oh hehe...it's almost a month since I last updated...
heh...whoopsie...?
AGH PLEASE DONT KILL ME JUST...JUST READ IT!
Annabeth
"And then I just told made my parents sign all of those notes for permission to stay in the dorms. It turns out there are heaps of notes to fill in, you know-about medical details stuff, health safety thingies, not being responsible if we happen to get raped-"
Hm. A little too much detail there.
"Rachel, stop. We get it."
Rachel shrugged. "Hey, its not like I wrote it." Annabeth smiled and rolled her eyes.
They started walking through the doors of the high school. The four of them, walking in their own styles of fashion (okay that sounded weird but anways) Rachel, with her messy red ponytail in her colourful and bright clothing, with a satchel covered with some paint splotches here and there. Reyna in her usual purple attire, her hair plaited neatly-perfectly-down her back. Her appearance showing regal elegance. Then Piper, with her messy side fish braid. She walked beside Reyna in her snowboarding jacket and tattered jeans. She was the complete opposite of Reyna, who stood as a perfectionist while she carried a lot of imperfections-yet she was just as pretty. Maybe even prettier. One thing for sure, a lot of boys were drooling over her as they passed by, much to Piper's own disgust.
Then there was her. Tagging behind the others, the one remembered as the nerdy blonde-Annabeth Chase. She didn't care about the way she looked, yet she still felt a little too simple-like she didn't have any personality at all. While the others sported as the artsy one, the leading one, the kind one, the shy one, the tough one. Actually she did have a name-the smart one. But what was smart compared to the other qualities her friends had.
So naturally, she wore casual, plain clothes with her hair in a side ponytail-like always. Wow...she really had to start thinking about working on her appearance.
"Sooo...who do you want to share your place with?" Reyna when they reached the lockers. She took out two fat textbooks and shoved them into her bag. Apparently they didn't fit, so she tried stuffing them inside until it did. Poor bag. "Apparently the maximum is eight students per dorm."
"Whoa," said Piper as she searched for something in her satchel. "That's a lot of people. Dang it I forgot my keys again." Then she fished out a hair pin and tried to pick the lock.
Annabeth nodded. "You got that right, about the dorms I mean-two people sharing a room, meaning there are four rooms. And apparently we can't change for the rest of the year so I don't want to have any fights going on around here. It'll just be hell being in the same place everyday with a person you hate."
Rachel hummed in agreement. "You sure wouldn't want that happening."
Ah, imagine the joys of being placed with a girly, annoying cheerleader for what basically is eternity, no offence Piper. You know we didn't mean you.
"Wouldn't want what happening?"
Piper pulled back. "HOLY MOTHER OF-"
Hazel covered her ears. Always the sensible one.
"-JE-JELLY!" Piper quickly corrected herself as a teacher passed by giving her a look. "I said jelly."
"Hazel what in the name of Hades are you doing here?!" Rachel screeched, making Annabeth cringe slightly.
Hazel beamed. "I came back! Remember I said I was coming in a few weeks time and it's been a few weeks time, so here I am!"
"Welcome back, Hazey!" someone hollered from behind.
"Hazey? Wow Valdez, just wow."
"How was Australia?" Leo said patting her head.
"New Zealand."
"Same thing." (A/N No it isn't.)
"It was good."
"So where's the souvenirs?"
"What did you see?"
"Do you buy something for me?"
"Did you buy anything for me?"
Hazel rolled her eyes. "I missed you guys too."
"Aww, we missed you heaps!" said Annabeth giving her a hug.
"GROUP HUG!" Leo yelled.
And that resulted in a lot of people squishing Hazel. Most of them were friends, but some were just random students who liked joining group hugs.
"Guys-can't-breathe!" Hazel gasped. "Dying-here-help-get-off-now!"
"Oh right, sorry Hazey."
"So what's new?"
"Well we're going to move into our dorms soon, I have no idea when but I'm pretty sure it'll be soon. Piper joined the cheerleading team-yeah shocking right? OW! THAT HURT LIKE HELL-jeez, don't ever do that again Beauty Queen.
"Um, what else-eh-oh yeah, Reyna and I have started dating-OW! OKAY OKAY I WAS JUST JOKING! YOU CHICKS PUNCH HARD-GODS, why am I friends with you?
"Er-um, I'm in the fix-it club, or something. Wow I even forgot my own club's name. This is bad. And Reyna is thinking of joining the S.R.C. and Rachel-what is Rachel doing...oh yeah she has decided to make up a petition for a fortune telling club-or something like that. Oh and she's in the art club-no surprise there...-"
"So anything else?"
Rachel cleared her throat. "Wellll...Piper has a boy-"
"SHUT UP" Annabeth smirked at her reaction and Hazel looked at her with curiosity.
Leo's eyes widened. "OMG. Piper has a boyfriend?! Really? Well that is surprising-"
"WHAT?"
"I said that was...inspriring. Yeah! Inspiring us to date." Piper glared at him, but he ignored her. "So who is it? Is it that weird lanky guy who was sitting next to you in class yesterday? Wow never knew you had the hots for him. Or Connor Stoll? I heard you guys are getting steamy in class, hey. Or maybe one of those jocks, maybe Will Solace? I bet you have make out sessions after school near the gym. I bet-"
Piper punched him in the stomach. Hard. Nothing else to say.
"What's his name?" Hazel asked eyeing Leo carefully as he held his stomach and groaned.
"I don't have a fudging boyfriend,"
"Fudging? Really?"
"OKAY GUYS WHATEVER, WHO CARES ABOUT BEAUTY QUEEN'S LOVE LIFE!"
"Yeah who cares about my love life!" Piper said crossing her arms.
Hazel gasped. "So you admit you have one?"
"No! I just-ARGHH!" Piper yelled in frustration.
"Piper and Jason sittin' in a tree!" Rachel cooed.
"..."
"That's it. They're just sitting." Piper glared at Rachel. "What? It's true!"
Hazel gasped again. "His name is Jason?"
"JASON?! So HE'S-but-I-huh?" Leo yelled incredulously.
"I heard ma name,"
Piper whipped around.
Reyna nodded. "Yes, we were talking about you. You and-"
"Football!" Piper cried. She leaned on her locker trying to act casual. "Uh I mean-You and football, you know...'cause you're a jock and everything..."
"Oh this way too cliché," Leo made clicking noise with his tongue. "The jock and the cheerleader always-"
"HEYO!"
Leo yelped as a boy jumped into our little group.
"Hey Wise Girl!" he said. Annabeth smirked.
"Seaweed Brain,"
"Owl Head,"
"Fish Face."
"Blondie."
"Dummy."
"Annie!"
"Perseus!"
"BETHIE!"
"Nemo."
She and Percy had a staring competition for a minute. His sea-green eyes bore into hers. She narrowed her eyes slightly and he did the same. Then she blinked.
"HAH! YOU BLINKED! I WIN!" He cried triumphantly.
Annabeth rolled her eyes but a smile was tugging on her lips.
Yes! She finally didn't have to be a loner in classes now! Nowadays, they sat together in every single lesson. He was even nicer and friendlier than she thought he would be. I mean, wasn't he supposed to be that obnoxious, self-absorbed, flirtatious, egotistical, stupid, annoying, hot jock? Wow, for once in her life she had been wrong.
She liked the way his eyes twinkled when he spoke. He was good looking-she had to admit, but she was pretty sure he was just her friend.
Just a friend! A friend. Only a friend.
He was so nice to have forgiven her, after he was the victim of two of her temper tantrums. Seriously, she just lost it sometimes.
Oh lookie here-she found another thing to add to her label. The short-tempered, violent, dull, smart blonde one.
Man, her life was so sad. (A/N don't say that! you're life is awesome...well, it will get better...hopefully.)
"Huh, you're already giving each other nicknames," Reyna smirked. Then she turned to Piper and Jason. "What about you guys?"
Jason, being the oblivious guy he is, started spilling everything. "Oh well Piper calls me-"
"Jason shut up."
"What?" he asks looking at Piper. "She asked! The polite thing to do was answer!" A gentleman, huh? Annabeth got a good look of him.
She recalled the times she heard some girls talking about him. Talking about his "sexy body" and "dreamy eyes". Was it just her, or did that just sound super creepy.
Annabeth looked over at him. Hm, he did look fit-and he was definitely hot but just not her type. And his "mesmerizing eyes"? They were electric blue, yeah they were nice. But Percy's were sea-green...she did not just compare them.
There was also something familiar of those eyes. She was pretty sure she had seen them before but she just couldn't remember who-
"-Rachel, Annabeth, Hazel, Piper and I are going to share a dorm." Reyna was saying. "What about you guys,"
"Well...we could always share with you girls," Percy says casually.
"HAHA no. The school is really paranoid about those things and they really don't want any of us to get pregnant or anything." Reyna said. "You know cuz they think we might start-"
Hazel immediately covered her ears. "-doing stuff" Reyna finished carefully. Percy laughs and casually puts his arm around her. Annabeth froze, and he noticed what he had done and quickly pulled away.
"Aww..." Piper cooed. "Percabeth!"
Everyone looked at her weirdly. Piper frowned. "I did not just say that.
"Percabeth?" Leo says. "WHAT THE HELL is PERCABETH? That's not even a name...I think."
Piper frowned again. "Couple name. Percy plus Annabeth. Annercy sounds horrible. So Perc-abeth." she said the words slowly as if she were talking to some clueless kids-maybe she was. "PERCABETH."
*face palm*
Piper sees my expression. "Oh don't worry they do it to everyone, even people who are just friends."
"Who? Who does it?"
"Uh-WHO ELSE? Anyways, they have heaps of weird names like Percabeth, Frazel, Leyna, Jasper..."
"Jasper?"
"Me and Jason."
"Jason and I,"
"You knew what I meant Annabeth."
"Leyna? L-leyna?! As in Leo and-and-"
"YUP HONEY WE HAVE A COUPLE NAME!"
"..."
"Frazel isn't what I think it is...is it?"
"LOL FRAZEL."
"Be quiet."
"Percabeth. Percabeth? Seriously that is a horrible name! PERCABETH...What the-"
"GUYS SHUT UP!" Piper screamed. Remember they were still in the hallway near the lockers. People were looking over at them weirdly-but Piper doesn't give a shiz. (A/N and I see that Annabeth is not trying to swear)
"Wait wait!" Leo says putting his hand up. He looked like a small kid asking the teacher to go to the bathroom. "Before you say anything else-" Everyone waits in silence. Leo looks dead serious. She had never seen him so concentrated before.
Then he broke into a smile.
"PIPER AND JASON SITTIN' IN A TREE
"K-I-MWAH-MWAH-I-N-G"
Oh gods.
"FIRST COMES LOVE THEN COMES MARRIAGE, THEN COMES A BABY IN A GOLDEN CARRIAGE
"SUCKIN HIS THUMB, WETTIN' HIS PANTS
"DOIN THE NAKED BABY DANCE
"AND THAT'S NOT ALL, THAT'S NOT ALL-DADDY'S IS DRINKING ALCHOL-"
"SHUT THE (hey look! this much more entertaining to see than looking at a rude word!) UP OR ELSE I WILL KILL YOU!" Piper yells. She's blushing. Jason looks red too. Rachel is looking at them like OOoOoOoOh!
A few random bloggers come up and start taking pictures. Annabeth caught some them cooing "Aww, Jasper!"
"Valdez..." she growls. "I swear I will rip your limbs off and feed you body to the wolves-"
And then the bell rings.
"SAVED BY THE BELL!" he hollers and runs away. Reyna is following behind muttering something about 'Leyna' and how strange she finds it that they look at them like a couple. Hazel tags along with Piper as she explains their new classes together. Rachel is sprinting down the hall to get to her next art class. Jason has disappeared-
"Come one Owl Head," Percy says smiling. "Let's go before those girls come for Percabeth photos."
Annabeth laughs. "What's next? Liper? Traitie?"
"Traitie?"
"Oh you know Katie and Travis from our Maths class."
"I thought they hated each other."
"Exactly."
DON'TMINDMEI'MJUSTANAWESOMELINEBREAKERDOINGWHATLIN EBREAKERSDO
"Annabeth!" somebody says in a piercing whisper.
"Hmm?" she replied absently as she scribbled down some notes about how "fire can be extinguished when a container is placed over the top of it-this happens because fire needs oxygen to spread and placing the container on top closes it's air sup-"
"What does this mean?"
She looked up and Percy pointed to a word in the text book.
"Aluminosilicates." she read out. "A word for minerals, oxygen-stuff like that."
"Oh, okay."
Annabeth went back. "-ply. Thus making the fire burn out comple-"
"Annabeth what does this say?" She looked over again.
"Sternocleidoimastoid."
"What does it mean?" She gave Percy a look.
"It's a muscle around your neck."
"Oh, okay."
She sighs and goes back. "-tely." Next paragraph. "When adding liquids to a naked flame, the fire will immedia-"
"Annabeth?"
She sighed. "What Percy?"
"What's the date?"
She gives him a look.
"I was just joking!"
"Good."
''-tely spread." She pushed back a loose curl and stopped as she thought about what else she should write.
Or maybe she had done enough. She had written three pages worth of science notes...nah, you can never have too many science notes.
She could feel somebody looking-staring-at her, she turned around and saw Percy. "Um, do you need anything, Seaweed Brain?"
"Hmm?" he said absently. Then his eyes widened. "Oh, n-no! I was just-um what did you write about for minerals?"
She glanced over at his page. "Percy you haven't written anything."
"Who said you need to write to learn anything?"
"Me."
"Aw, but science class is soooo boring. I hate being in it. Can you help me?" he whined.
"What do you need help with? Actually no, why don't you copy what's on the whiteboard. Okay?" she said calmly. Annabeth flicked through her pages, then stopped when she realised that Percy still hadn't written anything.
Percy stared blankly at the white board. He furrowed his brows as if trying to make out the words. As if they all looked jumbled around, and he couldn't understand...
"Percy are you dyslexic?"
He looked taken back. "W-what?" She looked into his eyes, he looked nervous.
"Are you dyslexic?" He hesitated or a while, then he nodded slowly.
"But I'm not stupid," he mumbled. "I just can't see things properly."
"Just because you have dyslexia doesn't mean you're stupid. You just look at things differently," she said softly. "You know, I have ADHD."
He looked up. "You do?"
"Yeah, and I'm just saying even the best students like me have flaws-and that just shows that we take time getting somewhere-sometimes we do end up getting there." she gave him a small smile "And I promise not to tell, you're secret is safe with me."
Percy studies her for a moment, then he grins. "Thanks,"
She returns his smile warmly and closes her book. "Well the bell's going to ring any minute so we-"
RINGADINGDING
"Never mind."
She went to her locker again and got out her art notebook and English binder. Percy waited for her.
"Hey, can I sit with you guys-I mean you've already sat with me once so I thought maybe I could get away from the jock table and-"
"Yeah sure!"
"Okay thanks,"
"Let's go I'm starving."
Annabeth was in a good mood, must've shown in her smile as she walked down the corridor with Percy. Then her hands fell on her pocket.
She suddenly frowned and patted her pocket once more. "Oh shivers." She looked in her bag and in her jacket.
"What's wrong." Percy asked frowning as she sat down on the floor and took every single thing out.
"I can't find my fudging money for lunch," she moaned. This was just great. The tough, nerdy blonde Annabeth Chase lost her lunch money.
"Oh I can give you some of my money, I earned heaps of cash yesterday."
Annabeth smiled. "Thanks, Perce. I promise to pay you back."
"No prob." They started walking again to the cafeteria.
"This is so cliché,"
"Yeah but I guess the author of this fanfic wanted us to show that we are bonding with each other."
"Yeah."
"..."
"Hey what's a fanfic."
"Agh, forget it." she muttered. "Oh hey look! There they are."
"Let's get food first."
"Right."
Annabeth bought a salad with some water and put it onto her tray then they walked over to the table.
Rachel was sitting down with a scarf wrapped around her head, muttering or chanting some odd words from what looked like a spell book. Reyna was sitting opposite her, on her iphone. Leo sat next to her peering over at what she was playing, asking her what she was playing, asking if he could play what she as playing. Hazel sat next to Leo with Frank on her other side. Piper sat next to Rachel and Jason was next to her. They were looking over a play book of some sort.
"Hey why all of a sudden are the boys are sitting here?" Rachel said stopping in the middle of her chant. Piper shrugged.
"Jason said he wanted to sit next to me."
"I came over because I saw Jason, and I figured it was Men sit at Ladies' table day."
"I came to say hi to Hazel."
"Annabeth asked me."
"You asked me."
"No you asked me!"
"No-"
"Who cares just sit and eat!" Reyna yelled.
It was pretty quiet at the table. Maybe it was just awkward because Jason and Piper weren't a couple-yet they would be in each other's eyes and all, and look away blushing.
"Heh heh, Jasper...Percabeth..." Leo snickered.
"Seriously guys, Percabeth? What the hell."
"I kinda like the name Jasper."
"Leyna beats all of your names biatches"
"Shut up."
"Frazel sounds weird."
"I know right?"
"Like FRAZEL, I don't know it just sounds funny."
"Not as funny as PERCABETH! It sounds so...strange."
"Guys," Piper said. "We don't need to go through this again."
"Yeah," Rachel said. "Actually I think I'm saying that because I don't have a couple name."
"Actually you do. It's with Percy-Perachel."
"That sounds horrible."
"Perachel. Or Prachel?"
"Same thing."
"Why me and him?"
"Because you guys are 'cute together.' I don't know the shit that goes around in those heads."
Percy looked over at Rachel strangely, then he noticed a book near her tray.
"Hey whose reading this?!"
"That would be me."
"Oh my gods, I love this series."
"Really me too!"
"The main character is the best in the whole wide world."
"I know right!"
A passing girl took out her camera and snapped a shot. "Cute Perachel moment guys."
Rachel rolled her eyes and muttered something, then the two of them went back to talking about the series.
Reyna smirked at them and whispered to Annabeth "I think somebody's jea-lous"
"I'm no jealous!" she snapped.
"I was only kidding," Reyna said laughing lightly before telling Leo to stop doing something.
No. She wasn't jealous. Why should she be jealous? He wasn't even hers. No she was bit...envious(?) because Percy had meant to spend time with her. That sounded like a spoilt, attention-seeking girl.
Maybe she felt that way because he seemed so excited around Rachel. Talking to her like they had been friends forever. Maybe it hurt her because they looked so easy together-that sounds weird but you get what she meant. Maybe it hurt because it took several days to finally be friends with him, while it took Rachel just a second. Maybe it hurt because he looked as if he could tell Rachel anything-when he only meant to tell her his secrets.
Maybe she was envious, angry, frustrated, irritated, sad-but she wasn't jealous.
They weren't even together.
