A/N: So here's the second chapter! Enjoy!

Thalia and I were sprawled on our living room couch looking at his photos. I don't know why but I felt that I had seen him before and while that might be explainable what was even weirder was that I felt like I knew him from somewhere. But that was impossible, I had never met him and even if I had and I don't remember it, the organization would have never assigned me to him.

"Hey, Annie show his profile, would you?" Thalia says. I hate it when people call me that. It's not like I'm against nicknames or anything but I like my full name - Annabeth - much better. I open my laptop and click on his bio sent by the organization .

Name: Perseus Jackson / likes to be called Percy

Age: 17

D.O.B: 16th August

Appearance: Green eyes, black messy hair, tall, athletic build.

Personality: Hostile, rude, seems depressed, likes to bully others

School: Goode High; Year: Senior

Hobbies: Swimming, Movie-making, Music

Extra: Got kicked out of several schools in the past, messy family life, has ADHD and dyslexia

I narrow my eyes. That can't be right.

"Huh, seems like you're gonna have a hard time making friends with him. I can't believe that he's in my year and I didn't notice him! " She remarks

" Yeah, but I think that the personality part is wrong. When I finally tracked him down, he was with his friends and he was really happy and he looked like, you know, a really good mood." I say. Thalia raises her eyebrows quizzically.

" Seriously?" She asks. I nod my head. "Well since the organization can't give wrong information, I guess that he has a hard time making new friends and is comfortable with the ones he has. Or it could also be that he has a hard time opening up to others, so when someone asks a question, he closes up immediately and come off as rude and hostile. As for the bullying part, I really don't know about that. Although it might be distantly related with a messy family life, I think we can know what he goes through in that way. Plus all that might even relate to why he got kicked out of so many schools other than his ADHD"

She's completely on track from what I see. Her theory covered all the points and makes a lot of sense too. It's too bad she doesn't like school that much because she's really smart. We sit in silence for a while, contemplating these facts. It changes our views from before and gives us both an advantage and a disadvantage. Advantage: We can relate to him in several ways e.g- family. Disadvantage: It's going to be really hard to gain his trust so I can enter his friend circle.

I break the silence first, " So, what's for dinner?". That creates a lengthy argument. Not about the food we're going to order, we've already created a schedule for that-today's Chinese- but about where we're going to order it from. Thalia wants to order it from Mainland China just because they have fortune cookies and I taking the more sensible side say that we should order it from because the food is equally good and it's not that expensive. The only thing it doesn't have is fortune cookies. Besides everything in M.C is double the actual price. In the end Thalia wins but that's only because she promised to buy me a double scoop, cookies and cream ice-cream with loads of toppings. She better keep that promise or she's going to get it.

It's 10:30 by the time I'm on my bed. I stare at the ceiling and the glow-in-the-dark stars look back at me. I got this weird idea to put goggly eyes on them and that's just how it remained. I couldn't sleep, I just had the feeling that I knew Percy before but I've never met him. Then there was this sort of connection I was feeling with him, like I knew everything about him. It was….quite unsettling. After tossing and turning for quite a while, I fell asleep with one though on my mind- I would talk to him tomorrow no matter what and find out why this was happening.
