Chapter Ten

Percy's POV

I saw Annabeth come in. she looked like she wanted to come over and talk with me, but I being the idiot I am, just looked away. I saw red forming on her face-she must have been really mad.- Because there was nothing over here to be embarrassed about.

– – – – – – – –

A few minutes she came out of the girls dressing room with her hair tied back in a loose ponytail and in a all white two-piece. It wasn't as reveling as the bikinis that some of the other girls were wearing, but it looked perfect on Annabeth. I gulped, it showed off her long, evenly tanned legs- her flat stomach. I remembered back when we were twelve, she looked good then, easily one of the best looking girls in school. But now.. now she was beyond good looking, she was gorgeous. Now I'm not going to say anything about her chest because I'm not that much of a perv. She's still my best friend.

My cousin, Nico noticed my gawking and smirked.

"So your in to Annabeth huh? Isn't she a bit out of your league?.. well I don't blame you, most of the guys here are- no matter what grade their in." He said shrugging.

That dampened my mood a bit, but not as much as the fact that Luke Castellan was also in this class. I guessed that the main reason that Annabeth was in this class was that she wasn't a very good swimmer, so can imagine why I got so mad when the jerk Castellan walked up behind her, picked her up and tossed her into the deep end. I knew from experience that when she panics, which is most of the time she's in water she starts to sink.

I rushed forward and dived into the pool as soon as she went under. I saw her floating near the bottom of the pool. I swam forward as fast as my body would carry me. When I reached her, her arms immediately flew around my neck, holding on for dear life.

She came up sputtering.

"Damn you Luke!" Was all that she manged to shout before she went back into another major coughing fit. He looked at her then me, and shrugged.

"How was I suppose to know you couldn't swim?" I helped Annabeth out of the pool, hyper aware of how close our bodies were. Then turned on Luke.

"Well maybe if you listened to her sometimes, you would know that." He shrugged again.

"She didn't drown, so everything's fine." That did it. I lunged at him, fulling intending to beat his face it. I felt hands wrap around my arms holding me back. Damn Nico.

"Dude, a fight on your first day isn't the best thing you know." Nico was right but I still wanted to kill him. "And what about Annabeth? How would she feel, you beating up her boyfriend?" I sighed looking back to Annabeth. She was glaring daggers at Luke, but when she caught me looking at her, she locked eyes with me and shook her head, mouthing the words.Don't do it Percy! Its not worth it. I nodded, shrugging Nico off at the same time.

"So what your just gonna leave?" Luke asked. I could feel him smirking.

"Luke.." Annabeth began in a warning tone.

"Laps!" the swim coach yelled. I walked off trying, but failing to calm down. That was until Annabeth's hands wrapped around my arm. Her warmth spread throughout my body, sending shivers everywhere.

Annabeth's POV

Percy was mad. I don't mean need to let off a little steam mad, I mean full blown killing intent mad. He was rarely this mad, and it was even rarer for him to get into a fight, no less on the first day of school.

I couldn't help but wonder what happened to my old Seaweed Brain.

Still kinda short I know but with school and all the homework my math teacher gives us I won't be able to write much during the week days.=(

REVIEW PLEASE!
