Library
"Hey Annabeth," Percy said, plopping down next to me. "What are you doing?" I shushed him, signalling him to be quiet since we were in a library.
"Reading," I whispered back to him, answering his question. My eyes were glued to the page. He tried to look over my shoulder, but I managed to push him away.
"What are you reading?" he asked, much too loudly. I looked up and saw the librarian giving us a scathing look. I blushed and looked back into my book.
"'The Hunger Games'," I mumbled. "Now would you please lower your voice?" He shrugged in agreement. I sighed and paid attention to my book. I was at the part where they announced that there could be two winners when my concentration was broken by the most stupidest things ever. Percy's tapping fingers. I groaned and looked at him.
"What?" he asked me, feeling my glare on him. I sighed in annoyance.
"Do you want me to bring you a book?" I asked him. He laughed, but quieted when the librarian gave him a look.
"Don't you remember? I'm dyslexic," he reminded me. I sighed and stood up, bookmarking my place in the book.
"I'm sure we'll find something," I told him with a fake smile. "Maybe a few picture books?" He rolled his eyes.
"I'm not five, Annabeth," he said, maybe a bit smugly. "I think I'm a bit more evolved than that." I rolled my eyes.
"How about some comic books?" I suggested instead. He shrugged.
"I guess," he told me. Thankfully the comic book section was just behind us. I grabbed some random comics and threw them in front of Percy.
"Here," I snarled. "Read." I plopped back into my seat and opened my book again.
I was reading fervently, getting to the part where Katniss and Peeta found out that there could only be one winner, when Percy poked me in the shoulder. I managed to ignore him, but he kept repeating the motion over and over again. I lost my patience and turned to look at him, probably looking like a rabid dog.
"WHAT DO YOU WANT!" I bellowed. Then I remembered where I was. Oh...dang. The librarian was glaring at me. I gave her an apologetic smile and turned back to Percy with a dark look in my eyes. He grinned sheepishly at me.
"I...just wanted to let you know that...I ran out of comic books to read," he said softly. Something snapped. I stood up, got the bin that held some of the comic books and poured all of them onto Percy.
"You want more comic books? Here's your stupid comic books!" I huffed. Then I sat down and opened my book again. I read the sentence where Katniss and Peeta held the berries to their lips when... A tap on my shoulder. I sighed, knowing it was Percy.
"What do you want n-" I hissed, facing him. Except it wasn't Percy. It was the librarian. My eyes widened in shock.
"Umm..." I stuttered. "Hello?" She glared at me.
"Young lady, I suggest that you and your friend get out of this library," she demanded. I slowly brought up my book.
"Can I at least check-out this book?" I asked, sheepishly.
You can guess what her answer was.
A/N
