Chapter 3
PERCY POV
"So why did you join the Prom Committee?" I asked Annabeth.
She looked at me with a weird expression. I just shrugged and waited for her reply.
"Well, I really want to be an architect, so I figured this might give me practice," She said.
"What about you?" She asked.
"Well… it's for extra credit," I said.
"Really? You don't seem like the extra credit type," She said looking at me with those stormy gray eyes of hers.
"Fine, my grades aren't the best so the only way to bring up my grades is to be on the Prom Committee. So it is like extra credit, but it wasn't my choice. Unless I have a brilliant excuse for having a D- in Latin," I said.
"Nice. You know, I could help you out in Latin. I'm getting an A+, so I could bump you up a few grades," She said.
I was shocked at her offer. But, I could hang out with her more. So, why not?
"Sure, thanks. When do we start?" I asked.
"Tonight, six o' clock, my house?" She asked.
I nodded as if to say, okay.
"Great. Now, let's get to work." She said.
She told me she was going to grab come material out of the closet.
Right when she left, Rachael texted me.
(Slanted is Percy, underlined is Rachael.)
Hey Percy.
Hi.
How's Prom Committee?
Uuuuhhh… really nice people.
Oh, what kind of people?
Uuuuhhh… people from my Latin class.
Like who?
Uuuuhhh… got to go!
Right when I clicked send, Annabeth came back.
"Okay, I found a ton of red, pink, purple, blue, green, orange, and yellow material," She said, laying everything out on a table.
"Wow, lots of colors," I said, shocked at how she can find- and hold all those fabrics.
"Well, since it's going to be near the end of the school year, I figured we should have a lot of colors," She said.
"Oh yeah," I said.
"Okay, so I was thinking that maybe tomorrow we could start making small decorations," She said.
Then Annabeth looked at me, waiting for a reply.
"Well?" She asked, narrowing her eyes at me.
Oh, um, yeah," I said.
"Okay. Well out time is up," Annabeth said, putting everything on to the corner of the table.
"Okay. So, do we do this thing every day?" I asked.
Annabeth chuckled, and then nodded her head.
"Well, see you tonight. Bring your notebook, and Latin book," She said, counting off everything with her fingers.
"Okay. Can you write your address down?" I asked.
She nodded then looked for a paper and pen. When she found one, (buried deep in her back pack) she scribbled some words and numbers on the piece of paper, then handed it over.
"Thanks see you tonight," I said.
"Okay, bye." Annabeth said.
We both waved to each other then went our separate ways. Sort of…
When I got to my car, all I could think about was her.
It was five o' clock so I still had an hour before our study date.
My phone beeped which means someone texted me.
Must be Rachael. Oh yeah, she's my girlfriend.
Guess I have to call this study date a, two friends studying together hour.
I like study date much better.
If only it could be true.
I pulled into the driveway to my house.
Better get ready for my study da- I mean, two friends studying together hour. Man that's a mouthful.
I know, I know, stupid ending to a chapter. The next chapter should have a cliffhanger. Maybe I can have it up in the next few hours. You never know…
Also, the same person told me that students learn Egyptian Mythology in 7th grade. My brother JUST told me about that last night when we were talking about The Red Pyramid. So, let's just say, that since this school is different, they learn about Egyptian Mythology in high school.
