Chapter 2 - Why me?!
Annabeth's POV
I was reading Hogwarts: A History at Flourish and Blotts Bookseller when suddenly someone bumped into me. The book fell to the ground.
'I'm sorry,' the one who bumped into me said and bent down to pick it up. I looked up to see a girl who was about my age. She has long red hair and blue eyes.
She smiled at me and then she looked down at the book. 'Oh, Hogwarts: A History. I'm guessing you are going to Hogwarts too?' she asked and handed it back to me.
'Yes,' I said and smiled back.
'I'm Rose, by the way,' Rose said.
'Anna-,' I started to say but was interrupted by a scream.
'ANNABETH!'
I scowled and looked at my annoying twin brother, Jack, who was running towards me.
Oh, sorry. I forget to introduce myself. My name is Annabeth Chase. As you just find out I have an annoying twin brother. Who is always trying to point out that he is the older one. He do it mostly becaus he is smaller than me and that pisses him off. Plus I had an older sister who is in her second year at Hogwarts. She in Gryffindor. (I, on the other hand, want to go in Ravebclaw; like me mum.) We all had blond hair like our mum and dad. Jack and I had grey eyes like her too, but Emma has brown eyes like our dad. At first sight you won't thing that we are siblings, because Emma looks more like dad while Jack and I look more like our mum, especially I look like her. I even act like her sometimes, that's why Emma and Jack sometimes jokingly call me 'little mama'. (Yeah, they are the jokers in our family.)
'Why are you screaming?' I hissed at him when he runs closer.
'Guess who I just met,' he asked, ignoring my question. He was literally jumping up and down from excitement.
I sighed. 'Who did you met?'
He stopped jumping. 'C'mon, Annie,' he said annoyingly, 'try guess.'
I sighed again, knowing that he won't stop until I take a guess. So I said the first thing that cross my mind. 'Harry Potter?'
For some reason Rose shifted a little. She looked somehow uneasy.
Even thought that I grew up in the US, in New York, I knew about this famous wizard form England, because my mum went to Hogwarts when she was my age. She even participated in the battle against lord Voldemort. And of course she had told the story of how Harry Potter defeated him to me, Jack and Emma for like a billion times.
I know that it couldn't be Harry Potter Jack met, because he is not the kind of person to go all fangirl like when he met a famous person. I mean, yeah Harry Potter is famous, but he is only a person so let him breath, people. After what happened to him when he was in such a young age, he deserves a break from all the craziness from out there.
'Noooo,' Jack said slowly. 'I saw Piper and Leo! They are going to Hogwarts too!' he exclaimed and started jumping again.
My eyes widened ans. 'Are you serious?!'
I can't believe it! Piper is going to Hogwarts too?! Why didn't she tell me anything! (Well I haven't told her anything about me going to Hogwarts either, but I was planning to.) I can't wait till I tell Thalia about this.
'Absolutely,' he said. 'They wanted to surprise us; I ruined it, so sue me. But do you know what does this mean? Seven years full of pranks, with my buddies!'
'I think you meant buddy, because Piper won't do your stupid pranks,' I told him.
'No, by buddies I meant, Leo and James, duh,' he said, in a matter-of-fact tone. 'And by the way how could you be that sure about Piper not joinong our little prank club?'
Rose next to me shifted again. I face palmed myself inwardly. 'Sorry, Rose. Having an idiotic brother made me forgot about good manners. Rose meet my twin brother Jack, Jack meet Rose.'
'Hi,' he said and gave her a friendly smile.
'Nice to meet you,' Rose said back and smiled too.
'Jack! Annabeth!' I looked up again to see Emma calling for us. 'Come on, mum is calling.'
I turned to Rose, 'Sorry, I have to go. I hope to see you at school. It was nice meeting you.'
'Me too,' Rose said and waved at us. 'See you soon.'
I then run with Jack towards Emma.
Today was finally the day. We were currently at the platform 9 ¾ at King's Cross station in London.
'I just hope that I won't be sorted into a house where there would be a lot of idiots,' James said behind me. 'Or worst, share a room with an idiot or with a bigheaded snob.'
He has been Jack's best friends since they were 4years old, while his older sister Thalia was my best friend. Then there was Jason. Jason was James's and Thalia's half-brother, because apparently their father Zeus cheated on their mum Hera. (I don't like her but I hate more cheating men.) But they welcomed him like he was theirs.
Jack looked at him and then said, 'Well I know for sure that there would be always at least one idiot, whichever house you will be sorted in or with whoever you share the room with.'
'How could you be so sure about that?' James looked surprised.
'Because you'll be in there,' Jack said and headed towards the train.
James stopped and looked stunned for a little. Then: 'Hey! Come back here! JACK!' and run after him.
Emma, Thalia and Jason laughed.
'Wow,' Emma said. 'He figured it pretty fast this time. Guess that this is a new record. How long did it take him the last time?'
'Two days,' Jason chuckled.
'Which proves that Jack has a point there you know?' Thalia said with a smirk. She is in the third year and she was in Gryffindor too. So for two years she had teased me about how much fun it was at Hogwarts and that I have to wait until I can go too.
I hated her for that.
When we finally had all of our language in the train we said bye to our family. Emma, Jack and I hugged our mum goodbye. Our dad wasn't there. Because after Jack and I were born our mum finally told him that she is a witch. He freaked out and abandoned us. My mum quickly recovered and raised us up all alone. She is Athena Chase, the world most famous architecture. She is known in the muggle world as well as in the magic world. And I want to be architecture too.
She hugged us, 'Have fun. I'll write to you every week if you want to. And remember that I don't care much about where you got sorted in. Just try to make your house to be proud of you.'
Then we were at the train, waving from the windows and when we couldn't see the platform anymore we split up.
'I'm going to look for Jules,' Emma told us.
Jack snickered. 'That's the guy you wrote with all summer? Is he your boyfriend or something?'
Emma smacked him upside the head.
'Ow!'
'Look after him, Annie,' she told me and run off.
'Oh come on you big baby, let's go find Piper and Leo,' I said and dragged him to find our friends, Thalia, James and Jason right behind us.
Annabeth will met Percy in next chapter! (Or maybe not... Just kidding!) Who is as excited as I'm?
Please let me know what do you think about this chapter! :)
