I don't think I said what year of high school they are in, but they are in their Junior year. The girls became a band in freshman year.
Disclaimer: I don't own Percy Jackson.
Percy's POV This is going to be fun. (Monday, September)
It's been 2 years. I haven't seen the girls in 2 years. That is, I haven't seen them in person for 2 years. Of course, I've seen them in magazines (not that I read magazines or anything), the News, Talk Shows, concerts, stuff like that.
But it's not the same.
I guess I deserve it. All of us do. Me, Jason, Nico, and Frank deserved it. We were assholes.
Even though I know we deserve it, it hurts. It especially hurts that they write their songs about us. Just yesterday, I was scrolling through YouTube and saw in the "Trending" section that The Demigods (The girls) had posted a new video, so I clicked it. It looked like they were at a new interview or something. The song was about us! Honestly, I hope Rachel cheats on me too. She's changed from the person I used to know in the 7th grade: Art loving, environment caring, redhead, who I may or may not have had a tiny crush on. But she was nothing compared to Annabeth. Annabeth looks as if the word beauty took form as a human.
I loved her. Just like Jason loved Piper. And Nico loved Thalia. And Frank loved Hazel.
I've lost SO much sleep at night with my brain wondering, 'Then WHY did you hurt her? You KNEW what you were doing!' I've never had an answer. 'She probably doesn't even think about you any more.'
Rachel snapped me out of my thoughts.
"Hey, Percy-boo," Rachel threw herself on top of me in a way that made me uncomfortable.
"Oh... yeah. Hey-hey Rachel," I tried to be excited but her emerald eyes just weren't the same, they were hungry.
"I'll, uh, see you after class," I said, I despised learning, but anything to get away from Rachel was fine by me.
"Ugh! Class is SUCH a waste of time!"
"Yeah, yeah, it is."
"Are you okay, Percy-boo?"
"Yeah, I'm fine, RED," I said, using her nickname. That seemed to satisfy her because she walked away swaying her hips.
I meet up with Jason, Frank, and Nico. Our lockers happened to be next to each other. I shuddered from my encounter with my "girlfriend".
"You okay, Perce?"
"Yeah, just ran into Rachel," I sighed.
"Same"
"Me too"
"Sadly" We all hated our girlfriends.
"WHY do we date them again?" Frank asked.
"Well... It has to be because- because... I don't know. We lost the girls to them. Guess we have to make it count. Even if we are dating Satin's daughters," Jason said.
"That doesn't make sense!" I complained. I could've confessed my love for Annabeth already and, maybe, we might have been dating by now!
"He's saying," Nico said, "this is what we gave up the girls for."
"I still can't believe that," Frank said.
I sighed. "Neither can I."
Mr Brunner's Greek/Latin Class
I really do hate school, but I like one class and one class alone: Mr Brunner's Greek/Latin class. Mr Brunner os the best. He's a middle-aged man, with thinning brown hair, bush eyebrows, warm brown eyes, and a scruffy beard. Did I also mention that he's in a wheelchair? Didn't seem to matter, Mr Brunner doesn't let that stop him. Even some of the moody-er kids *cough, Nico, cough* like Mr Brunner's class. I mean, who wouldn't? The guy lets us have tournaments to learn and has real Greek and Roman battle armour. I've had Mr Brunner for... since freshman year. And Me, Jason, Nico, and Frank all have it at the same time.
In the middle of class, we were doing a mandatory test about Greek gods and their Roman counterparts, or vice versa. Easy. I had finished my test and was putting my head down thinking, Maybe I could sleep the rest of the class. When the door opened. I didn't pick my head up, assuming it was just another teacher asking Mr Brunner something. My teachers do this all the time, it's annoying. When some kids gasped.
I heard whispers and no more pencils scribbling. I looked up finally when Mr Brunner said, "Ah. Girls. You've decided to come back?" The tone of his voice was playful. What girls? THE girls?
No, it couldn't be them.
But what if it IS them?
No, way.
All that went through my mind as I sat up.
It was them! My heart felt like it was floating up to the heavens. Then it got grounded again.
You HAVE a girlfriend.
I'll dump her. Annabeth is way better.
I looked over the others. Jason's eyes looked like saucers and his mouth was hanging wide open, Nico was trying to not look at Thalia and Frank was staring at Hazel longingly. The girls looked at each of us and glared. That broke my heart.
"Please, take seat girls," Mr Brunner said after they had all hugged him. They must have a special connection with him.
Lucky for us guys, the only seats available were next to us. The girls scowled and took a seat next to us. Annabeth next to me, Piper to Jason, Thalia to Nico, and Hazel to Frank. I looked over and saw Nico holding his breath. The girls all sat down nest to us without a word. There were a lot of stares and pointing, and cell phones taking pictures.
"Are they..."
"The Demigods?"
"No way."
'Why would they come here?"
They ignored all this and sat down.
"Wise Girl?" Even to me, my voice was unsure, I thought I was hallucinating. Annabeth didn't answer to her nickname, just stared straight ahead.
I heard Nico, Frank, and Jason trying the same thing.
"Haze?" Frank. Does Hazel have a nickname? I've heard of Miss Metal Detector but I didn't like that one.
"Beauty Queen?" Jason.
"Pinecone Face?" Nico.
None of the girls even gave us a second glance.
After Class
I went to my locker, only to find that the girls were next to ours. This is my chance! I conveyed that message to the others.
Let's do this!
Then I got nervous.
She's gonna hate you!
Probably.
"Hey, uh, A-A-Annabeth?" I turned into a stuttering dork.
"What is it, Jackson?" I wasn't expecting her to reply!
Oh, gods! What do I do now?! So I stood there.
I stood there while she walked off with the other girls.
It seemed the others didn't have much luck either.
"Great," Frank slumped against a locker. "The girls came back and they're still mad!" He slapped his face with his hand.
"Thalia won't even look at me," Nico moaned.
"We have to start trying harder." Jason declared.
"Jason's right," I concurred.
Then I saw something truly horrifying.
Our 'girlfriends'.
So, that was the third chapter.
How do you guys like it?
Please review.
KEEP BEING AWESOME,
