I'll pick the one I like the one I like best. Thanks! On with the story!
Annabeth's POV
I walked to my second period, which I happen to have with the ever famous Percy Jackson. My hands started to tremble slightly. The good news is that, I sit in the far back of the class room, quietly doing my work and only talk if the teacher talks directly to me or if there's a project with a partner. Whereas Percy has a seat in the front, where he eagerly talks with the teacher and chats with his friends.
I enter the room and wave to Hazel and Frank. Both of them are sweet hearts and are friends with Jason and the gang. They wave back, smiling brightly.
Hazel's tight, dark brown curls are tied in a green bandana. Her dark skin practically glows with excitement. Her eyes are like pools of melted gold. She has on a shirt matching her bandana and blue jeans, complemented with black converse.
Frank's army hair cut is the same as usual. Frank was the contrary to the image of a Chinese boy. Instead of a smaller frame, Frank is buff. But Frank is like a teddy bear to me. His dark eyes sparkle with a shy excitement. He has on a purple pull-over, baggy blue jeans, and black trainers.
I head for the back. None of my friends are in this class, but if I survive, I'll see Thalia, Piper, and Cordillia next period in our career starting class. We just pick an empty room in the school, and practice what we want to do for a living. Anyone can do this class as college credit, even 9th graders like Cordillia.
"Alright class," Mr. Blofis says, entering the class, "today, we will start a partner project." Chatter erupted from the room of teenagers. Mr. Blofis silenced them. "But, I will pick the partners." Groans replaced the excited chatter.
Great…now I don't know who my partner will be. Normally I ask Hazel or Frank, and even on one occasion, I asked Leo.
"I'll list off the names." He said, "Jason and Frank, Hazel and Calypso, Leo and Drew" this continued until he got to my name. "Annabeth and Percy"
Oh gods no.
Connor's POV
"The hero Jason, blah, blah, blah" Now Mr. Brunner didn't actually say that, but I kind of, accidentally, toned him out. What? It's had to concentrate when the girl you have a crush sits next to you. I keep glancing over to her, picking up little details I normally wouldn't.
The way she held her pencil, how her eyebrows furrowed when she made a mistake or didn't understand something, the way her hand mover across the paper, trying to get as much information as possible.
Though I did pick up on things that you see when you first look at Cordillia.
The way her hair curled and how it was the perfect combination of brown and blonde. The way her sea-green eyes sparkled in the light, adding so many other colors. How her lips curled in a smile or a lopsided grin. How her shoulders bounced when she laughed.
Whoa, Travis was right (that's a first), I've got it bad. So bad, it's as if I can her saying my name…wait…
"Connor!" Cordillia yells in my ear. I nearly fall out of my seat.
"Wh-what?" I say my face aflame.
"Didn't you hear Mr. Brunner? We're doing a project on two gods and/or goddesses."
"Uh…"
"Zoned out again?" she asks. That's right, she said again. What? She sits right next to me…what do you expect? She rolls her eyes.
"When you come over to my house tonight for the project, you can copy the notes." I narrow my eyes.
"Who said I'm going to be your partner?" she gives me a look that says, are-you-seriously-playing-this-game? I raise my hands in mock-surrender. "Fine, I give. What gods are we doing?"
"I want to do Poseidon!" she exclaimed. I roll my eyes. Cordillia always had an obsession with water and swimming. "Which one do you want to do?"
"Hermes"
"Of course. He is the god of thieves, and well," she holds out her hand with her eyebrow raised. I sheepishly hand over candy bar I stole from her locker. "you did steal my candy bar."
