Annabeth's POV
I walked through the busy hallway, trying my best not to bump into anyone. It's a Monday afternoon and classes finish early, so I wasn't surprised. There where boys running round, bouncing balls, yelling and telling each other to pass the ball. Most where half naked (not that I cared), had towels around their waist, wearing footy uniforms or just in causal wear. I walked a little faster, going past all the boys dormitories on the first floor, until I got to the end one: BD24.
Ok, so now you're probably wondering, Why am I walking through the boys dorms and Is standing right in front of Percy's dorm? Well it's pretty simple, it's been nearly 3 days and I haven't seen Percy. He wasn't at any of his classes today and I didn't see him at all on the weekend, I'm getting worried.
I knocked on the door of his dorm and, without waiting for any response I walked right in.
"Hey Percy, are you in-" I gasped at what I saw, Percy was standing in the middle of the room, facing me with his shirt off. He had 2 fist sized bruises on his thin torso and held a Zam-Buk Ointment tin in his left hand. He looked exhausted, with dark circles around his eyes.
I closed the door behind me and walked towards him. I reached out my finger and lightly traced around the dark circles that were slightly covering his good-looking six-pack.
"Percy, What happened?" I asked, lifting my head up.
Percy ignored me and walked to his bed side table, putting the Ointment down."None of your business." He finally answered, moodily.
I walked up to him and cupped his cheek with my hand, gently forcing his to head to face me again. "Percy, What happened." I asked again, more forcefully this time.
Percy shuffled his feet, "I- erm went- ah paint balling with my friends on Sunday." He answered, saying the last part a little too fast.
Immediately, I didn't believe him, but I didn't pressure him to tell me. If he wanted to tell me the truth he would.
"So do you want me to leave now or stay?"
"You can stay."
I nodded and walked over to the spare bed and sat down, while Percy went to his bed and sat down, but not before chucking on the loose tank top that was on it.
"So you're here because…" Started Percy, gesturing me to finish his sentence.
"Well I was wondering where you have been, I didn't see you all weekend and then this morning you didn't even come to class." I explained.
"Ahh, sorry about that, I stayed at Luke place for the weekend, he had a party and stuff and I was really tired this morning, so I didn't really want to do class work." Answered Percy, yawning afterwards.
I believed some of it was true, but I still thought Percy was somewhat lying. Yes, I'll admit he was a good liar but I could tell he was hiding something.
BRR BR BRR BR (A/N My amazing vibration imitation, It's sounds like a fart. BRRRRR)
The vibration of my phone brought me out of my thoughts. I fetched my phone out of my pocket and looked at the screen.
You have one message.
Thalia Grace
0437 593 823
I tapped the view button and quickly read over the text.
ANNABETH,
WHERE ARE YOU WOMAN!
YOU DIDN'T EVEN WAIT FOR ME AFTER CLASS.
ANYWAY HURRY UP AND GET YOUR BUM TO OUR DORM,
BIANCA IS STAYING THE WEEK AND WE ARE WAITING!
Thalia xx
I let out a small chuckle and replied back.
aww can't stand a few hours without me? I feel so honored :P
I'll be there in 5 mins.
Annabeth xox
I turned off my phone screen and lid it back into my pocket. I heard slight snoring and looked up to see Percy curled up into a little ball sleeping, with a little bit of drool running down the side of his mouth. He hugged one of his pillows, between his legs and arms and his head snuggled comfortably into his other pillow. In other words he looked adorable.
I cracked a smile at sight of him and slowly made my way over to his bed, I gently laid his sheets over him and quickly tip-toed out of his dorm, closing the door behind me.
THE NEXT DAY
I leaned against my locker, completely exhausted. Last night, Thalia kept Bianca and I up all night. We watched movies, on our laptops and ate junk food, that Bianca brought in. Yes, I'll admit, it was fun but it left me extremely tired. (A/N Just going to say that since Bianca and Thalia are year 12's their lockers are in a different section as Annabeth's who is in year 11)
"Hey Annabeth! did you have fun last night?" Asked Thalia, cheerfully. To tell you the truth I don't know how she does it, she can stay up all night and party, then wake up the next morning looking like she can run 5 miles.
"Yeh I did, but how on earth do you do that? Like stay up all night and still be awake the next morning."
Thalia chuckled, "Practice and a little help from my friend... coffee."
"Well, if you fetch me a latte by lunch I'll worship you forever." Said Bianca, who was now right next to us.
"Make that 2." I added.
Thalia laughed and said devilishly, "I'll think about it."
I nodded and turned around to face my locker, I collected all my books and grabbed my laptop from my bag, adding it to my pile of books. As I was locking my locker back up, I saw out of the corner of my eye, Percy walking up to his locker, which was only a locker apart from mine. He looked straight at me but didn't even say a word, he gave Thalia and Bianca a quick death glare then looked down and shook his head, clearly upset. Like he always does when I'm around his cousins, I try to hang around him a lot and get him to come sit with us but he always denied. As much as I want to hang around him more often, I knew I couldn't just leave Thalia and Bianca for their cousin, that they obviously despise.
"Umm, we are going to homeroom, you coming?" Asked Bianca, clearly realizing that I wanted time with Percy, since they both knew we were friends.
"Nah, I'll stay here, my homeroom is only down the hall."
"K, see you at lunch." Said Thalia, waving as she left with Bianca.
Once they were out of sight, I slid by to Percy's locker. "Hey Percy, have a good nights rest?!" I asked, giggling slightly.
"Uh What? I guess so." He answered.
"Percy, you do know that you fell asleep last night while I was at your dorm." I stated as we started walking to class.
"Umm maybe." said Percy, blushing a slight crimson.
"Are you blushing?" I called mockingly, while poking him in the ribs.
Percy squirmed and became more red.
"You are!" I laughed and stopped poking him. Allowing him to catch his breath.
"Well I'm… erm… going to go to… the… bathroom." Percy said, scratching the back of his neck nervously.
I laughed, "Whatever, see you in class."
AFTER SCHOOL
I walked around the school, looking in every single classroom and at every single spot. It's been about 20 minutes since the bell went and about 15 minutes of searching, yet I couldn't find Percy. I didn't see him after 6th period, last period of the day, because we had separate classes then. Now it's left me searching for him.
Where is he? I thought to myself, angrily. I've checked everywhere, his dorm, all the science, maths, humanities, english, technology classrooms. Dammit, I even checked all the arts and music classrooms. I've checked the gymnasium and the poo- Wait, the pool!
I ran as fast as I can, to the pool. Bumping into people here and there.
I swear if he isn't there I'll call his name over the school speakers.
Once I got to the pool, I immediately saw him. He was in lane 3, swimming laps of freestyle. It was amazing how he swam, like he was manipulating the water to drive him forward. His stroke was flawless; calm and fluent, like he was threading through air. He made it look so easy, as if he was born to be in the water. After about 400m of freestyle, he finally stopped, shaking his head, allowing the water of splash out of his hair. Then he jumped out the water to sit on the ledge at the end of the pool, letting his feet dangle in the water.
Still amazed, I made my way over to him.
"Hey." I said, as soon as I was standing by the ledge.
"Oh, hey Annabeth." Percy answered and patted the spot next to him.
"Ah, no way, I'm not getting wet." I declared, but still took off my flip flops and sat next to him. The cool water, tickling at my toes. "So you swim?!"
"Used to, not much anymore." He replied.
"Well you should try out for the school swim team, your easily good enough." I told him.
"Nah, I don't swim competitively."
"Oh ok, well anyway I was wondering if you wanted to finish off the rest of the project? It won't take that long."
"Yeah sure, in a few minutes." He said, splashing me in the face with water, grinning like a maniac.
"Percy!" I yelled, even though I was half laughing. I pushed Percy into the water, not thinking this through, because as he made his way into the water he grabbed my wrist.
Pulling me in with him.
