are you guys from?" Becca asked Percy.
Percy smiled and took a step toward Becca. He gave her his hottest smirk that made Annabeth forget what was going on for a minute. Percy offered out his hand to Becca, which she took with her own shaking hand. "Thank you so much," he said seductively and soft, "For bringing over by girlfriend."
Percy then turned to Annabeth and kissed her so hard and passionately that she forgot that Becca, Jess, and Jason were standing there. Annabeth melted into his lips and gripped his scruffy black hair. He pulled away with a smirk, "Hey babe, how was first period?"
When Annabeth caught her breath, she answered, "Made a friend. Her name's… uhm," still wrapped in Percy's arms, she looked over to Becca, "Oh my god!" she said in a mocking tone, "I didn't even get your name!"
Becca put her hands on her hips in anger, "Seriously?" she grabbed Jess's hand who grabbed Jason's, "Come on guys, let's go."
Jason loosened her grip from his hand, "Actually I'll go with Annabeth and Percy."
Before the girls could react, Piper walked up and kissed her boyfriend on the cheek. "Hey Superman, who are they?" she asked sweetly.
Jess angrily grabbed Becca's arm and stormed away.
"Nice to meet you," Piper said as they walked away.
