School was great until Leo arrived to History.
There was a flash of cinnamon hair, a red shirt, and before he knew it, Leo was on the ground, his notebook and pencils scattered everywhere. It was a girl who bumped into him. A very good-looking one in fact. But there was something in the way her face was set that made Leo dislike her immediately.
"Seriously. You need to look out," She hissed at Leo, who was collecting his numerous pencils from the ground.
Leo glared at her. "I think you need to look out for other people more than I do Mrs. Toast."
The girl's face reddened. "I actually have a name you know."
"Oh I never knew that," Leo smirked. "I always thought that everyone didn't have names."
Biting her lip, the girl walked inside. Leo, collecting the rest of his countless pencils, followed.
In the white walled classroom, Leo found Percy in the back and went to go sit next to him. Leo looked around. The girl with the cinnamon hair was sitting in the front. Leo relaxed. Well, he thought, I know that I'm not going to die today.
Percy sighed. Leo turned in his seat to face him, "What's wrong?"
"Its Calypso," Percy pointed towards the front. Towards the cinnamon colored hair.
The history teacher came in and hushed the class before Leo could ask his friend how he knew her. Leo glanced at Percy again. His mouth was set in a straight line. Leo decided to ask him about it later when he had the chance.
The history teacher, in a wheel chair, introduced himself as Mr. Chiron. The class liked him immediately. Mr. Chiron somehow managed to make everyone learn while telling jokes and being almost completely random and before Leo knew it, class was almost over.
"You all will be doing a project on an ancient civilization. In this project you will be working with a partner," Mr. Chiron said. Leo grinned and looked at Percy. Percy grinned back.
The history teacher continued, "You will be working with the partner that I assign you." He used magnets to attach a ginormous white paper to the board. He turned back to the class. "You and your partner's name will be written on the same line with the ancient civilization you will study and give a presentation on."
Leo quickly found his name. To the left of his name, was the word 'Greece' and to the right - Leo groaned out loud - written in bold black marker, was Calypso.
Percy put a hand on his shoulder. "Good luck."
Leo looked toward the opposite side of the room. The cinnamon haired girl shot him a venomous look. Leo sighed, Maybe I am going to die today.
A/N: Yes! over 460 words! Somewhat longer than the last one...
I'm trying to not keep everyone's personalities the same as they were in the book. (Am I doing well so far?)
Anyways, happy late Thanksgiving (to those who celebrate it)!
