Annabeth

Getting drunk was the fun part. Waking up from a hangover was the part where you get an excruciating headache. Grimacing, I managed to sit up from the bed I was sleeping in and began rubbing my aching temples to figure out what happened after drinking all that beer. I glanced at a full-length mirror beside the bed. My memory resembled my appearance. My perfect hair was all tangled and messy while my eyes were grey and hazy with splotches of red. After managing to get out of bed and finding the bathroom, I splashed cool water on my face and combed my tangled hair. Since I wasn't at home and I wasn't at Katie's, I took out a piece of mint gum from my bag and chewed it as a replacement for brushing my teeth, hoping whoever lived here wouldn't notice how horrid my breath smelled.

I walked down the hall where the area divided between a living room and a dining room which led to a kitchen. On one of the sofas in the living room, a familiar-looking guy with tousled black hair lay sleeping with his mouth slightly open and a small trail of drool was pouring down. I would've laughed a little if he wasn't shirtless. I swallowed nervously; even if I've seen Luke shirtless before, I couldn't help but stare at the muscles on his arms and his tanned six-pack. Shaking myself out of my daze, I walked over to the couch and lightly shook his shoulder.

"Hey, Percy, wake up," I called softly, but I got no response. I shook harder.

"Percy Jackson, wake up," I called louder. Nothing.

Sighing, I stopped shaking him and tried to think. Then, an idea formed in my mind. As my mom always says, a daughter of Athena always has a plan. I went to the kitchen, grabbed a cup and filled it with water. Going back to the living room, I dipped my fingers in the cup and flicked water at his face. At first, he simply stirred and mumbled, "That tickles." After flicking water into his face a couple more times, I shrugged and splashed the entire cup of water into his face. He sputtered and jolted awake, sitting up quickly as if the couch suddenly caught on fire.

"I'm up, Mom, I'm up!" he exclaimed. He turned around frantically and finally his red-rimmed green eyes turned to find my snickering face. His expression turned from panicked to embarrassment to annoyance.

"Very funny, Wise Girl," he said to me, getting up from the couch and shaking water off his hair. I kept laughing, but inside, I couldn't help noticing how hot his abs looked glistening with water.

"Yes it was, Seaweed Brain. Does your mom always wake you up with water?" I asked, still smiling at his surprised reaction.

"Only when I've got a hard time waking up."

"Does that mean every time?"

"Oh shut up. And just when I was gonna ask you if you wanted breakfast."

"Sure, I'd like some breakfast," I thanked, still smiling. "Just as long as you don't burn down the apartment. By the way, whose apartment is this?"

"Juniper's. She was nice enough to let the both of us crash here."

"Cool. So who was the one carrying me last night?"

He stopped rummaging for food to cook and looked at me, confused.

"Don't you remember anything about last night?"

I shook my head. "Just drinking a lot, ending up at the beach, hearing voices, and someone carrying me before I passed out."

He looked away, lost in thought.

"Did anything happen last night? Anything I need to know?" I asked.

Percy turned back to look at me and it seemed as if he was going to answer my question.

Instead, he said, "You like your eggs scrambled or sunny-side up?"

Percy

"Scrambled," she answered, frowning slightly at my question. I knew from her expression that she was probably hoping I'd ask something else. But there are some things that were best she didn't know.

My vision was still a bit hazy but I could make out a familiar blond lyin' wasted on the sand.

"Gamóto (holy shit) it's Wise Girl," I muttered to myself, scooping her up in my arms. I turned around and almost walked straight into a smirking Rachel. Damn, when did she get here?

"What's she doing here?" she demanded, crossing her arms over her chest.

"Passed out and drunk, what do you think?" I snapped back at her. I was getting sick of Rachel. She acts like she has a right to control me when I'm no longer hers.

"Leave me alone, Rachel, you're not the boss of me," I said, trying not to fall as I walked away.

"Well, you're in no state to drive her home. Let someone else do it and I can take you home myself," she tried persuading me, placing her red, long-nailed hand on my shoulder and leaning in close to me. I shrugged her off, almost tripping over myself in the process. Someone's hand steadied me.

"Dare, leave him alone. He's not your man to control anymore. Actually, he never was," Juniper ordered. "Besides, you've taken a few shots yourself. I haven't so I'll take these two to my place."

Rachel's smirk turned into the cool smile of a killer cobra.

"You know, Green, if you didn't have that stupid crush on Grover the environmental bum, I'd assume you like Percy too."

Juniper's green eyes flared up, the way they always did either when she's in a fight or when she's angry. She stomped towards Rachel and slapped her hard across the face, judging from the loud clap and the red mark on her cheek.

"Well, you did assume and with the way it's spelled, you're an ass. A bitchy ass," Juniper spat, walking away from a speechless Rachel while tugging me along.

"Stop staring, Jackson, and get in the car," she instructed to me, the fire in her eyes dimming slowly.

I followed Juniper to her Honda Hybrid and placed Annabeth in the backseat. I totally forgot about Connor and Chris till after I safely buckled her in.

"You gonna win the bet so easy, Perce, and fuck her while she's out?" yelled Connor. I turned around and looked for the stupid bastard.

"Skáse, tha maláka (Shut the fuck up, you asshole), I don't fuck helpless chicks!"

"Whatever, you're gonna lose anyway," yelled Chris.

Ignoring them, I collapsed into the front seat next to Juniper.

"Thanks," I muttered to her.

"No prob," she answered, starting up the car and backing out into the road. "But nobody can keep helping you fend off Rachel. Ever told her you're over her?"

"Well, I haven't 'cause I'm not."

"Pretend you are. Maybe if you pretend you moved on, you will."

"Then please kindly explain to me how I can get her na me afísei móno (to leave me alone)," I said sarcastically.

"Your solution is over there," she said seriously, pointing behind her to the backseat. "You're using her for the bet, aren't you? Use that to your advantage."

"Aren't I already usin' her for my advantage with her bein' my partner and shit?"

"Well, make it look like you're dating her or something. If you look like you moved on, Rachel will leave you alone."

"You think so?"

"Yeah. Just don't fall to deeply. You're in enough shit as it is. You don't need to drag her into it."

"I think I already have."

"So what are we doing after breakfast?" Annabeth asked, chewing her eggs while looking at me with analyzing grey eyes.

"Are you looking at my abs?" I teased her, smiling as I watched her expression changed to surprise, disbelief, and embarassment.

"I am not!" she insisted, her cheeks coloring up as she spoke. "Besides, you have nothing I haven't seen."

"Wanna bet?" I asked, reaching down to the button of my pants. Her eyes widened.

"I really don't-"

"Whoa, Percy, please keep your pants on," Juniper said behind me. Grinning, I turned towards her.

"Calm down, Juniper, I was only kidding."

"Well, Annabeth looks a bit shocked."

I glanced back at Annabeth and she didn't look shocked, only embarrassed, judging by her blush.

"I wasn't gonna rape you or anything," I pointed out.

"Whatever. Oh, by the way, Katie Gardner called a few times last night," Juniper told her, holding out her phone and Annabeth took it.

"Thanks. What did she say?"

"I just told her you'd be crashing at my place and she said to bring you to her place."

"Okay," she said, her eyes turning misty. Wonder if she's trying to remember last night. For her sake, I hope not.

And that's all for this chapter! Hope it was worth the wait and keep reviewing!
