HELLO BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE OF THE INTERNET. I bring to you another chapter of drama, teen angst, and wel...all the crazy percy jackson-ness
Annabeth POV
"You can not be serious Death breath!" Thalia all but yelled at Nico attracting a few looks from passing people at the food court.
"Way serious Pinecone face." Nico said back. We all watched amused as they continued to go back and forward in the middle of the mall food court.
"Hey guys!" Turning to the side I saw Percy walking up. My heart fluttered the moment his seagreen eyes came into view.
"Wassup Perce!" Leo said. Everyone went around sayin 'hey, and wassup." When Percy came around to me his eyes trained onto mine which did nothing for calming the thumping heart in my chest.
"Hey...Wise girl." He said it almost hesitantly as if he didnt know if he was still able to call me that.
"Back at you Seaweed Brain." He gave me a toothy smile which of course i couldnt help but return. It fell though as soon as she walked up.
"Hey guys!" Calypso said latching herself on to Percy's arm. Everyone was hesitant to reply. It was no secret what I was going to to tell Percy that day and it was no secret how i felt tword Calypso. It defintitly wasnt a secret about how silena felt about her becasue aparently she 'ruined the best thing since Romeo and Juliet', Silena's words not mine. Our freinds havent exactly taken a huge liking to her and although i love their support for that it wasnt fair to Percy. Seeing as how no one was going to speak up soon i decieded as Percy's friend i should. I put on a fake smile and said hi to her.
Everyone looked at me as if i'd gone nuts but i just shot them a look with a clear message. 'Play nice!' So they soon started to mummble greetings except for Silena who hissed.
"You're such an idiot!" Thalia yelled at Nico.
"Yeah well it takes one to know one."
"What are you in first grade?"
"Funny, i was going to ask you the same thing after seeing how your chest looked." Nico said.
"Hey Thalia, hey cuz." Nico said. The two of them turned simultaniously in Percy's direction and said hi. Thalia then proceeded to let loose a slur of words i didnt even know existed.
"Um...should we stop them?" Calypso asked.
"Nah..." Beck said. " Thalia will hit nico, then Nico will hit her back and they will beat on eachother for a little bit then get bored.
"Its an everyday thing." Jason shrugged.
"What is it even over this time?" Percy asked.
"No one knows." Hazel said.
"I put down ten on Nico though." Conner and Travis chorused.
"You guys are idiots." Went Katie.
"Yeah!" Bianca nodded then pulled a twenty out from her pocket. "Twenty says Thalia has my lip bro in a head lock in the next 5 to 10 minutes."
"Your on!" Conner said.
"Arguing like this do they remind you of anyone?" Percy asked looking at the two siedways.
"You!" Everyone bar, me, Calypso, Nico, and Thalia said.
"Huh?"
"Well you and Annabeth." Piper clarified.
"What are you talking about?" I asked.
"You and kelp head were always going at it for unknown reasons." Clariesse said.
"We did not!" Percy and I said at the same time then turned to eachother. "Stop copying me!"
"Not again!"
"Seaweed Brain/Wise Girl."
"Oh come on!"
"I rest my case!" Clariesse said.
"You rest nothing!" We both said turning on her.
"Yep those were the good old days!" Silena said.
"Good old days what happened?" Calypso asked.
"Well you see this little bi-mmfff mff... " Beck covered her mouth.
"Nothing!" Percy said hastily. "Nothing happened it just doesnt happen as often anymore because we became fiends."
"Friends?" Pffftt You guys were more than friends you were-"
"Best friends!" I intereupted Silena. "Beck why dont you take Sil to look at the clothes in that new store downstairs and we will meet you there."
"But I dont want to." Silena huffed. I walked to her and pulled her to the side.
"Silena i love you but i will kill you!"
"Annabeth i dont understand how can you just stand by and let her be with him?"
"Because he didnt choose me Sil, he chose her."
"So what you give up?"
"Im being a friend and as his friend you should acce[pt her or at least give off the allusion that you do."
"I don't rip her to shreds everytime she shows up looking tacky." Silena said as if that was what i meant.
"This incluedes not bringing up little momentos about me and Percy."
"My kindness for mpeople i dont like only goes so far."
"What is it exactly you dont like about her?"
"She killed Percabeth and she killed Percy's heart once already."
"She cant have killed something that never was Silena and as for Percy's heart well...he's in charge of that."
"Says who?" I laughed.
"Says free will."
"Well what about the fact that she's been causing you pain?"
"Silena what are you-"
"Dont lie to me Annie." Her look turned sympathetic. "I see the way you look at them it hurts you and i dont like thats you're hurting. So if she is the cause of your hurt i'll hurt her." I gave a small chuckle.
"Thats sweet Silena but...what about Percy." Silena waved her hand dissmissifly.
"Percy is in love with you he's just scared thats why he went back to her. Just you see after i eliminate the threat he will show you."
"Silena we're not eliminating anyone." I told her quickly. "And if what you say about Percy's feelings is true well then he has to come forward and say it, he cant be pushed into it."
"Sweety you are packing a VERY big brain in that beautifu head of yours but you obviously know nothing about men."
"Clearly." I rolled my eyes.
"Men need us to push them to do things. we just have to do it without them knowing we did so that way their manly ego isnt hurt or whatever."
"Silena we are not eliminating Calypso." I repeated trying not to laugh. I really love my friends!
"Well not eliminate, eliminate but how about we lock her in a room for a few hours or days possible." I rolled my eyes while she grinned at me.
"How about you let Beck take you to Tilly's?" I asked.
"Ooo i heard they had a cute knit Marlyn top for $8 im so there." She ran over and grabbed Beck's arm. "Come on honey and get your wallet out. "
"Thanks Annabeth!" Beck said his voice dripping with sarcasm.
"What was that about?" Calypso asked.
"Nothing dont worry about it." Piper said. "Jason you want to Go to the arcade play some games?"
"Where you go i follow." He grinned taking her hand.
"Hey im in too." Leo said.
"What about you Katie kat?" Travis asked. Katie hit him in the head then rolled her eyes. "So thats a yes?"
"Get ready to lose at Air hockey!" She said.
"We will catch you guys later."
"Back at my house my mom's out of town so we can have like a movie night or something." I told them.
"We should probably go too." Hazel said then she turned to Bianca. "I told Persephone we would help her prepare for her mother to come." Bianca groaned.
"What kind of bulle shit?"
"i know big sis but hey i have something that will make you happy."
"What?"
"you are about to win te bet in about less than a minute." We all turned back to nico and Thalia who were still arguing.
"Man those two have been going at it since we got here." Chris said.
"Yeah it makes you wonder how long they would last doing a more...passionate activity." Leo said smirking and of course all the guys snickered at the comment. I admittidly found it funny but the thought of it involving my god sister wigged me out.
"Ewww shut up Leo." I tossed a empty cup at him while everyoen laughed.
"Ow ookay okay Sparky let me go." Nico said from the head lock she had him in.
"Proven fact," Bianca said. "a girl can only spend so much time with our brother before wanting to puthim in a choke hold." She smiled. "Where's my money Stolls?" She swung around to where the brothers had been standing and to where they were now running away.
"Oh hell no! Yall better get your bet making, trouble causing, prankster asses back here." She yelled. "We'll be over later Annabeth." She said to me before taking off after the Stolls.
"Later." I laughed.
"Hey wait your my ride." Hazel yelled chasing after her sister.
"Well we should be heading out ive got things to do for later." I said awkwardly when i realized the only ones left were Percy, Calypso, Me, and the otherwise occupied Thalia and Nico. Calypso was leaning into Percy's side while he casually laid his arm over her shoulder. Silena was right it did hurt. It hurt like hell! Percy and I just started talking again but everytime i see her holding his hand, kissing him, or being cuddled up its just a reminder of what we can never have, no matter how much i...i love him. But hey i guess thats my fault huh for not saying anything sooner.
"Thalia. Thals. THALIA!" Thalia finally turned to me her eyes blazing with...well gods know what.
"What?" She asked.
"Let Nico go and bring your ass on." I said. She released nico and he fell to the floor.
"Later Death Breath. Hey Perce, hey bitch!" Unlike the others Thalia has not been so dismissive of her true feelings for Calypso.
"Always a pleasure Thalia. " Calypso said tightly. I couldnt tell if it was from anger of fear because Thalia was kind of staring her down pretty hard.
"Hey you still want me to bring that one CD?" Nico asked dusting himself off.
"If you show up without it you will be turned away." She said and Nico just nodded. I swear those two i will never understand. One second they are at eachothers throats and then one of them literally has the other by the throat and then all of a sudden...poof! It never ceases to amaze me.
"You know you guys should just go out already. "I whisperd to her. She responded by pushing me in the face. I only laughed. I ve known Thalia all my life and i knew when she was into a boy and she was into Nico hard!
"Wait so what movies are we watching because i refuse to watch any chick flicks." Nico said crossing his arms.
"Yeah i actually agree with little Nicki." Thalia said ruffeling his hair. "Please tell me Silena is not choosing the movies, because i love her but if i have to sit through a Twilight marathoni will kill her!"
"Oh god no!" I said. I had made the mistake of letting Silena choose what movie we watch one night at the theaters. Needless to say it was two hours and fifteen minutes of my life that I would never get back. "I was thinking Thor 2, Best man' holiday, and thanks to my awesomeness i have an advanced dvd copy of Cathcing Fire."
"May the odds be ever in your favor!" Percy and I suddenly said together. Our eyes caught eachothers and he gave a small smile. It was one of the many things we use to do after i forced him to read the first Hunger Games book.
"Wow best friends to the core!" Calypso laughed breaking the silence.
"Oh thats just one of many things." Thaia said with a small smile as she looked at me and winked. I sho ther a warning glance.
"What about food?" Nico asked.
"Chris is bringing deserts from his sousins bakery, Piper and Silena are bringing Wings and Pizza, Chris and Clariesse are bringing Chips, and the Stolls are bringing drinks."
"Wait a minute," Percy said throwing a hand up. "you're actually trusting the Stolls with something for human conception?"
"What? Do I look stupid to you? Don't answer!" I said holding a pointed finger in Nico's direction. I heard his almost inaudible chuckle. "Katie is bringing drinks and we're takign the Stolls drinks and putting them down in the other room. The probably spiked it and i dont have time for that." Percy nodded in understanding.
"Well this sounds like an awesome night. What time do we show up?" Calypso asked. The only way to describe this situationis awkward. You know how in movies a group of people will be talking and then one person says something that causes all conversation to stop and for everyone to stare at her in wonder? Yeah, well this was one of those moments.
I looked from Calypso to Thalia, who wore an 'are you fucking kidding me look, to Nico, who only had his eyebrow raised which in reality could mean anything with him, to Percy, who as always looked confused and cutely flustered, and back to Calypso, who looked wonderously at the rest of us.
"What, what did I say?"
"You're joking right?" Thalia was the first to speak.
"What?"
"You're not coming thats what!"
"Yeah Calypso I-I don't think that we should go." Percy said.
"Well why not?" Calypso's head tilted sideways like a wondering puppy. I had to bite my tounge from saying, 'because i dont like your heart breaking, hair flipping, Percy stealing, brown eyed ass!', thankfully i bite hard.
"Oh I'll tell you why!" Thalia started forward. "It's because you-mmmffm mmmm mm mmmmmm" Nico slipped his hand over her mouth and used his other arm to wrap around her waist and move her away.
"Eww Thals no licking!" Nico said pulling his hand back.
"Well don't put your hand over my mouth." She shrugged.
"You and Annabeth are best friends why wouldn't we go?" Calypso continued on. Percy was obviously struggeling with his words.
"Yeah but-"
"Right!" I said before i could stop myself. The only claim to Percy I held now was that we were best friends and thats one claim i intended to keep. "We're best friends!"
"Yeah like Shaggy and Scooby!" Percy said with a nervous smile.
"More like Bonnie and Clyde." I heard Nico whisper to Thalia.
"Well than we should go !" Calypso said.
"Come on Calypso you don't really want to spend your night with them at Annabeth's house do you?" Ouch! The way he said them you'd think we were brain eating alien slug bugs.
"Excuse me?" Thalia said glaring at him.
"Yeah I'm feeling the love Scoob!" I said crossing my arms.
"Why do I have to be Scooby?" He asked. I gave him an incredious look and he winced. "Right not the point!" He became nervouse now under my stare and he started to stutter.
"What I-i mean is...you know that- that...and everytime...but you know-"
"Dude stop stuttering its not its not man like." Nico said taking obvious joy in Percy's panic.
"Percy sweetie!" Calypso said placing a hand on his chest.
"Ye-yes honey!" Percy's voice squeaked a little. That boy does not do good in these situations.
"We're going!" She said and my eyebrow raised. "If Annabeth's okay with it." She turned her brown orbs onto me and flashed a sweet smile. I wanted nothing more but to smack it off her face. Does that make me mean?...nah im good.
"Actually-"
"Pizza arrives at 7 so if you want soem don't be too late." THalia looked at me with a glare for interupting her then shock rang over from what I said.
"Awesome!" She kissed Percy's cheek.
"Lets go Thals. See you guys later."
"Hey wait hold up." Percy said. He pulled free from Calypso and reached for me. "You're being awfuly cool about this. Are you sure?"
"Percy for the last time bring her I. dont. care!"
Oh you so care!
shut up Aphrodite not now!
"She's your girlfriend, your responsibility for whatever happens tonight." He nodded tightly.
"Let's go Thals!" We left.
Another perk coming from my mother being out of town, I actually get to drive. Right now I was driving my older brithers old mini coupe. Yeah can you believe it, a 5'10 macho high school football player use to drive a mini coupe. I forever hold it as leverage over him. The walk to the car and the first half of the ride was spent in silence with Thalia watching me non-stop.
"Not one word!" I warned.
"What the hell?" She said.
"I said not one."
"Yeah well that was three!" She smirked.
"Thals!"
"Annie!"
"Ugh gods your annoying!"
"And you're stupid!"
"I have a 4.0 GPa on College level!" I told her.
"Yeah okay you're a genius but your still an idiot!"
"That makes no sence."
"You make no sence! Why did you let her invite herself?"
"I couldn't just invite him and say she can't come."
"Like hell you couldn't You better slap that bitch with a red X and say DENIED! It hurts you I can see it clear as day and don't you dare try to denie it."
"Yeah okay fine it hurts!" I yelled at her. "But you just don't get it. I have feelings for Percy, feelings he had for me and I was afraid of acting on them because of our crazy screwed up families. I let fear stop me from going after him. And now it's too late."
"It's not too late."
"If I express my true feelings for Calypso it won't take her long to figure out me and Percy's feelings went beyond friendship. No matter how Percy feels about me now she wouldn't ever trust the two of us together, alone or crowded room."
"Well seems like a personal problem."
"Yeah for me. She'd make him Choose, me or her and..." I took a shakey breath and looked over at her. "...and i cant confidently say that he'd choose me." Thalia looked at me with something she rarely ever shows, pity and sorrow.
"Come one we've got furniture to move." I put the car in park as we pulled into the drive way.
"Annie I-"
"I know Thals." I nodded. "Now c'mon i can't afford to have the Stolls and Leo destroy my mothers furniture."
Percy POV
Breath Percy just relax. You're only aking Calypso over to Annabeth's house nothing to worry about. That is of course unless Calypso finds out im completely into Annabeth- i mean was into Annabeth becaue im over her like plane in the air. I'm back with Caypso be glade i mean look at her.
I looked over to the passenger seat were Calypso sat doing god knows what on her phone.
She's beautiful, talented, into me, smart, lemon scented hair and gray eye- i mean cinnimon scented hair and brown eyes. Come on Jackson get it together you and Annabeth are only friends. You don't have any feelings for her! You only care as a friend.
"So how long have you loved Annabeth?" Calypso asked.
"What?" My eyes went wide and I felt my heart stop.
"I said how long have you known Annabeth?" Calypso smiled.
"Oh." I laughed nervously. "Ah.. we met in the summer but we didn't really hang until school started."
"I think it's cool you're friends and evrything despite the whole Chase & Jackson of it all."
"Well you know me i'm all about the peace." I pulled up to the Athens gate and the buzzar went off atomatically.
"State your name, password, and the amount of money currently in your wallet." Said a familiar voice through the speaker.
"Percy, let me in or a certain picture of a certain someoen will be on Instagram, and nonthing ad far as you need to know."
"Percy hey man glade you could come give me a second." Leo left the speaker and seconds later the gate swung open. I drove down and parked behind Beck's truck.
"Wow!" Calypso said stepping out of the car. I smiled.
"Just wait till you see the inside." I opened the door when Calypso realized she forgot her purse in the car so she went back. I went inside and saw no one. They were probably in the screening room. I walked through the hall in the general direction of it.
"So are you serious he's bringing her?" I heard Katie's voice asked. I continued walking untill i came upon Katie, Bianca, and the Stolls. They were stting on stools at the bar in the screening room, their backs to me.
"He's bringing her!" Bianca confirmed.
"Dude im not good with girls but even I know thats not a thing to do." Conner said.
"I can believe he was so -"
"So what?" I interrupted. I had a little thought as to who they were talking about. The four of them spun around to face me.
"Hey Perce!" The Stolls nervously said together.
"You are an idiot!" Bianca said hitting me upside the head.
"Yeah love you too cousin."
"How could you be so inconsiderate?"
"What are you talkign about?"
"Annabeth, Calypso, the two of you all boo-ed up in her face, in her own house." Katie said. "It's kind of cruel Perce."
"Annabeth is the one that invited us. She's totally cool with it. Plus isn't she with Luke now?" I clenched my fists together adn this detail did not go un-npticed by them.
"You're still sweet on Annabeth aren't you?" TRavis smiled slyly.
"No im not." I lied right through my teeth.
"Yeah you are." Katie said. "Everytime Luke comes around you get all silent brooding, and suddenly annoyed."
"He's an annoying guy."
"You sure it has nothign to do with his infatuation with dear Annie."
"Im sure. Im friends with Annabeth nothing more. I don't care for Annabeth beyoond a friend. I don't like her. Im over her, im so-"
"Hey guy!" Annabeth walked into the room. She wore a pair of white shorts and a blue tank top. Her hair was falling freely and it bounced as she walked. She smiled brightly and- oh god i can't breath.
"Hey Seaweed Brain!" She smiled. I broke into a wide grin.
"Hey Wise girl!"
"So not over her!" I heard Travis and Conner whisper in sing song voices.
"Hey guys where are you?" Calypso's voice echoed through the halls. Annabeth's smile wavered and shrunk smaller.
"In here." I yelled back. seconds later she walked into the room.
"Hey! Nice place."
"Thanks my mother designed it herself." Annabeth answered.
"Hey Annabeth Leo is eating all the pizza!" Silena's voice yelled from where the screen and food was.
"Leo don't make me get the spray bottle i use for my moms cat." Annabeth yelled.
A muffled Sorry came back.
"Well come on we were just about to start Thor."
The way Thor went was the girls giggled and cheered evrytime he took his shirt off. Nico and Thalia got into a mild and brief pillow fight, Leo fell asleep, Jason and Piper left for a good fifteen minutes to 'talk', and Clariesse only threatend to kill the Stolls 4 times. When It went off we decieded to take a break and play some games before watching Catching Fire.
"Okay guys who is next?" Thalia asked. We were playing twenty questions only we did it a lot differently. Instead f answering questions about yourself you pair up with someone, and you are asked the same questions about eachother and you have to answer as many of them correct if possible.
"Wait what was their score?" Conner asked. Katie and Travis had just finished a round.
"Travis got 6, Katie got 10, neither of them got he bonus 21st question so the score is 16. No where near the highscore wow you guys suck!" Thalia said and we all laughed.
"Man we never get the 21ft question." Travis snapped.
"What I want to know is how you know what color my room is Stoll?" Katie asked.
"Well isn't it obvious," He said then leaned in closer. "I stalk you Katie Kat!" We laughed uncontrallable as Katie rolled her eyes and oushed him away.
"So if they were no where near the highscore what is it?" Calypso asked.
"A hundred." Piper answered. "Each question is two points and then the bonus is twenty."
"That would mean they would have to get every question right and the bonus." Hazel added.
"Are the questions always the same?" Calypso continued.
"Not really." Silena said. "Sometimes there are previously asked ones but never just the same ones."
"Cool i guess you and Beck must really be in sync to get them all correct." Silena and Beck laughed.
"We aren't the holders of the highscore." She said.
"Yeah," Beck rubbed his neck. "The farthest we get is like 40, and never the 21st."
"Oh!" Calypso looked embarassed. "Im sorry. I just assumed it was you because you'd been together the longest. So If it wasn't you guys well which couple was it?" Thalia smirked and I knew it was only going to go down hill from here.
"Why it was our dear Kelp head and Wise ass."
"Watch it Pinecone face!" I said and she shrugged me off.
"Wait you and Annabeth...you..."
"No!" Annabeth said wide eyed at what she was thinking. Is it bad i was some what dissapointed that the answer to that was no?
"Then how did you get all of them right?"
"It's a gift." I shrugged rubbing the back of my neck.
"Hey why don't yo uguys go next." Nico said.
"Yeah guys go." Frank added. Annabeth a and I met eachothers eyes.
"Was," She said. "It was a gift. It's been so long now."
"Yeah!" I nodded.
"It's been like a month since we last played." Chris said.
"Wow that long?" I said. "Man it's been ages."
"Can't believe it. Oh well maybe next time who wants popcorn?"
"OOOO me!" The Stolls and Jason chorused. Annabeth starting to stand only to have Thalia pull her back down.
"One round come on!" She said.
"Thalia no!"
"We' re starting." Thalia continued.
"Thals I-"
1. "Favorite color?"
"Gray!" I said instantly without thinking. Annabeth looked at me and we had, for the first time in weeks, one of our silent conversations.
What the hell you doing?
What? They aren't going to give up we might as well play right?
With a sigh she asnwered, 'green.'
(A/N -Percy's answers, Annabeth's answers because i dont want to have to do the he said, she said whatever after them.)
2. "Favorite song?"
"Lazy Song by Bruno Mars"
"Brand New Day 78Violet version."
3. "Favorite Dance?"
"Tango."
"Waltz."
4. "Why?"
"It reminds her of those old black and white movies she use watch with her dad when she was younger." I answered looking at Annabeth.
"He believes the Tango is more about trust the deepest form of intamacy." She answered a hundred percent correct.
5."Dream vacation?"
"Greece."
"Huwaii."
6."Favorite spot?" Piper had threw the question in.
"Anywhere with water."
"Where ever love is."
7."Favorite kind of hat?" Nico asked.
"Her Yankees cap her mom bought her at a game once."
"Trick question Percy never wears hats."
8."Favorite food?" Frank asked.
"Thai food."
"Even though id argue it's not food he would say his moms blue chocolate chip cookies." Annabeth laughed and I broke a smile. We once spent a whole afternoon debating on if chocolate chip cookies could be considered food or only desert.
"Okay see thats where your wrong his favorite food is fish." Calypso said with a sort of smugness to it. Annabeth scowled, she didn't like her intelligence being questioned even if it was over something as small as this.
"No," She said. "fish is his favorite animal, the other is horses," She added at seeing Leo's open mouth. He closed it after she answered. "Percy would never eat fish he likes them too much, spends too much time swiming with them."
"It would be like canabolism seeing as how he is obviously part fish." Jason said.
"Can we get back to the game now?" Silena asked. Calypso sowled but nodded. We went on like that for a while Annabeth and I answering questions, Calypso interrupting every now and then only to be proven wrong. It was almost as if nothing had changed.
18. "Dream job?"
"Architect!"
"Marine biologist."
19. "Family how do they see it turning out?" Silena sked looking at Beck as she asked the question.
"Married with two kids one boy and one girl." We said together.
20."Most embarassing moment?" Travis asked.
"With details please." conner said pulling out a small video recorder.
"It was seventh grade he was swimming at the local pool and he was trying to impress this girl, so when a boy dared him to jump from the high bored the varsity college team uses for freestly practices he did. When he came up his shorts had come off." Everyone was laughing now.
"I can't believe you told them that." I said tunring red but i wasn't from anger.
"Its the game." Annabeth shrugged with a small smile playing on her lips.
"Okay well i guess i can tell them about the time you went to the zoo with your cousins right?"
"Percy!" Her eyes widened and smile gone. It was my tunr to smile. "Don't do it."
"Its the game!" I shrugged. "When Annabeth was 10 she went to the zoo with her cousins from out of town and her little cousins started to throw food at her so she got all sticky and wet with kid snacks. She ran into the nearest bathroom which turned out to be the archmid room-"
"Which was stupidly unlocked by the way!" She grummmbled.
"She turned the light on and saw all the spiders roaming around and freaked and ran out. Problem was a bunch of them had already climbed on her because of the stuff on her clothes. So she ran around the zoo stripping her clothes off." Everyone, including me and minus Annabeth adn Calypso, were red from laughter. Annabeth was red but she wasnt angry, infact she even chuckled a little.
"Wow how is it i never heard that story?" Thalia asked.
"And why didn't i know about this pool incident?" Asked Nico.
Alrigth can we do the final question now im ready to watch Catching Fire." Calypso snapped rather rudely. Something told me i was in for it later.
"OOoo can i ask the last one? Leo asked. "I swear i'll make it a good one they will never ge t this right."
"Go for little elf." I said.
"Alright guys bonus question 21. What color underwear is the other wearing?"
Nico spit out the soda he was drinking.
"Phahahaahhahahhahaha" He rolled over with laughter. The others laughed as well. Hazel to the point she had to fan herself. Annabeth and I just tunred red.
"Why-why would we know that?" Annabeth asked.
"You aren't denying that you do." Silena said.
"Sorry but im not a creeoer like Travis i don't lok to see what color she wears every morning. "
"Hey!" Travis protested.
"Just take your closest guess." Beck said. "If you're right you're right, if your wrong well you lose your winning streak no big." Everyone looked expectantly at us.
"Fine!" Annabeth sighed. "Anything to get you to stop looking at me." She turned her eyes on me. I in all honsetly couldn't remember what boxers i put on after i showered before picking Calypso up. "Percy loves superheroes his favorite is batman but i know he likes to aggrivate me on Superman so im going to wild guess ansd say he is wearing Superman boxers." She shrugged.
Everyone then turned to me.
"Um...Annabeth is the type that likes to match everything. Right shirt, right, pants, right socks. She's wearing white shorts and a blue tank top now and i can see the straps to her bra are black so im guessing her underwear are black too."
"What kind of fabric?" Travis asked. Katie hit him. "Ow what im curious to know if our Annie is a thong girl."
"Silk or lace." I answered turning red as can be, but not as red as Annabeth.
"Are those your final answers?" Thalia asked smiling. She was clearly enjoying our torture. Annabeth and I both nidded. Apart of me didn't want to be right but the other part of me did. To know that i knew her so well that i could guess her underwear...that would be something i'd like.
"Well are they right?" I took a peak under my cargos and blusehd as i realized she was.
"Superman." I confirmed.
"Annabeth?" Silena asked. Apparently Annabeth didn't need to check to know.
"Black...lace." She blushed hard and hid her face behind her hair. I had to reist the smile threatening to some out. Everyone was quiet.
"Damn your good!" Leo said.
"Yeah that was...something!" Piper agreed.
"I'll say!" calypso said tightl yas she tossed a grape into her mouth.
"Uh..well you know bestfriends and what not." Annabeth said.
"And what not!" Thalia said smirking. "Once again a hundred!" Annabeth smiled a little but her face was still red as im sure mine was too.
"So...Catching Fire." Annabeth said getting up to put it in the DVd player.
"Why bother we already have the starcrossed lovers here with us." Silena said. Before anyone could repsond to her comment a huge bang was thangkfully heard from downstairs.
"What the hell?" Annabeth said.
"My android." Leo jumped up and rushed to the basement.
"What Android? Valdez if my mom's furniture is messed up so help me god...!" Annabeth ran after him.
"Ooo the little mexican elf is going to get it!" Frank said jumping up. "I'm not missing this!" He ran after them.
"Hey wait for me!" Nico said. Everybody started heading down to the basement or to the kitchen to get something to drink, leaving only me and Calypso.
"Uh..."
"That was some game." She said.
"Just one of the many games me and my friends play you know."
"Sure why not." She shrugged.
There was another boom from downstairs followed by a few shrieks. I was going to go see what happened when my phone started to buzz.
"Hello?"
"Percy, Annabeth needs a new shirt my android sort of oiled on her."
"Leo what the hell man do you want to die tonight?" I asked.
"Not particularly no."
"Next time don't bring an android to Annabeth's house. Matter of fact don't bring an android around anyone."
"I'll save that brilliant advice for later thank you."
"Bye!" I hung up the phone and sighed.
"Whats wrong?" Calypso asked running a hand on my arm.
"Leo's android oiled on Annabeth and she needs a new shirt."
"Of cousre she does." I headed in the direction of the grand stairs with Calypso following behind.
As we passed the place Annabeth adn I shared our first kiss i recognized the scratch id put in the rail when i fell. As we kept going down the hall I realized i'd never walked around up here and i wasn't even sure if i was gogin right. We turned the corner and came face to face to a double doored room. It was marked with a dry erase board on it and it said: KEEP OUT TWINS!
"This is Annabeth's room im guessing?" Calypso said.
"Yeah it's pretty obvious aint it!" I laughed. I threw open the door and wow!
It was so...Annabeth! It was spotless! Her bed was made and mot one thing was out of place. Her walls were gray with silver streaks and various quotes from her favorite books. Speaking of books she of course had this huge bookcase against the wall. There wan't an empty spot. She had a futon couch, a desk with a laptop, an abnormally large flat screen tv hanging, and a very nice speaker system set up.
"Nice." Calypso said.
"It's Annabeth." I smiled and walked over to her dresser that stood next to her bookcase. I avoided the top two drawers because usually those are where people put underwear and pajamas, and i am not a creeper. "Alright what to get, what to get?" I pulled open the third drawer and saw a bunch of different shirts.
"How about this one?" Calypso said picking up a blue sweatshirt.
"Nah Annabeth says that always makes her itch."
"Blue shirt?"
"Too small."
"Yellow?"
"Too bright!"
"Well damn!" Calypso said throwing her hands up.
"Ooo hold on i know!" I went to the closet were her other shirts were hung and found her long sleeve black shirt. I pulled it off the hanger.
"Thisis her favorite shirt."
"Wow you know were she keeps her shirts. How many times you been in here?"
"This is actually the first time."
"And you knew were she kept her favorite shirt?" I shrugged. "You know everything ther is to know about her."
"Not everything. " I protested.
"Percy you guessed what inderwear she was wearing." I really didn't know how to answer that. I guess it's just that i know how Annabeth is and she is likely to hang her favorite shirts and put her least in her dresser drawer. Shes likely to match her bra with her underwear. thats just the kind of person she is.
"I guess I just know her well."
"A little too well. Is there something I should be worried about?"
"What? You kidding me? No of course not!" I closed Annabeth's closet.
"Are you sure?" Every inch of me was screaming no but my mouth said yes. She leaned up and kissed me. I kissed her back but shortly. It felt...worng to kiss her in Annabeth's room. Like it was disrespectful or something.
"Come on lets go back downstairs."
"In a second. Lets have little alone time first." She grinned suggestively at me. She pushed me back until i sat at the corner of Annabeth's bed. She then crawled onto my lap and started to kiss me again.
"We can't everyone is right downstairs." Not to mention Annabeth will burn you alive and castrate me if she catches us.
"Don't worry." She kissed on my cheek. "I'll be as quiet as a church mouse." She stared nibbeling on my ear and all of my will crumbled. Im usually all good for my repsonsibility but im a guy dammit! Just as she started moving back to my neck the door came open and Annabeth walked in covered in oil. She saw us and her face changed three differnt moods before i could track them down. The only one I did catch was anger, no not anger, fury! I basically threw Calypso off me and onto the floor.
"What the Fuck? Calypso asked.
"How funny thats what i was going to say!" Annabeth said glaring back and forward between the two of us.
"Annabeth I-we,...and oil...leo...getting...shirt." I held the black shirt up.
"Oh you were getting something alright." Thalia and the others had shown up but Annabeth didn't seem to noticed. Calypso pushed herself up and brushed off.
"Annabeth we-"
"Oh shut the hell up already Calypso!" She said.
"Excuse me?"
"Hell yeah!" Clariesse said.
"I am so sick of you and seeing you. I didn't intvite you tonight i dont even like your ass. None of us like you!"
"Finally!" Thalia said.
"What did i do to you?"
"You came back!" Annabeth said. "You ruined everything!" She looked at me. My eyes widened as i realized what she meant.I didn't think...i thought she had... Calypso looked over to me then to Annabeth.
"I knew it. I knew there was something going on between the two of you."
"No shit!" Hazel said. "A blind person culd see that."
"Nothing is going on between us. Annabeth and I are just friends."
"Oh bull shit!" Silena said stepping up.
"Sil-" Beck said.
"No im tired of being told to be quiet." She said. "You want the truth Calypso here is the truth. Percy is in love with Annabeth and when Annabeth said they couldn't be together because of their families ccraziness he was crushed, then you came back into town making him go loopy in the head. Which is pretty mean because we already know he has a hard time with things that requires thinking." She then turned a painted nail at Annabeth. "Annabeth is crazy about that boy. He is perhaps the only person that can actually get Annabeth be Annabeth and not Athena's daughter. She was going to tell him how she felt then-"
"Silena!" Annabeth yeleld. Her face was flushed. From anger or blushing i didn't know. I didn't know if I wanted to know.
"This is all...all...Well i dont know what the hell this is!" Calypso said.
"Call it a revealation bitch!"' Thalia said smirking at Calypso.
"Are you into Percy too? Is that why you've been rude to me?"
"No it's just because I don't like you."
"Second that!" Silena said.
"Listen i'm just going to say something I 've been wanting to say all night." Annabeth said.
"Oh yeah, what?"
"Get your bi-polar, too good for Percy, orange boots with purple shirt wearing ass out of my house!"
"Fine by me. Percy let's go!"
"Ah..." I looked around to my freinds, Annabethm and Calypso. They all looked at me expectantly. I had no idea what to do! I wanted to stay but I couldn't just do that. I was raised to be a gentleman and no matter what, I did come here with Calypso. Speaking of Calypso she turned on her heels and stomped out the room. "Calypso wait!" I yelled after her. I took off running after her and halfway down the hall i went back.
"I'll be back. I promise." I said looking only at Ananbeth.
"Don't bother."
"I think we have some things to talk about."
"I think everything was said."
"PERCY!" Calypsop yelled.
"I'll be back." I said before running down the stairs.
