(A/N: I do realize that a few of these characters will be a year or two younger than Percy and Annabeth. They do have different classes all except for things like Greek, Latin, and a couple other electives. I am not in highschool yet, so I don't know all the details.)
Percy's Pov.
Everyone knows how sullen I can get during the day, but today, instead of pitying looks, they were giving me a 'good-for-you-smile'. It must show how much Annabeth affects my mood. I can now joke without feeling lonely and I think my sleepless nights will get better.
(this is the day Annabeth is visting)

Percy is very undepressed looking today. The black bags under his eyes aren't as defined as yesterday's, as if he had a coffee with extra caffeene. Normally he would just sulk around with a haunted look in his eyes, like he's seen anything and everything terrible, but you could tell he would try to not be upset for the others around him. He never talked about himself and what he did during the last year, and before that time. When someone would ask, he would literally jump, and then eye them suspiciously like they would attack him. He would put a mental wall up and try to change the subject to something common, like the weather. Sometimes, when the bell rings, he would wince and put his hand to his pocket.
Today though, he is more highper-active than usual (which is saying a lot since he is always highper) since the strange blonde girl came to visit.
Percy does have a few friends that he hangs out with here at school, those of which are nothing alike. Clarisse, the Stoll brothers, and a few others he met at a summer camp this summer, are those he spends time with. They have a similar look in their eyes, like a military veteran would after blood-shed.
Today, I saw the new girl who has the familiar look in her eyes as Percy. I could see them whispering in another language, (was that Greek?) and holding hands while walking down the hallway.
Sometimes in that strange group they would mutter strange things. For example, 'Oh my gods!' and 'What the Hades!'. Those things would cause all of them to say things like, 'Been there' and 'Met them'. Those were the only people he would laugh around, though he ordinarily seems like he was missing somebody who had a very deep place in his heart, soul, and mind.
The new girl Annabeth treats him like he is a part of her, and he as if she as a part of him. She is very much like him, but different is so many ways. They both have the same cursing vocabulary, and the same look as if they've seen everything. Other than that, though, they were different. They're personalities, most of their interests, lie in different universes all together.
That new girl is his other half.
Martha's Pov.
Annabeth, went to my school. She is a very jittery person, and that's an understatement. I heard she went on this trip to Rome and to Greece over the summer, though she never wants to talk about it. Most of the time she sits with Frank, Jason, and Hazel during lunch, who she met in this last year. She always speaks to them about this 'boyfriend'.Most don't believe a sulky, scared-of-her-own-shadow-type girl can have one. When she talks of him she speaks of Mt. St. Helens, California, some muttering of 'Jupiter', and stuff like The Sea of Monsters. I have no clue what she is talking about, though. Sometimes she says things like 'If only Percy were here, he would know what to do'. I am guessing that is her 'boyfriend'.
Also, everyone is scared of Annabeth like she's a time-bomb just waiting to go off. She has this crazy look is her eyes like she would kill you if you offended her in any way possible, or if you mentioned what she did this summer. If someone does offend her, her friends would hold her back while she shouts, "I saved ALL of your asses, and you don't even know the half of it!" So many people were happy when they found she and her group of friends were moving to New York. We endured enough stress from her.
