Rosalie POV

"So that went well!" Alice sang out loud as she did a little twirl, standing next to the counter. Behind her stood Jasper who was hugging her tightly. "You didn't kill him!"

I wanted to rub my forehead. This wasn't what I needed right now. The scent of him still intoxicated me and part of me wanted to go back to his house just to smell him once more. "I need to hunt before tomorrow." I murmured quietly as I closed the door behind me. The gentle click of the door seemed to echo throughout the house. Even with all the mixed scents within the room, the lingering of his still shined above all else.

There was something different about his smell. Everything about it reminded me about him and I wanted to go back to him, talk to him. I yearned for him, just as Alice said I would.

Damnit Alice.

Percy Pov

There was a sharp breeze that entered my room the morning I woke up. I hadn't realized it but I had left the window to my room wide open. My eyes peered down from my bed to the alarm clock next to me. A sharp 5:00 In the morning read and I wanted to groan out loud. School here in Forks Washington didn't start until about eight which confused me as to why I had woken up so early.

Despite it all, I got up from my bed. Years of being a demigod and having to be on the run took away the grogginess I felt whenever I woke up from my sleep. Once I was up, I was wide awake and there was nothing changing that.

A light snore caught me off guard until I realized that it had been just Mrs. O'Leary who was snoring softly. It was clear to me that I still was not accustomed to the whole living with just a dog idea. Walking downstairs, I gently went to the kitchen to make some food for Mrs. O'Leary and I. I had a few hours before I had to get going to the school and it wouldn't do me any good to not be ready for my first day of school. With an entirely new group of people that I hadn't met before. First impressions were a key to a successful life after all.

As if on cue, Mrs. O'Leary trotted into the kitchen once I finished making breakfast and patiently waited by her food bowl. Looking expectedly at me. I couldn't help the small chuckle that escaped my throat. There was something about the way that she acted when around me. It was as if she was my own little bodyguard that was paid in food. Scratching behind her ear softly, I dumped her food into her container which she happily munched on.

A light knock at the door shocked me from my thoughts for just a moment. Putting the last of my food on my plate and turning off the stove. I washed my hands quickly and walked to the front door. Opening the door I was shocked to see Rosalie standing at the front door looking slightly nervous. "Rosalie?" I couldn't quite keep the shock out of my voice.

She smiled faintly at me, "Hello Percy, I'm sorry to intrude on you so early this morning."

I waved my hands frantically. "It's no worries! What brings you here this morning?" I probably shouldn't have been talking to Rosalie so early in the morning. Despite not being groggy did not stop the fact that I would mess up in front of arguably the most beautiful girl I had ever met.

"I was wondering if you were wanting a ride this morning? To school?" Her eyes peered up at me and for a moment I forgot how to breathe. The only thing I could focus on was the sparkling golden eyes that seemed to dazzle me. For a moment my body refused to move at all until she snapped me out of it, "Percy? Are you alright?"

I let out an awkward laugh, quite embarrassed that I had been caught staring at her. "Sorry about that, I was just feeding Mrs. O'Leary and I realized how early it was in the morning it all." It was true. It was only 6 o'clock and part of me wondered why she had been here to early. "Would you like to come in for a bit?"

She flashed a slight smile and nodded. "If that would be alright with you." I blinked for a moment. There was something so intoxicating about the way that she acted around me. "Um, yeah. Of course. I invited you." Turning away for a moment I called throughout the house. "Mrs. O'Leary? Come here girl!" At once the familiar trotting echoed through the house as she wormed her way through my leg and the door.

Getting down to my knees. I shook her fur playfully for a few moments. "This is Mr's O. Leary. The most lovable dog you will ever meet."

There was a tinge of fear that graced her features before it was replaced with mild curiosity. Hesitantly she leaned down and reached her hand downwards towards Mrs. O'Leary. At once Mrs. O'Leary bounded up and shoved her head into Rosalie's hand in a blink of an eye. It was clear that she was already falling in love with Rosalie.

Rosalie almost drew back at how fast Mrs. O'Leary moved. One moment Rosalie was ready to pet the loveable puppy and the next she received the face of said puppy.

It took a few moments but it was clear she slowly fell in love with Mrs. O'Leary. After a few moments of soft petting, his puppy began to lick the hand of Rosalie until she slowly withdrew it and stood up. Happy that she got her attention for the day, Mrs. O'Leary turned around and trotted back into the house, no doubt ready to finish the rest of her food.

"Well…" I trailed off for a moment as we both watched Mrs. O'Leary enter the house. "Want to come in?"

I took note of how her eyes seemed to light up with a tint of happiness and relief. "Sure." She responded. Backing up from the door, I allowed her room to enter the door and once she was inside I let the door close with a soft click.

I looked around the room and just like the day before I took note of how little and bare it seemed to be within the room. "Well, it isn't much but its home!" I exclaimed with slight happiness as I stared into the living room, cursing myself twice now in twenty-four hours that I didn't have enough furniture for the two of us to talk. The love seat was the only thing in the room with the tv and no doubt didn't look to be that exciting. "Sorry I planned on getting a chair or something soon." I apologized to her.

There was a slight curl at the top of her lip as she looked at the room. "There's no need to rush, it feels quite… Well, I feel at the sea right now." She admitted as she stared at the room. "I can't really explain it."

A slight shiver went down my spine, unable to be contained. "Really?" I asked, my voice breaking at the end of it.

Either not noticing or not caring that my voice broke, she nodded. "Yes, it makes me feel comforted. I like it."

I gave her a tighter smile then I meant. "I'm glad." Eager to change the subject I walked into the kitchen. I let out a cough to clear my throat. "Can I get you anything to eat?"

She smiled at me but shook her head. Her bright golden eyes seemed to brighten up the room despite the ungodly hour it was. "Thank you but I ate before coming over here. Today is the big day though for you. Might as well get some carbs in." She joked lightly.

I couldn't help the light laugh the escaped my mouth. There was something so joyful about being around Rosalie. I had only known her for a day now but it was almost as if something was pulling me to her. Weird.

"Are you sure?" I asked one last time as I began to crack open an egg and began to make scrambled eggs.

Before she could respond I felt a light nudge at my foot and looked down to see Mrs. O'Leary breathing heavily and happily. Looking up to me as if asking for more food. "You already ate." My words only made her smile happier as she continued to wait as she looked up to me. After a few seconds, she began to paw lightly on my foot, wondering when it was coming.

Sighing to myself I gave in to the big puppy eyes as I reached into the cupboard and pulled out a dog treat. Her tail began to shake all over the kitchen until I tossed it into the air and she grabbed it with ease. Turning back to Rosalie I gave an uneasy smile. "Sorry about that."

Looking more amused than anything, she gave out a laugh that sounded like velvet to my ears. "Yes well, it happens. I'm sure she is happy now though."

I nodded as I quietly began to make my eggs. While I did have some time before school started for the day I did have to go get my schedule for the day. "Anything I should know about before I go to school today?" I asked her, looking up to her.

She gave a light shrug to me. "Well, you are a new student in a small town so be prepared to be popular within mere moments of walking into school. The teachers are relatively nice and everyone knows each other." She squinted her eyes for a moment with a slightly glassy look in her eyes before it quickly disappeared.

I pressed my lips together. Being the popular student within the school had never really been my forte. While I did like to have all my friends with me being stared at from afar seemed to be off to me. There was something upsetting with drawing attention and while I wasn't no Nico, having a little privacy was rather beneficial. "Well what happens, happens." I joked lightly to myself.

A comfortable silence grew between us as I made my eggs. Mrs. O'Leary quickly trotted over to the couch behind where Rosalie was standing and quickly began to snore which seemed to echo through the house. I wasn't able to stop the slight snort that escaped my lips. She sure loved to relax around strangers she barely knew. "Are you sure I can't get you anything?"

The barest hints of a smile were on her face as she rolled her eyes. "Relax Percy and just eat your breakfast."

"I'm just asking." I held my hands up in defense and she rolled her eyes once more, looking more amused than anything.

Once I finished making my huevos rancheros for the morning I quickly walked over to the small two-person table in the kitchen and beckoned for Rosalie to join me. Before I could even beckon her forth she seemed to get the message and sat down next to me in the kitchen. It actually happened faster then I could anticipate and I blinked lightly at her reaction time then shrugged it off. Wasn't hard to see where someone was going after they made food.

My eyes glanced up at the clock, it was only half an hour past six which gave me plenty of time to finish eating and talk to Rosalie. "So how is Forks high school? Does anything exciting happen there?" I asked, trying to make conversation.

Rosalie frowned as she looked at me. While she wasn't frowning at me and I could tell she was thinking, it was a bit unnerving to see. After a moment she came out of it and shook her head lightly. "Nothing too exciting. It is like any other high school that you end up going too."

My thoughts instantly drifted to the empousa cheerleaders who tried to murder me in cold blood for being an enemy of Kronos."...Right. Like any other high school." My tone turned slightly bitter near the end of it.

"Percy?" She asked instantly, her eyes showed curiosity, no doubt wondering where my tone came from. "Are you alright?"

I let out an awkward laugh. "It's nothing. I'm just ADHD and Dyslexia is all. School isn't exactly my forte, to be honest." I rubbed the back of my head. While it wasn't exactly the full truth it was good enough. How was I supposed to tell her that I've gotten expelled from almost all of the schools I've been in? That would have been embarrassing.

She gave me a look for a moment but decided not to comment. Whether if it was from the uneasy smile or the uneasy glance that I showed she decided not to comment. "I am sure I will be able to help you."

"Really?" I asked uncertainly, trying to keep the uneasy edge filled with a bit of excitement out of my voice.

She smiled at my enthusiasm. Which means I was unable to keep it down. "Yes really. Now I think it's time to get going, don't you?"

My apologies for this being shorter than normal. I wanted to divide the first day of school but have a little more interaction I guess? The chapter will hopefully be a bit more. Cheers!
