Percy's POV:

Yeah, my day was going horribly. First of all, I couldn't find any clean jeans, so I had to borrow some of Jason's. So I wanted to watch Finding Nemo to relax, BUT I COULDN'T FIND IT! And then, when we got to the concert, apparently I was too dam (ahaha) tall for other people's liking. Everybody kept asking me to move! So when that blonde girl behind me asked me to move, I finally snapped. I know what you're thinking, first world problems. But I had a bad day, and don't tell me that you've never acted like that before on a bad day.

I did feel quite bad afterwards, and I wanted to turn around and say sorry but she seemed too frosty to want to look at me. She chatted amiably to Jason but didn't really seem to care about me too much. I couldn't see her too well in the lighting, but I knew she was a bit shorter than me, with curly blonde hair and an athletic build. Sure, she was pretty, but I had a feeling hat she didn't like me that much and I didn't blame her.

Then I was extremely shocked to realise that she knows Piper! And she wrote one of her songs, if not more. Piper described her as one of her very best friends, which also made me wonder why she was in the audience instead of backstage.

I couldn't really get the mysterious girl out of my head that night. I just met an awesome songwriter and nice human being and I was rude to them. If my mom found out, she would kill me.

I woke up pretty early, made myself some tea and broke into reserves of blue cookies. I save them for mind-boggling occasions. I sat at the breakfast bar stool for a while until Jason woke up because I had to go with him and his dorky band to some meeting. They call themselves "The Blood Of Olympus", which is a strange name that does bring back some memories. Fact is, I knew all of the members from high school. They started their band for a laugh and tried to get me to join too (that was a battle they'll never win). To be fair, their band is pretty good and they're all excellent musicians. Frank Zhang on drums, his girlfriend Hazel on the keyboard and voice, Nico DiAngelo (Hazel's half brother) on bass guitar and Reyna on guitar and voice. Jason was main voice and occasional guitar. And my friend Grover plays the reed pipes now and then.

So I tagged along with Jason because he was literally about to pee himself. He was running around our apartment, changing his 'outfit' every five minutes, because he was going to meet THE Piper McLean, who he's always had a crush on. I figured I would try to calm him down and help him keep his cool around Piper. Because honestly, he's such a dork around pretty girls.

We arrived at Olympus Records LA pretty early with the rest of the band and my-well-friend Rachel. To be honest, I'm wasn't sure where we stood because I was pretty sure she liked me romantically and I liked her as a friend. #Awkward.

I passed my dad as I walked towards studio 12, who winked at me and smiled as I passed him. Poseidon was one of the big bosses of Olympus Records. It was kind of awkward, seeing him mostly every day, because he left my mom before I was born.

I pushed open the door to studio 12 and we walked in. The band started plugging in amps and whatnot, so I offered to get coffee for everyone. I took their orders and went out of the side door, downstairs to the coffee shop. After I ordered them all I brought them back upstairs, only to realise that I got them all wrong so I had to reorder them all. I got them for free though, because my dad partially owns the place. *hair flip*

I was walking back upstairs slowly when I heard some more people enter Studio 12 through the main door. I heard a familiar girl's voice apologising and Jason being all nice and polite.

Then he says: "Annabeth?!"

What? That blonde girl who I was rude to? It's a small world, after all...

I walked in, set the coffee down and turned to Annabeth to apologise. Again, I noticed how pretty she was, dressed in business clothes with a determined look on her face. I looked her in the eyes to apologise, but I didn't expect to be looking into cold, calculating, stormy gray eyes.

I know this is a very short chapter compared to the last one, but I just wanted to show that Percy wasn't an asshole and that he's actually very sweet. Don't forget to review!
