DISCLAIMER: I don't own PJO
PERCY'S POV
I lay on my bed wondering. Why was Annabeth acting so unusual? Yes, Unusual, I simply couldn't bring myself to say mean. Annabeth wasn't mean. She was my best friend. It was just that something was wrong with her. And I mean that in a nice way.
Well, I couldn't sit here for all of my free time. I had to do something. So, I decided to head up to the Shooting fields to get in a little practice with a bow. Shooting wasn't exactly my favorite thing to do, mostly 'cause I'm not at all good at it. The Apollo kids try to help me out, but I never really enjoy it.
But I couldn't really think of anything else to do. Any other day I would of gone to the Sparring arena, but Annabeth would be there for the next hour, and I really didn't want to go anywhere near her, with her.....attitude. And I don't think she would be too excited about seeing me either. So, the sparring it was.
It was a nice walk, don't get me wrong. But for some reason, I couldn't really enjoy it. I kept looking over my shoulder. just to make sure that Annabeth wasn't looking. I absolutely did not want her seeing me.
"Percy?" said some kid. I looked over my shoulder to see, Daniel. Just Daniel. He never had parents. Except, of course for his Olympian Parent.
"Your actually here?" It was no secret how terrible I really was at archery.
"Don't rub it in." I grumbled back.
"Sorry. It's just that you are the last person I expected to see here. Finally gotten used to range weapons, huh?"
"Not exactly." I said.
"What then?"
"I just don't feel like sparring right now, okay?" I was trying to hide my tone of contempt.
"Alright, alright......ohhhhh, I know. Annabeth has sparring right now doesn't she?" said Daniel.
"Will you just get off my case!" I yelled back. He obviously wasn't getting the message.
"You know everyone knows that you guys are fighting. And there are rumors that Silena is going to do something about it."
"Like what?" I asked.
"No one knows.....probably just rumors though."
"Yah," I said. "Probably." I wasn't convinced. It was just like Silena to interfere with this kind of stuff.
"Well we can talk about this all day, or we can work on your archery." said Daniel, seeing that I was desperate to change the subject. I smiled. He really could be a nice guy sometimes.
ANNABETH'S POV
Sparring was awful. I usually enjoy whipping other's butts at combat. But no this time. I was still thinking about that capture the flag game. It really wasn't fair that I had yelled at Percy. It was really Travis and Connor. Actually it was really no one's fault. I sighed. Percy was right. It was allowed. I guess I would have to apologize to him.
'Attention!" Chiron yelled.
"Now, let me tell you something. Instead of that boring skills evaluation contest next Friday, I've convinced Mr. D that we are going to have a Demigod Fiesta Party!"
Cheering went up from the crowd.
'You may also bring dates."
Duh, I thought, who wouldn't bring dates?
The rest of sparring wasn't really sparring at all. It was more of a "who are you gonna ask to the Fiesta conversation.
"Annabeth!" I turned around to see my little sister Stephanie.
"Are you gonna ask Percy to the Fiesta?" she asked.
"What?....who in Hades told you I was gonna do that?
"But he's your boyfriend!" Stephanie complained.
"No he's not! Who told you that?"
"Sorry. It's just that Silena was talking.....you know. But that's ok. See you later, Annabeth!"
Maybe I should ask Percy...what?! No! I don't like Percy like that! Right?
But maybe....just maybe......
