Annabeth

The next morning in school, while I was walking to class, I was immediately stopped by Thalia and Piper.

"Hey, what the hell happened to you yesterday?" Piper asked, awfully concerned by my clumsiness yesterday.

"It was nothing, I was a little distracted, anyway, are we still going shopping today?" I replied, trying my best to change the topic.

"Way to change the topic, and yes", Thalia said, rolling her eyes at me.

The bell rang just on cue, I thanked the gods. I was saved.

"Oh, I'm gonna be late, gotta run, see ya", I rushed to my classroom, and sat on my favourite seat, right next to the window.

The class was as it has always been, you would see groups everywhere, the cheerleaders, the jocks, nerds and the party freaks.

I never actually fit in these people, the only friends I had ever had were Piper and Thalia, and they always will be. The only thing I was missing in my awesome life was a boyfriend.

Well, since the chances of Luke being my boyfriend are critically low, I should just move on, right?

"Okay everyone, settle down", announced my Maths teacher, Mrs. Dodds.

She continued, "We have a new student here today, come on in, Mr. Jackson".

I dropped the pencil, my eyes wide in horror, I whispered a swear word to myself.

The guy from the café yesterday was standing near the teacher's desk. I have to admit, he looked cool though, he was wearing a Dark blue T-shirt that complimented his deep blue eyes, a black hoodie on top and black jeans. He looked smokin', I could almost feel my mouth water. All the other girls joined in my attraction towards him, giggling and smirking at him.

"Why don't you introduce yourself, ?" Mrs. Dodds asked, I could already tell she didn't like him.

"Umm, Yes, I'm Percy Jackson, I just moved here from Chicago…I guess that's it", he replied, winking at the crazy girls.

Wow, his voice is sooo—oh gracious, snap out of it, he's clearly a freaking playboy.

I shook my head. He scanned the whole room, looking for a seat, and his eyes suddenly fixed at me. He gave a huge smirk and walked towards me, I quickly turned away, only to find out, he was sitting in the seat right next to me.

WHYYYYY?!

Percy

Hah, found her, I said to myself in a sing-song voice. She was clearly embarrassed, and I liked that, Bingo, Jackson.

The whole lesson, I could see nothing other than Mrs. Dodds, the teacher glaring at me, or the plastics of the class, flirting with me with their eyes. I gave many quick glances to Annabeth Chase, but she was so concentrated on the lesson, I was surprised. The lecture was hella boring. But I found an interesting side to Annabeth. She's interesting, I thought, Definitely worth my time.

When the bell rang, I thanked the gods, finally, time to talk her. I walked up to her but she stood up and left, leaving my mouth open as it was.

Woah, no one has ever ignored me like that before. This is getting more and more interesting, I thought, grinning to myself.

I rushed outside and grabbed her arm, she jumped.

"Hey! Let me go, what's wrong with you?" she exclaimed, annoyance written all over her face.

"Oh, Sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you, just wanted to introduce myself, I also saw you at the café", I replied, clearly interested by her angriness, I dunno why though.

"I think you pretty much introduced yourself in there," Annabeth was now glaring at me.

"Right, Um listen can I-", I started, ruffling my hair with my hand on the back

"Hey Annabeth!" a voice interrupted, and I was annoyed, so I snapped my head in his direction. He was as tall as me, but he looked more like a senior, with blond hair, and a huge smile.

He didn't notice me, so I turned to Annabeth, who was called out by him only to be slapped in the face by that blush on her face. She was blushing.

I was slapped, an imaginative slap, but man did it hit hard.

This was the guy Nico was talking about, the guy that she has a crush on, Ugh, even looking at his face made me sick, I wanted to throw up, on his face even, I guess that'll smack that grin off his face.

I left angrily later, not looking back at her, but I could fell her stare on me, I could feel it.
