FIRST THE REST OF THE LAST
CHAPTER
Eventually after more laughter-mostly at me- and Leo getting hurt-all from Thalia-, we fell asleep. Thalia slept on the couch and Leo took the love seat. For some odd reason Nico found the coffee table to be really comfortable so thats where he slept. Jenny pulled some bing bag chairs together and slept on them. Silena and Beck cuddled up on the floor by the t.v, Piper and Jason by the love seat, which left Annabeth and I by the couch. Sometime on the middle of the night I woke up though and went to sit out back. No soon latter Annabeth came out looking for me. Wrapped in the big blanket, with her hair throne around a little and just a bit of sleppiness showing on her face. We scooted two pool chairs together so we could share the cover and look out at the stars. WE did until we fell into a peaceful sleep. Unfortunately only ten minutes into that sleep the sprinklers went off sending us running back inside.
Calypso's pov
I sat in the back of the coffee shop, drinking hot chocolate, and waiting for certain people. I swear had this not been so hard just to convince them to meet with me, I would have left along time ago. The lady came over to refill my cup and my cell rung.
"Hello." I answered.
"We are here, now hurry up and explain why." said a voice that I knew all too well. I looked around the store but didn't see them. When i scanned passed the big window across the room I saw a black limo outside and a driver standing outside the door waiting patiently.
"A little creepy don't you think?" I heard the voice sigh in irritation.
"You have 15 minutes which started when you picked up the phone." With those awesome words he hung up.
The driver saw me approach and opened the door. I slid into the limo on the row across from the big three, also known as the parents of the leaders of my number one fan club. Note the sarcasm, if you didn't get it than your and idiot.
"Thanks for meeting with me." I said. Hades and Zeus nodded but Poseidon just scowled.
"Say what you have to say so we can go." He said. Oh man he looked so much like Percy. Those eyes, that hair, the cute way his jaws clenched when he's mad.
"A little hostile for someone who's coming to help you."
"Well tell me how should I regaurd the girl who once broke my son's heart."
"Son?" You're using that word very loosely and everything isn't so black and white."
"Did you or did you not cheat on him with one of Hermes' sons?"
"Enough!" Zeus said interrupting. "Brother we will not argue with a child."
"Yes." Hades agreed. "Lets just do this so we can all leave." I nodded and faced them al once again.
"So I looked over all the events, events that has caused you nothing but bad press i might add, that has happened sense Connect 3 started going to Goode and I've come up with a conclusion."
"Well don't keep us in suspense." Hades said. I reached into my bag and pulled out a series of papers and I handed it off to them. THe brothers sat and looked over them pausing at times to argue with each other.
"This." Zeus said. "could possible work. " He stuck out his hand for me to shake in agreement to the idea. I shook his hand, smiled in triumph and got out the car.
OOOOO WHAT ARE THEY PANNING? aNYWAYS NOW HERE IS THE REAL CHAPTER.
PERCY POV
"Yes!" I shouted as I reached the end of the pool. I was in swim practice and swimming better than ever. I no longer had to wear that stupid arm brace and I was back in the water and playing my music. We were doing races and I just beat everyone.
"Damn!" Jason said pulling his self out the water. "Did you get faster?" I shrugged and ran over to Annabeth. I picked her up into a hug getting her cloths wet.
"Ahh Seaweed brain!" She said hitting me. I laughed and put her down. She threw my towel at me and ruffled my wet hair. "That was a god job though."
"Well I've got my good luck charm." I was going in for a kiss when coach had suddenly appeared at my side.
"Jackson that was amazing. I've never seen you swim so fast." He said excitedly.
"Guess I had energy to burn off." I said.
"Well save some of that for tonight's meet. Lake highlands is going down."
"Whooo!" Came the general response from the team members.
"Your coming?" I asked Annabeth.
"Wouldn't miss it." She grinned at me. "Now go change." I headed into the locker room as i was told. I did a quick shower and changed into a black and gray stripped v-neck shirt, gray jeans, black Addidas, and my black Hollister jacket. Picking up my books I headed back out to join the others. The girls were all looking at something on Piper's phone while the guys were watching something on Beck's mini portable t.v he made. It's so awesome it's almost like and I pad except smaller and it has a wicked security system, Annabeth designed it herself. I was considering going over to watch with them when I remembered I swore to myself i'd tell tell Annabeth today.
"Hey Wise girl lets go i wanna talk to you."
"Okay." She grabbed her books and we went out to the quad. Students were walking around and stalking with friends but none of them paid us any attention.
"So wassup?" She asked me.
"You know I love you, right?"
"Yeah." She said slowly while narrowing her eyes at me.
"I want you to remember that okay."
"Why, what did you do?"
"Nothing...recently this happened like a while back. A long while back."
"Well don't keep me waiting." She pushes her bangs out of her eyes.
"Me and -"
"Annabeth!" Malcolm interrupted running up.
"Hey Mal." Annabeth gave him a hug and I shot him a nod.
"Sorry interrupt guys but there are some problems with the green house."
"Problems like what?"
"Problems like someone ruined your blueprints plus the back-up ones."
"What?" Annabeth Shrieked.
"Yeah one was found in the shredder and the other had a bunch of different paint colors splattered on it."
"Son of a bitch! This has R.E.D's name all over it."
Word to the wise do not and I mean never in a million years touch Annabeth's designs. If it was a choice between burn her blueprints or being in a cage with a tiger, choose the tiger. trust me you will have a better chance of survival.
"Same thing I was thinking." Malcolm said. "So the crew is confused on what goes where and they are starting to argue and give me a migraine."
"I can direct them from memory and it shouldn't take that long. Go gather everyone and meet me there in ten minutes." He nodded and ran off. "Ahh...Percy I'm sorry what were you going to tell me?"
"Uh...it's okay we can talk about it later."
"You sure?"
"Yeah, go save the day." She kissed me quickly before heading off.
~LINESKIP~
Annabeth ended up missing both first and second period. She sent me a text saying she would be in music though which made me happy because i had no idea if i could deal by myself. AS I was walking to music some one's hands found their way around my waist. It was a little too close to my...uhh...intimate area so I had a exact guess on who it was. With out turning around I sighed.
"What do you want Calypso?"
"Oh come on Perce you know what I want." She said smiling slyly.
"Well I wan a magical talking pony." I said.
"What does that have to do with me?" I leaned down close and whispered into her ear.
"Because we both want something that we will never, even in our wildest dreams, get." I pulled her arms away and walked into class. I sat down next to Annabeth and gave her a hug. She looked a little angry and I saw her glaring at Calypso still standing by the door. I realized she must have a had a clear view of us.
"You saw?"
"Yeah."
"Don't worry about it."
"Percy her hand was on your..." She said loudly but realized everyone could hear. "She was touching you okay."
"It's okay I set her straight."
"Hope so cuz if not, I'll set her straight with my fist." I smiled and she gave a small laugh.
"Hello darlings!" Aphrodite walked in. "Hello Percabeth!" She said pointedly at Annabeth and I. I looked away while Annabeth rolled her eyes and did a face palm. " Aww you guy are so cute!"
"Sorry to interrupt your admmoration for them but we have a lesson to get to." Calypso sneered.
"Now, now Calypso green isn't a good color on you." Aphrodite said.
"I'm not jealous."
"So your just in a hurry to learn how a real performer does things then?" Annabeth said. I was a bit shocked at first but figured something like this if not worse was going to happen.
"Like you could ever teach me something."
"I could teach you a lot of things, one being addition and subtraction because i'm sure with your I.Q level you're struggling with that." Some people Oooed. "Another thing would be how to actually carry a tune and match harmony."
"As If." Calypso stood.
"Wanna find out." Annabeth stood too.
"Maybe another time big brain. when we aren't in class."
"Actually," Aphrodite said. "now is a good time. Today's lesson is on harmony. to get good harmony the people have to have a certain chemistry and who better to demonstrate than Percabeth. If you want?" I looked at Annabeth and she nodded.
"Oh I want." We got up and headed to the stage. Aphrodite gave us the sheet music.
"All you will need is the piano and your beautiful voices." She told us. I sat down at the keyboard bench and motioned for Annabeth to scot next to me.
"You sure?" I asked. She smiled at me.
"Nothing would bring me more joy ." I smiled and started playing the notes to get the feel of it. Then I added the cords and soon we were singing.
PERFECT HARMONY
(ANNABETH, PERCY, BOTH)
(Going back in forward between pov)
When I first saw you
Didn't know what to think
But something about you is so interesting
Well If that wasn't true I don't know what is. I thought. When I first met Percy I figured he was a stuck up spoiled rich boy with just amazing eyes, but then I got to know those amazing eyes and the goofy smile under them.
I can see me and you
Being best friends
The kind of friends that finish each other's sentences
Sometimes we do finish each other's sentences and when we do i love it, because i feel like we are so in sync together. Even before we started dating there was an instant connection.
When I can't think of the right words to say
I just sing "oh oh oh)
Come on and harmonize with my melody
We'll just sing "oh oh oh)
Ain't it a Perfect Harmony?
I would of never though I'd be here with you
To start a friendship that is so brand new
Those words were real feelings i had. One moment i was on a plane going around the world surrounded my fans and in the next im here in a high school with a girl i'd never dreamed possible.
It's so amazing I have to say
Never met someone that had so much in common with me
Now I can look into your eyes all day
And just say "oh oh oh)
Ahh I lover her gray eyes. They are so intoxicating. I stared at them now as i sang.
I wanna harmonize with your melody
We'll just sing " oh oh oh)
Ain't it a Perfect Harmony
Sometimes in your lifetime you look and search for someone just to care
Look around at it was there
And we didn't need to go no where
When I can't think of the right words to say
I just sing "oh oh oh)
Come on and harmonize with my melody
We'll just sing "oh oh oh)
Ain't it a Perfect Harmony?
You got me
I got you(x2)
You got me
I got you(x2)
A Perfect Harmony
We ended singing together and somehow we were nose to nose. Everyone in the background was clapping but it seemed distant almost fading. All that i heard was my heartbeat matching hers., until A familiar voice drew me out.
"Dad?" I questions. I looked over and saw my dad and uncles standing near the door.
"We need to speak to you." Hades said.
"All of you." My father commented.
"All three of you." Zeus specified eyeing Annabeth next to me. I looked at her and she nodded saying it was fine. Aphrodite gave my dad a quick hug before they lead Thalia, Nico and I out. We followed them across the hall to an empty room. They stood on one side while the three of us stood together. Nico sat in a chair backward and Thalia on one side while resting her arm on his shoulder, and me leaning against the wall.
"So what do you want?" Thalia asked.
"Your enthusiasm to see me is great." Zeus said.
"Oh, well you will get over it.'"
"Lets skip the mindless talk and just come out with it." Hades said.
"The tour is back on." My dad said.
"WHAT?" We all yelled. I pushed off the wall, Nico stood u, and Thalia stood straight.
"We are putting the tour back on." Zeus said.
"Don't play with us, because if you are it's not funny." Nico said.
"No games." My dad said. "You will start here in New York, go to Australia, Paris, California, San Antonio, Hawaii, and Washington where you will perform for the President."
"Shut up!" I yelled. "President as in...the president."
"THe one and only." Hades said.
"I take it you guys are happy with this news."
"Hell yeah!" Thalia said.
"Thalia language." She waved Zeus off dissmissingly.
"When do we leave?" Nico asked.
"Next friday." My dad said. "You do a quick song or two then board a plane."
Friday. Damn, Damn, Damn, Damn! Why did it have to be Friday. I looked over at the others and we had the same thought.
"What's the problem?" Hades asked.
"The Showcase is Friday we are suppose to be there."
"Oh pish posh." Zeus said waving his hand. "Your beyond petty shows."
"We gave our word." Nico said.
"So your refusing our offer?" Zeus asked getting slightly angry.
"WE need some time to answer." I said. Zeus turned red and looked ready to yell, but my dad whispered something to him.
"Well what do you two think?" Hades asked, Thalia and Nico.
"I'm with Perce." Thalia said.
"And I'm with them." Nico answered.
"Fine." Zeus said. "You have until sunday to answer that is 4 days." With those last words they left leaving us wondering about what choice we had to make.
