Percabeth High School
Percy's POV
I don't even know what to say. I had never even scene her before but already I kind of liked her. I know its weird, even though I've only known her a few minutes. You'd think a person like me, someone who is followed by girls 24/7 would take a while to get attracted to a girl. She was so pretty. I really wanted to ask her out but one I was nervous and two she was a new student and I didn't want to make her feel too weird to early.
I talked into my French class and sure enough, that Annabeth girl was sitting there. I was so into her, I didn't notice my teacher walking toward me talking to another student holding a cup of hot coffee. We walked right into each other and coffee spilled all over both of us. Classic. The whole class laughed. My pants were boiling hot. I jumped up and down like there were ants in my pants. It was pretty pathetic and embarrassing.
At the end of the day, I was closing my locker door when I saw Thalia pointing me out to Annabeth. I quickly turned away before Annabeth could see me looking.
Just then, this girl named Jamie came right up to me.
"Um Percy," She said. "About going to the dance on Saturday night."
"Oh…um…that," I said. "I still haven't decided yet."
"Ok," she said. I totally forgot that the dance was only in three days. I didn't even have anyone to go with. There was no way I would go with Jamie. Then an idea popped into my head. I could ask Annabeth. Just to go as friends.
I walked over to her.
"Annabeth," I said. "Can I ask you something" Thalia gave Annabeth a grin and then walked away.
"I was wondering if you would like to go with me to the school dance this Saturday night, you know, just as friends."
"Sure," Annabeth said. "I'd love to go."
"Ok," I said. As I walked over to go out the door, I looked back to see Annabeth and Thalia screaming in joy.
