Thanks for all the reviews!
Annabeth's POV
Percy, Piper, Jason, Leo, Hazel, Frank, and I were out to dinner at some fried chicken place in New Orleans. It was Hazel's birthday, so we were celebrating.
I had never had fried chicken before, and it was AMAZING! Succulent strips of chicken on bones, covered with fried goodness!
We were half-way through our second chicken, when I grabbed the piece of chicken called the back. I found it amazing that all the bones were pretty much intact in the piece of chicken. Naturally, I started talking about it to myself.
"Wow! Look at this hip cavity! Can't you just imagine the chicken walking! Oh, look at this spine! You can see each individual vertebrae, and each rib in the rib cage. Right there is where the heart would go. See, if I move the spine like this, I can simulate it walking. Can't you just imagine it covered in feathers and walking?"
All through my biology lesson, I was also eating the chicken. I stopped talking when I noticed everyone looking at me, chicken half-way to their mouths.
"Really, Annabeth?" Piper sighed.
"I believe I am finished eating," Frank grumbled.
"You ruined fried chicken for me. FOREVER!" Leo complained.
"I think I'm going to be sick," Hazel groaned.
"Was the feathers comment really necessary?" Jason asked.
"You know I love you Wise Girl, but I didn't really need a lesson about the anatomy of fried chicken; especially while I'm eating it!" Percy shook his head at me.
"That's what you get for dating a daughter of Athena," I replied with a smirk.
Percy grinned. "Touché."
