Hello again. I got some great review on the first chapter. I just want to say thanks to everyone who read it. I feel like this one got a little Occ, sorry. If you like it, hate it, or have suggestions, please don't hesitate to review with those comments. I'll try to update somewhat regularly. Enjoy.
Disclaimer: If I were uncle Rick, I would've had Percabeth included in Trials of Apollo. Alas, I am merely a fanfiction writer obsessed with the ship he created.
"Hey Perce! Are we still coming over today?" I ask as we walk into science, our last class of the day.
"Ya," Percy responds. "It's just you, Mike, and Joey, right?"
"No. Joey had to cancel. I can't believe that Josh got sick."
"Okay, so just the three of us? Perfect," Percy says, half smiling.
Once the final bell rang and we grabbed our stuff, Percy led Mike and I over to his car. Mike was talking about how he just got the newest Call of Duty game, something in which Percy surprisingly wasn't interested.
We walked into the apartment and I could smell something baking. "Hey Percy, I thought your mom wasn't home."
"I don't think she is," Percy says, looking a little confused. "You guys get the controllers set up, I'll go check."
We walk into the living room, trying to hear what was going on. I heard Percy say something that sounded kind of like "wise girl" and a girl's voice reply. After waiting for a solid 5 minutes, Mike and I walk into the kitchen to find Percy making out with some blonde chick. I clear my throat.
The girl looks up and blushes slightly, seeing as they weren't alone in the house. She then slaps Percy lightly on the shoulder. "Seaweed Brain! Why didn't you tell me there were people over."
"Oh. Well. I forgot once I found out you were here," Percy stammers, trying to please the girl.
Clearly not impressed with this explanation, the girl turns to us and says,"Hello, I'm Annabeth Chase, this idiot's girlfriend. And you are?"
Mike clearly in awe over the fact that our best friend has a girlfriend, I say,"I'm Tony Benachi and this is Mike Melgrin. I didn't realize that Percy had a..."
She cuts me off. "Perce! You didn't mention me?" She glares in his direction.
"It never came up?" He says with a shrug, not quite sure of his answer.
"Well, I made cookies if either of you would like any. They're not his mom's but I think they're pretty good," Annabeth says.
"Thanks Beth," Percy says. " we were going to play video games. Wanna join?"
"Do you wan to be beat?" Annabeth responds playfully. "Ya, sure. I'll play."
After many rounds, we realize that there was no way we were going to win anytime soon. Somewhere in the middle, Percy's mom walked in and gave a soft laugh at the scene, but we were all to enthralled to really notice.
Finally the time had come for Mike and I to head home. "It was nice meeting you Annabeth. Thanks for the cookies," Mike says as we head out the door.
"It was nice to meet you two. We'll have to do it again sometime," she responds before Percy closes the door.
It was hard imagining that our best mate had a girlfriend, but after getting to know her, I'd have to say that they were meant to be with each other.
