Chapter 2

I get my bachelors degree in stalking

(A/N: hello! I'm BACK with chapter 2, I hope you enjoy, and I hope you don't think Annabeth is too much of a stalker, but she's the daughter of Athena! She can't just NOT know! So yeah, on with the story)

Annabeth's POV

I just couldn't get to sleep last night. I stayed awake thinking about Sam and his family. There was something unnaturally odd about his family tree.

After about and hour of laying in my bed I finally got up and took my laptop (which I got from Athena as a graduation present, which is think was more of just "congratulations on making it to 18 most of them don't" present, but it was still an enchanted laptop that helped me find things that aren't normally on Google search results.) I searched up "Sam Winchester".

Apparently, yes he has a brother named Dean, and yes, his mom died. It was in a fire when Sam was newly born.

I found a picture of Dean, John, and his mom, Mary. They looked like a happy family. I was searching for a long time, I had almost 15 different tabs of different information about Sam's past.

It was about 6:15 when Percy woke up to see me staring at a picture of Dean. I jumped as he touched my shoulder and I slammed the laptop lid out of shock and also hoping he didn't get the wrong idea. I looked at him.

"For the love of Aphrodite Percy you scared the life out of me!" I exclaimed.

Percy frowned, "who was that?"

"What?" I questioned, knowing exactly what he was talking about but hoping we could nicely avoid the subject.

"The guy that you were staring at."

"Oh," I opened the laptop the image of Dean appeared there again. He was smiling slightly at the camera.

"Yes," Percy said coolly

"Uh, that's Dean," I said slowly, hoping Percy wouldn't jump to conclusions.

"And who is Dean?" Percy said sitting up more and turning on the lamp so the blue light of the laptop wasn't so intense.

"Well-" I started, thinking of a way to tell Percy I was suspicious of our neighbour.

"Annabeth, don't tell-"

"Percy I've never met him,"

"So now you just see a picture of him and you're in love? Why were you searching him up anyway? Who is he?!"

"Percy calm down! I'm not in love with him. I'm in love with you," Percy looked at me; he looked relieved but still confused.

"Okay, but who in Hades is he?" Percy asked.

"His name is Dean Winchester and he's Sam's Brother," I said, probably too fast.

"What?" Percy looked at me with a blank face.

"I just had this feeling about Sam, and I had to please my curiosity"

Percy shook his head, "you confuse me Annabeth," he mumbled

Sam's POV

During class I pretty much tried to make sense of last night. I went out for a walk because I kept having nightmares. Then I ran into Percy and Annabeth, it was nice and everything but at this point I don't know what to think about my new neighbors. It was odd that they were outside at the same time as me.

Something's up with my new neighbors, I don't know what but there is something.

Annabeth's POV

I put on my Yankees cap and slid outside of the apartment and stood in the hallway. I pressed my ear against the door to Sam's apartment. No sound, maybe he was out. I sat down next to his door and assessed the situation; I ended up sitting there thinking about my grades.

Eventually someone appeared at the end of the hallway, I just about stood up and went into my apartment, then I remembered I was wearing my Yankees baseball cap and I stayed where I was observing the new figure.

He approached and as he got closer I realized with a pang that it was Dean Winchester. He walked up to Sam's door and looked like he was going to knock, but he didn't. He raised his hand again, but then dropped it.

He glared at the door for a while muttering something I stood up and walked closer to him I could make out words.

"Should...cell him...? Dad..mmm..missing...only two weeks...I should...no... Sammy... boat unless...gone...mmm...time..."

Cell and boat made no sense, but he was mumbling so I guess it does.

He stepped back as if he decided what to do, I leaned against the wall as he passed me.

I stood in front of HB pizza, waiting for Percy to arrive.

I saw a figure in the distance, then I realized it was two people rather than just one. They approached, and I waved when I realized it was Sam and Jessica.

They just ignored me and walked up to the pizza place, I stared at them like "um hello?" It wasn't that weird that they were here, the pizza place was only 2 blocks away from Stanford.

"Hello?" I said and Sam looked at me confused then he shook his head and walked into HB pizza.

"What the hell?!" I whisper-shouted. Then I realized I was wearing my Yankees baseball cap.

"Oh" I muttered and took it off, hoping that no mortals saw me randomly appear right there.

I continued to wait for another three minutes until Percy arrived.

"Finally!" I said in annoyance

Percy shrugged and smiled. We walked in and took a seat I'm the corner. We ordered a Hawaiian and a meat lover's pizza, then talked for a long, long time.

After pizza Percy and I went back to the apartment, it was rather late and their wasn't much else to do... Percy TRIED to find something good on TV that we both liked (I wanted knowledge network and Percy wanted to watch "free Willy" which was playing on one of the movie channels) so we decided to just go to bed.

Percy fell asleep rather quickly, but I stayed awake. I just stared at the ceiling listening to Percy snore and imagining what it would be like if Nico snored too.

Finally I got out of bed and looked at my calendar, I don't know why but I usually do that when I have nothing to do.

It's been almost 2 weeks since we started at Stanford. It's also about one and a half weeks till Halloween.

I don't have a costume and I didn't know if I'd need one, but sometimes it's good to go out to Halloween parties anyway, for the free food. I know Percy is probably dressing up like a fish and Nico will most likely be the Grim Reaper. I think I might be a warrior or a Viking... Maybe I could be a-

My thought train just stopped. Something was off. Something from the next room... I made a mental checklist, Percy continued to snore along with the soft breathing of Nico, the dull sounds of bugs were still there. Their wasn't any extra sounds, something was missing. I wasn't quite sure how I knew something was wrong, it's some sixth sense that told me something was off. I pressed my ear against the wall, I couldn't here anything unusual, most likely it was my imagination. I heard a thump. 'Oh' I thought, either Sam or Jessica had waken up, and he or she just got out of the bed. I moved to the door and looked out the peep hole, nothing. Then I heard a door being opened and Sam walked past quickly.

I counted to ten as Sam walked down the hall way, then I quickly opened the door (creaky doors suck) and slipped out into the corridor, then I closed the door and tip toed down the hall, down the stairs and out the door.

I saw Sam walk across the field and disappear around the corner. I pulled out my Yankees baseball cap and put it on then ran after Sam.

I finally found him sitting on a bench staring at the stars, he was laying on his back with his hands behind his head. I walked closer, he was thinking of something, he had that "I have absolutely no idea what to think about this" look on his face.

Suddenly he sat up and stared right at me, he looked confused. It took a lot of will power not to move. I new he could notice if suddenly a bunch of footprints started appearing in the grass.

But if he would see that he might notice the pressed down grass beneath my feet now.

I bit my lip and held my breath.

Oh crap. I silently cursed myself as Sam noticed the grass underneath my feet.

"What?" He whispered looking at the ground. Then his eyes lit up in terror, but he shook his head "I swore I was done hunting!" He whisper-shouted at me and walked off. I watched him go, confused.

When Sam was out of sight I turned around and walked back. I took off my Yankees cap just in time, I turned the corner and literally ran into Sam. "Ouf!" I said and stumbled back but I caught my balance and blinked "oh, hey Sam!" I said sounding surprised. 'Geez I'm just to tired we literally walked around the Apartment building, just in different directions. "Hey Annabeth, midnight walk again?" He asked.

"Oh yeah I do these like almost ALL the time, I never seem to get to sleep sometimes... Heh heh. Same for you?"

He nodded.

'Yeah no' I thought 'you must've woken up thinking about something and went outside to clear your thoughts'

"Well I was just going in now so I'll see you tomorrow," I smiled

He nodded "I was going in too."

We stared at each other awkwardly for what seemed like hours then I breathed in and said "well, I've got classes tomorrow!" Then I walked over to the door and went inside

"Well THAT was awkward," I muttered.

Sam's POV

It was just too coincidental that I met Annabeth outside both times that I had a weird dream. Of course the first time it was one that I was hunting with Dean, there was wear wolves and they were a lot of them, they attacked Dean and killed him. And I could move my limbs I just stood their in shock my flashlight shining right on the wear wolves as they ripped Dean apart.

This time my dream made no sense. I was laying on the bed with my eyes closed and when I opened them Jessica was pinned to the ceiling, bleeding from her belly, she just stared at me then burst into flames. It was terrifying.

I woke up sweating and breathing heavily, so I just went outside. Then I thought I saw an invisible spirit of some sort, two foot prints were visible in the grass, looking back on it now, it was probably just my panicked mind making things up but of that weird dream.
