Chapter 7: Awkward?!
A/N: sorry guys for the late chappie again. New term just started and I've been pretty busy lately. Am gonna try to be more regular though. Thank you to all the followers, reviewers and alerters. Hope you enjoy this chapter. Oh and sorry guys, the previous chapter had to be Annabeth POV because I needed this to be a Percy POV.
Fri0003: well I guess she was over reacting a bit. Romeo and Juliet… were you talking about Percy and Annabeth? If you were, this chapter might answer your question. Thanks for the support though. Hopefully I'll be more regular with it. Thanks for reviewing.
Percy POV
As I read the crumpled piece of paper, I grinned to myself. I couldn't wait for today evening. I wonder where she lived. Find out soon enough though. As maths continued to drone on I looked around the class and my eyes finally landed on Annabeth. She had princess like blonde curls and these intense grey eyes which could be either angry at you or far way or distant. Hold up, when did I ever start thinking like this about girls. Just then the bell rang. We grabbed our books and started walking in the hallway. Annabeth and Thals were gossiping about girly stuff when I noticed many guys giving me the glare. What did I do? Was it Annabeth? Nah can't be can it. That reminded me and I grinned to myself. I hadn't seen Rachel all day. As I was enjoying the pleasure…
"Perrrrccyyy! Where have you been all day! Ive been waiting for you. Haven't you ever heard? Never keep a girl waiting."
Annabeth looked towards me and raised an eyebrow. Thalia just smirked. Help I mouthed.
" Uhh I don't know who you are but I'm new and kelp head's cousin so bye!" Thalia said.
Thank you Thalia! But that wasn't enough to make the demon go away.
"Ack, and who are you, other girl with my Perce?"
"Firstly, I don't like you and this is…" I groaned.
"I'm Annabeth. Annabeth Chase."
"Now if you excuse us we gotta get to English." Thalia shrugged her off.
As we entered the other side of the building spending all our time complaining about Rachel I remembered our play again. We walked in and took our seats. Paul talked about the criteria we will be graded on and started explaining our new chapter. I zoned out again and time flew by.
Soon enough it was lunch. I brought Annabeth and Thalia to my table and introduced them to each other, also Thalia and Jason were siblings.
Jason suddenly cleared his throat, "Did you meet…." And gave us weird looks as Annabeth and I made violent don't ask about Luke signs.
"Did you meet Paul?" asked Jason.
Nice save I mouthed. He nodded slightly.
We finished lunch and all our other lessons.
Annabeth and I were walking to her house which by the way was near my house when she felt over her pockets for her keys. Her eyes widened and she swore loudly.
"What?!" I asked her completely bewildered.
"Its just that, I was to take the house keys as my parents and brothers have gone to Disneyland for the weekend and they will only be back on Sunday night." She said in a single shaky breath
"I guess you could ask Thalia?"
"Oh yeah ok. Ok."
As we entered my house she ran to the telephone and called up Thalia. They had a hurried conversation. By the end of it she looked shocked and scared.
"Shes not at home tonight." She said
"It is a Friday night. I guess you could stay at my place. If you want to of course."
" Well… okay I guess I have to."
We went up to my room and she made herself at home. I told her she could sleep on the bed in my room while I slept on the couch in the living room. She looked comfortable with that.
We both took a deep breath and I said, " Lets get started on Romeo and Juliet."
A/N: hope you liked it. Review, comment, share, follow, favourite. I'll try to update more often.
