Well, to be honest, I wasn't even expecting an early update. Yet here I am, with a new chapter. Interesting...
Okay, I really need to stop talking, and get going with this chapter~

"So Thals, how much do you like Goode so far?"
Thalia glanced at Annabeth, who was leaning against her locker with her arm crossed. "Not bad," she said as she continue to search for some loose change in her locker.
Annabeth raised her eyebrow. "No trouble at all so far?"
"Nope," Thalia said. "Well, unless you count forgetting were I put my money as trouble, of course."
Annabeth looked at her best friend with an eyebrow raised. She took a peek on Thalia's locker and mentally face palmed. "Thals, you're amazing," Annabeth said sarcastically. "It's only your first day at school, and your locker is a wrecked. Seriously, what did you do? Bomb the thing?"
Thalia rolled her eyes. "You know I'm a lazy bum," she said. "This morning, I only dumped the whole thing to the locker." She looked at Annabeth and grinned sheepishly at her. "I think I might need to borrow your money to buy lunch today."
The blonde girl frowned. "No, I won't give you" Annabeth scolded. "Not after I saw you suck all the food from my mother's fridge last night."
Thalia pulled her 'puppy eye' look. "Please Annabeth?" She asked innocently.
Annabeth opened her mouth to answer. But somebody tapped her shoulder. She turned around to see a tall brunette, grinning at her. "Hey guys. What's up?"
"Grover!" Annabeth exclaimed. She threw her arms around the boy. When they broke apart, she asked, "What are you doing here?"
"Well," He said he said. He took a breath and did a hand gesture dramatically. "Ladies, you are looking at Goode newest student."
Annabeth's eyes widened. She turned to see Thalia, who was grinning at her. "You knew?" she asked at the raven headed girl in disbelief. "And you didn't tell me?"
She shrugged. "It won't be a surprise if I told you, right?" She answered.
Annabeth grinned. "So you guys planned this?"
"Yep," Grover replied.
"Oh my god! You guys are the best!" She hugged Grover and Thalia. "Thanks so much guys," she said. "It really made up my week."
"Yeah," Grover murmured. "I've heard so."
They broke apart. Annabeth looked at Grover quizzically. "How do you know?" She asked.
"Long story," Grover said. "And I can't really tell you right now. I got to meet my friend at the cafeteria."
Annabeth raised an eyebrow. "Who?" she asked curiously.
"Percy Jackson," Grover answered.
Annabeth mouth hung opened. She looked at Thalia. "I really need to check my ears," she muttered. "Something obviously wrong with my ears. It's not possible that I hear both Thalia and Grover knew Percy freakin' Jackson."
Grover glaced at Thalia confusedly. "Um, but we did say that."
"And you never mention him?" Annabeth asked.
"Well, that never really cross my mind," Grover said sheepishly. "So anyway, gotta go. See you at your table."
"Wait," Annabeth said. "One of my friend invited you?"
"Yeah," he said. "She's a red haired girl who really love arts."
"You mean Rachel?"
"Yeah. That's her."
"Wait," Thalia said, joining the conversation. "Who's Rachel?"
"One of my friend," Annabeth said. "You'll meet her real soon."
The raven shrugged. "Okay," Thalia said.
"And now, I'll be going," Grover said. "See you soon!"
"See you there!"
Grover smiled and waved. Then, he ran to the cafeteria.
Annabeth turned back to Thalia, who continues to search for her money. "Well, who knew this week would be very eventful," she mused.
"I know right?" Thalia said.
Annabeth chuckled. "Thanks for the surprise again Thals," she said, smiling at the Raven. "You're the best."
Thalia shrugged. "Sure," she replied. "So does that mean I can borrow your money?" she asked hopefully.
"No," Annabeth replied.
"Dammit," she said. "Please Annie?" She pouted, looking at Annabeth with pleading eyes. "Please?"
Annabeth sighed. "Fine," she said. "But don't call me Annie! You know I hate it!"
Thalia smirked at the blonde. "Whatever you say, Annie." As Thalia slammed her locker shut, Annabeth groaned. "Now come on," Thalia said. "I'm starving."
She grabbed Annabeth's arm and dragged her to the cafeteria. "I wonder if they have any hot dogs. I'm craving for one," Thalia muttered.
Annabeth sighed. Well, this is sucks.
"I can't do this."
"Why not?"
"Because, she's totally going to kill me!"
Grover rolled his eyes. "Oh come on Perce. I'm sure she won't."
"Uh G-man, you've never even seen her upset," Percy said. "And I have, bunch of times. As long as I remember, it was really nasty."
"But you still have to tell her anyway," Grover protested. "There's no escape."
"No!" Percy half yelled.
Grover, getting really impatient, gave Percy a look. "Don't make me drag you all the way there, Perce," he warned.
Percy gulped and sighed. "Oh fine," he said reluctantly. "I'll go now."
"Good," Grover nodded. "Good luck," he said, patting his friend's shoulder. He started to walk away. But Percy pulled his hoodie.
"Whoa, wait a minute," Percy said, getting really panic. "Where are you going?"
"Over there," Grover replied. He gesturing at Annabeth's lunch table.
Percy blinked. "Where?" he asked again in disbelief.
"Over there," Grover repeated his answer pointing at the table. "So, if you excuse me, I'll be going right now."
Grover started to walk away again. But Percy grabbed his arm again and yanked him. "You can't be serious," Percy said. "They're freaks!"
Grover gave Percy a look. "No, they're just... Different."
"Whatever," Percy said. "Since when do you know them anyway? How did you even know one of them? I was with you all day long."
"No you weren't," Grover replied. "On 2nd period, I had Biology while you had Spanish. Then, the teacher assigned one of them to be my lab partner. We chatted while doing our project. Then she invited me to sit at her table. I think her name was Rachel."
"And you said yes?"
"Well, she's very friendly," Grover said. "Beside, she said she's a friend of Annabeth. So yeah, I said yes."
Percy mouth hung opened. He just can't believe he was hearing that. "But what about me?"
"What about you?" Grover retorted.
Percy face palmed. "You're supposed to give me support!" Percy exclaimed.
"And I will give you," Grover reply calmly. "From right over there," he said, pointing at the table once more. "So good luck now," Grover said, grinning.
Percy, who was completely dumbfounded, watched his friend rushing to the table. When he finally came back to reality, he sighed and looked at his own lunch table.
Among all the jocks and cheerleaders, he spotted Tammi, talking with Ethan Nakamura. She looked very pretty today, Percy thought.
Well, not after you tell him the news,he reminded himself sourly.
He sighed and started to walk up to her. She noticed him going over to her. The blonde girl waved at him and winked at him. "Hey Percy," she said in a flirty way.
"Hey Tam," Percy greeted her coolly. "Can I talk with you for a sec?"
She smiled sweetly at him and shrugged. "Sure," she said.
They walked away from their table and Tammi started to talk about her plan at the mall. When they reach the edge of the room, Percy stopped Tammi from babbling. "Look Tam. I, um... I have to cancel the date to the mall today."
Tammi stopped babbling and gave Percy a look. "You what?"
Percy gulped and looked down. "I can't take you to the mall," he said. " I got detention for the rest of the week so-"
"You mean," Tammi said, cutting him off. "You're bailing on me?"
Percy gulped. He looked up to find Tammi, really upset. Her icy blue eyes staring daggers at him. "T-that's not really what I meant," he stuttered nervously. "I'm just suggesting if maybe we can do it some other time."
"No!" Tammi yelled.
Suddenly, the whole cafeteria fell silent. The boy could feel all eyes on them, completely interested in their argument.
Right at that time, Thalia and Annabeth just sat down on their table. "Hey guys, this is Thalia," she said, introducing the girl to her friends.
Thalia waved her hand at them. "Hey guys."
The other looked at her and smiled friendly. "Hey," they said in unison. But then, they turned their head back to the arguing couple.
Annabeth raised her eyebrow. "What's going on?" Annabeth asked.
"Mr. And Ms. Perfect are having a fight," Travis mused. "Didn't you hear Tammmi yelled?"
"Um, no."
Travis shrugged. "Something must be wrong with your ear," he said.
Annabeth snorted. "I knew something is wrong with my ears," she muttered. "Maybe I should clean it."
Travis looked at Annabeth in confusion. "Uh, okay," he said. Then he turned his attention back at Tammi and Percy. "Damn, I really wish I have a tape to record this. And probably post it on youtube."
"Tape?" Connor asked. He started to rummage through his bag. "You mean something like this?" he asked his twin brother with a mischievous look and holding a video tape.
"Sweet!" Travis exclaimed with a grin. "You're the best, man!"
"Now let's go," Connor said. "Before the argument ends." Both him and Travis stood up and approached the fighting couple and started taping their argument.
Katie watched them left. Then, she crossed her arms and huffed. "Idiots," Katie muttered.
Annabeth rolled her eyes. Katie obviously has a crush on one of them. Which one, Annabeth wasn't sure though.
She looked back at Percy, who was trying helplessly to calm Tammi down. "Well, who knew lunch going to be interesting."
"No kidding," Thalia agreed. "It completely made up my day. You know after seeing this thing." She spooned some of her 'chili' and eat it. "Ew, this is the worst thing I've ever eat. Why didn't you tell me the food was this bad?"
Annabeth smiled at her best friend sheepishly. "I forgot," she said.
"Man, I feel bad for him," Grover said. "I didn't know she's going to be this furious." He stood up. "I'm going over there."
"No," Annabeth said, pulling Grover back to his seat. "It's kind of a private business, don't you think?"
"Well, you do have a point," Grover muttered.
"No!" Tammi yelled again. "I don't want to do it any other day. I want to do it today!"
"But I can't," Percy said.
"That's it!" Tammi yelled frustratedly. "I'm dumping you."
Percy stared at Tammi in shock. "You what?"
"Oh Percy dear, did you not hear me?" Tammi asked sweetly. Percy shuddered and gulped. This is bad. "Let me say it again, slowly this time," Tammi leaned closer. "I'm. Breaking. Up. With. YOU," she hissed viciously to Percy ear.
Percy was dumbfounded for a moment. This can't be happening,he thought. "But-"
"No buts!"
With that she stormed out of the room.
Percy sighed. Well, that went well.
Well, so far Annabeth just found out about Grover, Percy got dumped by Tammi, and Thalia is still eating all the times.
