(Annabeth's POV)
I spent the rest of the weekend thinking of ways, of hinting my feelings for Percy. By the time Monday came, I was ready. Unfortunately I was never going to get my chance. All through morning at school, Percy was hanging out with his friends Jason, Triton, Frank, Leo, and the Stolls. I was glad Percy had new friends, but I cut time out with me hanging out with him. I talked to Thalia, Piper, and Hazel about it, they were going to try and get Percy and me some talk time during lunch. So I was in Math, the period before lunch, and was staring at the clock. 5 more minutes until lunch…4 more minutes…..3 more minutes….2 more minutes…..1 more minute….RIIIIIING! The bell went off and I bolted out of the door. A crowd of boys waited for me by my locker though, so I decided to take a detour and just dropped my books In the hallways and decided to just pick them up once lunch was over. I met up with Thalia, Piper, and Hazel in the lunch line.
"Did you talk to Percy's friends?" I asked Thalia.
"Yeah they said they would give you and Percy sometime to talk." Thalia smiled at me. I smiled back, I was kind of nice liking a boy. Percy came in laughing about something along with his friends, excluding Triton who only glared at Percy, hahaha jealous much. But then I was Rachel sashay over to Percy, she was wearing I low cut skirt, with a white shirt that was practically see through. Boys watched her walk, open mouthed and drooling. Gladly Percy didn't really care.
"Hi Rachel." he greeted.
"Oh hey Percy." Rachel slurred. Thalia had to hold me back from beating the little welp to nothing but a raggedy ann doll! She continued talking to Percy, who was oblivious to Rachel's flirting. He saw me looking at waved at me shyly, I blushed a little and waved back.
"I think he likes you back." Piper whispered to me, I blushed harder which caused Thalia to chuckle. Hestia, the lunch lady, was a beautiful girl with ginger hair, and kind eyes. She smiled at us, and handed us our food. She made the best food ever. Of course she had help, like from Mr. D although he didn't do much. I thanked her and found myself a seat in the crowded cafeteria. Thalia was able to scare away any guys that tried to sit by me. Gosh that girl would be a body guard. When the boys got their food, we waved them over by us.
"Hello ladies." Leo smiled as he sat next to Thalia, who looked at him in disgust. Percy almost sat next Jason, but Piper pushed him in the seat next to me and plopped next to Jason.
"I want to sit here." she replied sweetly. Then she realized she was sitting next to Jason, and blushed a little. Jason smiled and her, began eating his food.
"Looks like I'm seating next to you." Percy smiled at me, butterflies erupted into my stomach. He has such a sexy smile…wait!?…did I just think that? Suddenly I forgot how I was going to hint to Percy. But I smiled back anyway, and began eating. Thalia and Hazel motioned for me to start talking, Piper was too busy talking to Jason.
'start talking' Thalia mouthed to me.
'I forgot what I was going to say' I mouthed back sheepishly.
'you must really like Percy' Hazel mouthed, I hid my blush. Thankfully Thalia decided to step in.
"So Percy…who are planning on bringing to the dance?" Thalia asked.
"What dance?" Percy asked.
"Well…er….if there was a dance. Who would you ask?" real smooth Thalia I thought sarcastically. But I still rolled with what she said.
"yeah Percy, who would you ask?" I asked smiling at me. He shifted uncomfortable.
"Well…..uh…..I don't know many girls here." he said, my heart sunk a little. Thalia noticed and tried thinking of something to say. But suddenly Principle Zeus, Hades, and Poseidon walked into the cafeteria and all talk died down.
"Students, we've decided that were going to break our school into 2 different parts." Zeus announced, protests erupted everywhere.
"SILENCE!" Zeus bellowed, and the noise died down again.
"We are doing this because too many arguments are sprouting on if we should be called the Greeks, or the Romans." Hades continued.
"We should be called Greeks!" Clarrise shouted, her table banged their hands on the table in agreement.
"More like geeks, Romans would be way better!" Octavian, a scrawny protester, shouted. Soon people were taking sides on whether we should be Greeks or Romans. But the big 3 couldn't calm them down.
"We should be Romans." Jason said.
"oh please Jason, Greeks are way better." Thalia argued.
"I don't know, I kind of like the Romans." Hazel piped up.
"yeah me too." added Frank.
"Ew Romans are so…gah! Greek are so much better!" Leo retorted.
"For once I agree with Leo, Greeks rule." Piper said.
"I think you togas are on too tight!"
"Your being stupid!"
"I think we should be Romans"
"Well no one cares what you think!"
"You'll care about what I think now." Frank shouted and through his sandwich at Leo, who dodged and hit a girl named Reyna instead. Her eyes flashed, and she grabbed her mashed potatoes and gravy and threw it in Leo's face. Leo stood there then glared at her, "If that's the way you want to play it." he said, he grabbed his milk and dumped it all over Frank, then threw a glob of apple sauce at Reyna. But it hit Octavian instead. Clarrise laughed at Octavian, so Octavian picked up his peach and threw it at her. It exploded on her face, she spit out some peach.
"Oh It's on." she said, she picked up an apple and it hurled toward Octavian who barely managed to dodge it and it hit a guy named Dakota instead which pretty much knocked him out cold. Soon everyone was throwing food at someone else.
"Greeks are stupid!" some random guy shouted. I glared at him.
"Your going to regret that." I said and threw my fork at him, it almost pegged him in the eye. Then I threw my strawberry's in his face. I continued to assault him with fruit, until he ran away in fear. Then out of no where a slice of pizza hit me in the face, blinded I hit into someone and we crashed to the floor. I peeled the pizza off of my face, and looked up to see Rachel. She was covered in barbeque sauce, she glared back.
"Well, well, well if it isn't orphan annie." she sneered, when I ran away when I was younger people called me orphan annie. I only told my friends about that, and they promised to never tease me. Rachel was going to die.
"Shut your fat mouth!" I shouted, and stuffed a random piece of chicken in her face.
"You stupid son of a-" she lunged at me, and we wrestled on the food covered floor. We bumped into other people, who ended up sprawled on the floor with their enemy. Which caused them to start wrestling as well, causing more people to fall. She clawed at my arms, and I pulled out her hair. Until finally someone pulled us apart. I was about to unleash all my fury on the person, until I realized it was Percy. The fight was still going on around us, but I focused on him. Rachel tried to smear some of the barbeque sauce off her body. She only spread it.
"Hi Percy." we said at the same time.
"You guys okay." he asked. He nodded. Then out of no where a pack of skittles hit Percy in the face, he hit into Jason. And they sprawled on the floor. Me and Rachel glanced at each other, and continued our fight. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Percy and Jason fighting. Piper was trying to pull them apart with no luck. It was chaotic. But then the fire alarm rang and the water system turned on. We all stopped out fighting as we got soaked to the bone.
"THAT IS ENOUGH!" Poseidon yelled.
Well there goes my plan of hinting to Percy.
