Hi so I thought I would update again today because I had a few PMs saying they really liked the first chapter so thank you to them. Also thanks for following and reviewing it means a lot so thank you. Anyway here is the second chapter to The science experiment enjoy!

Percy's pov:

What in Hades was I thinking I don't even know her why would I care for her she's a brat. Why did I even get her out I could have just saved myself, well...

Her face reminded me of my mum when Gabe nearly killed us, she was just stood there the fear took over her she was just stood there in shell shock, at first I wasn't going to help her but then I realised that I would be just as bad as that man who nearly killed that poor innocent girl, and I was not going to sink down to his level.

Annabeth may be popular and rich and have an amazing life but I wasn't just going to abandon her, I was not going to cause yet another death despite how much I disliked her.

People soon where crowding around us, well Annabeth. I had the head teacher unfortunately me and Mr Healy don't get along he thinks I'm a trouble maker because I'm so quiet, he doesn't care how I' am he just doesn't want to sign a load more paperwork than he has to.

For a brief moment Annabeth turned around and her stormy grey eyes met my dull sea green eyes, but just like that it was gone.

The fire was soon put out took them long enough though they should have been here straight away but they weren't more like half an hour seriously the fire station it like five minutes away.

They called my mum who got down here even before the fire department she kept fussing over me until they took me away in an ambulance my mum said she would meet me there. As for Annabeth I have no idea maybe she was taken to the hospital as well.

Annabeth's pov:

I was rushed away to hospital immediately, I didn't even get a chance to see Percy again. My older brother Malcolm came he didn't live with us he was 24 he said he left dad a message and didn't even tell our step mum, she wouldn't have cared anyway she was the reason Malcolm left.

My mind was blurred the only thing I could think about was Percy, where was he? Was he ok? I didn't know anything and the next thing I knew was that out of my mouth slipped,

"Malcolm when we get to the hospital find Percy Jackson I need to speak to him." Malcolm just nodded and sat next to me as the doctors closed the ambulance doors, and we drove off.

2 hours later:

Apparently I had fallen asleep in the ambulance and woke up in a hospital bed just as the doctor looking after me came in.

"Ahh Miss Chase I hope you're feeling ok I have checked you over but everything was clear you can discharge yourself whenever. "

Malcolm and I said our thanks to the doctor, then I said to Malcolm,

"Did you find Percy is he alright?" Malcolm chuckled and then replied,

"I spoke to his mum Sally lovely lady by the way and she said that Percy was fine and that he was asking if you were ok so I told her what the doctor told you."

A smile crept onto my face and Malcolm seemed to notice.

"What happened back at school Annabeth." My eyes sped and shot daggers in his direction knowing that someone was bound to ask me that sooner or later.

I decided to tell him the whole story, well kind off, I left out the parts about the scar and how Percy held me into his chest I really don't think it's necessary to tell him about that.

He nodded along as I told him what happened. He seemed quite surprised actually that I wasn't the one that started a fire, him knowing how useless I' am at chemistry, I just playfully punched him in the chest and huffed.

We soon got out of the hospital and by now it was about 3 so there was no point going back to school not that I was expected to or anything I just didn't want my perfect attendance to go to waste even though I was assured by one of my teachers before I left the hospital that it wouldn't.

I decided that I wanted to stay at Malcolm's that night after all it was a Friday, plus my dad would have been working late and I don't really want to be tortured by my step mum, I mean seriously I was just involved in a very horrible fire I don't need her breathing own my neck the whole time.

Malcolm dropped me off at home first to get some clothes and stuff then I quickly got back in the car and at that same moment I just remembered something... I have to get the twins the twins.

"Malcolm, I have to pick the twins up from school." I sad frantically, Malcolm sighed and muttered something about me always forgetting things once again like I said I could have been killed today.

Even though Malcolm hates our step mum he adores the twins and sometimes they stay round at Malcolm's he would do anything for them and me.

When we picked them up their little eyes lit up at the sight of Malcolm they ran over to us and Malcolm picked them both up. Once we were in the car Malcolm and I tried to tell them what happened earlier but instead they kept asking m questions like:

"Did a prince save you? Was it scary? Are you dead? And my personal favourite, 'Wow my sister's a ghost wait until I tell all the kids at school.' Malcolm and I giggled and I replied,

"No a prince didn't save me some quiet boy did, yes it was very scary, no I'm not dead, and lastly no I' am not a ghost."

The twins just giggled to themselves in the back and the rest or the car journey was filled with peace and quiet, well about as much quiet as it can get with two kids sat in the back.

Percy's pov:

I hated hospitals there was always something about them that made me feel nauseous. I think it's all the pain in my life I was born here treated here and hopefully I won't die here this place is sad, on my last day I want nothing more than people to act like they do now treat me like a nobody, at least that way people won't have that pain of missing me, maybe if they do care which they don't I might see them in the afterlife if that's even real.

You see I always believed that there was something after death even if it was Hell but now I'm not sure maybe there is just nothing maybe it's just darkness for all eternity I don't know. Now maybe its best if I just faded away nobody would care, pain follows me it won't leave me alone until it finally kills all of me. I know it's depressing but that's just my life and nothing will ever change that.

The doctor checked me over and said I was fine to leave, but before we went I asked my mum to see if she could find out if Annabeth was ok, she smiled slightly before leaving the room. I loved my mum she was the only person I ha she didn't understand me but she tried her best. The thing was nobody could ever understand me I was unreadable mysterious and I hoped to keep it like that.

My mum came back a few minutes later, she told me that she had run into Annabeth's brother Malcolm and he said that Annabeth was fine my panic level suddenly shot down and I relaxed as much as I could regarding the circumstances.

I soon discharged myself and mum and I drove in silence home. The only thing I could think about was Annabeth but why she was a brat and I knew that, it's not like she cared about me.

And from that moment I decided that Annabeth would never have anything to do with me and I wouldn't her.

So that was chapter 2 I hope you all enjoyed it the next chapters will be longer hopefully I just wanted to post this chapter the next day so anyway I don't know when will update again possibly tomorrow or sometime in the week.

Review, thanks!
