Okay. I know you guys are mad. Are you? I didn't crawl into under a rock and die.

I had a little bit of writers' block and then there were tests and home works for two weeks. I didn't have time to continue the story. My HAP (Higher achievement program) classes are really stressing us and it's really hectic this month. I'm really busy but I wanted to give you guys a chapter.

Priyamvadha (Guest): Ikr, I'm way ahead of people in my class and nobody in my class seemed to have read of Rick. It's so frustrating. But, to answer your question I live in Hyd too. I can't tell my school name out publicly but I'd be happy to be PMed and I'd answer your question. Thank you so much for reading my fic.

DISCLAIMER: I read this somewhere and I had to use it.

I don't own Percy Jackson. Annabeth Chase does ;)

Here we goo!

P.S: Just out of curiosity…. How many of you are guys and girls? I always thought most fan fiction users are girls. I just want my fic to be gender-friendly so if any of you are guys out there, tell me if the male characters' pov's are sappy or something. Constructive criticism is very well appreciated.

Annabeth:

"Now, so first question?" I asked Percy.

"This one's from Princess Andromeda II, are you guys living together?" Percy read out from his phone.

"Well, maybe." I answered looking at the camera. I didn't want to reveal we are. "Next?"

"Can we expect some albums by both your bands? From nooneinparticular. Cool name." He said and I let him answer this one.

"Yes, you can expect albums by both our bands but you have to wait, guys." He said.

"Where do you see yourselves in ten years? From bubblepink (I just couldn't help it XD)"

"That's a deep question. Ten years from now seems like a really different universe. No one knows the future but I can say how I've planned it out. But it can change, life's a rollercoaster. I see myself still in the music industry. Maybe opened an architecture firm? Still best friends with the girls. Still bickering with my brother and yeah that's it." I said. Oh, I didn't mention my brother? That's weird. His name is Malcolm and is a year older than me, he works as an intern in mom's office but he goes to a different school.

"I don't know. I just want to go with the flow and not worry about the future. I like to be surprised by life it gives me a reminder that I can't control it." Percy said deep in thought. Typical Seaweed Brain.

"Going with the flow scares me so my motto: Always, always have a plan." I shrugged. He chuckled and started reading the next question.

"If you weren't pop stars, what would you guys be and why? From stupidbutgreat." He said.

"Architect. Because I like architecture." I said. The real reason was something else….

"Marine Biologist. I always liked everything to do with water…and water… and things in the water." Percy added. I chuckled.

"Are you and Vicky dating? From daughterofaphrodite." Percy read out loud. We looked at each other for a moment.

"To answer that question, yes," I said smiling.

"So I guess that's it for today. See you later Markers!" I said and switched off the camera. I rubbed my eyes. These contacts were killing me. (So, I know I didn't mention when she changed into her disguise but just roll w/it) I immediately walked into the bathroom leaving Percy in the room and took them off. I put them back in their case and when I went back into the room I saw him on his phone.

"So… We're done studying?" He asked still looking at his phone.

"Yeah. Let's go downstairs, I forgot my phone there." I said suddenly remembering I left my phone on the island in the kitchen.

"Hm." He said and got up and went out through the door with me trailing behind him. We walked downstairs to find everyone in the living room. Tomorrow was a Monday, which meant school. I was tired. I excused myself saying I needed a nap and went back up to my room. This time making sure I locked the door.

Percy:

Annabeth said she needed a nap and went back up to her room. I sat next to Leo on the couch. They were watching Harry Potter. I decided to go through my phone instead.

"So what were you guys up to?" Leo asked wiggling his eyebrows.

"Nothing. We were studying and we did a Q&A video because of this publicity stunt the twins asked us to pull off." I said looking at him.

"Really?" He asked, with a mischievous glint in his eyes.

"Really," I said and went back to looking at my phone. I looked around the room. Thalia and Nico were sitting together on a loveseat, I think, talking about something. Jason and Piper were playing chess. Frank and Hazel was playing Uno. Leo and Calypso was bickering at each other. What a peaceful sight. I sighed. Then I remembered Rachel. I texted her. (Rachel, Percy)

hi :)

I texted and waited for a few minutes.

hey

what r u up to?

painting

do you wanna hang out tomorrow?

i think i have a rally to attend to tomorrow but i can make time, where to?

paintball?

you're on, after school?

Yeah

K

I sighed and put my phone back in my pocket. The others seemed too engrossed in themselves and no one seemed to be paying attention to the movie. I felt bad for the movie so I started watching it. Halfway through the movie, Artemis called us through the speakers.

"Kids, lunch." And that was it I instantly stood up, I forgot how hungry I was. I scrambled out of the living room before any of the others did and sat down at the table waiting for the food. Slowly everyone came in. Annabeth yawned and rubbed her eyes. I was trying so hard not to laugh at her hair. She sat across me, between Leo and Piper.

Apollo and Artemis came in bickering with each other. I sighed, since when did they not fight?

"Break it up!" Annabeth ordered, in a motherly tone. To our surprise, they did and moved to each corner of the table.

Time skip

Annabeth:

"Guys? I think you all might wanna see this." I said looking at an envelope I got from the mail. I walked into the living room. It has been 2 months since we started high school and since when I announced me and Percy were dating. Percy was hanging out Rachel, who turned out to be pretty nice.

I was happy for him, and yes, Rachel knew that we were The Demigods and that Percy and I dating was a publicity stunt. We rarely went out so we didn't need to act as a couple. I'm grateful for that.

"What is it?" Thalia asked eyeing the envelope in my hand. She was sitting on Nico's lap. They told us they were dating a few weeks back. I opened the envelope.

Dear

Thalia Grace, Jason Grace, Perseus Jackson, Nico di Angelo, Piper McLean, Annabeth Chase, Hazel Levesque, Leo Valdez, Calypso Titan, and Frank Zhang.

You are all invited to the Annual Olympus Gala and claiming ceremony on 14th of November at Olympus State Palace, 20th Olympus Street, Washington. This year's theme is Masquerade. There will be games, music, and fun. You are expected to arrive at 7 p.m. with your dates.

Yours truly,

Signed

Zeus Jupiter.

Owner of Olympus Corp.

I finished. We were shocked for a minute. Let me clear something for you guys.

Olympus Corp. is the biggest business in the whole world. It owns everything. In Olympus Corp., there are many other businesses but most of its money comes from the big three, Zeus, Hades and Poseidon. Percy's dad Posiedon was dead, but most people say he was lost in the sea, even Sally says so.

Thalia and Jason's dad is Zeus, he owns the skies and the company. Poseidon owns the seas, but no one knows where he is or who is taking over. Hades owns the land and underground. Getting invited to a big event like that is just wow.

"Wow," Percy spoke out my thoughts.

"November the 14th? That's like a week from now! We need to buy our clothes and…." Piper babbled on. I was still in shock.

"….Shopping!" Piper finished. That shook me out of my shock. I stared at her in horror.

"No, no, no!" I said.

"Yes, yes, yes!" She replied giving me a look.

"Thalia, come on, give me some support." I looked at Thalia. She smiled at me.

"No. You need to get out and shop." Thalia said smugly.

"Nooooo!" I whined.

"When?" Calypso said ignoring me.

"Maybe this weekend?" Piper said and they were off planning about the Masquerade.

I sat down on the couch and whined. I hate shopping. That's one way to torture me.

"Who are you going with?" Percy asked as he sat beside me.

"Why do you care?" I asked back.

"Hey, I gotta see who I have competition over my girlfriend." He said giving me a side hug. We joke around like that. It wasn't confirmed that Rachel and Percy were dating. They go out on dates and that is pretty much it. I found myself thinking about this for some reason.

"It's not like we have much of a choice, anyway. We have to go together. You know the reporters there." I said looking at him.

"Dang it. I wanted to ask Rachel but I think she'd be invited anyway as, you know, her parents are in a contract with Olympus Corp." He said switching on the T.V.

"Oh," I replied feeling something I never felt before.

"After Piper is done with me, I don't think you'll find me," I said as he sat back on the couch.

"Oh, I will. I always do, Wise Girl." He said. I blushed.

Oh no. I'm falling for Jackson.

A/N Hello again. That's it for today's chapter. I'm not sure when my next update will be.
