Chapter 5
Annabeth straightened up abruptly. "I don't know what just happened." She laughed nervously. "I'm really tired-I'm going to go sleep on the couch." She stood up and left the room, calling "Wake me up when he wakes up!"
She sighed in relief, happy to be out of such a crazy situation. Then she turned around.
Thalia was watching Annabeth with a smirk on her face.
"You like him, don't you." Thalia accused.
"Um, maybe. But it's none of your business." Annabeth laughed nervously.
"No, no! I'm happy for you! My little Annie has a crush!" Thalia hugged Annabeth so hard she felt like her organs were being squeezed out.
"Don't...call...me...Annie," she choked, wiggling out of Thalia's tight grip.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a movement in the shadows. When Annabeth walked closer to investigate, she saw Percy, awake and alive.
"Where am I? What happened?" he asked, his voice think with confusion.
"You're at my house," Thalia explained. "Annabeth brought you here after you quit your band."
"I quit my band? This is all a mistake!" Percy frowned. "Take me back to them."
"Well...you see...we can't exactly do that." Annabeth's voice was gentle and kind, but that didn't make Percy any happier.
"Why not?" he asked roughly.
"Look." Thalia showed him her phone screen. Every news channel had something to say.
"Percy Jackson and Crew are dead!"
"The famous boy band will never be together again"
"Why can't we reform?" Percy questioned.
"Everyone thinks you're dead. You would need to settle all those rumors. It's better if you try to live life incognito, with us." Annabeth wondered how Percy would react.
"Fine." Percy said. "School starts next week?"
The girls confirmed that school did indeed start next week.
"I'm in."
