Thanks for the reviews! This is chapter 2, hope you enjoy it.
tommorow's new year's eve, so a happy new year to everyone! =D
Annabeth POV
I was too late, Percy had already dived into the water.
I didn't know why I followed him. The only thing I knew for sure is that I didn't want this.
Not talking, pretending like we didn't know each other, like we didn't have a history together, everything better than this. If that would mean that I would have to pretend that I wasn't in love with him anymore to be friends again, then I'd do that. I knew how hard that was going to be. But at least we would be friends then, hopefully even best-friends again.
He has continued living his life, so would I. But with him as friend on my side, despite the feelings I still had for him. This was going to be hard, but it was worth it. I couldn't have him as my boy-friend again, even though I wanted it badly, I could have him as my friend again, if he would forgive me. I was terribly jealous but I'd be nice for Leane.
A pity that, that was easier to be said than to be done.
*That night at dinner*
"Hero's, I have an announcement to make" Chiron called loudly
"Apollo had an idea; I personally think it's great! He said that he would like to organise an karaoke night at camp tomorrow night, to celebrate the beginning of our summer"
Most of us groaned and complained, although the Apollo campers cheered happily.
Yeah that's because they CAN sing, the most of us can't I thought angry.
I was a total disaster at singing, I was definitely not going to come!
"Everyone is obliged to participate. But before you all start complaining, Apollo will make sure that everyone will have a great singing voice, just for that evening. You have to sing 1 song, there will also be duets, and the people who will sing these duets are going to be picked randomly by spotlights"
Damn, even though I would have a great voice that night, I really didn't want to sing a duet with someone, I desperately hoped it would not be with Percy.
Percy POV
Oh great, absolutely brilliant, I thought sarcastic. I really wasn't in the mood to sing songs,
and I couldn't even pick my own song, I wished it wouldn't be a romantic song, I couldn't stand those. And the duets were what bothered me most, it was nice to listen to other people, but I didn't want to sing one myself! And especially not with Annabeth, I knew that chance was very small but still.
Aphrodite POV
Hahaha, this was going to be great! If they only knew I was going to be the one who picked the songs for them and that I'd be the one who controlled the spotlights. Hmm I should start searching for songs, and of course a very touching duet. I think I'll ask Apollo if he knows a few nice songs. Then I heard them think at exactly the same time that they absolutely didn't want to sing a duet together, hihi like I said, if they only knew…..
Annabeth POV
I didn't sleep very good, but it was better than when I slept at home.
I spent the morning with Thalia lying on bed watching some chick flick, like that would make me feel better. Though the chocolate she gave me was great.
She kept telling me that she knew for sure that Percy was still in love with me was, while I kept saying that it was definitely not true.
We had a whole discussion about it; it didn't make any sense at all. She said that she just had this feeling that it was true. If she was a daughter of Aphrodite there would be a very small chance that I'd believe it, but she was a daughter of Zeus, so no way I'd believe it. And she was a huntress of Artemis so she wasn't even interested in dating, why was she talking shit then? "O I just know it, you guys are meant to be". She kept saying.
Yeah, chick flicks definitely weren't good for her. Not that I didn't appreciate it though, I was really glad that she was trying to help me so much, but it just didn't help what she was saying.
Then an idea popped in my head.
"Hey Thal, I have a idea!"
"Wow, never though a daughter of Athena would come with an idea" She said teasing.
"Very funny, but like I said I have an idea, I could always join the hunters of Artemis"
Her mouth dropped open, and a shocked expression washed over her face.
"NO, NO way! You belong here, with Percy. Believe me, it would be great if you join us, but it's just not right, this is were you're supposed to be"
"Thal, stop talking shit, If I belong with Percy, then why am I not with him? If I want to join, than that's my decision, you can't stop me, it's my life"
"At least wait till the end of the summer then, make sure you're not making a mistake, because if you do, you'll regret it forever, like really forever"
"Okay, okay, you're right, I'll wait till the end of this summer and than I'll see what to do next"
Thalia sighed relieved. I sighed irritated.
Percy POV
Fuck it, why in Hades does there have to be such a ridiculous evening. Like people were waiting for a night of listening, and singing stupid songs. Crap,, probably there are people excited about it. Well I was not.
I've been walking on the beach for an hour, just walking the same path over and over again.
It was pathetic, why couldn't I just move on with my life. No it had to be hard again, like I hadn't already suffered enough in my life. I missed her so much. I wasn't the person I was before I had heard it from many people. Not the Percy full of life and happiness. Well, it wasn't my fault. I was angry at her. But I knew I couldn't stay mad forever. I couldn't live without her, I'd realised that. But I was also definitely not going to make a move to make things right again, I didn't do anything wrong. Well maybe I was a bit harsh but despite that, I didn't do anything. She should do something if she wanted things to be right again. But why would she, she wasn't in love with me anymore, and I was a jerk. Aah life is great!
So what did you think =D?
If you have any tips for me, i'd like to hear them!
And is the switching POV irritating or fun?
reviews are very much accepted!
