Thanks fro the reviews i got. there was only a few but they were all nice so i'm glad people are actually enjoying my story. Enjoy! :D
Chapter 4 –Spreading Rumours (I couldn't think of anything better :P)
Annabeth's P.O.V
I pushed her onto the floor and started pulling her hair. She screamed right down my ear and by now, the whole cafeteria was watching us.
"Annabeth, no!" Thalia shouted. She came up to us both and started pulling me off her.
If Thalia, wasn't holding me back, she would be dead.
Drew was trying to get up. "Is someone going to help me or what?"
Luke ran to her side and helped her up. They both glared at me.
"You will pay for this," she said and strutted off with Luke.
When she left, everyone was dead quiet.
Suddenly, everyone started to cheer. I just stood there confused.
"No one has ever done that to Drew," Clarisse paused. "It was awesome!"
"I'm kinda scared of you know," Tyson said with fear. I just laughed.
"I didn't think you had it in you," Thalia said and we high fived.
"Me neither. I just got angry. I can't believe people thought that I would actually push Percy. Which idiot started that rumour anyway?"
"Well the only person who was with you when it happened was…" Grover thought for a bit.
"Luke!" We all said at the same time.
"He wouldn't, would he?" Nico asked.
"Well, judging from what he said to me when we broke up, I wouldn't be surprised," I said thinking back to the argument we had.
"Wait, what did he say?" Grover asked confused.
Oh yeah. I only told Thalia.
I looked at Thalia because I didn't really want everyone to know, and she instantly understood.
"Um," she started, "Let's not talk about that right now."
Everyone got the message and went quiet.
"Drew said that you will pay," Tyson said, "What do you think she'll do?"
I thought and said, "I don't know but I'll keep an eye out."
Everyone nodded and we all went back to lunch.
*After school still in Annabeth's P.O.V*
I opened the front door and walked in. Bobby and Mathew were running around the house with pieces of Lego in their hands. I just ignored them and went up to my room.
When I walked in. I put my bag on the floor, shut the door, and lay down on my bed.
What a long day, I thought.
I wondered what the worse Drew could do to me. She wouldn't go to extreme. Probably embarrass me in front of the whole school.
Before I knew it, my eyes drooped shut and I fell asleep.
*The next day at school still in Annabeth's P.O.V.*
I took a seat in class and started copying out what the teacher was writing on the board. After I finished all the work I just sat there waiting for lunch.
I was going to visit Percy after school today. I still felt bad for what happened so I bought him some chocolates, knowing he'll like them because hospital food is just plain nasty.
The bell rang and I walked out of the classroom. I waited for Thalia, and then we both walked to our lockers to put our books away.
When we reached the lockers, a note was taped to it reading, 'Loser'.
"Wow. If this is her revenge then you have nothing to worry about," Thalia said.
I just shrugged and opened my locker.
"AAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" I screamed at the top of my voice.
Everyone stopped and stared at me. I was too busy looking at the spiders in my locker. One jumped on me and I screamed again.
"Thalia, get it off! Get it off!" I shrieked.
"Okay, stay still."
I did as I was told and she carefully picked the spider off me and put it back in my locker.
I slammed my locker door shut when Drew walked up to me.
"I told you I would get revenge," she said.
"Hey everyone!" she said louder this time, "Anniebeth looks like she wants to cry!"
Everyone laughed and I ran to the girls toilets.
I ran into the cubicle and sat on the toilet seat. I had never been so embarrassed and scared. Only my friends knew I was scared of spiders so how did Drew find out?
I thought for a while then realised, I had told Luke when we were dating. I couldn't believe he would tell her that. I swore, they were both as evil as each other.
Well there's no point sulking in here, I thought. I stood up, dusted myself off and walked out the toilets.
I walked into someone and realised it was Thalia.
"Hey, Annabeth. I just came to check if you were okay-"
"I'm fine Thals," I smiled.
"Okay then, do you want to go get some lunch?"
"Sure," I answered.
We both walked to lunch and I ignored all the stares I got from everyone.
*After school at the hospital*
I walked up to the reception desk and asked if I could see Percy Jackson. They agreed and asked me if I knew what room he was in. I nodded and walked up to his room.
I knocked on the door and heard a faint, "Come in."
I walked in and slowly shut the door.
"Hey Percy," I smiled and walked over to the seat next to his bed.
"Hey."
"You look slightly better, how d'you feel?"
"Better than yesterday," he smiled.
"That's good. I brought you something, since I still felt a little guilty." I went in my school bag and pulled out the chocolates.
"You don't need to feel gui-" he saw the chocolates then said. "Or maybe you could a little."
I laughed and handed him the chocolates. "Don't hurt yourself seaweed brain."
"Yeah, yeah." He took a chocolate and said, "But seriously, you shouldn't feel guilty."
"I didn't think you could ever be serious," I grinned.
"Ha Ha, very funny," he said sarcastically.
"So then. How was school?"
I debated whether I should tell him about the rumours and what happened with Drew. I decided to because he was my best friend and he would tell me.
I told him everything that happened.
"Luke can be a real jerk," he said.
I just nodded.
"Are you okay about the spider thing? I can't believe she would do something like that."
"Yeah I'm fine," I said.
"I would've paid to see you fight with Drew though," he said laughing.
I just laughed with him because from another person's point of view, it must've looked funny.
"Well let's not dwell on the past. You don't understand how boring it is in here. All I do is wake up, eat, watch tv, eat, sleep, eat and then sleep again. You being here is like the highlight of the past two days!"
I laughed and said, "Well thanks, seaweed brain."
After that we talked for a while about random things. He was so fun to be around and I'm glad I can call him my best friend.
After an hour or so we ran out of things to talk about.
"Wanna watch tv for a bit?" he asked.
I just shrugged and he turned the tv on. He moved over on his bed and patted the empty space next to him.
I smiled and rolled my eyes but joined him.
Percy's P.O.V
We both sat there watching a funny cartoon. Every so often we would make fun of the cartoon characters and how they act stupid.
After an hour or so I realised it was getting late.
"Annabeth, I think you should go now. Visiting hours will be over soon."
I got no response. "Annabeth," I tried again.
I looked over at her and she was fast asleep. Very clever, wisegirl, I thought. I was about to wake her when I realised that she looked so cute when she was asleep.
I couldn't think about her like that though so I carefully tapped her shoulder. "Annabeth, wakey wakey. You need to get up."
She slowly opened her eyes. I met her beautiful grey eyes and she blushed. I looked the other way and cleared my throat.
"Thanks, Percy." She got off the bed and grabbed her bag. "I'll visit you again soon. Bye!"
I waved bye to her. When she was out of the room I sighed and lay back down.
Annabeth's P.O.V.
I slowly opened my eyes to meet Percy's green eyes. We stayed like that for a few seconds when I blushed. He turned away and cleared his throat.
I said thanks to him and grabbed my bag. We said bye to each other and I walked out smiling.
I don't know what just happened between us, I thought, but I think I liked it.
That's it for now! I don't know if you've noticed but i've tried to make the chapters longer so i hope this is okay. please R&R!
