A/N: How are you guys liking this story? I see i'm some raving positive reception for my genius idea. I'm glad your enjoying this because this is where Percy and Grover step into the story. If you like it, enjoy, review, favourite, alert, i don't care. Plus, I incorporated my own original song in this chapter as a special treat. And if i haven't mentioned before; THIS STORY IS TOLD IN ANNABETH'S PERSPECTIVE, COMPLETELY IN HER POV AND NARRATIVE.
MOVIEVERSE.
DURING THE LIGHTNING THEIF (AS ALWAYS :D).
OOC ANNABETH. DO NOT BASH ME FOR MY CREATIVITY. FEEDBACK AND CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM IS WELCOME! ... That is if i actually get some :P
Chapter Four: A New Beginning:
I made it to Atlantic Heights the next day with all of my belongings. Leaving my wild life and my beloved home is the worst thing my evil dad could do to me. Maybe i should disown him or something. Isn't that smart? Ok, not really.
My Aunt Kimberly was driving her truck in her pyjamas. I was sitting in the passengers seat listening to Sum 41 on full blast with only one earbud in.
"Are you excited?" Kimberly asked
"No" I responded rudely
"Things will turn around for you, sweetie" Kimberly responded
"Aunt Kim, I'm not 5 anymore" I snarled
Kimberly sighed.
"Your father sent you out here because you need to be taught a lesson. Your mother did this when she was your age and now you're just like her and your father has made it quite clear that he's not impressed" Kimberly explained
"That means i've done my job right" I remarked
"Not quite. And besides, you're going to like it here.. and infact, my older cousin Sally Jackson has a son about your age.. Percy Jackson" Kimberly stuttered lightly
"With that kind of a name, i should've brought a chew toy" I retorted
"He's actually pretty cute" Kimberly said
"Yeah, sure" I snarled
"If you don't believe me, then i'll introduce you to him" Kimberly suggested
"That's okay, i'll just find him myself" I remarked
"Go to the boardwalk, that where him and his best friend, Grover Underwood hang out" Kimberly responded
"I'll find my way around here" I responded
"Good, and once your attitude adjusts, you can go home to your father and go back to school" Kimberly said
'This gives me the perfect idea, I'll meet Percy, pop a few shots, party, have sex with Percy, pretend to be good and then i have a first class ticket back to Miami whereas i can go back to my old life and school with all of my best friends. I can go back to being the Drug addicted, party going, sex addicted drunk that i am today. THIS IS PERFECT! As long as My dad and Aunt Kim don't find out or else i'm stuck here forever.'
*20 Minutes later*
Aunt Kim and I finally arrived at what i thought was a nice 2 storey house which actually turned out to be a farm. Ok? What the fuck? I've never lived on a farm before. I got out of the truck and dropped my jaw in shock.
"What the..?" I remarked
"I live on a farm Annabeth. Your father told me that you were expecting a huge beach house or something like that" Kimberly explained
I groaned as I grabbed all of my bags out of the back of the truck and placed them on the porch.
"Can i go to the boardwalk?" I asked
"Yes" Kimberly replied
I walked through the field and made my way to the boardwalk by a beach that had these teenagers all over the place. I look over and there he was, Percy Jackson. Handsome, 16, Do-able, Friendly and Kind. He was standing beside this guy named Grover Underwood that Aunt Kimmy was telling me about.
"Who is this guy?" I asked myself as i glared at Percy
I shrugged and placed the earbuds in my ear and started listening to Evanescence. Grover looked over at me and was confused.
"Percy, look!" Grover exclaimed as he slapped his shoulder
Percy the looked over at me clutching onto my handbag and feeling nervous.
"Who is that girl?" Percy asked himself impressively
"I have no clue, all i know is that she's hot but kind of emo" Grover responded
I walked over to a Strawberry Cheescake stand and ordered something to eat. Yes, i haven't eaten all day.
"One medium shortcake please?" I asked politely as i pulled out $15 dollars out of my wallet.
The guy handed me my strawberry shortcake.
"Thank you" I said as i walked away and took a bite out of my cheesecake
I walked around the boardwalk until I noticed a stage with a some girl singing an original song. I looked over and saw a sign that said "Karaoke Night". I shrugged and hestiantly signed up for it anyways. I need to get noticed around here and maybe find a nightclub or something.
"Thank you Angelica" The judge said
Angelica walked off the stage. I looked around and there he was again. This time he was looking at me.
'I am seriously freaking out here, he keeps staring at me which is freaky. I don't mind Travis staring at me but not him'
"And next up, Annabeth Chase!" The judge announced
I walked up on stage, dropped my bag on the floor and the band started playing. I took a deep breath and started singing my own original song.
Don't Play
Don't Play
Because i'm not running around
Don't Move
Don't Move
Because i'm not hearing a sound
Don't test me baby
Because i'm onto your game
Listen up
Because i'm ready to fight
Make it worth your while
And just steal my heart
Rock the boat and
just move to the beat
Run like crazy
And make my day today
Just look around
And all i see is you
Baby
Just let it go baby
And walk like a man
Don't let it bother you
And sting like hell
Don't try to test me
Or you better run fast
Don't test me baby
Because i'm onto your game
Listen up
Because i'm ready to fight
Make it worth your while
And just steal my heart
Rock the boat and
just move to the beat
Run like crazy
And make my day today
Just look around
And all i see is you
Baby
Make my day
And kiss me like a man
Just find a place
Where we can be alone
And watch me make my moves
On you
Rock the boat and
just move to the beat
Run like crazy
And make my day today
Just look around
And all i see is you
Baby
Rock to the beat
Oh
Rock to the beat
And move like hell
Once i finished, i grabbed my handbag and walked off the stage and raced home as fast as i could. That black haired boy chased after me.
"WAIT!" Percy yelled
I stopped for a minute and felt confused.
"What?" I asked rudely
"You were great up there" Percy complimented
"Thanks. That is the last time i ever sing" I said
"Why?" Percy asked
"Once my mom died, i swore i would never sing again" I said
"Allow me to introduce myself, I'm Percy Jackson" Percy introduced
"Annabeth Chase" I introduced
I walked away from him hastily and raced back home leaving him there by himself.
