Chapter 2:
Authors note: Hey guys, hope you liked the 1st chapter. I'll be writing longer chapters from now on. As always, review?
Annabeth's POV:
It was Tuesday and the day I was going to see Percy physically again after many months apart. I had my suitcase packed since last week and tucked away neatly in the corner of my room. So after I got up and put on a white t-shirt and some grey jeans and converse, I grabbed my suitcase and basically sprinted downstairs.
"Annabeth slow down, I know you want to get to the airport to see Percy again but you have to eat first." My dad said with a mouthful of bacon and eggs. "Alright, alright ill eat something" I replied a bit annoyed. "Your going to see Percy today?" Mathew asked. "Yes I am" I told him with a smile. "Where are you going to stay Annabeth?" asked Bobby curiously. "At Thalia's place" I said while getting up to put my plate in the sink. "Bye dad, bye guys, bye Susan" I said heading out the door.
LINEBREAKER after Annabeth gets to NY
"Hey Thalia, where are you? I thought you were picking me up" I asked into the phone. "I'm closer than you think" she replied, she sounded right next to me. As I turned around I was tackled by a bear tight hug, from none other than Thals. "Well nice to see you too" I said to her as she released me from her death grip. "Let's get to Goode before Percy does so I can surprise him" I said with a hint in my voice. "Okay let's go" she replied.
As Thalia drove to the school she said "hey, when we get there and girls are talking to Percy and flirting with him, don't freak out, ok?." Now I was a bit stunned, "why" was all I managed to say. "Let's just say, we're popular and a lot of girls throw themselves at him, don't take it personally. He has told them he has a girlfriend", Thalia replied cautiously. "Well lets see what happens when he starts running to the office this morning" I said smirking. "Oh, crap Annabeth has a plan" Thalia said looking worried.
As I walked down the long halls of Goode to find the office I ran into the one and only Nico di' Angelo. "Hey, I haven't seen you in forever!" He said a bit loud, "ssshhhh, I don't want Percy to know I'm here yet" I whispered. "Oh ok, we'll see you later Annabeth." Nico said walking away. Sometimes that boy is just plain weird. I went into the office and got my schedule, now time to find my locker, as I was walking down the hall I heard talking. "I told you Jasmine I don't want to go out with you! I HAVE A GIRLFRIEND!", it was Percy's voice.
As I leaned in closer to get a better view I saw him there, with a dark green shirt and black jeans and converse. "She doesn't have to know, I haven't even seen her before. How do I know she even exists?" The girl that was probably 'Jasmine' said. Now I was quite ticked off, she was hitting on my boyfriend when clearly he didn't want to talk. "I need to get to my class, can I go now?" Percy asked pleadingly. "Whatever" Jasmine said while walking away swinging her hips a bit to much.
Percy's POV:
I was absolutely tired of Jasmine constantly trying to go out with me and kiss me, and the fact that the swim team and Jasmine herself didn't think that Annabeth was real ticked me off even more. But that wouldn't stop me from being happy today though, Annabeth had a surprise for me and I wasn't going to let anyone or anything spoil it. Well I'm in my last class of the day since we had a short schedule today. Lunch was in about 10 minutes, but luckily it was Paul's class or Mr. Blofis at school anyway. The bell rang and I headed off to the cafeteria to grab some food, 'cause man was I starving! As i was walking to grab some food I was stopped by the one and only Jasmine and her posse. "Hey Percy, wanna sit with me at lunch today?" she asked while pointing to herself. "No, i never wanted to sit with you at lunch before . Can I go to my friends now? i begged, eager to leave. "Well you should sit with me" she said while dragging me to the 'popular table' and sitting me down next to her.
I decided to stay for a bit and leave when she wouldn't notice. I looked over to the table i usually sit at with the gang, surprisingly they weren't there. After a few grueling minutes at the table a speaker came on saying "Will my boyfriend 'Seaweed Brain' come to the middle of the cafeteria?". I was absolutely stunned. I looked around and everyone seemed to be looking around so I knew it was for real, and not a hallucination. I looked to the middle of the cafeteria and saw Annabeth standing on top of a makeshift stage out of tables. I stood up and ran to her, I heard Jasmine gasping and she looked either really mad or sad or angry, maybe all of them? I ran to the table and jumped up, i picked up Annabeth and swung her around.
"Seaweed Brain put me down!" she shouted happily. I set her down hugging her tight and then i gave her a kiss on the lips. (cliche i know). Lucky me she kissed back eagerly, tangling her hands in my hair. I put my hands around her waist and pulled her closer, then Thalia just had to ruin the moment.
A/N: I love cliff hangers. Come back for chapter 3 when they go to camp and find out some surprising news! CX
