GWENS POV
7. Out of love
After I got over the Percy and Annabeth incident, I made my way home, but not before Connor grabbed my arm.
'Gwen just think about it.' he said, talking about me considering being his girlfriend.
I just nodded my head and headed home.
Once I got home I had my dinner as soon as I got in, as it was being layed on the table, once I had my dinner I went upstairs and cried myself to sleep.
The truth was, and I know it sounds stupid, (well to me it does) but I cared more about the Percy and Annabeth incident than I let on.
Once I woke up the next day, I ran out my door and stopped suddenly, because Thalia stood outside my door.
'How did you know where I live?' I asked.
'I don't, I was just wandering around, Percy lives a few houses down. I was going to speak with him, but seeing as you're out earlier, I'll speak with you.' She said.
'Shouldn't we wait for Percy?' I countered.
'Um...No, I'd rather speak with you two alone.' She decided.
'Okay.' I started and we walked to school.
'How are you from yesterdays incident?' She asked.
'Oh I'm fine. Why?' I replied.
'You've got a. Scab in the shape of a ring around your eye.' She said.
'I can't go to school like this!' I exclaimed.
'Look the news you'll receive is much bigger than what happened to you yesterday.' Thalia promised.
'How?' I asked. 'How could it be bigger?' I asked in utter disbelief.
'You'll see.' She said smiling.
Once we got in school, I heard many converations, but Thalia said they were all the same just reached different people at different times.
'So what have you gathered?' She asked.
'People are sorry abut what happened to my face, but something about Luke.' I said.
'He left, and got expelled' Annabeth said coming up and hugging me.
'Which to me sounds pretty weired.' Piper added also hugging me.
'So he just left?' I asked.
'And got expelled.' Percy said coming up and hugging me.
'Impossible.' Rachel said, coming towards us.
'Still hanging out...' Percy covered my ears. 'With. Her?' Rachel asked.
Percy just nodded, taking his hands away from my ears.
Rachel then left us.
'That was weird.' Thalia and Piper said.
Percy ran off to his first class, not wanting to listen to girl stuff.
'Um I got to get to class.' Annabeth said slowly backing away and following Percy.
Then we all departed, I had French with Grover, but I sat at a desk with two chairs, but I was the only one sitting at that desk.
The day went by slowly, we were recapping on the verbs learned last year, I wasn't here, and I didn't know a thing about french, so I had to read and learn from books while everyone else was recapping.
My second lesson was Geography, I had that with Thalia, we were both rubbish at it. We listened, but didn't have a clue, on what to do, our minds always drifted off to something else.
My thirl lesson was Drama, I was sad Percy had the lead role with a girl named Jessica and I was a friend of jessicas in the play, I always talked to her from the end of Drama to the start of English, Mr Blofis was always fun, he made our lessons interesting, he always tells us a story about the second world war although he'd never been part of it. His stories were alwys fictional, they also helped with the lesson.
Science and maths whizzed by after lunch, which was an elaborate part of the day.
We were let out to lunch rather quickly, I saw Katie sitting alone by herself.
'How come you're by yourself?' I asked.
'I didn't feel well enough to go to class.' She replied.
'Do you feel any better?' I asked her.
'A little.' She replied. ' Would you mind getting me a bottle of water?' She asked.
'Course not.' I replied, putting my bag under the table and making my way to the vending machine.
Once I brought back the bottle of water I saw Katie asleep. I didn't want to wake her up so I put the bottle of water infront of her and sat next to her careful not to wake her up.
'Hey Gwen.' Percy said walking into the cafateria with Nico.
I saw Thalia creep behind Nico, wrapping her arms around him, tackling him to the floor.
Once I got up, and once Percy reache me, he gave me a peck on the cheek, before he came to sit by me at the table.
I noticed Travis come in, he was about to get something to eat, but he glanced in our direction and saw Katie asleep, he smiled and came over to us with an empty food tray.
'Um Travis you know there's nothing on that plate right?' Nico asked.
All Travis did was nod, he resisted the urge to touch Katie while she was asleep.
She was so peaceful.
I saw Connor and Annabeth coming in, Connor was trying to grab Annabeths hand, but she kept slapping it away.
She sat opposite me, and Connor-no surprise- sat next to her.
I was glad Percy held my hand.
'Ow!' Percy exclaimed, glaring at his cousin. 'Thalia what was that for?' He asked.
Thalia had a confused expression on her face, but apparently due to her slap, Percy took his hand away from mine to rub his.
Jason came in with an exhausted Piper, she was yawning and her eyes were almost closed.
'Hey everyone.' Jason said.
'Hey Jason.' Piper said.
Everyone who was awake at the table chuckled.
Jason sat down and let Piper sit on his lap, but she fell asleep almost immediately.
Only Grover and Juniper were missing.
'Where are Grover and Juniper?' I asked.
'They're both outside admiring nature.' Jason said.
I heard an inaudiable mumble from Connor, but it must have been bad, because Annabeth slapped his arm.
'So why is Piper tired?' Nico asked.
Jason was about to answer, but was interrupted by his sister.
'Aren't you more worried about me?' Thalia asked.
'Are you tired Thalia?' Nico asked.
'A little.' She replied leaning into him.
'So.' I saw nico mouth.
'Well P.E. was tiring...' Jason started.
'Wait you do P.E. together?' Travis asked.
'Travis you're in the same lesson.' Jason countered.
'Could someone else not have said it?' He asked, I didn't know if it was rhetorical or not.
No-one answered him.
'Gwen?' Percy started.
'Yes?' I replied.
'I have to tell you something.' He said and he took me to a part of the cafateria, where no-one would see or hear us.
Once he told me what I had to say, he left the cafateria and me, but he left me forever.
I walked back to the cafateria table and cried.
When I looked up , because no-one was comforting me, they had all left, I hadn't notice them leave it, they probably left it when Percy told me what he said.
Rachel came over to me.
'I did tell you Gwen, it hurts when your hearts crushed.'
'Wait, no-one noticed you were back from Ecuador before.' I noticed.
'That's because everyone was in love before.'
'Who's was Percy in love with?' I asked.
'He was torn between you and some other girl.' Rachel said.
'Who, Rachel?' I asked.
'He was torn between the two of you the whole time since he broke up with me.' She informed me. 'But he was torn between three of us when he was going out with me.' She said.
'You me and this other girl, who I'm begining to dislike.' I said.
'Yes'
'Don't you feel crushed?'
'No , I just take commitment seriously. He has made a big mistake.' I felt weird saying this. 'Wait. Being around you is making me say this stuff.' I identified, so I moved away and went to class, returning to my origonal self.
I had Maths, ugh. I hate Maths.
I'm good at it, I just don't like it.
We had a test, I didn't bother revising, I came up with the idea that if I didn't revise my grades would go down, but the plan doesn't seem to be working, but I don't give up easy, I want to slip my grades slowly otherwise my teacher will think I can't be bothered, why can't I stop being bothered, well I lied and told him I loved Maths.
Why did you do that Gwen? That was the question I always heard in my head. Well the reason was I was so good and I didn't want to dissapoint him.
I know I hate maths that's why this explanation is longer than any other subjects.
On to Science, something I'm good at and I like it, today we had to do the screaming jelly baby experiment, its so fun, but dangerous, I killed twelve jelly babies before the test tube exploded, everyone else did six and stopped there, several people cracked their test tubes, once we finished we each had one from the bag that hadn't been used. I got detention for breaking a test tube.
Stupid detention reason if you ask me.
Once we had finished the experiment we had to write a two page report on our test, I finished it fifty-nine seconds before the bell rang.
I had to give the detention slip to the office before going back, as I entered the science hallway, I saw Annabeth and Percy.
They were both laughing.
Annabeth was leaning on a locker playing with a strand of hair acting all girly. I stood there just watching him, my heart still hurt.
Many people rushed past them, then past me, nobody said. 'Hey aren't you Percys boyfriend, isn't he cheating on you with that girl.' Or. 'Wait weren't you Percys boyfriend, I'm sorry about that.' Sorry wouldn't heal my heart, but it would feel nice to hear a sorry.
Percy leaned closer to her and whispered something in her ear, when he pulled away she giggled.
I saw the people who were always at the table Percy sat at.
'Hey guys.' I called. 'Guys?' I asked as everyone, but Connor walked past. 'What do you want Connor?' I asked.
'I wanted to know if you um...want to...uh...go on a...d-d-date... You know. With me.' He said the last two words quickly.
'Oh, sorry Connor, but I have detention.' I said, hoping to get rid of him.
'Oh okay, well I'll meet you in the room.' He said.
I wanted to say he was going in the wrong room, on top of that I'd be lying, I'd probably end up with him anyway, I guess there was no point fighting it.
Just before I took anothert step, I saw them kiss.
Percy.
Annabeth.
Kiss.
He leaned into her and kissed her on the lips, but it want a peck, because she kissed back.
My best friend, as a girl, now betraying me, kissing my ex.
The other person, the other girl, the one I said I disliked, I didn't like her at all, I didn't hate her because that's such a strong level of dislikeness, but if it wasn't, hate would be the word to use.
They kissed for about two minutes, then they left. I hid in the shadows.
As they passed me, I glared at them but I didn't think they saw.
Once I went in the room, I sat next to Connor.
'Connor, I promise to go on a date with you, a week today, if you leave me alone and show no signs of affection towards me, or if you don't talk about me, and I will ask people and I will know if they lie.' I threatened him.
He looked scared so I think it worked.
Please give me any ideas for the next chapter, who's POV should it be in. You can pick anyone who you've heard in the story.
Should I add Leo and my OC Carmen, tell me what you think.
FranAdams: I know how much you love this story, so if you want to add a character, even if its an OC. If it is an OC please tell me as much as you can about them. BTW, I'm not a girl.
