Annabeth's P.O.V.
We just stare at Nira.
With blonde hair, gray or white in some places as the light touches it, put in bouncy curls, and her eyes. Blue eyes, lighter toward the top, and dark toward the bottom, creating a almost black blue. She has a tight black dress on, going to her knees, and blue flats.
The way she looked at me was like I'm trash.
I hate her instantly.
She turns to Story and squeals.
"My little sis!" she cries.
Story goes for a hug but she shrugs her off and turns to me.
"Who's that?" she asks in disgust.
I fidget with my glasses and look down.
"That's Percy and I's best friend, Annabeth." Story smiles.
"Doesn't look like much." she sneers.
I look down.
"She is." Percy says.
Nira eyes Percy.
"And WHO are you?" she asks, batting her eyelashes.
"I'm gonna go." I say, sprinting to the door.
"Annabeth Athena Chase!" I freeze at my middle name.
My dead mother's name.
"Get back here." Story instructs.
I walk back over and lean into Percy, feeling if I press hard enough I'll disappear.
"Athena? Like the dead one?" Nira asks.
I stare at her with hatred.
"She's your mother isn't she?" Nira smirks. "My dad said she built horrid buildings."
I get up and run to the door, ignoring them call my name.
I feel someone spin me around and look to face Percy.
"Let me go." I say.
He throws me over his shoulder as I scream, punching his back.
I crack a smile as he walks back.
"Perseus!" I say.
He flinches at his full name but keeps going.
"Let me go!" I try to be serious but I end up laughing in the middle of my sentence.
He brings me back in and Story grins while Nira glares daggers at his hands on my waist.
He puts me down on his lap and wraps his arms and legs around mine so I can't escape.
I finally slump back, defeated.
He puts his chin on my shoulder so he can see everyone else.
"Lets continue." he grins.
I groan.
"Let me go!"
"Never!" he laughs.
"Anyways, Nira are you staying here or a hotel?" Story asks Nira.
"Here of course." she points a finger at us. "You dating?"
We turn pink. "No!" we say simultaneously.
"Yea, he's too hot for you anyways." she smirks at me.
"Okay thats it!" Story says. "What do you have against Annabeth? She's the most awesome person I've ever met in my life, hopefully she's going to be my step sister, PERCY. So why do you not like her?"
My glasses fall off my face at that moment. I move my fingers to grab them.
"Can you put these back on?" I ask Percy.
He nods, moves one arm, and puts them on, slightly crooked.
I laugh with a thank you.
"I don't like her. I got a bad feeling about her. Like she's evil." Nira says and I snort.
She looks at me with seriousness and grabs my chin, pulling it up and starts looking.
She takes my glasses.
"HEY!" I say. "I can't see anything!"
She smirks, takes my glasses, and chucks them out the window.
I slip off Percy's lap, trying to walk to the window.
I only hit my shin on the coffee table hard and fall with a ," OH MY GODS!"
I get up, ignoring the swelling, and stumble to the window.
"Why'd you do that?" I ask her, slamming into the wall.
I just fall down.
"You're prettier without them." she grins.
"Yeah, and I slam into walls without them!" I say.
Story goes up to her room to get my extra pair I keep in her room.
I groan and stumble over to the fuzzy blob that is the couch.
I sit down and realize it's on Percy.
"Sorry!" I say, slipping off his lap.
"No problem." he says.
Nira sits next to me and I scoot over to Percy.
"What does your family see in you?" she asks.
Percy knows my past with my family and tenses.
My father acts like I don't exist, the twins don't do anything but prank me, and Susan calls m a monster.
I look down. "Nothing."
"There not the only ones." she grins.
"Can you leave?" Percy snaps.
"I'm here all week honey." she winks and I look at her in disgust.
Story come back with my back up glasses, thin wired purple glasses with huge lenses only held up by purple wire, wrapped like a tree.
She hands them to me and I slip them on with a sigh.
"She looked better with the other ones." Nira says.
I snap. "WELL NOW THERE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE KOI POND, AND WHO'S FAULT IS THAT?"
She fake gasps at me and Story smirks.
"Can you stay tonight Annabeth?" Story asks.
"Not like my family cares."
"Wanna make dessert explosions?" she asks.
"Why not?" I grin with Percy.
"What's a Dessert Explosion?" Nira asks.
I whisper to Percy," It's where we chop your head off, wanna play?" as Story explains," We make a bunch of desserts and put them all in a big plate and eat them."
Percy bursts out laughing at what I said and Story and Nira stare at us in confusion.
"Let's go Wise Girl." he says and I groan at the nickname.
"Seaweed Brain, don't do the thing you did last time-" but it's too late.
He scooped me up bridal style and carries me into the kitchen while I laugh.
Story and Nira follow, Story smiling and Nira fuming.
He puts me down on the counter and we just stare at eachother for about four minutes until Nira clears her throat and we jump, Percy into the other counter and me on a ledge in the corner of the room.
"Lets get started!" she chirps.
Story, Percy, and I race to get supplies while Nira sits there, complaining about her nails.
We gather everything and put it in a circle.
We all grab plates and stack them with random desserts, some normal, some never heard of.
We clean up, without Nira's help, and go to the living room again.
Once we're done we all go to Story's room, Percy going to his friends somewhere or other.
Nira, Story, and I sit on the bed.
Soon Story whips her phone out and texts some people to come over for truth or dare.
"Last time we played truth or dare, Nico had a seizure and Juniper had to have meat. That poor vegetarian!" I complain.
"We'll be fine." she assures me. "Thalia says can't come over, gotta clean living room."
"Tell her I said hurry up or she'll wake up in pink clothes that are too tight to take off." I threaten.
She texts it and soon comes back with a ding.
"She said fine and she hates you, Annie."
I take out my recording and play it.
She smiles and soon our friends come in.
Grover, Juniper, Leo, Nico, Percy, Thalia, Katie, Chris, Travis, and Clarisse sit in a circle around us.
"Annabeth has this many friends? How many did she pay?" Nira asks.
I glare holes into her skin.
"None." Juniper says.
"No come on, how many?" Nira says.
"None." Piper says firmly.
Nira turns to me. "How does this thing have this many friends?"
All my friends gape at her and then at me.
I do my eyebrow move. I put one up as high as I can and the other one down and give them my best death glare.
She recoils and I laugh.
"But I mean she's ugly!" Nira says.
My friends freeze.
Before Piper can rip her eyes out of their sockets I say," Pipes, I got this."
I hug Nira hard.
"What are you doing?"
"I know life's really hard for the visually impaired, but we'll get through together."
My friends laugh as her face turns red with anger.
Story clears her throat. "Lets get started." she looks like she's trying not to laugh.
I smirk with one thought.
I win.
Thalia's P.O.V.
I came home an hour later and slipped to bed without anyone noticing.
I start thinking about Percy's new friend, Nico.
He's REALLY cute.
I don't like boys, but him, woah!
He was cute!
Like, super cute.
Oh Gods, thirteen year old me is back.
But it's not bad.
WOAH!
I fall asleep thinking about a certain black eyed boy.
Hello, My Lovelies!
Yes, Nira's evil. I HAD to!
It felt right!
And I had to make Athena dead. I'M SORRY!
(Not)
Okay, yeah I am…
