I don't own Percy Jackson and the Olympians.
Percy's P.O.V.
"And who are you?" asked a man from my right. He had mismatch eyes and was big. The man was dead scary and I've dealt with monster like Medusa and the Hydra.
"P-Percy Jackson, sir." I said. He narrowed his eyes.
"PERCY?" Annabeth called.
"Jackson!" Thalia called after her saying my full name.
"See?" I told the guy. They came around the corner with their bags.
"Who are you two too?" The man asked. I almost laughed at that. It sounded like tu-tu. Then a woman came out.
"Is there a problem, Dr. Thorn? Who are these children?"
"Mrs. Gotschalk, this is Percy Jackson and his two friends. Heard of him?" Dr. Thorn questioned his nostrils flaring.
"They're transfer students." Ms. Gotschalk said. Ha-ha. Gots Chalk? I'll try that one on her later. "Your roommates are here in the office waiting to show you to your dorms." she said then out came Grover and two others who looked like twins. They had dark brown eyes, olive skin, and black hair. "Introduce yourselves then hurry to unpack." she said then sharply turned back into her office with a suspicious Dr. Thorn behind her.
"Perrrrrrcyy!" Grover bleated and he and I shared a hug.
"Nice to see you, G-man." I answered.
"This is our roommate, Nico di Angelo." Grover told me. I shook hands with the boy who looked to be a few years younger than myself.
Thalia and Annabeth got acquainted with the girl, who's name is Bianca di Angelo, Nico's older sister.
We all went upstairs to our dorms which were only three away which Annabeth took as a good omen since three is a sacred number with us Greeks. Nico, Grover, and I went into our dorm and it was alright. Better than previous ones I've had. It wasn't too clean but you could tell there weer attempts at cleaning up. Things were stashed under the bunk beds, the dressers were jammed with crap, and the bathroom looked like a laundry room of dirty clothes. It looks like I'd already stayed here.
"We have room exceptions on Wednesdays at 9." Grover said and Nico nodded.
"And you don't look like a neat freak." Nico commented.
"Sorry." I told him with a shrug.
"Three slobs in one dorm is all we need." Grover mumbled.
"What's the penalty for messy dorms?" I asked.
"Work detention." Grover answered.
"Wow. They aren't kidding. Isn't that like child labor or something?" I asked. Nico sadly shook his head.
The guys helped me unpack and we attempted to clean the room saving the bathroom for later.
"Your not a criminal of any sort are you?" Nico questioned me.
"What? No." I answered.
"Good because I don't want to find any of my stuff missing." Nico said in a threatening little kid voice.
"Yes sir." I said with a smirk.
"How do you two know each other?" Nico asked Grover and I.
"We went to school together for a year." I answered.
"He got kicked out." Grover added and I shot him an annoyed look. "And it's not the first time."
"What'd you do?" Nico asked me like he related to that issue.
"You don't have to be the bad guy to get kicked out." I said and he nodded in understanding.
"I've been through three schools." he said.
"I've been through seven. This is my eighth." I answered.
Nico's eyes widened and I smiled.
"Your not the only one, kid." I said.
The rest of the night Nico asked me questions then showed me this Greek Mythology game and I was a little nervous about him saying the names of gods, monsters, etc. Over all the kid seemed to like me. His eyes lit up everytime I told him something about myself, unrelated to the Greek half.
Thalia's P.O.V.
"So…" I began.
"Are you and Percy dating?" Bianca blurted out.
"What?" I asked my cheeks becoming red.
"You know the guy you came with? Are you two dating?" Bianca asked looking down at her feet.
"No!" I answered quickly and Annabeth was stifling a laugh.
"You so wish you two were." she said. My face got redder, I tried to play it off as anger.
"I don't like Kelp Head!" I growled.
"Suuuure." Annabeth said sitting on her bunk with a book in hand.
"Didn't mean to make you mad just the way you two were…" Bianca trailed seeing my expression.
"Were what?" I asked trying to seem calm so she'd dare to finish.
"You two stayed close. You walked closer he shifted like he was ready to have your back in an attack or something. You two are always together and-"
"What do you mean we're always together? You just met us today and we were together for about five minutes." I asked her. Bianca looked nervous then went to her bed not responding. Annabeth and I shared a confused look.
"Where have you seen them before?" Annabeth asked.
"I- I just met you guys today." she said.
"But you seemed to act surprised when you saw them." Annabeth pressed. "Even me." she stated.
"I'm sorry-"
"Don't apologize, just tell us." I said softly. She seemed so strong willed but fragile I respected her for it. It reminded me of myself a few years before I was a tree.
"I've had a dream about you guys before. Or rather dreams." Bianca confessed. I sat next to Annabeth on her bed to listen to this.
"Thalia and Percy were talking on a hill leaning against a large pine tree. Then they were at the beach and then we all were sitting around a fire and Percy's arm was around Thalia's shoulders and her head rested on his shoulder. Then Annabeth was reading a book in the shade of that pine tree and and seemed to be there a lot. Through out the seasons of summer, winter, fall, and spring." Bianca finished her telling.
"Weird. It's like you've been watching us all along." Annabeth mumbled.
"And imagined a bit." I added. Percy hasn't ever put his arm around my shoulders with my head on his around a camp fire. I would remember that moment. There was a knock on the door and I opened it to see the boys.
"Wanna get a smoothie, Bianca? Percy is so cool you should listen to what happened to him through out school!" Nico said excitedly. "You two can come too." he added not to be rude.
"Nico… Alright. Let's go." Bianca said. I gave Bianca a comforting smile then tried to make her forget about the mystery of her dreams and me forget about me and Percy's part in that.
Annabeth's P.O.V.
As Percy told Nico about himself on a mortal scale, so they wouldn't find out yet, I was watching Thalia. She smiled at everything Percy said then would look sad and look away. I knew exactly what she was thinking about too. I'm no daughter of Aphrodite but I knew Thalia better than anyone, besides the one giving her issues, Luke. She was starting to like Percy the way she liked Luke. But she still liked Luke but he betrayed her and us. He practically killed her to our dismay and Percy, Tyson, Clarisse, and I saved her. I have trouble trying to give in and trust Percy. She no doubt developed feelings for Luke. They shared moments while we were on the run for our lives.
I wanted to let her know everything would be fine, she just needed to trust Percy. He's like a younger brother to me. Stupid but protective. He's the understanding younger brother I never had. He's gained my trust which is hard especially after what Luke's done. I just hope she's strong enough to take him down if it comes to it.
Please review!
