Chapter 9
Annabeth's POV:
Me and Percy were in a Japanese Denny's and were already paying.
"So, Annie. What are we going to do with our one day in Tokyo." Percy asked as we walked out of the smelly renstraunt. I shrugged and flipped through a magazine I picked up. Percy ran his hand thorugh his hair as we walked through the smoky city.
"Well, there was this thing on an add that I saw that would be fun for tonight." He said sounding a little nervous. I looked up and waited for him to tell me what it was.
"Well actually it may sound really stupid, but it's a little mini ball for some people and we could maybe crash it?" he replied while rubbing the back of his neck. I hestitated. A ball? Honestly it's not my scene. But crashing it? That sounded really fun. But we could also get in serious trouble. But it would be worth it. I guess my face was showing some hesitation because Percy just waved his hand and said "Yeah your right its stupid."
"No, no, no it's just that im not sure⦠but it sounds like major fun. We should do it." I said with a small smile. That smile grew as Percy's face lit up. "Awesome!" he shouted, drawing attention to us as we walked down the sidewalk. I laughed and dragged him to a small shop where we fooled around for half an hour.
Percy's POV:
"Seriously Percy! I am not wearing a dress." Annie exclaimed as I held up the white silk gown that honestly would look amazing at the ball thingy. I stuck out my tongue and put it back on the shiny rack of cloth and silk.
"Annabeth, I'm not letting you go looking like the goof ball you are." I said as we walked out of our 3rd shop of the day. The blondie looked up at me with an offended and shocked look.
"I do not dress like a goof ball!" she yelled, and pointed to her outfit. Several Japanese business men looked at her funny and started to whisper in their forign language. I laughed and patted her on the back.
"Sure just keep thinking that way Annie." She rolled her eyes and continued walking but I saw that she wanted to laugh.
"So where are we going?" I asked as she pulled out her phone and opened up the map.
"We are going there." The blonde replied as she pointed to a shop on the map. I squinted as I read the tiny print.
"It's a music store that I've been dying to go to. My parents told me that its run by American peope and have the type of music we like to listen to." She said excitedly before I could even get to the end of the name. I smiled in delght and gave her a high-five.
"Looks like we're going to have two bags full of CD's." I said as we approached the store. She laughed and nodded her head and opened the door that sounded a tiny bell. Then a small American man with gray hair.
"How may I help you?" he asked us, smiling at us particularly at Annie.
"Oh nothing, we just came to look." I said and pulled Annabeth to one of the aisles to look for some music.
"Percy," Annabeth called ushering me towards a booth with a whole array of My Chemical Romance and every other album me and Annabeth have ever loved set out. The only thing that was missing was Blood on the Dance Floor. So what basically happened is we spent a majority of our money on each and every album we saw. It's nice to actually have the album instead of an album you downloaded off iTunes ((sponser)).
As we were checking out a young girl with brown hair walked in. The next thing I knew, Annabeth was on the floor and Piper was hgging and squeling about how much she missed her. I pulled Annie up and Piper went rambling on about school and then she stopped.
"Why haven't you two been at school?" she asked warily and then her face looked like she figured out what we've been doing. She then smiled and tugged Annabeth off to the side. I blinked and the cashier coughed, telling me to pay.
Annabeth's POV:
Piper pulled me off to a eisle dedicated to Beilibers. I snorted in disgust then Piper said the most shocking thing. ((this is not supposed to be offesive towards Bielibers. If this did im sorry. This is just my opinion of Justin Biebers music))
"Annabeth are you dating Percy?" I stuttered and sputtered and finally said "No. But I wish!" Piper then smiled and I felt my face go pale as I realized that I just told her that I liked Percy. To someone who tell everyone everything. She skipped off and I couldn't shake myself out of my mental shock before I realized I needed to talk to her, before she walked out of the store and blended into the crowd of people. I walked back to Percy who was holding two bags of CD's. Handing me one, he asked
"What was that all about?"
"Nothing, she just needed me to explain." I said smiling up at him.
"Now lets go get ready for your ball thing.
