Now

Rachel nervously tapped her fingers against the cold metal table. She had been in here for fifteen minutes, waiting for the detectives to show up.

"Percy isn't dead." Rachel said aloud.

She was hoping if she said it enough times, it would be true. However he was dead, she saw the EMT take his body away herself. Nothing could change that.

The door opened and a handsome dark haired man walked in. Rachel looked up and smiled weakly.

"Hello, Rachel Elizabeth Dare, my name is Detective Hart I would like to ask you some questions about your ex-boyfriend Percy Jackson." He said.

Rachel frowned. "We never officially broke up."

Detective Hart raised an eyebrow. "We were informed you guys were going to."

Rachel sighed. "We had our problems."

"Was Annabeth Chase one of them?" He asked.

Rachel frowned. "What does she have to do with anything?"

Detective Hart sighed. "Look, Rachel the sooner you answer my questions, the sooner you can leave. What was your relationship with the victim like?"

Rachel smiled softly. There were good times during the relationship. Times where she felt like the love was so strong nothing could break it up.

"We met at a party."


Three Months Ago

"So are you guys coming to Will Solace's party tonight?" Annabeth asked.

Piper shrugged. "I don't know if Jason would want to go."

Rachel raised an eyebrow. "Do you ever do anything Jason doesn't want to do?"

Piper frowned. "Yes I do."

The girls always said that dating Jason had changed Piper. She was no longer the bold and indepedent girl they once knew. Now all she cared about was Jason and looking good for him. Even Thalia, who was Jason's sister, had a problem with it.

Rachel turned and saw Percy talking to Hazel and Leo. Rachel smiled.

"I'll ask Percy if he wants to come." Rachel smiled.

"You're going to bring the new kid, as your date?" Thalia asked.

Rachel smiled. "Why not? He's hot and single."

Annabeth raised an eyebrow. All the girls in school had been talking about Percy. The mysterious, new kid with abs for days. After meeting him Annabeth learned he was the exact opposite of his reputation. He wasn't some moody bad boy, he was just your average teenage boy. However even Annabeth had to admit he was hot.

Rachel eyes wandered to the other side of the cafeteria. Percy was laughing with Hazel and Leo, a big smile on his face. Rachel smiled and walked over to him.

"Hello there Persus Jackson." Rachel said fliatiously.

Percy smirked. "Nice to see you again Rachel Elizabeth Dare."

"Very nice." Leo chuckled.

Rachel ignored the looks she got from Leo and turned her attention towards Percy.

"So, what are you doing tonight?" Rachel asked.

Percy placed a finger to his chin and made a big show to act like he was thinking of something. Percy smiled as he shook his head.

"Nothing, why?" Percy asked.

"Well a friend of mine is having a party, and I think it would be amazing if you came." Rachel smiled.

Percy raised an eyebrow. "Is that so?"

Rachel nodded. She tried her best not to sound desperate, with guys she made sure they knew that she wanted them but never thought that they were her only option. Rachel leaned in closer and whispered in his ear.

"I think you may have a lot of fun at this party." Rachel whispered seductively.

Percy smiled. "Okay, I'll definitely be there."

Rachel smiled as she walked away, feeling pride and a sense of accomplishment. She sat back down with the girls and smirked.

"By the end of tonight Percy is going to want to marry me." Rachel smiled.

Annabeth shook her head. It was crazy how Rachel was acting over a boy. Annabeth turned and saw Percy smiling at her. He waved, which for some reason made her blush. Annabeth turned away quickly and forced her eyes to go to the cold lunch on her tray.

"Tonight is going to be amazing." Rachel smiled.


NOW

"So what exactly happened at this party?" Detective Hart asked.

Rachel looked down at her feet. "Nothing too big."

"Really Rachel, because someone told us a lot happened. I figured even you would say something considering that's when you two got together." Detective Hart said.

Rachel sighed. "Please, whatever you do don't tell my parents."


Three Months Ago

"Have you seen Percy." Rachel asked.

She currently stood in a red strapless dress searching the party for the dark haired boy. Thalia rolled her eyes.

"Stop worrying about him and just dance with me!" Thalia yelled.

Rachel raised an eyebrow. "I thought Justin Bieber was to mainstream for you."

Thalia smirked. "Come on, every girl likes Bieber."

Rachel laughed. "Maybe you're right."

A loud laugh was heard causing the girls to turn and see Will Solace walking towards them.

"God I hate Will." Thalia groaned.

"Why, he's so nice?" Rachel asked.

Thalia shook her head. "He goes through women faster than Annabeth goes through books."

Rachel raised an eyebrow. "Wow that's impressive."

Rachel's eyes followed Will as he made his way upstairs. A strange feeling stirred in her stomach. She wanted to follow him, but she knew Thalia would judge her. Rachel shook her head and continued dancing.

However the party stopped when a loud thump was heard. Everyone turned to see Will Solace falling down the stairs. Rachel and Thalia gasped as he tumbled down. Rachel turned to see Percy running down the steps. An awful thought occurred to her. Had he pushed Will down the steps? Rachel frowned and chased after Percy.

"Where are you going?" Thalia called.

"To check on Percy." Rachel yelled.

She followed Percy out the door and to his beat up car.

"Percy what's wrong?" Rachel asked.

Percy ignored her and hopped in his car. Rachel frowned and opened the other door.

"Get out Rachel." Percy snapped.

Rachel jumped from his outburst, but stayed there. She felt the need to comfort him.

"Come on Percy talk to me." Rachel said.

Percy sighed and looked up at her. "I shouldn't have pushed him."

Rachel frowned. "What did he say?"

Percy shook his head. "You wouldn't understand."

Rachel raised an eyebrow. "Try me."

"Rachel you have rich parents and your popular. My mom works two jobs, I don't fit in your guy's world. I'm not use to kids like you guys." Percy sighed.

Rachel put a hand on his shoulder, "Whatever kids like him say, ignore it. I'm for one am very happy that you are here?" Rachel smiled.

Rachel leaned in and kissed him. Percy widened his eyes in shock.

"What are you doing?" He asked.

Rachel blushed. "Relax Percy."

Without another word she kissed the boy again. She slowly climbed on top of and began to deepen the kiss.

"I promise I'll make this a night you'll never forget." She whispered.


Now

Rachel sighed. "Happy now? I told you how I had sex in some dirty car." Rachel snapped.

Detective Hart raised an eyebrow. "One more thing, the gun Percy was shot with. It had your fingerprints on it. Care to explain?"


I know this was a short chapter but the next one will be longer, I promise.
