I forgot to do this in the last chapter but I OWN NOTHING!

After Carter left I looked around for my friends. Thalia is standing by the drinks table with her boyfriend Luke and they're looking like they're going to be kissing in about three seconds. Annabeth is talking in the corner with John, apparently she had already asked him out when we made our bet so I was the only one who had anything to lose, and I didn't feel like interrupting them, I know I wouldn't like it if I was interrupted on one of my dates. Rachel was nowhere to be seen, and Piper took the prize for being preoccupied, she and her boyfriend Jason, who hates my guts by the way, are walking out of the gym holding hands probably looking for an unoccupied janitors closet.

I sighed and left by myself.

As I walked home the wind bit through the flimsy jean jacket Rachel had given me. And when I had two more blocks to go it, of course, starts raining. When I get to my building I try to run inside and fall because of my stupid shoes.

I usually run up the stairs but doing that in these shoes doesn't seem like a good idea so I use the elevator. When I get up to my apartment I check my pockets and swear, I had left them in the pocket of my leather jacket, that was hanging six inches from me on the other side of the door. I am going to check under the doormat but I remember that mom had given her boyfriend our spare key and they had left at six this morning. I pull out my phone and check the time.

10:27 the front office had closed at 10. I was stuck outside my apartment soaking wet in a dress and makeup, ugh why is the world laughing at me?

I lean up against the door and close my eyes and before I know it I'm asleep.

I was really confused when A told me that she was a girl, but I've had to deal with some weird things, so I think I did pretty well not starring at her like she just dropped off the moon, but honestly it made sense, she was always very secretive and she never played sports that required taking off your shirt or wearing tight clothing. It must actually say in her file that she's a guy cause she's on the guys basketball team. As I drive home I try not to think about it so I'm paying attention. Its 11:30 and the rain is pouring down. When I get to my building I start up the stairs, it would have been easier to take the elevator as I live on the top floor, but walking up the stairs gives me time to think.

When I get to the second floor I stop, A Jackson is sleeping on the floor in front of an apartment that I assume is hers. Her dress is soaked and her shoes are sitting on the floor next to her. I know it's a bad idea but I feel that I need to help her so I lean down and pick her up, she half opens her eyes and punches me in the arm. I almost drop her, when she had hit me at the dance it had hurt more than I had let on. I turn back to the stairs but I don't want her to wake up again so I go the rest of the way up on the elevator.

When I get to my door I try to prepare for explaining the sleeping girl I was carrying to her, Sadie's cool and all but she doesn't approve of all the girls who I go out with but I knocked any way. The door opened just after my knuckles touched it. Sadie was probably about to shout at me for bringing a girl home at 11:45 but I stopped her.

"Sadie she was sleeping outside of her apartment in a dress and she's soaking wet just let her stay here for the night,"

"Did she agree to come? Did she even wakeup when she brought her up here?"

"She didn't agree to come but she woke up long enough to punch me so can I come in or not?"

She moved out of the way and said, "You're going to sleep on the couch and she gets your room,"

I figured it was the best offer I was getting so I nodded and went to put her in my room. When I came out Sadie asked, "Do you know her name?"

"Yes, and I would never just bring a sleeping girl home. That's A Jackson." the look on her face was priceless.

"You told me A Jackson was a guy," Sadie says.

"Yeah well I thought she was up until three hours ago when she told me," I reply indignantly. We're sitting on the couch talking.

"OK tell me the whole story,"

"Well I was doing my usual thing, going around talking to girls and getting them to dance with me when Rachel Dare and her friends walked in. I don't usually pay attention to them because they hang out with A and if I try to flirt with one of them he spends the night going around flirting with all my friends. But this time A wasn't with them and there was this girl who was really pretty so I spent most of the night making sure A wasn't there, and when I was at the drinks table she slipped and I caught her, then we had this conversation, during which she punched me, and it ended in her telling me who she was. Then when I was going up the stair I saw her sleeping and I wanted to help,"

"Carter, ugh, we'll talk about this more in the morning just get some sleep and put some ice on your arm,"

With that she got up and left. Don't get me wrong I love my sister but sometimes I want to hit her, and I probably would if I wasn't so scared of her.

I could barely get any sleep because I was thinking about A and how if my sister didn't kill me in my sleep she would when she woke up.

hope you like it thanks to those who reviewed.
