Chapter 2: What Just Happened?

Annabeth POV

After my shower I changed into a blue tank top and a yellow t shirt with baby blue words on it, and some short light jeans shorts. The contrast made it look pretty. I heard Percy enter the shower. Shit. I forgot my hair brush in the bathroom. If I don't brush my hair it will get all frizzy! I need to get my brush.

Should I knock? No that would be embarrassing. I can just sneak in and out in a couple of seconds… Yeah that would be better.

I carefully entered the bathroom. I was crawling so that Percy wouldn't be able to see me through the mirror. Thing is I could still see him through a part in the curtain. He was grabbing for some soap in the corner. Thankfully the only thing I saw was his face and his arm and maybe a bit of his chest. I grabbed my brush from the counter and hurried to my door. Unfortunately, Percy chose right now to end his shower. Shit, shit, shit! What do I do?

I was stupid and hid in the closet of the bathroom. It was made like a plastic curtain so I could still see. Fortunately for both Percy, and my eyes, my height made me unable to see anything under his lower waist line. I saw Percy's complete 6 pack and a bit of his but crack, but nothing else. Thank god!

Once he wrapped a towel around his lower body, he left. I left my hiding spot and was about to leave when Percy came back for his dirty laundry. This time I was too slow. He saw me. He was still in his towel. I faced my door after sneaking a peek.

"Uhhh, Annabeth? What are you doing in the bathroom?" he asked me slowly and awkwardly.

"Getting my brush?" I said in a questioning tone while holding up my brush. I then quickly exited before he could question me any further.

Percy POV

That was weird…

I don't think Annabeth was spying, I think she had to get her brush and tried to do it without my noticing. That was a epic fail though.

I got dressed in a white plain tank top with army pants. I got a beige hoodie out of my closet and put it on over the top. I looked in the mirror, and smiled. Even when I try to comb my messy hair it stays messy. Most of the girls at my school say that adds to my 'hotness' factor.

I put my iphone in my pocket and slipped on my black flip flops. I decided to not bring up the bathroom incident when I helped Annabeth unpack. I headed over after texting Carol to come help us if she wanted to.

Before I could even knock though Annabeth opened the door.

"Oh, sorry Percy, I was just coming over to explain the bathroom incident." She said looking at the floor.

"It's ok Annabeth, I understand, it was an accident. But I was coming over to help you unpack if you still want me to." I said normally.

"Yeah, come on." She said a bit more cheerfully. "I already put away my clothes, but I might need some help with the higher shelves. Also, you can help me unpack my shoes, books, and school supplies."

"That sounds like a lot of work." I said with mock-exhaust.

"Get to work, Seaweed Brain."

"Seaweed Brain?" I asked curiously.

"Well, you love to swim and no offense, but you don't seem like the smartest fish in the pond."

"No offense taken. But by judging from the amount of books in the bag over there I should start calling you Wise Girl." I replied smoothly.

"Sure thing, Kelp Head."

"Right back at ya, Bookworm."

We had been moving closer together with every sentence. We were now an inch apart.

"We should get to work." I said staring into those grey eyes.

"Why? Does this bother you?" it was her turn to tease me.

"No, actually I have a girlfriend." I replied coolly.

"And this?" she whispered on my neck.

"I hope Rachael doesn't see us." I replied not answering the question.

"You didn't answer the question, Seaweed Brain." She whispered again on my neck.

"No, Wise Girl, a girl other than my girlfriend whispering on my neck seductively doesn't bother me at all." I said with a hint of sarcasm in my voice.

"Really?" she said moving away. Her sarcasm was more noticeable than mine was.

"Yeah. Where do you want your school stuff, again?" I asked trying to get to the problem at hand.

"Over there, under my desk." She said.

After we were done fixing her room it actually looked like she'd been here for a while. I was just straightening her sheets when a pillow hit me from behind.

"Hey!" I said getting a pillow and throwing it at her.

"You need to get better aim Percy!" she said as she sidestepped easily.

"Is this better?" I said as I tackled her down onto the bed and grabbed another pillow. She hit with another one me before I could even react.

"Not really." She said as I swiped the pillow through the air and made her trip onto the bed. After throwing it at her, she pushed me down onto the bed.

I had a genius idea. As she reached over her head to get another pillow, I started tickling her ribs area. She couldn't stop laughing and she tried to get me off.

"Stop…it…Percy" she said in between attempts to kick me off and laughing.

"Only when you apologize for throwing a pillow at me." I told her.

"Never!" she yelled.

"Then I won't stop tickling you." I backed her into a corner with that.

"Never!" she yelled again.

"Percy, mom told me to tell you dinner is ready." Carol said without looking up from her phone. I stopped tickling Annabeth and we both turned our heads toward the direction of the door.

"Oh…."she realized the position we were in then smirked. "What were you two doing?" she asked implying the worst.

"Nothing." We said together as we sat up on the bed.

"Really?" she asked sarcastically. I sometimes really wished I had a 5 year old for a sister not a 12 year old who has had 'the talk'…

"Well, we were fixing the bed when, Seaweed Brain, over here started a pillow fight." Annabeth said next to me.

"Did not, you started it and then I tickled you." I replied like a 5 year old tattle teller.

"Seaweed Brain?" my sister asked looking from Annabeth to me.

"Yeah, that's my nickname, hers is Wise Girl." I answered her question.

"Oookaay then. Mom said dinner is ready!" she said and then left.

I turned my head slowly to look over at Annabeth, "You still haven't said sorry." I said mischievously.

"We have to eat dinner Percy, come on." She grabbed my wrist and we went downstairs.

Annabeth POV

As me and Percy made our way to the table I noticed Zack had a seat saved for Percy and Coral had a seat saved for me so that we sat across from each other.

"Good evening, Mr. and Mrs. Blofis." I said politely when I sat in my seat. There was chicken, gravy, mashed potatoes, and some diet coke on the black marble table. The plates were white and had fancy blue designs around the edges. The silverware was simple but pretty. The cups were glass, and looked simple but elegant.

"Annabeth, sweetie, call me Sally and call my husband Paul." Sally replied from one end of the table. Paul was at the other end.

"Ok Sally."

We ate for a little while before the question I was dreading popped up into the conversation.

"So, Annabeth, what do your parents do?" Paul asked before stuffing some chicken in his mouth.

"Well, uh, I never met my mother, and my father died six months ago. Before that he worked as a history professor." I said with no emotion in my voice. Sally glared at Paul and Percy looked up as if to say "you too?"

"I am sorry sweetie, we didn't know. Your step mother didn't say anything about your parents in the papers. I do understand however that you are a straight A student, and are applying for Harford, Yale, Dartmouth, UPenn, Princeton, and Stanford for college. Which one's your favorite?" she said changing the subject.

I was thankful that she didn't try to apologize for my parents but only because she didn't know. It didn't seem fake, like so many other things people had told her.

"Well, I just hope I get a big enough scholarship to get into any college at all, so I'm not that picky." I explained. Paul is the English teacher at the school I will be attending this year along with Percy and Rachael. We started up a conversation about school so quickly that I could see Percy mentally face-palm.

I also discovered that Percy's Mom was a published author and had made a lot of money with her new book.

After dinner Percy had to clear the table and put the dishes in the dishwasher. I decided to help him. As I handed him the plates from the table he rinsed them and placed them in the machine. When we were done we headed upstairs.

I needed to change into a new shirt because a certain someone accidently sprayed me with water. After I changed I headed to Percy's room and knocked. He told me to enter.

He was playing with hi video games on his water bed.

"Hey, can I use your laptop to chat with my friend Reyna?" I asked.

"Yeah, sure. The password's Poseidon."

"Thanks." I said as I sat on his desk chair and logged in. When I opened the internet there was already a site open. Facebook. Percy's profile picture was of Red and him kissing. I felt my heart ache.

"Oops, sorry." Said Percy as he came up behind me and logged out. His body felt warm against mine. I looked up at him. Our noses were touching.

That's when Percy's phone beeped, startling both of us. It was just a text. I couldn't read it but when Percy read it his face fell. I asked him to let me see it. He just gave me the phone and sat on his bed.
