Chapter 4

A/N: **Looks sheepishly around**

Hi. Um… Yeah.

Sorry I've taken so long.. It's been the first couple weeks of summer for me, and it's been CRAZY.

Plus, I went to camp, so that means NO electronics. For a week.

So, I had a review mentioning the pact Percy made with the gods about claiming demigods before they turned 13. Well, do we honestly think that all of the gods would keep up all their kids? And, it's been 2 years since they made the pact.

SO: Let's try for 37 reviews!

My new Glee quote:

Finn: "I'd call my high school career a total success. I mean not in terms of grades and stuff but I won a state title in football and a national championship in glee club and it turns out I never actually accidentally got anyone pregnant."

LEXIA POV

(FRIDAY)

I groaned as Annabeth tried to wake me up, "Come on, Lexi. Get up; now."

I grabbed at the coffee table kept beside the couch, reaching for my glasses, shoving them on my face. I kicked Lyrical, as she rolled over, moaning, and walked into Thalia and Annabeth's room. Thalia was slumped over on her dress, asleep. I threw a pillow at her, only to have Thalia fall onto the floor, still asleep. I smirked, and quietly tip-toed over to the limp body of Thalia Grace. I positioned myself over her ear, and yelled,

"THALIA MARIE GRACE! GET UP!"

Thalia yelped, and jumped up, breathing heavily, "My gods, Lexia. What the Hades?"

She shocked me with her fingertip, and I jumped, "Ow! That hurts!"

She smirked and walked into the bathroom. I rolled my eyes and pulled on a blue racer back tank top that read, 'Born to Party,' my skinny jeans, and some brown cowboy boots. I walked into the bathroom to find Thalia brushing her hair, over, and over, again, a dazed look on her face. I kicked her lightly and she shook her head, and put the hairbrush down.

I grabbed my contacts case, took off my glasses and absentmindedly popped the contacts in place. I ran a brush through my blond hair, and sighed, 'This is as good as it gets.'

I walked out into the kitchen, and ate a donut, resting my head in my hand. Nico walked in, his hair sticking up in random directions.

"Hey Casper," I sighed.

He rolled his eyes, "Hey Lex. Where's Thalia?"

"In the bathroom."

"Oh. Okay. Give me the donut box?"

"Sure."

Okay, so I'm normally VERY hyper. But, I am NOT a morning person. I need coffee. At 13, most people don't think it's wise to give me caffeine, but I need it. I'll get hyper for a little while, then completely crash. I walked into Annabeth and Thalia's bedroom, to see Annabeth sitting on her bed, Thalia putting black eyeliner on, and Lyrical putting some sandals on.

I sighed, and walked into the kitchen to sit down next to Nico again.

"I want to get coffee. Can we go to Starbucks? Pleeeeeaase?"

Nico rolled his eyes, "I guess. I'll ask Percy and the girls if they want some too. We have time before school. You and I could go."

"I'll go ask the Thalia, Annabeth, and Lyrie. You talk to Perce."

"Okay."

I walked back into the bedroom, "Hey y'all, you want some coffee? Nico and I are going to go to Starbucks."

Annabeth groaned, "Latte! With caramel and whipped cream."

Lyrical shot her head out of the bathroom, "Yes! I want a vanilla frappuccino!"

Thalia turned away from her mirror, "A mocha! With extra chocolate!"

I grabbed my charmed 'iPhone,' and walked into the kitchen to find Nico sitting on the counter.

I smiled, "Annabeth wants a caramel latte with whipped cream, Lyrical wants a vanilla frappuccino, and Thals wants an extra chocolate mocha."

"Wow. Fancy. How'd you remember it all?"

I smirked, "Daughter of Athena. My brain is amazing. What does Percy want?"

"A latte. We're going to make it decaf, though."

"Definitely."

Nico grabbed his phone and walked out the door, me following. We walked into the hallway, and to the elevator. As Nico tried to press the 'down' button, I slapped his hand,

"I want to press the button! Move Nico!"

Nico raised his eyebrows, "Weirdo."

I smacked the down arrow, started bouncing up and down,

"I'm so excited for coffee! Yummy!"

"You are the weirdest 13 year old I've ever met."

The elevator dinged, and we stepped into the elevator, an elderly woman, already on board. I bit my lip, still bouncing.

"Hey Casper."

"What Lexi?"

"I told Kaine that your middle name is Diane."

"What? Why?"

"Thalia helped. She says it was payback for that time you called her Pikachu in public."

"Oh. But you call her Pikachu, and she doesn't mind."

"It's because I'm awesome."

"Whatever."

The elevator doors opened, and we stepped into our building's lobby, and walked into the parking garage, over to Percy's car. Nico unlocked the doors and stuck the key in the ignition. I hopped next to Nico, and turned on the radio.

A familiar song blasted through the speakers,

I threw a wish in the well

Don't ask me I'll never tell

I looked at you as it fell, and now you're in my way

"I love this song Nico!"

I sang the rest of the words, as loud as possible,

"I trade my soul for a wish,

Pennies and dimes for a kiss

I wasn't looking for this, but now you're in my way

Your stare was holdin',

Ripped jeans, skin was showin'

Hot night, wind was blowin'

Where you think you're going, baby?"

Nico rolled down the windows, laughing,

"Hey, I just met you,

And this is crazy,

But here's my number,

So call me, maybe?

It's hard to look right,

At you baby,

But here's my number,

So call me, maybe?"

After the chorus, I turned the radio off, and Nico turned into Starbucks. We pulled into the parking lot, and walked into the shop.

We walked up to the girl at the counter, a cheery smile planted on her face,

"Hello! Welcome to Starbucks! How may I help you?"

I smiled back, "One caramel latte with whipped cream, a vanilla frappuccino, an extra chocolate mocha, a decaf latte, a coffee, and a cookie crumble frappuccino. All grande size."

The girl's eyes widened, "Is that all?"

Nico bit his lip, "Nope. A blueberry muffin, two chocolate muffins, one slice of pound cake, one chocolate donut, and some coffee cake. That's all."

The employee staggered away, and Nico snickered, "Poor girl."

I smirked, "I feel bad for her. Dibs on the coffee cake."

"I want the donut. Lyrical, Percy, Thalia and Annabeth can fight over the rest."

"Sounds good."

The employee walked back to the counter with our coffee and food. Nico pulled out a twenty dollar bill and handed it to the girl, "Keep the change."

She nodded, "Thanks. Have a nice day."

We took our food, and walked out. I grabbed my frappuccino and slurped on it, "Yummy! Nico, why didn't you get a frappuccino?"

"I just want coffee. I don't need a coffee milkshake."

As we stepped back into Percy's car, I groaned, "Oh, gods. We have that stupid party tonight."

Nico scrunched up his face, his eyes staying on the road, "Crap. That sucks."

"And, you know that girl who teased Lyre and I on our first day?"

"Yeah. What's her name? Leanne?"

I nodded, "Uh, huh. Leanne's sister is Brianna; the girl who's party we're going to."

"Oh. Sucks for you. You have to hang out with her and her other sister all night."

"Hades. Oh, well. What are you wearing?"

"Leather jacket, black jeans. The usual. What about you?"

"Loose aqua dress, lime green heels, and my Gir backpack."

Nico chuckled, "You're so sophisticated. Heels and a Gir backpack. You do know that Leanne's going to torture you."

I grinned, "I know. But I don't really care what she says or thinks. I just wish she knew who she was messing with."

"I know the feeling."

The rest of the car ride was silent. We pulled into the building, grabbed our food, and walked into the elevator. Once Nico and I walked back into the apartment, we were bombarded by demigods. Thalia was the first to attack us. Well, she actually attacked Nico. She jumped on him, grabbing the Starbucks bag, and running into the kitchen.

"Dibs on the chocolate muffin!" Thalia screamed.

I ran into the kitchen, "I want the coffee cake!"

Lyrical arrived right after me, "Is there a blueberry muffin?"

I nodded, and handed it to her, taking the coffee cake with me. Annabeth took food from the bag, rolling her eyes at Percy, who was arguing with Lyrical over the blueberry muffin. Annabeth gave Lyrical the muffin, and stuffed some pound cake in Percy's mouth, grinning.

Ten minutes later, Lyrical and I were walking into our homeroom, straight into Leanne.

ANNABETH POV

Nico, Thalia, Percy and I walked into homeroom, took our usual seats, and started a conversation about how Reyna somehow likes Leo. It's unbelievable. Tara walked up to us, her typical smile, stretched across her face.

"Hey you guys! I'm so excited about tonight! Aren't you?"

"Yeah. I'm very excited," Nico said, his voice dripping with sarcasm.

A/N: THE END. Of this chapter, anyways… So, I know, it's short, but it felt like a nice place to stop.

And, I really wanted to put a chapter out. The past few weeks have been cRaZy! So, I'm going to start another chapter right away!

WEIRD STORY ABOUT TODAY:

So, it's not really that weird, but here it is anyways:

My sister walked up to me and gave me carrots, I asked, "For ME?" She raised her eyebrows and said, "Uh.. No. Their for the guinea pigs." I shrugged and said, "Oh well. I'm going to eat them anyways."

So I stuffed the carrots in my mouth and walked away.

I want to see who reads to the bottom, so if you do, put the phrase: 'Sally sells sea shells on the sea shore.' In your review. You'll get a SHOUT OUT!
