Chapter: 6
I'M SO SORRY IT TOOK ME SO LONG TO UPDATE! I'm so sorry! Unfortunately, I can't promise that this time I will update sooner. Fortunately, I CAN promise that I will try. I'm going to focus on Percy and Annabeth now. So here we go, chapter 5!
Annabeth Pov:
Stop it, Annabeth! You can't fall hard for a boy you just met! It isn't like the movies, love always ends in heartbreak, right?
But I was falling for him. And he had only said two things to me!
I sat up straight. Percy quickly followed. Across the booth, Piper and the blonde were talking. I knew Piper had a crush a crush on the blonde, and it looked like he had a crush on her too.
Man, when did I know about crushes and love? I knew my answer.
When I met Percy Jackson.
Percy coughed. Piper and the blonde- man, I needed to stop calling him the blonde. They sat up.
"So, what's your name?" I asked the blonde at the same exact time Percy asked Piper. We looked at each other. I giggled. I am Annabeth Chase! I do not fall for boys, and I do NOT giggle! I coughed. Percy smiled at me. The four of us were silent.
"So, my name's Jason Grace." The blonde haired boy said. I knew his name. Finally.
"I'm Piper McLean."
"Percy Jackson," Percy introduced.
"Annabeth Chase."
"Leo Valdez."
We all looked at "Leo Valdez." He was medium height, hispanic, and I recognized him as the one who was fighting with the tall boy earlier.
"What?" He asked. "No one invited me to this party! Really, don't you want it to be fun?" Leo joked.
"Dude, did you upset someone? Tall, black hair?" Leo's smile was wiped off his face. He gulped.
"Um, yeah. I called him a non experienced noob who had no idea what a drill was."
Jason was puzzled. "That's all?"
"Yup. But I managed to lose him."
"Oh. Because he's coming over here, and he looks mad."
"Oh! Thanks! I got to go! Remember, invite me to your next party!" He ran off. A few seconds later the tall boy stormed over.
"Have you seen a short, hispanic boy who doesn't know what the heck a drill is?"
"No," we answered simultaneously.
"Fine," he growled. "But if you see him, tell me."
"Ok," we said. He ran off.
Just then a waiter appeared. She was carrying two drinks. A blue cola and diet pepsi. She placed the blue cola in front of Percy and the pepsi in front of Jason. Percy took a sip.
"Hey! I see you're new to," she paused. "French-Fry-A-Fi," she said slowly. I wondered what that was about. "Anything I can get you?"
"Sprite, please. And can I get a," I looked at the menu. "Large fries with a side of burger?"
"I know right?!" Percy exclaimed.
"I guess a sprite and a small fries with a side of a burger with the pretzel roll!" I said, surprised that was a choice.
"Um," Piper said. "For drinks a water. And a small fries with a side of a veggie burger."
Leo slid into the booth next to Piper. "And I'll have a large fries with a side of," he paused. "THE BACONATOR!"
"Ok! Coming right up!" The waitress walked away.
"Ha!" Jason laughed. "You're wasting your money, dude! There's no way you'll finish a large fries and a baconator!"
"Wanna bet on it?" Leo said and raised an eyebrow.
"Sure."
"How about… fifteen bucks?"
"Deal."
"Great."
The waitress came with our drinks. I took a sip of my sprite. Leo pouted.
"Wait! I didn't order my drink!"
"Ok, what would you like to drink?" She asked.
"An extra large fanta orange soda." He looked at Jason. "Twenty bucks?"
"Absolutely."
Eventually all our food came. We all dug in. Leo devoured his fries, burger, and took big gulps of his orange soda.
"Dude, is there anything you like better than this?" Jason asked.
"Yeah, tacos!" Leo exclaimed. "Duh!" Jason facepalmed.
"What happened to that guy who was chasing you around?" I asked. Leo smiled.
"Yeah, I miss him." Percy joked.
"He's a little… tangled up."
"Leo…" Piper warned.
"Hey! What makes you think I did something!" He shouted. We looked at him skeptically.
"Ok, I trapped him. But so what? He's smart. He can get out."
"Leo, he did." And he looked mad.
"Oh, darn." Leo pointed at Jason. "Don't forget, you owe me twenty bucks."
He ran away, and the tall guy ran after him. After a second of complete silence from all of us, we laughed.
First day here, and I have to say. I made some pretty good friends.
So hopefully I will update sooner next time. Also, look at the characters in Chapter 4. Who's Pov should I do it in next? It can be anyone in the story. In case you were confused, the tall boy was Beckendorf. And also, do you want someone else in the story who isn't? I was thinking about making the waitress someone…
