Well I am glad that you guys enjoyed chapter one so I decided to write a second chapter. Even if y'all don't review I am going to write more. I would really appreciate it if, instead of saying my story is great, to tell me things to do in upcoming chapter. It would be really helpful. If you didn't already guess-this IS a percabeth story. If you don't like it, don't read it. Please review (don't think that you can't tell me my story is good just because I tell you, be my guest. A great review here and there really boosts the self-esteem).

Chapter 2:

How do I put this...New York is awesome. There is no light way to put that. It had everything here. Beaches, cafes, movie theater and bowling alleys. Plus everyone walks to these places. After Percy took me to his sweet little beach we went to a small but subtle café just across from the ocean. Percy was obviously in cahoots with the owner because when we got there he took me up to the roof. There was one lone table with a perfect view.

"You come here often?" I asked Percy once we sat down with our coffee and bagels.

"Yeah, actually me and the mangers are friends so he lets me up here a bunch," Percy said with a mouth full of bagel and cream cheese.

Manager owner same difference, I thought as I sipped some coffee and looked out on the beach.

"So, New York, what do you think?" Percy asked whipping some spilled coffee off of his navy blue polo.

"It is Amazing, with a capital 'A'," I said laughing at Percy's attempt to clean himself off.

"Here," I said grabbing the napkin, "let some one with experience help."

Luckily, we bought a water bottle so the coffee would be easy to get off. It hadn't soaked in fully yet so I got it completely off. If Percy had been rubbing it to come off we would have been in trouble.

"Thanks," Percy mumbled, embarrassed.

"I'm not so cruel as to make you walked around with a coffee stain on you shirt," I pointed out walking back to my seat.

It was silent for a few minutes before Percy started to talk.

"What have you been up so since the last time we talked?" Percy asked taking a bite out of his bagel.

"School was been okay and my architecture class as been great," I said.

"What about friends?" Percy asked with a hint of curiosity.

I sighed. Frankly, everyone thought I was a freak because I would get all of the school books in Greek and took architecture class. I knew that Percy could tell when I lied so I decided to avoid that and tell the truth.

"To be frank, not good. Everyone thinks I'm a freak," I said getting quieter and quieter with every word.

"They think your a freak? Well, obviously they are idiots," Percy said making my head snap up.

"What?" I said surprised.

"They're idiots. If they think your a freak something is loose up there," Percy said pointing to his forehead.

"You're just saying that," I laughed, my face a little red.

"No, I'm serious. Are you done?" Percy asked pointing to my coffee.

I nodded. Percy grabbed it and started to walk down the stairs. Confused, I walked after him. The café was a bit more crowded now then when we first walked in. All the tables were full and there was a line at the counter. Good thing we got here early, I thought as Percy threw away the remains of my bagel and coffee.

"Jay!" Percy yelled making a tall brown-haired teenager turn around.

"We're heading out!" Percy shouted over the sound of chatter.

"Later Perce!" the boy named Jay shouted back.

Percy grabbed my arm and started pulling me through the crowd. People were stepping on my feet left and right but I kept walking determined to get fresh air. Percy shoved the door open and yanked me outside. It hurt but I was willing to look passed that since I was now out doors. It was late afternoon and I had no idea what Percy was going to show me next.

"Where to now?" I asked.

"Well, there is the movies or possibly Central Park..." Percy said and I could tell he wanted to go to the park.

"I choose the park," I said making a grin grow on his face.

"Great!" Percy exclaimed.

Once again Percy and I headed out. There was a slight breeze so it wasn't to warm. Trust me, I loved summer as much as the next person but too much sun was what I didn't enjoy. I knew that sunscreen would have been helpful, if only I listened to my father. Oh well, I thought as we arrived to the park. It was very pretty, what with the greenery everywhere it was hard to look away. I was surprised that there were never any wreaks over here from people just staring to the park but then again, they do live here.

"Follow me," Percy said taking the lead.

I just shrugged and trailed behind him. Every which way I looked I saw some sort of flower, not that I object. I picked a few when Percy wasn't looking and stuck it in my shoulder bag that hung below my waist. By the time we reached Percy's spot I about had every flower in Central Park. I laughed while Percy shook his head when he saw my menagerie.

Percy had taken me to a little bench the sat below a beautiful willow tree. But what caught my eye was an owl, perched on the bench arm rest. I looked at Percy, who wasn't moving or breathing from what I could tell. I quickly shooed it away and grabbed Percy's arm, forcing him to sit.

"It was just a coincidence?" I tried to say but it came out of my mouth as a question.

"Um...yeah, just a coincidence," Percy assured me, but mostly himself.

My mom has been trying to scare (or kill) Percy Jackson ever since he was claimed as son of Poseidon. She doesn't particularly like my friendship with Percy. But it isn't my fault that she hates Poseidon. Just because he is Poseidon's son doesn't mean I have to hate Percy. I let out a realized sigh when the color returned to Percy's face.

"Your such a wimp," I muttered under my breath.

That caught Percy's attention. "Excuse me?" Percy asked a smile starting to form on his lips.

"I said that you are a wimp," I repeated, satisfied with his reaction.

"Am I?" Percy said picking me up bridal style then falling to the ground.

"Totally!" I exclaimed, starting to run laughing all the while.

"It's on!" Percy yelled running after me.

He was catching up to me. I know that I was faster and so did he but I have to give him props, he is clever. Percy knew that when he got closer I was just going to run fast so he jumped and tackled me, football style. By now if we weren't laughing before we were now. I got a crap and was on the verge of tears and I don't think Percy was far from that either.

"Nicely played for a seaweed brain," I said through burst of laughter.

"You run fast Wise girl, I thought I was about to hurl!" Percy yelled still laughing.

After a few minutes of catching our breath Percy helped me up and we headed back toward his building. Sally was finished with her spaghetti and I was starved. We had key lime pie for desert and then I took a shower. The water was warm and felt good on the goose bumps that now covered my body. Boy, the Jackson's knew how to keep their apartment cold. Once I got out of the shower I went in to Percy's room, told him good night, then went to bed. I fell asleep right when my head hit the pillow, excited for what tomorrow would bring.

AN: I really enjoyed writing the last part of this and I hope you enjoy reading it. Please review, thanks!
