Chapter 1 Josh Anderson's POV

Surviving the last couple minutes of history is the hardest task I've done in my life. History was definitely my worst class of the day. You see none of my friends are in my history class. It just gets even harder as my brain wanders to what is gonna happen after class. Just thinking about spending the rest of the day with Annabeth makes me giddy. She's the absolute coolest girl in the world! She's that one student that corrects teachers, and she doesn't even make a big deal out of it! Take into account her deep tan, mesmerizing grey eyes, and long blonde hair she was easily the most gorgeous girl in the entirety of San Francisco. My crush on her? Very obvious. Annabeth and I have been best of friends since freshman year. I know her like the back of my hand and vise versa. I do sometimes get romantic feelings from her, but I keep them to myself. I'm too nervous to ask her out because I don't want to lose my best friend.

The guy next to me breaks his pencil, snapping me out of my daydream. I look up at the board to see telling us about where to turn in our test. Yes! The end of the day is near. I start putting away my supplies as the bell rings and students start filing out. I jog over to my locker to see Annabeth waiting for me.

"Hey, how was history?" Annabeth asks me.

"Absolutely horrible, all we did was do a worksheet on class rules. Was geometry any better?"

"!t was extremely boring. gave us a pre-test which took me 10 minutes to finish. Though I did finish my architecture drawings." Another thing I loved about her, unlike most girls who were obsessed with fashion, Annabeth loved architecture.

"Nice! Are you ready to go to the diner?"

"Definitely, You're giving me a ride right?"

"Yep, I'll meet you at your locker." I smiled, today was gonna be awesome.

_Line break wants a cookie_

I pulled over my car and we walked over to our usual spot by the windows. As usual we're early, so I go over to order our usual drinks while Annabeth settles in. When I come back Jordan is waving her hands about and screaming stuff excitedly, while Annabeth and Charlie laugh at her. Probably talking about some hot new guy. You see her mother is the Principal's secretary, so Jordan gets to know about new students before any of us.

As I walk up to them and hand them their drinks. "Are the rest coming today?"

"I know that Sean isn't, he told me at the soccer sign ups" Charlie replies, taking a sip of his orange soda. "It's your week to pay Josh"

"I know, you've reminded me all day! Jeez" I say plopping down next to Jordan. "What were you guys talking about?"

" Jordy here says there's another hot guy coming to school tomorrow" Charlie replied, rolling his eyes hard.

"But you guys don't understand! The guy looks like he's a half-god!" Jordan squealed in excitement.

"I'm right here you know!" Charlie protested.

"Even if you weren't essentially trying to cheat on Charlie, I doubt he could look like a half-god" Annabeth had a dreamy face, like she was thinking of a real half-god.

"Calling someone hot doesn't mean I wanna date them! You'll see tomorrow, I'm gonna prove myself!"

"Uh-huh, sure"

"Humph"

_Time skip to Tuesday at school_

Another day at Hillside High! Another day of doing tests on school rules, even though we memorized them last week. Yay! I walk over to locker 367, enter in 23-45-1, and the lock pops open with a satisfying click. As I'm putting my stuff away, Annabeth and Jordan come up to me with their ELA books.

"Good morning Josh, ready for ELA?" Jordan said. Annabeth winced at the thought of ELA. Even though she gets amazing grades in every subject , she has ADHD and Dyslexia.

"Uhh, I hate ELA, I finished the book two days ago!" I tried to sympathize with Annabeth. I bet she liked knowing I hated ELA too. I smirked at the knowledge that she was falling for me a bit everyday.

"Seriously!? I'm- Oh my god it's the new kid! See he is sooo hot!" Jordan was basically bouncing up and down in excitement. I saw Annabeth roll her eyes, before I turned to look where Jordan was looking. She was right, I mean I'm completely straight since I've already found my soulmate (Annabeth), but the guy was someone I would totally date if I was female. He had messy black hair, green eyes that looked exactly like the ocean, a swimmers figure, and tan skin.

He ignored all the girls wooing at him and made his way towards us. He was smiling mischievously and looking straight at Annabeth. Schist!(Annabeth says it) another lowly jock trying to hit on my girl. He came up behind Annabeth and swung an arm around her shoulder. He touched my future girlfriend. I was so gonna kill him if Annabeth didn't first.

"Mis- Wahh!" his words were cut short as Annabeth grabbed his arm and slammed him into the lockers. She then used the momentum she gained from spinning to drive her elbow into his gut. Now most guys would usually be on the ground after Annabeth's treatment. Unfortunately for the new guy, he wasn't so he got part two of Annabeth's treatment.

Annabeth turned to face him "You little slimeba-" Suddenly Annabeth's eyes widened in recognition, her hands flew to her mouth as she dropped her books. She stared at the guys smirking face. They stared at each other for a couple seconds when Annabeth reached out her hand to touch the guys face.

Annabeth smiled wider than I'd ever seen her and basically screamed " Oh My Gods! Percy you're actually here!" She tackled him in a hug. The guy just hugged back and whispered to her 'I missed you too, Wise Girl"

What the hades just happened!?
