Thalia's POV
I'd pay money to see the look on those bitches' faces. But first, the boys.
All 8 of us were best friends, but we were each especially close to someone.
For me, that close person was Nico. We just flow together. Sometimes he can be like an annoying younger brother, but I can't deny liking him. Plus, he's hot.
At Goode, Which Is Goode
"Yo, what's your schedule say?" I asked.
"YES! Almost exactly the same!" I whooped.
"And our lockers are next to each other," Hazel observed happily.

"Cool, let's go. I miss Mr Brunner," Annabeth said.
"Me too. Maybe we wouldn't have been late if someone wouldn't have overslept," Piper threw a pointed look in my direction.
I stuck my tongue out at her. "Well, look who's teaching music," I said, pointing to our last class.
"Uncle Apollo?!" Hazel looked.
"Why would he need more money?" Annabeth asked sarcastically.
"I don't know, but now we're really late," Piper announced.
9:00?!
Yeah, we totally didn't run there. Yeah.
We got a lot of stares from kids that just didn't care about classes.
When we finally got to Mr Brunner's class, the rest of the class seemed to be doing a test.
Some kids looked up as the door opened and gasped or just stared.
"Ah. Girls. You've decided to come back," Mr Brunner said. He didn't sound surprised, just playful.
I spotted Nico and Percy trying to sleep and Jason and Frank staring at us. When Nico shot up like a bullet and our eyes locked for a second and then he refused to make eye contact again.
Get a hold of yourself, Thalia! My brain scolded me. You're here to show them. Not admire Nico! Even though he is hot, and the way his hair gets in the wind... UGH! Even my brain got sidetracked.
I glared at Nico and saw the Annabeth, Piper, and Hazel doing the same. Instead of looking at them some more, we hugged Mr Brunner and took our seats. Of course, they were next to the boys. Dammit.
I noticed a lot of whispers and stares and phones taking pictures. We ignored them.
When I sat down I saw that Nico was holding his breath. When he thought I wasn't looking, he looked at me through the corner of his eye and quickly looked away.
"Pinecone Face?" Nico breathed. Don't answer.
I looked at the girls and saw them going through the same thing with the other boys.
After Class
Great. Just great. Our lockers were next to the boys.
The boys looked at each other.
"Thals... uh, uh," Nico stuttered.
"What?!" I spat.
Nico stood there with his eyes wide and mouth open.
He looks cute like that.
Shut up.
I joined the other girls and walked away. I glanced back to see the boys talking and Frank slid down a locker with his face in his hands. They all looked miserable. Then, they went up to them.
"Hey, stop," I said, I wanted to see this.
"What?" Hazel asked.
I pointed to the scene.
"Percy-boo," Rachel's tone was rushed like she needed to get something out as she walked to Percy. "Did you notice those bitches are back?" Rachel sounded disgusted.
I smirked eternally. That's what we call you, actually. I thought.
"Oh, uh, yeah," Percy sounded uncomfortable.
"Babe, I saw you staring at that... Teresa? Toenail?" Reyna threw herself at Nico. I subconsciously growled.
Khione, Drew, and Rachel all laughed like psychopaths.
Nico shifted and laughed nervously. "She, uh, she c-couldn't be m-more beautiful than, uh, you," Nico said.
Those words cut deep.
He doesn't love you.
"They've got a lot of nerve to come back here," Khione commented.
"They probably came back here because they're so stupid they were booed right off the stage," Drew added.
"Let's go guys," Hazel's voice was like glass.
I looked around. It had seemed like we were in our own world. But a group of teenagers that were in a popular band peering around a corner in a high school tends to draw attention.
"Yeah. Don't want to miss Ms Dodds' class," Piper said sarcastically.
Ms Dodds was the math teacher that hated our existence. She was like a demon, hissing at kids when they got in trouble, things like that.
Ms Dodds' Math Class
"Look who had the decency to show up," Ms Dodds said gleefully.
"Let's see... you can sit, there!" Ms Dodds appointed us to a seat each. I was by Frank, Annabeth was next to Nico, Hazel was next to Jason, and Piper was next to Percy.
Shit.
"Thalia, I'm sorry," Percy said desperately. "Save it!" I said angrily.
"Please,-"
"NO!" I nearly shouted.
"Why won't Thalia talk to me?" I heard Nico whisper-ask Annabeth.
She scoffed. "How dense are you?" Annabeth asked incredulously.
Nico slumped in his seat.
"NO TALKING," Ms Dodds yelled.
"Now, you can tell me how I got this answer?" Ms Dodds asked, pointing to the board.
"That's wrong," Annabeth said.
"OH?! SO, YOU COME BACK HERE AND THINK YOU'RE BETTER THAN THE TEACHER?!" Ms Dodds erupted.
Annabeth calmy looked Ms Dodds in the eyes while the rest of the student cringed. Some started recording it on their phones. Probably gonna post it on Instagram: Demigods' Lead Singer Roasts Teacher Or the other way around.
Annabeth reached into her bookbag and pulled out her laptop. She typed something in quickly and turned the computer around to Ms Dodds. Annabeth had searched the problem and the screen clearly showed Annabeth was correct.
Ms Dodds fumed and suddenly slammed the laptop shut. "PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE! NOW!" She screeched.
"Why?" Hazel spoke up. "You slammed her computer. That's attempted destruction of personal property."
Ms Dodds smiled sweetly, which was definitely weird to see. What do you have up your sleeve, asshole? I thought.
"Oh, but, you can't prove that sweetie," Ms Dodds said, just as sarcastically sweet as her smile.
"Yes, she can." A voice spoke up. I whipped my head around to find Frank tapping his cell phone, which was still recording.
Ms Dodds' face was purple and red, with veins sticking out. "FINE!" She screamed. She stormed back to her desk and sat down. The rest of the class, no one uttered a word. 15 minutes of utter silence.
Except for the tapping that started. Everyone looked at the source of the noise. Percy was tapping his pen. I remembered the boys had ADHD as well. Then another noise started. Jason kept up the beat by tapping his foot. Nico started clapping rhythmically. Frank snapped his fingers here and there. Probably subconsciously, Annabeth started beatboxing. Just simple stuff really. Other kids started to join in and we were having a good time until:
"SILENCE!" Ms Dodds' voice flowed over us in waves and we all stopped.
Then the bell rang and broke the eerie silence.
Saved by the bell
"Well," Piper started
"That was..." Hazel continued and trailed off.
"Interest-" Annabeth started.
"Fucked up," I interrupted.
"Yeah," Annabeth said. I nudged her. "Were you scared?" I teased.
"HELL NO! She can't do anything to me without breaking a law!" She exclaimed.
"Jeez, calm down. I was just playing," I said.
We fell into silence after that.
"Did you guys think it was weird how Frank stood up for us?" Hazel asked. She sounded sort of dreamy like Frank was her knight in shining armour.
Piper shrugged. "I hope he shows the principal anyway."
"Me too, that had to be some kind of violation," I agreed.
"What class do we have next?" Annabeth changed the subject.
"Uh... Gym," Piper's voice descended as she went on. We all knew Annabeth's history.
Annabeth scowled. "Whatever, let's go," she said.
Was that crappy? Be honest.
Tell me if you guys/girls would like to criticize me or correct me.
I don't care if you criticize me. Any review is nice. Just don't be rude to me now that I said that.
KEEP BEING AWESOME,
