Seriously? No happiness? Ungrateful! (JK) I am back yet again, and you cannot get rid of me! Okay, maybe you can... but I am being serious
(Not). I am starting question time: A method used by a good friend of mine named AEB. Find her on my profile. Check out her stories
sometime! Here it is though.
Annabeth's POV
The second that bell rang, I rushed out of there. He saw me: But no sign of recognition whatsoever crossed his face.
Does he not remember? Or is he just pretending...
I don't know. All I know is that I can't trust him. Not yet, anyways. My next hour is P.E. which is gruesome. Basically this class is slpit up into two sides: Side
A and Side B. I was on side B; although almost all the "Nerd" type people were. The jocks and cheerleaders were on Side A.
Go figure.
I went into the locker room, and tried to change into my gym clothes as discreetly as possible. A little bit difficult, especially when there are a whole bunch of
other girls all around changing too.
I try and take my top off as quickly as possible and pull on my t-shirt, when someone comes from behind me and goes- BOO! I scream and turn around, only
to see my friend Thalia trying to keep a straight face. I glare at her, which makes it worse.
"What?" She asks completely oblivious.
"Thals, don't do that again." I try and say calmly.
"Annie, you know I can't make any promises.." She starts, but I angrily cut her off.
"Don't call me that!" I say while playfully smacking the side of her head. I try and be gentle, because if not I'd be sure to get my ass kicked.
You see: Thalia isn't one to play around with. She claims she isn't Goth or emo, but her style says otherwise. With short black hair and the palest skin, I see
a vampire in disguise. Except her eyes are so lively: Electric blue as if pulsating with electricity throughout them. Her clothes style isn't much different either,
usually band T-shirts I've never even heard of before or.. pretty much anything black. The P.E. uniform causes such a riot for her: The girls have to wear
pinks and grey while the guys wear blue and grey. Thalia isn't crazy about it, but she tries with her best effort to disobey the rules. Usually slipping in a little
black wristband here and there, and she's good to go. There's also a rule about no heavy eye makeup, and it drives her nuts.
She loads on the eyeliner, and eye shadow, and mascara, It's a surprise she can even keep her eyelids opened.
She is forced to wash some of it off, or she doesn't get a passing grade for the day.
She's beautiful without the makeup: but she thinks otherwise.
"Jeez Thals, can I change please? But can you... be a guard?" I have a thing with my body- I feel extremely uncomfortable with people looking at me .
"Sure Ann-" She starts, but I give her a warning glare.
"-Nabeth." She finishes.
"But you have quite the body, stop hiding it." She says, but she doesn't know. Nobody but a few people..
I change as quickly as I can, but then the bitch of the Seniors appears.
"Look at poor little Annie. What is she hiding, stretch marks?" She says.
"Fuck you, Drew." Thalia says trying to defend me, but I can do that perfectly on my own.
"You know what Drew? I don't have time for people like you. Go find one of the many boys you string along, I'm sure they can't wait for you to go have sex
with them in the supply closet." I say, aware of what she does and what she's known for. By this she's taken aback, and I can't wipe the smirk off my face.
"You know what? You guys are both sluts. Especially you Thalia. I know who you slept with." Drew smiles with a sense of satisfaction, while Thalia's face
visibly pales- which seems impossible because she's already pretty pale. This leaves me puzzled, so I start to spout out whatever the hell I can.
"Oh, Drew, You are such a hypocrite calling us sluts when you've slept with all of the football team." I say. She smiles sweetly and says, "Oh yes, I did." She
leans closer to my ear and whispers:
"I slept with your little boyfriend too. Might I say, he's too good for you." She purrs. I have to bite back a sob, because he would never cheat on me, right?
Apparently I have this weird look on my face because she says,
"We did it more than once too."
"Shut up Drew." I say.
"I'm going to get that new kid too. He seems to die for. With those eyes- but poor little Annie will never have a chance. She's too ugly-" That's when I lose
control. I pop her right in her nose, probably breaking it. I might've thrown in a few more, but I can't tell. All I remember is being pulled from Drew's broken
body and to the office.
As I walk to the office(Escorted actually) I see a few surprised faces. I guess its kind of weird to see the "Good" Student go to the office with bloody knuckles
and a scowl, huh?
A few said, "Yeah, way to got Chase!" I was just surprised they actually knew who I was..
The principal, Mrs. Castillo gasped when she saw me, actually.
"My, my. Annabeth! Who tried picking a fight with you? Oh, those knuckles better be from self defense. You know what, I'm sick and tired of people
underestimating me.
"You know what? I started the fight. I left Drew broken there, and I am not the person you might think I am." I say confidently. She seems surprised.
"Okay, I'm calling your father." My eyes widen.
"No- er, I mean, you wouldn't want that, right? I mean.. he's kind of crazy." I say trying to persuade him to not call him. A word about my dad: He's just
about as bad as my mom. If either one of them heard about this, I'm dead meat.
"I'm sorry, but it's kind of my job to do it." She says, already dialing the number. I roll my eyes.
"Yes, is this Mr. Chase speaking I'm calling.." And so I zone out at that point. The time passes and the only thing that snaps me out of it is a shake of my
shoulder, and looking up to see my father.
"Let's go." He says calmly. I nod and grab my things. Once we get to the car, he grows mad.
"Annabeth! Do you know how badly this reflects on us? Your brother?" I roll my eyes. Oh please, Like Malcolm doesn't already do that to himself.
"I thought you were the good child, but judging on last year-" I wince at that.
"You've forced me to think otherwise. Did you know that Drew girl needs 8 stitches? A broken nose? Do you ever stop to think-"
"I'm trying, dad! She practically begged for it. She-"
"I don't want to hear it." He states calmly.
"Fine." I say with an exasperated sigh.
"Just wait for your mother though." He says.
"My mom? You don't even talk to her! You went and cheated on her and-" I start, but he interrupts.
"THAT'S ENOUGH OF THAT!" He screams.
"Okay." I say in a small voice. By that time, we've already made it back home. I get out as quickly as I can and run straight for my room. He doesn't stop me
as I slam the door. Not even when I call my boyfriend to pick me up, and escape out my window.
"Hey Annabeth." He says.
"Hey Luke."
Dun, dun, dun! I think you would've guessed who her boyfriend was, but if not leave a review! Question time!
Q: What's your favorite Logan Lerman movie?
A: I choose The Perks Of Being A Wallflower!
Now, it's your turn. :) Leave it in the reviews! If you don't particularly know him, which you should; because he's the movie version of Percy,
then don't fret. It's okay! Until next time, Mrs. LeoValdez15 is out.
