Annabeth's P.O.V
"I think that this is going to be a start of a beautiful friendship..." I heard Kate say.
"I think so too, in fact, I know so. Kate seems like an amazing person and if she is that amazing and she hangs out with you girls. Then I'm pretty sure you are just as amazing." I tell all of them while smiling
I was sure that if I didn't intrigue them before, I do now. A tall girl about Kate's height introduces herself to me; she has striking blue eyes that are both dark and light at the same time, she also has long blonde hair, like mine but it's straighter and not so curly.
"Well, if Kate likes you then I like you too. Hey Annabeth, pleased to meet you. I'm Sarah Walker." the girl says while shaking my hand.
Why do I feel like I'm going to shake a lot of people's hands today? If not that then I'm going to be hugged, I'm not complaining though especially if Seaweed Brain is the one hugging me. He is hot all the time. Annabeth, focus now is not the time to zone out.
"Hi Sarah, I'm looking forward to getting to know you better. All of you girls too." I say while shaking Sarah's hand back.
"Kate doesn't warm up to a lot of people, so you're quite lucky, I'm Jenny O'Malley," she says while shaking my hand. She has strawberry blonde hair and brown eyes.
"Hey Jenny, well I think that I made a good first impression towards Kate," I tell them
"And by first impressions, she means me stopping in the middle of the corridor and her slamming straight into me which resulted in us dropping all of our books," Kate says bursting into laughter
"That was your fault like you told me you had decided to stop in the middle. But then again, I was so busy looking for my locker that I didn't see that there was someone in front of me." I say while laughing
"Did that actually happen, I'm surprised Kate's training didn't kick in and smack you for dropping her things. Hey, I'm Haley Anderson." she has dark brown almost black hair and hazel eyes.
"Yep it actually happened, but I wouldn't have hurt her," Kate says
"Besides if she did, I would have fought back. Wait you are trained?" I asked Kate.
"We all are, well all of the girls that are. The boys did other things as well. We're trained in skilled hand to hand combat." Sarah tells me
"That's amazing, so if anything had to happen, you'd be able to defend yourselves. That's an excellent thing because not many girls think to train." I say quite astonished at them
Just as Haley was going to speak up, two more girls were walking towards us. Once they joined the little circle that we had formed, they looked at me and looked away before they did a double take and started staring at me. It's like they know me and they were shocked to see that I was here. I wonder why. They both turned to each other and shared a look while smiling and turned back to face me.
The girl with long Ombre brown and caramel hair and brown eyes introduced herself to me first.
"Hi, I'm Ally Dawson, pleased to meet you. I know this might be weird and sound rude but I'm just going ask is your name Annabeth?" she asks me
"Nice to meet you Ally, yes my name is Annabeth. How did you know that and why were you asking?" I asked quickly. My senses were immediately on high alert. The other girls were looking a bit confused at Ally and the other girl now.
She turns to the other girl, and they both gave each other knowing looks and started grinning like maniacs. Gods, please do not let these people be monsters. I don't want to deal with them at this moment.
"Hi Annabeth, I'm Lanie Parish, pleased to meet you finally." says the other girl who has brown hair and brown eyes.
"Nice to meet you too, wait how do you know me? I ask again, but before I could say anything, a group boys interrupted us.
Damn, I wanted to know, how they knew me. Unless... Did Percy show them pictures of me? Oh, Gods, Annabeth once again pay attention to what they're saying. Great now I'm talking to myself.
There were three of them, and they are all very tall, muscular, handsome looking boys. One had blonde that was a bit long and styled to the side hair and brown eyes. The next had medium brown hair that was short but not too short that was left down and not gelled up with bright blue eyes that looked like they were always shining. The last guy had brown hair, that was short at the sides and long at the top, and it was spiked up, he also has the lightest blue eyes I've ever seen.
They each went and stood behind the girls, which I'm guessing are their girlfriends, judging by the kisses that they gave. The guy with medium brown hair and blue eyes goes to stand behind Kate who tilted her head up, to look at him and he gave her a quick peck on her lips. I was just going to say that I guess that was Kate's boyfriend. The guy with blonde hair and brown eyes went and stood by Ally and gave her a kiss on the cheek before he greeted her and the final guy with brown hair and light blue eyes went to Jenny and kissed her on her forehead.
They finally noticed me standing there, and Kate's boyfriend asked: "So who is this lovely lady that is standing here in front of us, that we've never seen before, I think?"
"Hey I'm Annabeth Chase, and I'm new to Goode High. I recently moved here from San Francisco to finish my senior year," I tell them
"Pleasure to meet you Annabeth, Richard Castle at your service, but you can call me Rick." He shakes my hand. Before wrapping his arms around Kate's waist.
"I'm Austin Moon, and you do kinda look familiar." says the boy with blonde hair before shaking my hand also while holding Ally's hand with his free hand and then kissing her after greeting me.
"Hi Austin, I get that a lot, when you do figure out, who I am let me know," I said while grinning.
"Yeah, she does look very familiar, although I can't remember from where. I'm Kevin Ryan." He shakes my hand then wraps his other around Jenny's shoulders.
"Nice to meet you guys. I don't know, how you do know me, but when you have figured it, let me know." I said
These couples are like cuteness overload. Damn you, Seaweed Brain, I sound like one of Aphrodite's children right now.
A familiar scent of the ocean catches my attention. That's Percy but where is he? I snapped out of my thoughts remembering that I need to ask Ally and Lanie, how they knew my name.
"Where are the other boys?" Kate asked
"Oh, they went to see Coach Johnson about something," Lanie said, I could tell that she and Ally were hiding something.
"Ally, how did you and Lanie know my name?" I asked before looking over their shoulders. Trying to see if I could find Percy. They had probably thought that I seemed mad.
"Well, Annabeth, we know your name because..." she doesn't get to finish her sentence because they had stopped talking when they had seen the look on my face.
I started smiling because I had finally spotted Percy walking behind two other guys who were talking animatedly. It was like he was trying to hide, but then three random girls went up to them, and you could see that those girls were flirting with and the one pulled Percy into everyone's view. All three boys looked uncomfortable. I guessed my expression turned into a weird looking jealous one because I noticed everyone had stopped talking to each other and looked to see what had caught my attention.
"OMG is that Percy?" said Haley.
"I did not think that he was going to come back," said Rick
"We have missed him a lot," said Jenny
"Hey guys, why does Annabeth look like that," asked Austin out of the blue before Ally slaps him on his arm.
"Ouch!, Al's what did ya do that for?" he exclaims
"Hush Aus, you'll see why soon," she tells him softly
"Guy's you're going to want to see this," says Lanie
I listened to what they were saying, but I ignored them, and I did not move. I was contemplating whether I should go up or just stay here.
It looks like I've made up my mind...
Percy's P.O.V
I pulled Chuck and Javi out of everyone's view and started brainstorming a plan "Okay, guys what do you think that we can do to surprise them," I asked
"Well, you can just walk straight to them because I think they'll be shocked either way," Chuck said.
"That is true," I say while agreeing with Chuck and contemplating whether I should even do something big. I rather not, it's better to try and remain as low-key as possible.
"You could walk behind us bro, and slouch a bit when you do so that they won't see you straight away," Javi says
"Javi you're a genius!" Chuck exclaims
"That will work though, well done Javi," I say impressed at the idea
"Thanks, guys," he says while grinning
"Let's get this over with, go walk in front of me, and I'll hide behind. Also, act like you two are having an interesting conversation." I told them
Hope no one spots me. Wait... There's that smell again, is Annabeth here or nearby or wearing her baseball cap and pretending to be invisible? Okay, I'm going to look around and see if I could spot her.
Chuck and Javi started talking, and I was not even paying attention to what they are saying because I was trying to see where Annabeth is. Suddenly Chuck and Javi stopped, and I bumped into them. I saw that they were stopped by the three most annoying mortal girls ever, and there is more in that little squad of theirs, but these are by far the worst. I don't even want to describe them to you, they look so fake and wear a lot of makeup and the least amount of decent looking clothes. Unlike my Wise Girl.
Their names are Kira Josephs, Cassandra Williams, Michelle Lincoln. They are always flirting with all the boys that are hot. And it makes the girls both annoyed and jealous. They're always after us especially me, because they think I'm single, even though I had told them, that I have a girlfriend and would never in my life date them. Chuck and Javi started to look uncomfortable, but Cassandra managed to spot me, and she said "Percy!" grabbed my arm and pulled me out from behind them. She didn't remove her arm, something that annoyed me.
"Cassandra, leave me alone, and stop touching my arm," I told her feeling annoyed and uncomfortable with her presence and then removing her hand from mine.
"Percy, baby I missed you. Where have you been?" Cassandra asked while batting her eyelashes. I felt like I just threw up a little in my mouth.
"I'm not your baby nor will I ever be your boyfriend," I tell her
"Why don't you three and your little groupies leave us all alone," Javi says
"We don't want you to come near all of us anymore and if you keep pestering us. You're going to get hurt and in trouble." Chuck says
"You can't hurt us. Boys aren't supposed to hurt girls" annoyance #1 Kira tells me.
"Nor will we get into trouble." Annoyance #2 Michelle states
"My daddy is a wealthy man he won't let anything happen to us." Annoyance #3 Cassandra says
"I know people stronger than your "Daddy". He can't buy, his way out of everything." I said in a gruff voice
"Oh and us boys won't hurt you, our girlfriends on the other hand..." Javi trails off
"They can hurt you, and we won't stop them." Chuck finishes
There's her scent again. Annabeth where are you?
The Annoyances Huff in irritation and defeat. They sounded like horses.
"Mark my words we will find a way to get you," Annoyance #3 says
"And no one will stop us" Annoyance #1 finishes.
"Come on ladies lets regroup and think of something." Annoyance #2 tells them.
"Oh, you can think? We didn't know that." I hear Chuck mutter to Javi and me
We try to conceal our laughter by fake coughing, but we failed miserably.
"Bye, ladies we have better things to do that we can waste our time on," Javi tells them
"Wayyyy better things. Don't come near us again." I tell the girls
They huff once again and start to walk off. Their, high heeled shoes made a click clack sound as they left. They seriously do sound like horses.
"Is it just me or do they sound like horses when they do that," I tell Chuck and Javi who immediately burst into laughter.
"Yep, they do actually, sound like that." Says Chuck still laughing
I opened my mouth to reply when I heard a wolf whistle that caught my attention, which came from where my friends were standing. I turned to look at who had managed to catch my attention.
...And there's my Wise Girl.
Back to Annabeth's P.O.V
I stepped away from the lockers and where everyone else is standing and walked to stand in the middle of the corridor, where I had a clear view of Percy and his two friends. I saw those girls that were flirting with them walk away and the boys with triumphant looks on their faces before they had burst into laughter. That's right, you girls better leave and not flirt with them.
I let out a loud wolf whistle, something that Percy taught me how to do properly. And I had finally caught his attention because he turned around slowly looking confused before he spotted me and broke out into a huge grin that I love. Which makes me smile back at him.
"Wise Girl!" he shouted excitedly before breaking into a sprint straight towards me. He stumbled a bit and slowed down, but I rush the rest of the way to meet him halfway.
"Seaweed Brain!" I exclaimed just as excitedly jumping into his open arms, where I wrapped my legs around his waist and locked my arms around his neck.
"I've missed you so much 'Beth," Percy whispers into my ear, pulling me closer and holding on tightly.
"I've missed you too Perce. So, so much." I whisper back into his ear.
He starts setting me down gently and then looked over my shoulder to his friends. I turned in his arms to look at them too noticing that the two boys that were with Percy had joined them and were standing by their girlfriends. All of them besides Ally, Lanie and those two boys who were grinning and looking excited, had shocked, confused and amused looks on their faces. Everyone else in the corridor focused their attention on us too.
I turned back to face Percy and immediately stepped out of his arms. He seemed confused at first but before he could react. I grabbed his arm and flipped him over my shoulder. He hit the ground with a thud and immediately people around us started whispering after the initial shock. All his friends rushed towards us and surrounded Percy and me.
"Never going to make it easy for me ain't that right Annabeth?" while extending his hand for me to help him up.
"Damn, right I won't Percy," I tell him while grasping his hand and pulling him up. "Hi," I say softly.
"Hi back, what are you doing here? Thought you were back in San Francisco" he asks excitedly
"Why do not want me here? Cause I can gladly leave and go back to camp if you want. I'm sure Leo can keep me company." I tell him with a mischievous look on my face.
"Wha...Go to Camp without me...Leo? No, No, No. " Percy rambles trying to figure out what to say and do.
Well, the best way to bring him out his thoughts was to kiss him. So I did so... I grabbed the lapels of his jackets pulled him towards me and kissed him. He was shocked and did not do anything at first but eventually, his Seaweed Brain caught up and he started kissing me back, wrapping his arms around my waist just above my...
One thing I would never get tired of, kissing Percy is one of my favourite pass times. Our kiss was so passionate, yet decent and composed and not all over the place, instantly losing ourselves in this moment. Once again I felt like a daughter of Aphrodite. I inwardly sighed in relief, being back in his arms. The sound of clapping and cheering pulled us out of our little moment. Percy and I pulled back from kissing slowly and he rested his forehead on mine breathing in. It takes us very long to run out of breath when we kiss. Oxygen, when we're kissing, is not a problem at all.
I stepped back again from him and looked at his friends. All of them looked really excited. Percy came and stood next to me and put his arm my shoulder, pulling me as close to him as he could as well as kissing the top of my head. I reached up and intertwined my fingers with his that was hanging on my shoulder, wrapping my other arm around his waist.
I kiss our intertwined hands, looked up at him, the both of us staring into each other's eyes. The sound of someone clearing their throat broke our gaze on each other. I looked at his friends, ready to start explaining and the thought that ran through my mind, knowing that it will cross Percy's also.
We're back together, and I'm going to be sleeping peacefully with, barely any nightmares from now on with the person I love...
