Hey, people of the world! I want to apologize for not posting in a long time. I've been super busy and when I had time to write I couldn't think of anything. I'm also going to apologize if this chapter's grammar is not good and if it doesn't make that much sense. I was just rushing to write my story for you guys. Plus I did it on my phone. ANYWAYS, this is the only time I will post on a Friday! Enjoy.
Annabeth P.O.V
Not much to say about today. All I have to say is that school was boring, Piper still has problems with Spanish, oh, and Thalia punched a guy. But still not much to say.
Well. . . Now that I think about it. Percy and I did decided, er. . . wait, I decided that we are to meet after school at four-thirty to build the model. I'm pretty sure he is not looking forward to this, but I know that I am.
I sat in my bedroom, locked in a bunch of emotions, I dared not to say aloud. I was at my desk doing my homework just waiting for the clock to turn four-thirty. It's not that I hated doing my homework, it's just that I wasn't feeling it. I don't know.
I sat there like an idiot. Looking at my homework and looking back at the clock. I felt like it took forever to turn to a different minute.
With my hair still tied up from school, I slowly pulled out the hair band to let my hair loose to let it do it's own thing. I knew that sooner or later I was going to have to go through the mess in my closet to get the supplies we were going to need to be able to build the model.
Looking at my biology questions, I finally realized I was wasting time. I finished the last couple of questions and felt relieved. I got up and opened the door to my closet. I looked at the top, it was neat; everything on the bottom was all thrown together! I stood there staring and I heard the doorbell ring from downstairs. I shot my head up immediately and looked at my clock. It read four-fifteen.
What?
I raced downstairs and opened the front door; Percy was standing there!
I frowned.
"Why do you look upset?" he tried to walk in, but I stopped him, "aren't you going to let me in?" he looked at me with a questioning look.
"No," I crossed my arms.
"Why not?"
"Because it's not four-thirty, yet!"
"It doesn't matter, I'm here to work and that's that."
"No, you are to go back to your car and come back at exactly four-thirty." I smiled as I closed the door on him before he could say another word.
I ran back upstairs to get all the stuff.
I pulled out paperboard from old cereal boxes, a glue gun, glue stick, scissors, paper, all different colors of paint, paper cutter board, and a bunch of other stuff. I ran out of my room, with all the supplies in my my arms, to my crafting room. Which was right next to my bedroom.
I entered and saw two chairs waiting for us to sit in at my crafting table.
I set everything neatly in order, pluged in the hot glue gun, and ran back downstairs to wait at the door.
I looked at my watch and there was one minute left.
I stood behind my door just waiting to hear that doorbell ring. I looked at my watch one more time.
Boom!
The clocked turned to four-thirty and the doorbell rang!
I opened it right away and saw Percy standing there.
I smiled, "Now you can come in!" I motioned him to come into my house.
He walked towards the living room and spoke, "Wow, nice house." he stood there and looked all around.
"Whatever, come on, follow me." I walked back upstairs to my crafting room. He trailed behind.
"Woah," he commented.
"Come on, Percy, just sit down," I patted on the chair next to me to give him a signal.
"Oh, sorry." he sat down and stared at the table full of items.
"Okay, you're going to cut out all the walls. Twenty of the walls will be six inches wide and three inches tall. We'll figure the rest out. You're going to use the paper cutter board to cut wall neatly and straight. It has to be perfect.
He nodded with a questioning look.
I looked into his sparkling green eyes and fell even more in love.
Which I couldn't, not right now. It hurts me.
I brushed my hair behind my ears.
"You have your hair down." he stated.
"Oh, does it look bad?" I worried.
"No. . .No, it looks- it makes you look pretty," he smiled.
I blushed, "Oh, thanks."
It was a little awkward after that.
We didn't really talk much.
He cut the walls and covered them with paper (to give it a cleaner look) and I painted them. All while looking at a picture of the school to get it right.
"So, what is this model for?" he stopped cutting and looked my way.
Still painting, I answered his question, "It's for graduation. They are going to put it on display for showing. It's also for principal Omar's speech."
"Oh, okay." he looked back at what he was doing and started working.
I guess he was trying to make a conversation?
"Alright, this awkwardness is killing me!" he looked up at me as I got up to put some music.
"What are you going to do?"
"I'm putting music on," I connected my phone to my speaker and played some music.
Percy, suddenly started to dance to the song.
"What are you doing?" I managed to say through some laughs.
"I'm dancing." he smiled as his dances moves led him to get up and dance even more.
"Percy, can we just work?"
"No, come on," he started shaking his hips and doing all these weird turns.
"If you're not going to, then I will." I dipped my brush into the paint and started painting again.
Percy, stopped dancing when the song was over, or so I thought.
A slow song started playing; I felt Percy grab my hand and lift me up from my chair.
"Percy, no." I moved away from him trying to get back to my seat, but he pulled me back and our eyes met.
He had his hands on my waist, my hands on his shoulder and we stood there just swaying in circles.
Our eyes were locked on each other.
My heart started beating faster as I realised our chest were together.
He spun me around a couple of times and we laughed each time.
The song felt like it was going on forever. For some reason I didn't want it to stop.
We never took our eyes off of each other.
I felt him lean closer towards me. And I did as well. Our lips came closer, I wanted pull away. Because I knew I wasn't ready to love. I just couldn't.
I'm at the bottom now. Hope you enjoyed this chapter! The chapter was a little short, that doesn't matter! Please review! I want to see what you guys think so far. I'll try to post next Wednesday. Try. No more talking. Bye! Oh, have great blessed day. (:
