An.) Here is chapter 4. Enjoy and REVIEW. And shoot I just realized how many spelling and grammar mistakes I have made in the last chapter. I'm so sorry I just really wanted a chapter up for you guys. Anyways hope this is better than before.
Percy's POV
Last thing I expected was to see that blonde again. Nor did I expect her to be BFFs with my cousin. Life never gives me what I want, not that I wanted to see her. Plus I didn't want to get into a relationship now I had this project to do in California. It was in this small town that was a mile long and I had to go to this center for blind people I think? I not sure for I could know it might be for people that were part alien. You know what I don't care. I'm just going to just relax and enjoy my visit in California. It was next week in case you're wondering. Anyways I was going to my number one favorite coffee shop in the world. Why do I call it coffee shop? Whatever. Anyways I was just walking to my favorite stall in the world and realized somebody took my spot…. A girl that looked familiar. Could that be Annabeth or whatever her name was? Oh well I might as well be friendly and kindly share my stall with her. Oh yeah then we started talking. I can't even remember what I said I sounded too much like an idiot. Anyways the next thing I knew I was fist bumping the most annoying cousin in the world: Thalia. Can I just say that she has also the most painful, intense and did I mention painful fist bumps? That just proves I wasn't thinking at all. Who in their right mind would fist pump that girl? Gosh my fist hurts. I probably am never going write again. Hey there is a bright side in this situation. Yes it's a situation; a guy does not may I repeat not shriek like a girl at all times. Dang it I probably should go and walk away from this now.
Annabeth's POV
"You signed me up for what?"
"It's a program that helps the blind. It would be good for you."
"But's it's in California! Across the country! I can barely find my way into the bathroom, how can you expect me to find my way to California?"
"You were born there. It's your home town! You used to love it there. You broke my kneecap when I insisted we move to New York."
Well this was a bummer. I was going to ask my dad if the books I asked him to order was here yet but he had to sign me up for some stupid program in California. It's not that I had anything against California it's just that I like it here in New York. Wait what about shelter how was I supposed to survive out in California without anybody's help? People need to use their brains before doing anything else. Hey I should practice my violin. I hadn't played it for such a long time… I took out the case and ran my hands along the side until I found the buckle. I pulled on it and it immediately gave way. The case was open. I ran my hands along the four strings plucking them with my fingertips. I found the bow and I took it out and ran my hand against it. I took out the violin and started playing one of my favorite songs ever, Kiss the Rain, it was by the artist: Yiruma. His music was great but this was my favorite. I think piano sounded better with this song but I guess violin was good too. I played piano too but I just never liked it as much as violin. I don't know why maybe because playing violin was my mom's idea. My birth mom's idea. I hated her yet I loved her. I pulled the bow against the strings making share to get the purest sound you can get. I loved hearing the sound of the strings being pulled by the bow.
Flashback…
"Annabeth, try making the best sound you can!"
"Okay, mommy!"
I could hear daddy whispering to my mom that I sounded like a cat dying. I guessed I did but it was just my first lesson. I'll get better. I pulled the bow more and my mommy smiled.
I loved those days. I would learn both violin and piano at the same time. I remember my dad asking me if I wanted to play the harp and the flute too but I had enough on my little shoulders back then. I still go to piano lessons but since I was an expert at violin so I didn't really need lessons anymore and my dad couldn't afford the bills. My dad was so into making me learn how to play instruments back then. Piano was his idea and violin was my mom's. I think they both chose one instrument for me to play. I realized that I had put away my violin when I was thinking and was playing the piano. I stopped playing and crawled downstairs. I wasn't used to this sort of thing yet. I felt like a kid crawling everywhere. But yet I feel like I'm still a kid with major issues.
