HEY GUYS! It's been forever since I last updated and I am extremely sorry for that. Just know that I love you all and I am so sorry that I have been so extremely busy. But, you guys don't to hear my excuses, so lets get in with the story.

Annabeth's POV

The blaring sounds of the alarm stung my sound deprived ears as I scrambled off of Percy's bed, slapping the glowing digital clock on the nightstand. Looking back, I saw that my boyfriend was still drooling away soundlessly, hugging the pillow I placed in his arms in my absence.

I quietly snuck back into my room praying to Athena that by some miracle Sally would still be asleep blissfully aware of the night I spent in her son's room. Just as I was about to open the door I heard a kindly soft voice speak out

"Good morning Annabeth. Breakfast is on the table."

I jumped, spinning around sheepishly smiling at Sally. The women sat on the table holding a warm cup of coffee in her hands. More wrinkles lined her eyes from years of smiling and her brown hair was streaked with bit of gray, but she aged well and she was still beautiful.

I flushed and walked cautiously over to the table, my mind racing with ways to get out of trouble.

"No need to look so jumpy sweetheart, you have been through Tartarus and back with my boy and I would be naive to think that you haven't done more."

"We didn't do anything!" I yelped, mortified and pride wounded.

Sally smiled at me. "Just have some breakfast dear"

I nodded, head held high and let myself sit down on the mahogany colored chair at the table. I heard a creaking sound as Percy swung the door open, sluggishly stagger to the table.

"Morning..." he mumbled

"Sleeping beauty finally awakes" I smirked at him

"Good morning honey" Sally reached for Percy's hand dragging him onto the chair beside me.

I smiled at him and he let a smile grace his features. His messy black hair was swept away from his eyes and his bright green eyes. His gaze met mine and and the world seemed to fall from beneath my feet. He smirked at me breaking our short bond and Percy dove into his plate of bacon and blue eggs.

After breakfast, I shut myself in the guest room and walked towards the closet. I rummaged through my bag pulling out grey halter top. After throwing the shirt on, I stepped into a pair of shorts jeans throwing a weaved belt through the loops completing the look.

I don't understand the logic of fashion. It's not important to me but Amber was insistent that I wear "cute" outfits while Im living at my boyfriend's house. I'm sure that seaweed brain wouldn't care but I let Amber pick my outfit over Skype last night. Apparently the grey top brought out the color of my eyes.

I pulled my hair in a ponytail not caring enough to make it look pretty, grabbed my bag, and headed out the door of the room.

Just as I stepped pass the threshold I bumped into a familiar solid frame. I stepped back and smirked at my boyfriend. Percy smiled sheepishly and rubbed his neck.

"I was just going to go get you" he grinned shyly "We should get going if you want to get to the museum on time"

"Yeah, ok. Lets go"

- LINE BREAK OF AWESOMENESS...no...thats lame,

used it too many times..LINE BREAK OF DE CENTRY -

We came to a stop at the front of the museum and Percy stared at the entrance

"Ugh, been here one too many times for a school field trip. I mean, the dinosaur is awesome and all, its just, its just too, you know...educational"

I covered my mouth muffling a laugh.

"Okay seaweed brain. I have to go meet my class, let's get inside"

He grabbed my hand and pulled me into the building where I saw my class standing idly by the ticket entrance. I turned to kiss Percy goodbye when I saw him stiffen. I swung my head around to see the boy from yesterday, Ian walking toward us.

-Last Night-

I rolled around in my bed tossing and turning unable to get in a comfortable position. Finally settling on my back, my head turned to this afternoon's even wondering why Percy was acting so cold.

My boyfriend had always been a little more than insecure. He was brave, and a hero, but in his own eyes, he was nothing but normal teenage boy. After thinking about it for awhile, I finally realized that Percy had just been jealous. Making up my mind, I sat up and swung my legs off of the bed. I tiptoes towards the door taking care not to hit the creaky floorboards. When I finally got to Percy's room and sneaked towards his bed.

"Percy?"

"Annabeth?" his voice came out incredulous as if he didn't believe that I cared enough to come see him.

"I can't sleep, can I join you?" I mumbled, grateful that it was dark so that he couldn't see me blushing.

I heard the bed groan as he rolled over to give me room. I slipped under the covers next to him and he turned to face me.

"You know you have nothing to worry about right?"

"What?" Percy brushed a lock of blonde hair from my face.

"You know," I whispered "about Ian, he could never compare to you."

Suddenly, the sweet kind boyfriend I knew stiffened and went away.

"I don't like him." Percy said firmly like a little kid.

"You have nothing to worry about. I want to be with you" I said gently.

He relaxed and pulled me closer to him, burying his head in my mop of curls.

"I love you" he said, his voice coming out muffled. I let a smile grace my face.

"I love you too"

"Good, because I will never ever let you go. If you break up with me, I will spend the rest of my life trying to get you back."

My heart melted and buried my head in the crook of his shoulder.

"I know that seaweed brain. Goodnight."

-End of Flashback-

"Be nice." I warned.

I spun around and smiled at Ian with the biggest smile that I could muster. It probably came out more as a grimace.

"Hey Annie, who's your friend?"

"It's Annabeth" we both snapped the same time.

I laughed. "Sorry, I just don't like it when people call me that. This is Percy" I gestured vaguely in his direction.

Percy jerked his head up and down in an acknowledging manner. Something that I noticed boys do a lot. Something about power or position. Boys...

"Bye seaweed brain" I said, smiling sadly and walked away with Ian.

"So that's the famous Hero of Olympus. Doesn't seem too nice."

"No, he's a sweetheart." I said, grimacing as I heard the nice girly voice slip out of my mouth.

"Not to me" Ian chuckled.

"Ha..." I said sarcastically. "Well uh, I gotta go meet my other friends.

I walked up the group and tapped Amber and Blake on the back. They turned and squeaked.

"Omg...heyy. How was last night?" Blake giggled

"Was he good?" Amber whispered.

"WE DIDNT DO ANYTHING...GEEZ...!"

Sam walked up behind me. "Who didn't do anything?"

"Annie and her third degree burn boyfriend..." Blake chuckled lightly.

Sam stared at me..."YEAH THANKS FOR LEAVING ME LAST NIGHT BY THE WAY!"

"Welcome" I replied briskly

I watched as my friend turned redder than a fire engine and walked off to find Ms. Marina.

By the time I walked across the room to my school group Ms. Marina was already talking.

"Stick together" she said "Cause I really don't want to have to sign the paperwork if you die or get lost"

Sam, Blake, and Amber walked up behind me. "What's so funny? What did we miss?"

I shook my head. "Just Ms. Marina being her silly self"

Percy's POV

I walked out the museum seething. Who did that guy think he was to just walk over and take my girl. Suddenly, fear started to replace anger and all I could think about was praying that Annabeth would never break up with me.

I rounded the corner stepping onto the lawn of Goode High School ducking my head behind the bush as the leader of my fan club walked past me. Alana Morris was a grade A pain the butt. If she saw me, she would grab me gab on and on about how she was so fat and ugly waiting for me to shower he with compliments.

Sweeping the grounds I decided the coast was clear and set off to find my group of friends.

The swim team was chatting in the corner arms around the various girls in the area. I swung my bag onto my shoulders and walked up to the guys.

"Hey man, where were you yesterday? You disappeared after lunch!" Jack strolled over, his hands entwined with his girlfriend's hand. Layla smiled shyly at me and waved her free hand.

"Eh, decided to skip a period but I got held up."

"How? Your imaginary girlfriends showed up?"

"A - SHE IS REAL, and B - Yeah...how did you know that? Are you physic or something?"

Jack stiffed a laugh "Nooo, Im half god"

"You are?" I yelped. Hey, In my defense it is very well possible in my world.

"Of course not. Dude, you feeling okay?"

"Yeah" I grumbled. "Im just peachy"

The bell rang out and Jack, Layla and I raced to class. We split at the first hallway, we all had different homerooms at totally different ends of the high school.

I slid into the classroom just as the clock hit 8:10 and Paul raised his eyebrows.

"Good Morning Percy, so glad you could join us."

"Sorry Pau- Mr Blofis. I had to-"

"I know Percy." he said. "Please, take a seat."

The classroom chuckled and my face burned red. This was going to be a long day.

- Time Skip -

I slinked into the last and my least favorite class of the day, English. My ADHD and dyslexia made it extremely hard for me to do anything in class. Alana strut up to my desk dropping her pencil on the ground next to my feet. She leaned over to grab it, unbuttoning her shirt by 2 notches.

"Percy" she purred "I didn't see you there. Hi"

"Alana, I don't have time for this. What do you want?"

"Oh baby, don't be like that." She pouted her fire engine lips and placed her sharp manicured nails on my chest. Her cronies stood behind her whispering to each other. Her violet prostitute dress barely covered her butt, I don't know why this school doesn't have a dress code.

I gently pushed her hands off and grimaced. "Seriously, I just want to make it out of this class alive. I already have a girlfriend and you need to back off"

Alana gasped "You have a girlfriend?" Her eyes filled with venom and she fingered her sharp knife worthy nails. "Don't worry Percy baby, You will be rid of her soon enough." Than she turned around, ponytail whipping my face, and huffed back to her seat.

Her followers exchanged worried glanced and strutted to their mistress. Suddenly the door swung open and a women walked into the room.

"Mr. Blofis went home sick" she announced. "I will be subbing you."

"He was fine this morning" a guy called out "What happened"

She ignored him and spun around stomping to the chalkboard. He nails scratched the board as she wrote down her name with a piece of blue chalk.

The board read, Mrs. Beastly. I'm not even kidding, and in case you were wondering, her name does fit her personality.

"Today, we will move onto the Greek Unit. We will discuss our first topic, the myth of Medusa. Medusa had sisters, monsters who are known as the gorgons. After Medusa was slain by the hero Perseus, the gorgons strived for revenge. Centuries later, Poseidon, the greek god of the sea sired child by the name of Perseus. Named after the son of Zeus that killed Medusa." A shiver went down my spine.

"Uh Mrs Beastly, the legend never mentioned another Perseus in any Greek Myth."

"Ah, yes, but this is a story that has not been told." fire burned in her eyes. "As I was saying, this child, at the age of 12 met Medusa and sent her to Tartarus yet again. At 16, he killed the gorgons and defeated Kronos, the lord of time." Sweat beaded my forehead and I glanced around the room focusing on the window.

"To this day, monsters still roam the earth looking for the boy seeking revenge. An impossible quest for revenge that I WILL ACCOMPLISH!"

Her skin molded off and the monster lunged at me, claws ready to kill.

Okay..the end. That took awhile. I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter. Love you all!
