AN: Here is Chapter 5
Isabella
The past two weeks have been weird. My classes have been going well and I have been studying my butt off for the finals. I haven't seen Percy after I bumped into him except for my ancient history class. My training has been going well. I am finally able to summon fire without wood and my archery and sword fighting have improved a lot.
It's the last week before finals and everyone has been acting weird. The teachers are more cheerful than usual and students are acting like life doesn't matter. It's finally lunch time. I walk to the cafeteria and sat at a empty table. While I was eating my lunch, a figure went by and sat across from me . It was Percy. He's wearing a blue hoodie with jeans and blue tennis shoes. He was looking at me with a confused " Why are you eating lunch alone?" He asked. I looked at him like he asked me a stupid question. " I don't have any friends." I said. His face expression turns into a frown. It then changes into a smile. " Well you have one now." I look at him in shock. " Did he just became my friend ?" I thought. He starts to call someone else over to over to over table. She had curly red hair and was wearing an Art club t-shirt with a purple jacket and jeans with red tennis shoes. She came over and sat right next to Percy. " Rachel this Isabella" " Isabella this is Rachel" I waved hello to Rachel and she did the same back. " We are going to be Isabella's friends." Percy smiles like he did a good thing.
Rachel gives Percy a weird look. " Percy, did you ask her if she want's to be friends with us ?" " Uh, no." Rachel sighs. " Dude, your supposed to ask if she wants to be friends with you first." " Oh, sorry i just thought since she had a sad look on her face and that she was eating alone, I thought that she wanted a friend. " It true that I was sad that I haven't gotten a friend yet. Percy looks at me. " Sorry if I sounded forceful, you seemed like you needed a friend form the way you were sitting here looking sad." " If you don't want to be friends, that's fine." " We'll get out of your hair tomorrow." I look at Percy. " We can be friends" " Sorry about my reaction" " it's just that I never have had a friend in awhile so I was just surprised." I smile at Percy and Rachel. They both looked at me with questioning expressions, but instantly changed it into a smile.
As we ate we talked about school finals, classes that we're taking and random topics to get to know each other. Rachel looks at me and asks me a question. " Isabella, why did you decided to enter school at four weeks of the semester left." I think of a way to find an answer that doesn't involve me lying. " My mom has been homeschooling me for the past few years" " She wanted me to be with people my own age since I've only been around my mom for as long as I can remember" " My mom wanted me to have the experience as soon as possible, so here I am" " The only time I've been away from my mom was when I was once when I was little."
Percy face saddens. " So, you have always been with your mom" " What happened to your dad ?" Rachel scolded him. " Can you give us a moment please." I nod. They start whispering to each other.
Percy
I just got out of my classes. I walk into the cafeteria with my lunch that I got from home that has my mom's blue cookies. I look around to see if there's a table for me to sit by. As I look I see a familiar face sitting at a table alone. It was Isabella. She has long black wavy hair and eyes mixed with green and orange-brown. She's wearing a orange t-shirt that says "Keep Calm and Flame On" with jeans and blue tennis shoes. She was a girl that I bumped into two weeks ago.
Now she's sitting at a table alone. On my perspective from here it looks like she's sad. " I wonder if she has any friends to sit with at lunch." I thought. I walk over to her. She didn't notice i was there until she saw me sitting down on a chair across from her. She looked surprised that I'm here. "" Why are you eating lunch alone?" I asked. She gave me a look like i just asked something stupid. She answers back. " I don't have any friends." I frowned. That's sad to not have any friends when it's almost the end of the school year.
Suddenly I got an idea. I'll be her friend. I smile at Isabella." Well you have one now." She looks at me with shock. I look around and see Rachel has gotten her food. I start to call her over to our table. She came over and sat right next to me." Rachel this Isabella" " Isabella this is Rachel" Isabella waved hello to Rachel and she did the same back. " We are going to be Isabella's friends." I smile. Rachel gives me a weird look. " Percy, did you ask her if she want's to be friends with us ?" " Uh, no."
Rachel gives me a weird look. " Percy, did you ask her if she want's to be friends with us ?" " Uh, no." Rachel sighs. " Dude, your supposed to ask if she wants to be friends with you first." I didn't think of it like that. " Oh, sorry I just thought since she had a sad look on her face and that she was eating alone, I thought that she wanted a friend." I look at Isabella. " Sorry if I sounded forceful, you seemed like you needed a friend form the way you were sitting here looking sad." " If you don't want to be friends, that's fine." " We'll get out of your hair tomorrow." She looks at me. " We can be friends" " Sorry about my reaction" " it's just that I never have had a friend in awhile so I was just surprised." She smile at me and Rachel. I both looked at her with a questioning expression, but instantly changed it into a smile.
As we ate we talked about school finals, classes that we're taking and random topics to get to know each other. Rachel looks at Isabella and asks her a question. " Isabella, why did you decided to enter school at four weeks of the semester left. She answered. She answers. " My mom has been homeschooling me for the past few years" " She wanted me to be with people my own age since I've only been around my mom for as long as I can remember" " My mom wanted me to have the experience as soon as possible, so here I am" " The only time I've been away from my mom was when I was once when I was little."
I frown. I feel as if I should ask about her father for some reason. She could be a demigod for all I know. " So, you have always been with your mom" " What happened to your dad ?" Rachel scolds me. She looks at Isabella. " Can you give us a moment please." Isabella nods.
Rachel whispers at me. " Why are you being so forceful today ?" " You know that question is a little too personal when you're just getting to know a person, right?" I look at Isabella to see if she's hearing our conversation. " I know, but I had i feeling to ask in case if she could be a demigod." I whispered. She looks at me. " That's understandable, but you have also consider the possibility of her not being a demigod and you're asking her a really personal question." I sigh. She's right about that.
I look at Isabella. " Sorry about asking a very personal question like that." " You don't have to answer it if you don't want to." She looks at me and smiles. " That's okay, I knew I would if I made friends that I would have to tell them about that." I smile in relief that I didn't really offend her.
She sighs. " I never actually met my father." " When I was a baby, my mom died after I was born." " My mom didn't have any family, so the hospital was going to put me in an orphanage." " When my father found out, he went in the hospital and got me. He took me to his sister's house and she look me in and has been my mom ever since." " That's all I know from how my mom has told me." Her face saddens. Rachel walks over right next to her and givers her a hug. " I have never met him in person ever since." " My mom tells me that he's doing this to protect me from his family, but i still feel like I should be able to see him once."
I frown. That reminded of before I found out that I was a demigod, when I never knew who my dad was. I decided to change the subject. " Isabella, what's your favorite color ? " " Blue and orange." She answered." I can't really choose one so." I smile " Mine is blue too" " I basically love it to where I love foods that are blue." I show her my mom's blue chocolate chip cookies. " You want one ?" I askes. " Sure." " Shw takes a cookie and starts eating it " These are so good." She smiles.
After the cookies were gone, the bell rang for our next class. " See you tomorrow Isabella." " Bye Percy" I waved her goodbye and walked with Rachel to our Algebra class.
