Chapter 2: Percy's POV
After class ended, Sarah and I made our way to the cafeteria. I learned more about her while we talked.
She was really nice. She wasn't like any of the other girls in school. She didn't flirt when we talked. She laughed for real when I told her a joke, and she didn't mind if people stared or glared at her.
And I really liked that about her. I liked her, as a friend.
We reached the cafeteria in less than five minutes. And lined up to get our food, fortunately the line wasn't that long.
When we found the end of the line I leaned in and whispered in Sarah's ear,
"Me first,"
I ran and towards the end of the line before she even understood what I meant.
When she did, her eyes grew and she stared at me accusingly.
"Percy!"
She ran and lined up behind me, and in mock anger she said,
"Percy, haven't you ever heard of the saying 'Ladies first'?"
I looked at her and laughed.
"Actually Sarah I have, but in my world, it's more known as 'Percy is first'"
She rolled her eyes and I stuck my tongue out at her, then we both laughed.
After we got our food we went to my lunch table, later, my friends started coming. When they were all there, I introduced Sarah to everyone else.
"Okay everyone this is Sarah, she's new here."
She gave a small wave and a smile. Everyone greeted with a bunch of hi's, and what's up.
"Sarah this is Jake and his girlfriend Lori,"
"Louis and Erin,"
"Will, and that's Mike."
Will smirked, "So Percy, is this your oh-so-perfect girlfriend, Annabeth Chase?"
I glanced at Sarah and saw her almost choking on a grape she was about to swallow. Her cheeks were red.
"No! Like I told you, Annabeth lives in San Francisco and… Sarah's… just a friend."
"Are you sure?" Will teased. He was twirling his straw around with his finger and he was smiling obnoxiously.
Seeing my uncomfort, Louis was able to change the subject.
"So anyway, Sarah, where are you from?"
"Well, I used live in San Francisco and I used to study there too, but my dad earned this huge promotion from work so we moved to New York."
"So, California girl huh?" Will asked.
Mike and Will hi-fived, and soon we were all laughing.
A few minutes later, I was about to stand up from my chair to buy diet coke when mike pushed me to sit back down.
"Mike! What was that for?"
"Careful Percy, it's Bea. And I can tell she's looking for you." He replied, pointing at her.
Bea had straight dark hair, makeup- no, too much makeup, lip gloss layering, and she was carrying a pink bag while she paraded across the room with a couple of other girls.
Unfortunately, because of that incident of standing up, she found me.
"Percy! There you are! I've been looking all over for you!" She was batting her eyes furiously, and for once I was actually worried her eyes would fall off their sockets.
"Uh, hi Bea."
There were no more chairs in our table, and I was grateful. Mike and Sarah were seated on both sides of me. And I could tell Bea was annoyed.
"Percy," she sighed desperately, "as my future boyfriend you would have greeted me better and you could have at least kissed me."
Kiss? Kiss Bea Diamond? I'd rather battle Kronos all over again than kiss her. And I can swear to you, on the River of Styx, that me and Bea Diamond will never ever happen. Not a chance.
"Bea, I already told you, I'm not your boyfriend, and I already have a girlfriend."
She rolled her eyes.
"Of course you do Percy, see you in class. Boyfriend."
She stood up and glared at Sarah. "You should be careful about who you stay with, hon." Finally, she left and paraded out with the rest of her group.
"That girl, definitely has issues." Sarah mumbled.
