Disclaimer: I DO NOT own PJO only this fanfiction! I hope you really like it, and please review.
As I was walking up the stairs of the school I made sure to take a good look at the architecture of the school and there's no doubt that you can tell that this is one of the best schools in the country by just looking at it. The campus is humongous; it looks like its area could be greater than 100,000 square feet! The school was one big building, but it was 4 stories high and the exterior of it was all made out of glass, you can clearly see through the glass and what I saw made me really excited. As I kept climbing upstairs to get to the entrance of the building I was astonished at how incredible it looked.
Before I got in I took one last look around and what really amazed me was that there was a garden full of flowers behind a glass room to decorate the front of the school to make it look like some majestic fairy world! I can't believe it! How where they able to maintain the garden and make it look so beautiful during winter? Maybe the room's temperature is the opposite of the freezing cold air outside? hmmmmm…..FOCUS ANNABETH! Enter the school and get to do what you came here to do before you become a human Popsicle outside! Stupid ADHD!
When I pushed through the front doors of the school I was met face to face with the security guard who sat at his desk by the metal detector. I had to explain to the security guard why I was at school so early so he can let me in so I showed him my transfer paper and my admission slip explaining that I need to arrive early to school to get well adjusted to the new environment. The security told me that I can go right inside the school after he checked my bag and I walked through the metal detector. After this was done I pushed through the other doors and it led me to the main hallway of the school and let me tell you, I was in complete awe. This school looked awesome! The hallways were beautifully decorated with spontaneous artwork, the lockers were personalized and each one of them had their own designs on them. I guess Thalia wasn't kidding when she told me there was also locker with a keyboard on it; well I guess I'll find out sooner or later.
As I walked through the colorful halls of Goode High I started to realize that I was the only one there, that's when I looked at my watch and noticed that I was 30 minutes early. As I kept on looking at the incredible art work that were on both the walls of Goode High and on the lookers I also tried to look for the main office where the secretary is supposed to give me my school schedule, Luckily there where arrows on the wall pointing towards the main office. To be honest, if it weren't for these arrows I would have been just like a confused mouse lost in a maze. When I finally got to the main office I was introduced to the principal Mr. Brunner who was by far my favorite school principal ever!
He looked as if he were in his late 30's or early 40's. He had long curly brown hair which he neatly tied back with a full beard and mustache. He wore a grey suit and was on a wheel chair, and he had the kindest looking brown eyes that I've ever seen. Did that make sense? Oh well! He was so kind when he talked, he spoke to me in a much more friendly way other than in a formal way. For a while he wanted to get to know me more and then we started to talk about the school and how it was all going to be a great experience, hopefully. He was really kind and I felt like I could go to him anytime I had something troublesome on my mind.
After getting to know each other and talking about the school I waited for Mr. Brunner to print my schedule, meanwhile we started talking about my grades (which were by far all A+'s except for science which was an A-, stupid Mrs. Brownsworth!) and the classes I would like to attend this year. It seemed like I was having a class with him, he would be my Greek teacher. I was happy to find this out because I was all for Greece and it's religion I even knew how to speak it. I'm half Greek so I guess it's in my blood. When the schedule for the semester was all printed Mr. Brunner handed me the books I would need for my classes and we said our goodbyes for today (well at least till after lunch when I have his class). After all this I was good to go!
When I got out of the main office the hallways started to fill up with students and I felt like a few were staring at me. A couple of guys whistled and I could have sworn that a few girls started to give me these nasty looks and started to whisper about me. I can't lie, it felt pretty awkward knowing that people were staring and secretly judging me without them even getting to know the real me. After walking and walking I just shrugged it off and continued to walk down the large hall trying to ignore them.
As I tried to find my locker I accidentally walked into somebody who just made the books that I have received from the office and was recently carrying scatter all over the floor. Great going Annabeth! I thought to myself as I started to pick up the books from the floor. The person that I bumped into offered an apology- the person's voice sounded sweet and deep- and got down to help me pick up the books. I was about to see who it was when I made the terrible mistake of looking into his sea green eyes. They were mesmerizing; the way the colors of green just kept hold of my gray eyes was just indescribable. There was something about him though, he just seemed so familiar. After staring at each other's eyes for a few minutes I decided to speak.
"Umm, don't be sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going." I said as I continued to pick up the books on the floor while he said "W-well let me help you pick up the rest of your belongings." He continued to pick up the rest of the few books that were still on the floor and handed them to me. As we stood up I got to see him better.
He was tall, like about 6.5, he had tan skin that made it seem like he never left the beach, messy jet black hair, and he had a black and white T shirt with the sleeves rolled up that had The Beatles picture on it that fit perfectly around his strong chest and arm muscles (I have no doubt that this guy has an 8 pack), he also wore some ripped black jeans with undone suspenders and pair of black and white converses. I can't deny that the guy was SMOKIN' HOT! I mean, pretty cute… yeahhhh. Although he was really good looking I didn't come to this school to meet more boys who might hurt me, I've had enough of that so far but still… this guy, he looks very familiar. I started to think to myself, trying to figure out where I had seen him before. As I stared at him, he had this rocker look going on. I tried to figure out when it suddenly struck me as if I were just hit by a lightning bolt!
"Hey, aren't you Thalia's cousin? What was your name again…Percy Jackson, right?" I asked trying to not scare him away by asking him if he was Percy from "Connect 3" and start acting all fan girlish like. He didn't look pretty surprised about what I asked, instead he looked kinda curious. It was probably because he hasn't seen me around. Don't know...
"Yeah, that's me…" He responded probably trying to figure out if he had ever met me before.
"I'm Thalia's best friend who used to live in California." I said trying to see if it rang a bell and by the look of confusion on his face I'm guessing it doesn't.
"Let me properly introduce myself, my name is Annabeth Chase and I'm attending Goode this semester, does the name ring a bell?" I asked hoping it did because I wouldn't want him to think I'm this weird girl who's probably only talking to the famous "Percy Jackson" to try and get his digits, which I'm not. As soon as I said this Percy's eyes started to grow large, this made me laugh a bit.
"You're the Annabeth Chase? Thalia doesn't stop talking about you! Does she even know you're here?" he asked me giving me a smile of recognition. Thank gods he recognized me; lord knows what would become of this if he thought of me as some crazed fan girl. Again, that's not me!
"Ah no, I'm trying to keep it a surprise and by any chance since we're talking about Thalia have you seen her around?" I asked
"No, I'm guessing she probably slept in, like always" he said rolling his eyes. This made me laugh, oh the memories!
"I should've known" I said while still laughing. "Anyways it was nice to finally meet you Jackson, right now I have to go and find my locker." I said nonchalantly.
"It's cool I got to go too, and it was nice to finally meet you." Percy said while giving me a smile.
"Oh yeah, can you do me a quick favor?" I asked him before I started to walk off.
"Sorry, I got no money on me right now." he said as he pulled out his empty pockets and gave me a playful frown which just made me laugh again.
"Aw, that's too bad." I said playing around with him. "Anyways, If you see Thalia please don't tell her I'm here. Oh, and say "hi" to Nico and Jason for me if you see them around, will ya?" I asked him.
"Sure thing Annabeth" Percy said and that's when I started walking away while I waved goodbye. As I was walking away from Percy I heard him yelling "see you around rookie" which for some reason left me smiling like an idiot. For a famous "rock star" he sure was different than I expected, and this is a good thing.
