As we arrived to his apartment I kept on thinking about the conversation we would have when I told him about my feelings.
"Ok. We're here."
He grabs the key and puts it in the lock. But before his hand reaches the door, it swings open.
"Hey babe."
In front of me a beautiful red head, slim body figure and a very sexy looking dress. But to my taste too much cleavage. Ugh. But wait did she just call Percy, babe?!
The blood rises to my cheeks as I know I shouldn't be here. Percy's face begins to become red too.
"Oh…. Um… Hey Ray, what are you doing here?"
"Nothin babe just wanted to give you a surprise."
She looks at me with pure disgust.
"But I didn't know that you were having company. Oh well, so let me introduce mysel—"
"Uh wait um lets do inside, the introduction will be better instead of freezing out here."
"kay whatever." She does an eye roll so perfectly annoying, that you can tell that its not the first time she has done it. She flips her hair and goes back inside.
When she goes in Percy does a big sigh. Then turns to me.
"Hey Im sorry she's a bit unpredictable I don't know why she just does this. Sorry."
"Its ok, no problem."
"If you say so. Come on lets go before she starts getting ideas in that head of hers."
He opens the door for me and I walk in.
The first thing I notice is the wallpaper colour and the shelves around the hallway. Its beautiful, the walls are pastel blue and the shelf a beautiful dark shade of see green. As I look closer I saw the pictures of him at the beach and different shells on the shelf. Along the walls you say an anchor a picture of and old sailor, framed. You'd think you just walked into an old sailors home.
Then to break my mood was that girl again.
"Hey, girls. Im gonna go change stay here visit around if you like. Be back in 2 minutes."
"Kay, babe see yaaaaa."
Ugh I swear that girl is getting on my nerves. But just for Percy's sake, I am gonna be nice.
"So… um… Hey, My names Annabeth, a friend of his."
"I'm Rachel, ok so let me get this straight with you ok? Percy is mine, so don't try to make a move on him. You think I haven't seen your eyes when you stare at him. So. You. Stay. Away. From. Him. Annabitch!"
Too stunned by what I just heard I just stood there like an idiot no one had every called me bitch much less annabitch.
I was just about to tell her to mind her own business when Percy came down from the stairs.
"Ok ladies lets do introductions."
Rachel puts on an angelic smile and looks toward m.
"Hey i'm Rachel and Percy is my boyfriend,"
As soon as she said boyfriend my heart sunk. It went deeper down then tartarus, it shattered it felt like someone had taken a knife and shoved it in my heart, deeper and deeper until it went through me. I could feel the tears coming and my heart quickened a pace.
"Yeah… um… ok, so this is my girlfriend."
He awkwardly stood there waiting, until I finally remembered it was my turn to talk.
"Ni-ice to me-eet you Rachel, i'm Annabeth and Percy is just my friend."
"So, ladies want a drink?"
Riiiiing. Riiiiiiing.
Shit my phone. I'll just use it as an excuse to get out of here.
"Oh hey sorry Percy I should take this its my mom."
"Ok no problem go ahead."
I walked out of the room. It hurt so much, I knew I loved him but why was I so surprised to see that he had a girl, after all he looked really cute. Taking my phone out of my pocket I saw that it was Thalia who what calling. I'll just call her later. So I declined the call. Looked behind my shoulder to see if they were listening, just in case I said a few words as if my boss was calling me. Then I went back to the living room to see what they were doing.
"Hey Percy, sorry but I have got to go my boss just called me and said that he needed a person fast right now and I wouldn't want to loose my job, is that ok?"
He saw my face and new that it wasn't for discussion.
"Yeah, sure. You can come over next time."
"Ok thanks. Sorry, bye see ya, nice meeting you Rachel."
I turned walked through the door. I ran all the way back home with tears streaming down my face.
