Please review! I do not own Percy Jackson.
Percy's Pov
"Hey, WAKE UP!" Grover shouted at me forcing me to get up, out of my warm and comfy bed.
"Wha…"
I wasn't able to finish as Grover interrupted.
"Come on, you're going to miss breakfast!" Grover said while dumping clothes at me.
"I'm coming, settle down! I'll meet you in a second at the Dining Hall." I said. I was a little cranky in the morning.
Grover quickly exited the cabin. When I finally reached the Dining Hall, I was too late. From all the chatter, I knew I missed something important.
I quickly spotted Grover, talking with Nico. I quickly joined them at their table. "That explains why the new girl I met was so lost." Grover said to Nico.
"Hey, what happened? What girl?" I asked Grover, feeling lost and confused myself.
"Oh right, I've been needing to talk to you about that." Grover grabbed me by the arm and took me outside.
"What's going on?" I demanded, getting a little irritated.
"Well, there is this new girl…"
"So?"
Grover took me outside, apparently it was important. Grover hesitated, "Well she seemed friendly and really smart, so I invited her to stay in our cabin. And, well, she is a little different."
"What do you mean by 'different'?" I questioned.
"She is a lot like you. I can already tell that you'll like her." Grover said with dreamy eyes. I was starting to get a little nervous. What was I going to do? What was I supposed to say to her? My mind was racing. "I want you to meet her." Grover continued, interrupting my thoughts.
"Uhh, okay." I was still unsure what to say, or what to do. But I was starting to get freaked out. As I continued on my way, I thought Grover was pulling a prank on me. Yeah, that's right. Just watch out for yourself.
As I was getting closer to the cabin, that's when I heard soft singing of a familiar tune, I'm Yours by Jason Maroz. Weird. I hesitated as I reached for the doorknob. What was I supposed to say? My friend said I'd love you so I came to check you out. I realized that I had left my wallet on my bed. Perfect excuse. I wasn't sure what to expect as I turned the knob. I walked in and saw a girl dancing around with earphones plugged in her ears. She probably didn't notice me. I didn't have a good view, but I saw a glimpse of her unpacking her bags. I quickly closed the door. She noticed that I was standing there. As she took her earphones out of her ears, I took a few steps closer to introduce myself. I was able to have a good look at her. She was stunning, perfectly curled long blonde hair. She looked about a couple inches shorter than me. I also noticed her amazing body that's when I mentally slapped myself. Realizing I was just standing and staring at her, I was thinking of what to saw.
She broke the awkward silence. "Hello my name is Annabeth" This was when I noticed her eyes were an intense grey color. I stared into her eyes for a while.
"Hellooo!" Annabeth waved her hand in front of my face.
I focused back into reality. "Hi, sorry, I'm just getting my wallet." I went over to my bed and reached for my wallet as I asked. "So, where are you from?"
"California."
"Whoa, you came all the war here?"
"Yep, my dad wanted me to go attend this school."
"Why is that? I don't see anything wrong with you." That came out wrong.
" Well, what's wrong with you?" Annabeth teased. Before I could answer, she was already speaking. "I have dyslexia and ADHD like most of you guys. I've been kicked out of a lot of other schools… so my dad decided that it was best to send me here."
I smiled. "Well your going to love it here."
"I forgot to ask earlier, what is your name?"
"Perseus Jackson." Damn, why did I use my whole name? "But you can call me Percy for short." I quickly added.
"Sure, nice to meet you Percy." Annabeth smiled. Which was an amazing smile by the way.
"Can I see you schedule for your classes?" I asked.
"Sure." She handed me the paper on her nightstand.
"Cool, you have sword training with me…." I took a glance at my watch. I realized that we were already late for our class.
Annabeth Pov
Wow, first day here and I already met with a few people. One of them is Percy Jackson. Well… we just met a couple ours ago and we barely knew each other. I guess you can call us friends. But there is something else about him that distracts me. He is a really nice boy with black hair that reminds me of surfer or beach hair. He has deep green eyes that look amazing. He is a little tanned and has an angled frame from his muscles. He's pretty hot… I have to stop myself from thinking about him and focus on my studies. This is no time for a boyfriend. Not thinking about boys… and his deep green eyes I can stare into forever.
Percy and I were walking through the woods to find the sword arena. Out of nowhere, I spot a HUGE spider web with the biggest spider I've ever seen. I guess you can say it's bigger than my bulldog at home. I slowed my pace back to Percy, hiding behind him. I tried not to make it so obvious that I was a wimp. Percy suddenly grabbed my hand, pulling me closer to him. I could feel his strength through his hands. His hand went up my arm to my waist. Now that I think about it, it was a little awkward, but I didn't care at the time since I was so scared but relaxed at the same time. I felt him staring at me so I pretended to look around, not meeting his gaze. I heard someone coming, and we slowed down.
I saw a boy, a little younger than me, running up to us. He had black, a side swept hairstyle, pale green eyes that went along his pale skin. "Whoa, what is going on here?" He stopped in his tracks, staring at us. "You were late, so I came to come and get you but looks like you're busy." Percy let his hand down off of my waist.
"Shut up, Nico." Percy started to blush. He is s so cute when he is blushing.
"Whatever." Then Nico started the other direction, Percy and I following him to the sword arena.
When we finally got there people were already in pairs, ready to go. We were the only ones left, so Percy and I paired up, which I didn't mind. Percy and I assembled our armor and grabbed our swords. We started practicing, I attack, and he dodges.
I got a little annoyed. "Come on, do something besides dodging."
He was clearly holding back. "Uhh."
"What are you? A chicken?" I teased.
"Well, are you ready?" he asked.
"Yeah, bring it on. I've been waiting here all day." I said, challenging him.
"Okay, you asked for it."
Suddenly, he clashed his sword at the hilt of mine and went flying. Which was… a little dangerous considering others around me. He put his foot down and tripped me. I then realized that he pinned down on the ground. He was on top of me and our faces close. He had pride in his eyes that faded and turned into a soft gaze. At this time I was probably as red as a tomato. We both smiled, as he was about to kiss me when we were interrupted.
"Wow, Percy didn't your mom ever teach you not to fight a girl and then make out with them." I blushed even more. Percy rose to his feet. He reached down and gave me a hand. I'm glad nobody could really see me with my helmet on.
"What do you want Luke?" he had a tone in his voice that was striking, authoritative, and angry.
"I just wanted to introduce myself to your lady friend." Then he winked at me, I blushed he was cute not as cute as Percy. He looked a little older than him also. I was a pretty embarrassed.
"Not now." Percy said with the same tone and motioned me to follow him.
"What was that about?" I blurted out, looking back at Luke. I knew something was going on between those two.
"Nothing. Want to go to lunch?" He asked taking his armor off. Clearly, it wasn't the time to talk about it.
"Sure." I agreed, taking my armor off as well.
After we both took our armor off, and returned the swords. I felt his gaze upon me again. There was something about it that is so relaxing. It was so romantic and charming; a kind of gaze that convince you to do anything. I knew he was reaching for me hand and I reached for his. I accidentally let a giggle out.
"What?" He asked with an uneasy smile.
"Nothing. Nothing at all." I looked up at him, meeting his gaze.
Sorry if Annabeth is a bit OOC. Please review! Corrective criticism is fine but NO flaming. This is my first time.
