Toilet Paper

"Percy…" I heard Annabeth call from down the hall.

"Annabeth? Is everything okay?" I asked from my spot on the couch in the living room.

"Um… could you come here please?"

"Yeah sure… Um… Where exactly are you?" I asked getting up.

"In the bathroom…" It sounded like she was blushing.

"Oh…"

I walked over to the bathroom door and knocked. "Um Annabeth, is everything alright? This is the one of those girl emergencies right? Because I have no idea where you keep any of that stuff…"

"Percy! No! I'm just out of toilet paper... Can you please get me some? It's in the laundry room." She called from inside.

"Oh. Toilet paper. Uh yeah I'll go get you some."

I walked to the small laundry room of Annabeth's apartment, and over to where she stored extra bottles of shampoo, Band-Aids, and of course toilet paper.

"Oh crap." I said after searching for a roll of toilet paper, which evidently was not there.

"The neighbors, maybe they have some." I said and bound for the door.

I walked her to the neighbor's door and knocked and stood there awkwardly waiting for them to answer.

An old lady, that didn't even reach the height of my shoulder, answered the door.

"Yes young man? Can I help you with anything?"

"Um hi, I'm Percy, your neighbor Annabeth's boyfriend."

"Oh Annabeth, she's a very sweet girl."

"Yeah," I smiled, "She is. But I was wondering do you have a spare roll of toilet paper?"

"Oh," she chuckled and then smiled sweetly, "Yes I do I'll be right back." She told me and then closed the door. I stood there for about a minute and thirty seconds admiring the floor, until she came back.

"Here you go Percy." She said handing me the roll.

"Thank you Ma'am, have a good day."

"You too." She said and then went back inside.

I ran back to Annabeth's apartment door, but when I twisted the knob it was locked.

"Key, key, key….Where the Hades is my key!?" I said patting my pockets. "I left it inside! And Annabeth is stuck in the bathroom…"

I checked my pockets again to see if I had anything I could possibly use to get inside. "Gold drachma, Riptide…wait that's a regular pen… here's Riptide."

"What can I do with toilet paper, a pen, and a gold drachma?" I asked myself while taking a seat on the floor leaning against the door. "I got it."

I took out the regular pen and grabbed the toilet paper. On the first sheet of toilet paper I wrote:

Annabeth Chase

Bathroom of Annabeth Chase

Manhattan, New York

I skipped a sheet on the roll and then wrote:

Annabeth, you didn't have any toilet paper left so I went to borrow some from your neighbor, and I forgot my key so now I'm locked out and sitting out in the hallway. Don't judge me it's the best I could think of.

~Percy

I placed the toilet paper on the ground and put the drachma on top of it. I then muttered a prayer to Hermes and watched the roll vanish.

After five minutes of sitting in the hallway and playing with drawstrings of my hoodie, Annabeth finally came to the door, which resulted in me falling on my back.

"You are such a Seaweed Brain." Annabeth said looking down at me and offered me her hand.

"Did you get my package?" I grinned, grabbing her hand.

"Yes, I did. Scared the heck out of me, wasn't really expecting it." She said walking inside.

"Yeah I guess you're not used to toilet paper appearing out of this air while you're in the bathroom." I said following her inside.

"But really there wasn't any toilet paper left? I swear I bought some last week." She asked walking into her laundry room.

"Yeah I couldn't see any."

"Gods that stuff gets used up so fast. Did you know the average person uses up to 23.6 rolls of toilet paper a year? That's 20,805 sheets a year. So on average you use about 57 sheets per day. "

"Really? I'd think it would be a lot more, well for a girl at least..."

Annabeth stopped and gave me an odd look.

"Well you know because… Oh never mind."

"Good choice." She said walking over to the shelf she kept her stock of toiletries on.

"Annabeth why exactly did you come in here? I told you there wasn't any toilet paper."

"I know, but I want to see if there is anything else I need to buy." She said looking around the shelf, "Um Percy…"

"Yeah?" I said turning to face her.

"What do you call this?" She held up a roll of toilet paper.

"I just can't win today."

Lexie: Is it me or does this chapter seem even more pointless than the rest? I only had like one fact in here! But there can only be so many facts about toilet paper. But so anything like this ever happen to any of you? I have been in Annabeth's position before, but come on hasn't everyone?

Happy New Year everyone! I hope you all have your New Year Resolutions because I don't! I think I'm going to make mine be: Going to bed earlier, updating more, and procrastinating less.

Anybody else do some stupid stuff with your friends last night? My friends and I went on the next street over to go ding dong ditch people, but we ended up pranking some other girls. First we walked by them acting all suspicious with our hoods over our faces. After that we decided we were going to throw all the coins we had in our pockets (which was a lot because of a tradition my family has) so we walked by them again, my friend shouted "OH MY GOD IT'S THE NEW YEAR!" (It was like 1:20 then) we threw our coins at them and ran screaming like idiots. We probably gave them like 5 dollars in change. We did something else, but I'll save that for next chapter. Wow this author's note was 226 words.
