Chapter 14

Percy Jackson

Annabeth looked, how can I put this? Absolutely flawless! She looked so casual but gorgeous, in a pair of dark ripped jeans, grey tee and hoodie. Her curls were taunting me, making me want to play with them, the way she had done her makeup made her storm eyes pop out and give me that intense look that I had grown to love.

"W-wow!" I stuttered, I probably looked like a huge idiot, standing there with my mouth wide open, gaping. But you can't blame me, when a guy sees his girlfriend look absolutely stunning when she's trying to look casual, well, it's hard for me not to look like a fool

Annabeth blushed cutely, making her tan cheeks glow a rosy red, damn I love it when she blushes! "Well, Seaweed Brain, are you going to stand there with your mouth gaping like a fish or are we going to go to school?" she asked me, playing off the slightly awkward moment like it never happened.

"Seaweed Brain? When did you come up with that?" I asked as she walked to the coat closet and pulled out a cocoa brown parka, she slipped it on and slipped her curls out from under it, letting them hang down her back, making her look like a princess.

"I don't know, you told me you've always had a thing for the ocean, when were you going to tell me about that relationship by the way, and sometimes you function like you have the brain capacity of a blade of seaweed, so in other words zero." She replied, pulling a cream colored knit beanie to cover her ears and slinging her backpack over her shoulders.

"Don't worry Wisegirl I won't let the ocean grow between us, it's intimate I swear." That got a chuckle from both Annabeth and Athena, who slid Annabeth's lunch to her from across the counter and waved us goodbye as we toted off to the elevator.


When we arrived at school there were of course many choruses of whispers and stares, Annabeth and I had only been together for a weekend, and a week before that I had just broken up with Tara, that was one factor of why we had stares, the other was of course Annabeth's new style. She practically radiated confidence as she and I walked down the hallway hand in hand, her long hair swinging elegantly behind her. Last week people would've asked me why I was dating the shyest and most nerdy girls in the whole Junior class, now when they saw her, they might've thought Annabeth was out of my league.

"I gotta go to Calculus, see you at Lunch?" she asked, quirking a blonde eyebrow at me, I knew I had no choice.

"Most definitely." I replied casually throwing her a smile, which she returned, then after kissing my cheek gently, she walked down the hall in the direction of her locker.

Leo, Calypso, Piper and Jason were all waiting expectantly at my own locker, I gave them a smile and ushered Leo off the door on which he had been leaning on.

"So, dating the tutor huh?" asked Jason, smirking, the scar from when he tried to eat a stapler as a toddler grew prominent as the skin on his lip stretched, it was then that I wished I had a stapler to staple his mouth shut.

"So, you're dating your dance instructor." I retorted, giving him a look, Piper rolled her eyes, which today were a root beer brown color, the thing about Piper McLean's eyes, they were ever-changing, from green to hazel to brown to blue, every color eye, she had.

"We started dating before he needed dance lessons." Said Piper, picking at her brown hair that was braided with feathers today.

"Remind me again why he needed dance lessons?" asked Leo, cracking up and monkey pointing at Jason, who grabbed his finger and twisted until Leo cried out in pain and Callie had to kiss it so he'd feel better.

"Dude, you know how clumsy I am. Coach Hedge made me take them so I'd have more strength and agility, hate the costumes, but hip hop is really fun actually." Replied Jason, snaking his bare arm around Piper's shoulders and pulling her into his chest.

"C'mon, we'd better get to class, I don't want to be late again because you guys had to take a sharpie to that portrait of Mrs. Wright in the hallway." Said Callie, sounding slightly irritated as she began dragging Leo in the direction of the classroom.

"Hey, they can't just hang a portrait of her and not expect a mustache ambush." I shrugged and chuckled.


I got another A assignment in Algebra with the help of my wonderful girlfriend, and I got praise on my English essay from Paul about how exceptionally well written it was.

When lunchtime had finally arrived I met up with the gang and headed to the lunchroom, I scanned the room for Annabeth and saw her with Reyna, Hazel and Frank, her other two friends who were both straight A students and on the debate team like Annabeth.

I flagged her down and went to sit at our table. Reyna, Piper, Callie, Frank, Annabeth and I all had packed lunches, so we sat down and waited for Leo, Jason and Hazel to come back with their food poisoning…whoops, sorry! I meant tuna noodle casserole.

I unwrapped my ham sandwich and began to chow down ravenously, stopping occasionally to laugh or share a story with the others, who were doing the same.

Annabeth and I took turns sneaking nibbles of food from each other's lunches. First I took a few of her pretzels, then she snagged a chunk of blue cookie from me, then we went on far enough that it looked like we traded lunches.

"So, Frank and Hazel." Asked Piper, sipping her smoothie and staring at the pair. "When did you become a thing?" the two blushed at the question, Piper was a sucker for love, her mother Aphrodite, or Dove McLean, is a romantic comedy superstar so Piper's grown up watching chick flicks and love movies her whole life.

"January last year." Replied Hazel quietly, Piper gave her a warm smile and she seemed more comfortable after that.

"And what about you Reyna? Got your eye on anyone?" asked Callie, a mischievous gleam in her eyes.

Annabeth looked at her best friend, who blushed slightly at the question.

"Okay ladies enough girl talk, save it for when you go on your group bathroom outing." Said Leo and we guys cracked up whereas the girls had matching pairs of rolling eyes, Leo also earned himself a slap on the shoulder from his girlfriend.

We dissolved into happy conversation again, and stayed that way until lunch was over.


AN: Hello to my readers! It's only been a day but I missed you! And you and you and you! –Points to random people- But anyways… This chapter was fun now wasn't it? It had some Percabeth in it, some seven action in it + Reyna and Calypso… Oh my god you guys I have so many plot twists and ideas for this story you have no idea… my friend who reads this knows one of the secrets I have in store. She's like my number one supporter on this site, and I love her, even if she gets on my nerves sometimes. She's the one who bugs me if I promise a chapter but laziness over takes me and I don't so then at school she'll yell and bug me and I end up writing a chapter the minute I get home. Even though right now it's 9:16 P.M. You know who you are, I LOVE YOU AMANDA!

But yeah, get ready for some MAJOR plot twists, I'm so evil, though you guys'll probably like them, because they're good twists. Oh I'm so excited!

Anyways, I love you all so much, make sure to review, they're what keeps this story going, that and my friend's badgering… Again… anyways, I'll see you in the next chapter.

Aloha!
