(AN): Hi Welcome to my story Sorrow. I hoped you enjoyed chapter one. I spent 2 hours trying to figure out how to even publish the story. Oh and I got my first review! YAY! I gave them a cookie. In case you wanted to know I'll be updating fast most of the time because I've wanting to write this story for a while but never found the courage to. Anyway, I'll stop rambling and let you read (by the way there's a perks of being a wallflower reference)

Chapter 2: Percy's Aggressive Blackouts
She thought he was cute. Annabeth loved the way he blushed when their hands touched. But there was something to him. Something in his eyes told her that he'd break any moment. She immediately knew she wanted to be friends with him. Before all of this everything was complicated. Her mom left her when she was 5 years old. Her dad, 10 years later, re-married a woman named Helen, who we found out had two kids. Matthew and Bobby are their names.
Helen was another woman who ended up leaving her dad. But the worst thing was that she left Matthew and Bobby behind. They were only 10 when she left 2 years ago. Now Annabeth is 17 and her "brothers" are both 12. The saddest thing to Annabeth was her dad crying. She once saw him crying when they were watching a movie where the wife left the husband. He was frank with Annabeth and told her that he didn't want her to tell Matthew and Bobby that he cries because he doesn't want them to worry about "daddy" crying.
When she got the guts to ask her dad if she can go to Goode, he had said yes (obviously) and she was ecstatic. She always wanted to be a singer. Now here she was listening to Percy and completely ignoring Ms. Muse (Percy told her the name of the teacher). "So, those are my friends. Nico, the goth, Thalia, the punk, and Grover, the softie. Annabeth laughed. "Interesting group of friends." She said. Percy just smiled at her. "Yeah. Nico has a crush on Thalia, so if you join our clique, don't worry about their constant flirting." Percy informed.
"Should be fun" Annabeth replied

Percy was asked to show Annabeth around. "So, your name's not 'New Here'?" Nico asked. Annabeth laughed. A noise Percy would never get over. "No. It's Annabeth." Nico nodded. Percy glanced to the right and expected Grover to be there but saw no one. "Uh…Guys where's Grover?" Percy questioned. They started looking around for him. Then in the distance, Percy heard something being slammed against the lockers. Realization hit Percy. He sprinted towards the sound and saw scrawny little Grover being pushed back and forth against the lockers. "HEY!" Percy exclaimed. Luke and his friends, Ethan Nakamura and Dylan Richards, were bullying Grover again. "Hey, look who's here to save the day!" Luke taunted
"Just let him go puke." Thalia said dangerously quiet. Nico had a hard scowl etched on his face and even Annabeth looked dangerous. Her eyes started hard and cold at the bullies. "Look, I don't know who you are, but leave Grover alone." Luke seemed to just realize she was there and looked at her. "Well, because you said it so nicely…" Luke grabbed Grover by the underarms and threw him towards them on the ground.
"Oof!" Grover landed on the ground with a sickening crack. Thalia, Nico, and Annabeth ran towards him and started waking him up. Percy stood there, staring at Grover's lifeless body and then staring back at the laughing jerks. "Why are you just standing there, dumbass!" Ethan insulted. And then Percy saw darkness.

He only remembers the screaming and the blood.
"PERCY!" He heard Annabeth but chose to ignore her
He kept pounding on their faces. Over and over again.
"so much blood…" Percy murmured.
"PLEASE! STOP! IT HURT'S!" Luke yelled
"PERCY! STOP!" Annabeth was desperately trying to get him to stop killing them.
"Annabeth…she probably hates me…"
"percy…please…I'm sorry…" Luke said weakly almost passing out
He didn't stop not until the principle came.
"PERCY JACKSON!" Screamed the principle.
Now he was here in the front office waiting. Waiting for the principle to come and give him his punishment. He promised his mom he wouldn't have another blackout but… Luke, Ethan, and Dylan made him angry for what they'd done. Percy's hands were red with his and their blood. His knuckles were blue and purple from bruising. After 10 more minutes of waiting, Triton ran inside. " Woah, little brother. Are you okay?" He asked. Percy stayed silent. She hates me, he thought, probably thinks I'm a freak who lost his temper. "Hey I talked to the principle. He said you're off the hook this time but next time you're gonna get suspended like Luke, Ethan, and Dylan." Triton rambled. Percy stood "I wanna go home" Percy said in a sad and scared tone. "Ok." Triton simply said. And then they headed home together, with Percy still worried about Annabeth hating him.
