This one's about Thalia and Luke. It's set before they meant Annabeth, when Thalia's about thirteen and Luke about fourteen, fifteen.
Thalia POV
I don't remember why all I remember is that Luke and I had, for some odd reason or another, decided to go to a school. It was one of those that had all the grades, first through twelfth. I think we ended up here because we were getting tired of being attacked by monsters and just wanted to be normal teenagers for once. We wanted to do normal stuff, like trash a playground and scare little kids, the normal things teenagers do. To the point now, Luke had two cans of spray paint in his bag and I had taken one of those jumbo toilet paper rolls from one of the schools bathroom. Of course, with our luck, we got caught before even taking out our destruction tools.
"What are you two doing here?" It was a cubby lady with glasses and brown hair. She was storming towards us. "I should write both of you up for being out of area. You know what? Just get to the assembling and I'll forget I saw anything." Then, the teacher lady dragged us into the school's gym where all the other kids were crowded in.
We ended up sitting on the floor in front of the bleachers because all the seats were filled. Luke laid down, using his backpack as a pillow. He looked up at me, motioning to do the same. I glared at him, but did anyway.
"This was a stupid idea," I growled as I laid beside him. "I can't believe I let you talk me into coming to a school while there were people here!"
Hermes's son just rolled his eyes. "It was just as much your idea as it was mine, Thalia!" He snapped. "Look, we'll just stick through this thingy then we'll sneak out while everyone is leaving. No harm done."
I rolled my eyes and continued to glare at him. Of course there was harm done! What if a monster decided to attack us while we were here? We'd have to lure it outside so we didn't fight in front of all these kids. I swear this kid was way too laid back about everything. When will he get being a demigod isn't all it's cracked up to be.
The speaker came out and introduced herself as Martha or Mary or some name that started with M. She was a lady in her forties with black hair and looked be a little on the fat side. I began zoning out.
"Alright students, I've come here today to talk to you guys about sex," she said into a microphone.
That got my attention real fast. Apparently Luke too because he sat up, eyes wide, and said "What the Hades did that women say?" I didn't have time to answer.
"That's right, I'm hear to talk about sex," Luke paled, "and the consequences you get from having it. You may think it pregnancy is the worst but you also have STDs…"
For the next hour the speaker said things I really wished I could erase from my mind. Of course, they did prove my point that girls had it a lot worse than guys. Out of 30 STDs, 26 of them only affected the girls! That really pissed me off. By the time Luke and I had snuck out and got back to our hide out by the river, Luke looked as if he was going to puke his guts out, not that I was better.
Of course, the difference between Luke and I? I could hold my breakfast. The boy ran behind some bushes and puked up all his stomach contents. I gave him a bottle of water when he finally came to sit next to me on the river bank. The guy still had a tint of green to his face but I couldn't say I was any better.
"That was horrible," Luke muttered, drinking water, trying to get the taste of puke from his mouth. "Who talks to middle schoolers about that stuff?" A shudder went through his body.
"Some of them looked like they were in high school too," I noted.
We sat in silence for a while before Luke finally decided to talk again. "You're mom, she never gave you "the talk" did she?" I shook my head. "Lucky. My mom went into detail. I think I might puke again." He covered his mouth and swallowed down the crud. "I guess I get the duty of telling you the embarrassing stuff." He smirked and turned to sit facing me.
"Luke," I said. "You do not have to do this! I mean, I figured out all the stuff I need on my own and that lady just told me everything else."
Luke raised an eyebrow. "Really?" He asked. I nodded. "What happens if a guy does this?" He shot forward, his hands falling on my chest.
Let's just say he'll be seeing stars and sing soprano for a week, shall we?
"Do that again and I hide your body in the riverbed dumb ass!" I yelled, tossing his sleeping bag out our little hut. "You can sleep out there!"
"Still worth it!" Luke yelled back, before taking off. As expected, I ran after him with my sword, yelling about how I'd cut off any chance he had of getting an STD.
Just a little something funny (: It's shorter than the rest but I couldn't help myself :3 Review :D
