Ch. 4: Moving In Together
Annabeth's P.O.V.
After Percy and I worked on the songs for a while, we packed up and Thalia and I headed out to do some shopping to pick out clothes for interviews I'd be doing tomorrow. So we headed over to the nearest mall to shop.
"Okay I'm thinking we'll go to Nordstrom first to look at some dresses and then to Macy's to look at some nice shirts and pants." Thalia said.
"Okay sounds good. I'm turning on some Fall Out Boy though." I replied plugging m phone in to the AUX chord and turning up "Sugar We're Going Down".
"Yaaaas! This is my jam!" Thalia said laughing and turning it up some more and screaming the lyrics at the top of her lungs. I smiled and started singing along too. When we arrived at the mall, we immediately headed to Nordstrom too look at some of the professional looking dresses they have there.
"Oooohhhh what abut this one?" Thalia said holding up a dress that had black lace on the top and chiffon on the bottom.
"Oh my gods that's gorgeous! "I squealed in in excitement and grabbed the dress from her. Once I had two more options I headed to the dressing rooms to try them on. We decided to get all three dresses and headed to the checkout counter. As we were walking behind when a body came rushing up behind me and wrapped their arms around my waist.
"Hey beautiful." The voice whispered in my ear. My eyes widened and I turned around to face my ex-boyfriend, Luke Castellan.
"Luke! Get off of me!" I said pushing him off of me.
"Oh come on, you know you still want me." He said smirking and trying to pull me back to him.
"I'm pretty sure she doesn't want you if she pushed you off of her." Thalia said crossing her arms in front of her and giving him a glare. Luke raised his eyebrows at Thalia and then looked back at me.
"All right then." He said "Call me if you ever want to meet up again." He whispered into my ear. I shuttered in disgust as he walked away.
"What a douche. Why can't her just leave you alone?" Thalia asked crinkling her name in disgust.
"I wish he would. Come on, let's check out." I told her pulling, and tugging her towards the checkout counter. Once we check out we headed over to Macy's and bought three shirts and two pants before heading back to the studio.
"Ugh shopping is actually really tiring." I said plopping down onto the couch. "I think I'll just fall asleep right here." I yawned and lay down on the couch, slowly drifting to sleep.
~Line Break~
Percy's P.O.V.
"I don't know man, we've had a rocky past." I said to Nico while playing Call of Duty. "Ha got one." I said gleefully.
"Yea but what happened?" he asked returning his attention to the zombies swarming around him.
"It's complicated, I don't want to talk about it." I said quickly. "Come on I can open this door."
"Okay, fine let me rebuild this barrier first." He grumbled.
"Hurry up you're taking to long!" I whined.
"Wait hold on, my phone is buzzing." He said pausing the game.
"Come one man, we're in the middle of a game!" I continued whining, but he ignored me.
"Okay, we're going to the studio, come one." He said getting up.
"What?! No! I want to play COD."
"Get your lazy ass of the couch and get dressed." Nico said taking my phone away from me.
"Fine. But I want my phone back." I said grabbing it out of his hands and jogging towards my bedroom. Once I was done changing, I headed outside to Nico's car and hopped in.
"Why do we even have to go to the studio anyways? I asked.
"We have to pick up Annabeth, you guys are going on a date." Nico said tapping his fingers on the steering wheel.
"WE'RE WHAT?!" I screamed.
"Oh shit, I knew this would be your reaction. Just relax, all you have to do is eat dinner, and drop her off at her apartment afterwards." He said.
"Fine, but your paying." I said stretching my hand out for money. He grumbled a "fine" and forked over a couple twenty-dollar bills. We arrived at the studio and headed inside to get Annabeth.
"Oh, hey Percy. Annabeth's sleeping on the couch in the writing room." She said gesturing to a door at the end of the hall. "You guys don't have to go somewhere nice, just a random place is fine. As long as your seen in the public eye." She said, turning her attention to Nico. "Why don't we talk in the conference room?" she told him.
"Yea sure, I'll meet you there." He replied.
"Okay, well um...I'll just go wake Annabeth up then." I said awkwardly before walking down to the door. I opened the door and saw her fast asleep, soft snores coming from her mouth. I smiled at ho cute she looked…woah. No, no, no, no, no, she cannot do this to me. I walked over ad shook her a little bit.
"Annabeth, wake up, we have to go on a date." I said and sighed when she didn't even wake up. "Come on Wise Girl don't make me pour water on you." I sighed when she wouldn't get up again, I walked over to the fridge and grabbing a water bottle. I unscrewed the cap and starting pouring water onto her head when she woke up and started cursing.
"What the fuck is wrong with you?! Why the fuck would you wake someone up like that?!" she screamed. I raised my eyebrows.
"Dam Wise Girl, didn't know you had a bad mouth. Should I bring you to the bathroom so I can wash your mouth?" I asked with a smirk.
"Shut up." she grumbled, pushing past me and heading towards the bathroom. "I'll meet you in the car."
*Skip over Dinner, Percy's P.O.V.*
"You guys aren't going to like what we're going to say." Nico said.
"If we won't like it then why say it?" Annabeth muttered drawing shapes onto a piece of paper se had in front of her. I felt myself staring at her and studying her features. Her blonde, curly hair was falling front of her face and framing her cheeks. Her winged eyeliner didn't seem to suit her much and I wish she'd take it off so I could see her—no. No, no, no, no, no, no, she can not do this to me.
"—move in together." Thalia said. That's when my head snapped up.
"Couple conditions." Annabeth said. "He makes his own food, does his laundry, and we sleep in different rooms." Nico and Thalia looked over at me. I nodded my head in agreement.
"Sounds good to me. But we're moving into my place." I said.
"No. We do this, and we move into mine. I refuse to leave my apartment." she said.
"Annabeth, the lease on your apartment is almost done, you only have one month left. There's no point in staying there anymore."
"Fine, but he pays most of the rent."
"Fine by me." I said.
"Great we'll move everything over to Percy's starting tomorrow." Nico said.
"Yippee." Annabeth said sarcastically.
"Right, well we'll leave you guys alone. Maybe try and get some writing done?" Nico asked.
"Yea we'll try." I said not looking up from design on the desk I was studying. Nico sighed and walked Thalia out the door.
"Hey so I know you don't like this, I mean I don't like this either but can we at least be friends?" I asked looking at Annabeth hopefully. Her head napped up and her stormy grey eyes turned darker.
"No, we can not be friends. We will NEVER be friends. Ever. End of discussion." she said storming out of the room. I sighed and pressed my face into my hands.
Why am I so stupid? Why did I have to cheat? Why couldn't I have had more of a brain? I thought to myself.
I'll post more later but I have to go study for my history final! I need a cover for my story so if you make me one, I'll name a character after you!
