Nobody Pov (Somewhat Percy)
Percy was freaked out. Not that it was anything about his past. Or anything in the little trip terrorized him. He had fun. During the picnic, their trip to McDonalds. Percy really had fun.
No, what really terrorized him was his attraction towards Sadie Kane. He always liked her. She was so...real. A little reminder of how he himself is, or was. Percy didn't know if he was the same as before.
The troublemaker upstart hero who always ended up in the wrong places and unintentionally made it right. That was all with Annabeth. Every single heroic and not so heroic moments were all with Annabeth. Percy didn't even think there could be life without Annabeth.
But the bitter truth was, there can be. Percy knew he had to move on in life. Like everyone else did. Like Annabeth did. And the scariest thing was, every time Percy looked at Sadie, he thought, 'She's my source. She's going to pull me out of this darkness. Turn me back to myself.' And that thought scared Percy out of his mind.
Percy knew it was about time he started dating. And no one better than Sadie. But that sounded selfish. Sadie was nice to him and all, but he couldn't just walk up to her and say, "Hey, I'm having another go at dating, at which I suck by the way , and you just happen to be the lucky winner!" Yeah, that was going to happen.
Percy couldn't help himself at the picnic. Right there, sitting under the moonlight, Sadie looked angelic. Amazing, stunning, Aphrodite-ish. And when Sadie asked his reason for staring, he'd stupidly blurted out everything. Idiot!
Another reason Percy held himself back was because he didn't want anything to happen to Sadie. Although now he was in Brooklyn where monsters couldn't get to him and his heroic life wasn't following him around either, still Percy feared for Sadie's life and it was stupid of him not to fear for Annabeth's.
It was music class. Ms. Silena had given everyone homework, to write a song on their current feelings. Guess who Percy wrote about. Percy liked Ms. Silena. She reminded him of his friend Silena, not just because of her name, but because of her behavior.
Percy got into class . The seat next to Sadie was empty, so he quietly sat down there, feeling really welcome.
Oooooooooooo Line break apologizes for late updateooooooooooooooooO
Sadie pov
Percy sat next to me! Aaaaaaa! Calm down Sadie. I mean, I've known this guy for so long but I still hyperventilate every time he's around. Every freaking single time.
"Ok class. I see you all have the sheets of paper with your song on it. And I want one of you to sing it here for us. Percy dear, why don't you?" Ms. Silena said.
"Does it have to be me? I mean, I sang once before?" Percy asked/said.
"Humming doesn't count as singing. Besides, I want to see how my classes have helped you. Come on, Percy. Don't be a spoilsport." She said.
Percy ran his hand across his face, before going to the centre of the class. He cleared his throat cutely.
"Uh..ok. Not my best work...oh, what am I saying? I've never written a song before. anyway, feel free to laugh. I won't be offended." Percy said, then he started to sing.
When you come around ( A/N : wrote it by myself, review on it. Bad, good, don't care. Review)
The light hurt my eyes
I never wanted to come out into the day.
Didn't want them to see me cry
Thought pain was all that was coming my way
Locked myself in
Stayed away from the light
Started to hate Everything good and bright.
But then that sparkle in your eyes
Seemed to talk to me.
It said," You ain't doing it right.
I'll show you how to live Percy."
Why is it that when you come around
All I can hear is the sound
Of your laughter bouncing off the walls
I just want you to call My name!
When you come around.
I never had control of my life
But you make me want to change that
You make me want to be that guy
To give you what no one else has.
Hey, I'm human I know I can make mistakes.
But I want to be flawless
I'll make you smile Whatever it takes.
I'm speaking with my eyes
Can you hear me out
It won't take a lot of your time
Just want to tell you what this is about
Why is it that when you come around
All I can hear is the sound
Of your laughter bouncing off the walls
I just want you to call My name!
When you come around.
I was literally gaping with the rest of the class. Ms. Silena's expression was the funniest. Most of the girls in my class were drooling. Which reminded me to clean my drool off the floor before anyone or, oh the horror, Percy saw it.
"Percy, any musicians in your family, by any chance?" Ms. Silena asked. Percy scratched the back of his neck.
"Well, there is this long distant cousin..." He said, glancing at Eric, who was working real hard to hold in his laugh. I didn't know what that was about, but I shrugged it off since it probably was a camp thing.
What really worried me was his song. Who could he write it about? Did he find someone? He was obviously singing about after Annabeth's death, so it couldn't be about her. Then who was it? With this sick worry settling in my stomach and heart, I left for the next class, not making eye contact with Percy.
A/N: Finally! Finally! Please review guys. I'm starving for reviews.
