A/N: Hey guys. I wanted to post yesterday, but then it turned out I had to do some stuff for school. I'm about to start my third week at my new school. So my posts may be a bit irregular. I'm not really happy with this chapter, but I didn't want to alter it any more. So I'm just posting it. Thanks for the reviews. Every time I read them I feel bad for not posting so I start writing again.

Disclaimer: I don't own Kickin' It. Or Percy Jackson…. Just read.

I feel like Cinderella.

Kim's POV

The ball was tomorrow night and Jack had been here every day since my parents announced it. So one time I asked him. 'You're really sneaky aren't you?' When he appeared out of nowhere again. He just grinned and said: 'I try my best.' I am still slightly suspicious. But I have to admit I am actually very glad he has been seeing me. I mean. I feel that thrill. The adventure I've always been looking for. The sneaking around, always watching my back. I whine to him, but honestly. I love it. My mom has been running around commanding people to do stuff like she's my brother. Well now at least now we know where he gets it from. I have been pulled out of my room for the most ridiculous things. Jack had to hide somewhere in my room once. He just disappeared like usual. So I really don't know where he was. Well at least my mom didn't see him either.

Do you know how scary it was when I came back? I entered my room and it seemed empty. So I call out: 'Jack?' and I just hear this soft snicker. It really seemed to come from everywhere. And I hear a soft thump, turn around. And there he is. Like I've said before. Bloody thief's. Anyway. It's late and tomorrow is the ball. Now I know I said I would be nice, and behave. But now. I really don't feel like it. It's just that every time I see my mom, she looks so busy, but also so happy. I can't take that away. She may look strict. But I love her.

Jack's POV:

I've worked out my plan completely. Jerry and Jason are the only ones who know what I'm planning. And I'd like it keep it that way. That's why it may not have been the best idea to tell Jerry. But hey! You only live once. I think. I'm not actually sure… but I'll just assume. I'm currently in a tree. It's the day of the ball and I'm waiting for someone. Because you see, I actually did my research this time. Instead of just jumping into something head first. You see, for me, four days of preparation is a long time. Usually I have minutes. If not seconds.

So yeah, for my game, I'm prepared. I sit up as I finally hear hooves. Well well, look what I spy with my little eye. A prince. Or well, royal, lord. But prince sounds better. More dramatic. I lean from between the branches of my tree. He's wearing a fancy costume and there's a mask around his neck. He seems about the same height and weight as me. Exactly what I was looking for. When he's close enough, I drop myself from my tree. And before he can do anything. I just hit him straight across the face. He falls from his horse. Well that was easy. These lords are not what they used to be.

I grab his horse's reins and tie them to a tree. Last thing I need is my new horse running away. I drag my new best friend into the forest and I… borrow his costume and mask. I tie the latter in front of my face. Awesome. Everything fits. I take the invitation out of my, or his, pocket. Thank you… lord Perseus Jackson of Half-blood Hill. (A/N: Sorry couldn't help myself). I grin behind my mask and climb on the horse. Masked ball, here I come.

I ride towards the castle. The horse is a bit restless. I guess it realizes I'm not Lord Perseus of what was it again. Well as long as the horse is the only one. I smirk behind my mask. I ride onto the square in front of the castle. And I have to say. It's beautiful. There are candles everywhere, it makes all kind of shadows over the castle walls. And there are shimmering… garlands everywhere. Wow, in four days these people sure know how to make a party. Well except for the fact I can hear the waltz music here. That's too bad, I was at least hoping for some jazz. A waiter or something comes towards me and holds my horse. So I get off. I walk towards the entrance and try to look very Lordy. Even though I have no clue how to do that.

I just put my cocky smile on my face, and try and act like the arrogant Lords I see every day. I keep my chin up and walk towards the two waiters at the door. 'Invitation please.' One of the men asks and I fish the paper out of my pocket. I hand it over to him. He looks at it and then at me. He seems to think it's legit. 'Welcome Lord Jackson.' Right he means me. I give him a quick smile from behind my mask and walk into the hall. It's huge. I've never gone into the castle the right way. Or through the dungeons. Or through Kim's window.

It's stunning. Candles throw dancing shadows on the high marble walls. Everything says, we are rich. We are better, more powerful. It may be gorgeous, but it also reminds me I'm just about and mouse compared to these people. Although I do think mouse's are seriously underestimated. I walk through the hall and just follow the music. When I enter the big dance hall thing. I'm momentarily stunned. There are couples everywhere, swirling around, in circles, waltzing. Flying skirts, full of colour. The men mostly in black, blue and green.

It was like nothing I had ever seen. All the way on the other side of the hall were four thrones. Two bigger ones and two smaller ones. Three of them were taken. The two bigger ones and one of the smaller ones. The King, the Queen and the prince or princess. Probably the prince because Kim is probably wearing green. Great we match. Perseus costume is dark green. The only thing bothering me right now is the fact that Perseus and I do have the same hair colour. But his eyes are like sea green, and mine are, well, not sea green.

I quickly move between the dancing pairs to the edge of the room where at least I don't almost get trampled every second. Okay. I always thought nobles among each other would be nice to one another. Apparently not. I've already gotten a few very fowl looks from these guys, just because the girl they were dancing with looked at me. Can I help it I'm so fine? No. Okay sorry. Arrogance is infectious.

I'm looking at the dancing couples trying to find Kim. Then I finally spot her dancing with this guy. Maybe it's just my imagination, but she doesn't seem to be very happy. I make my way towards them. I have no clue if there are rules for this kind of thing so I just tap the guy on the shoulder. He looks at me from behind his mask. 'Mind if I take over?' I ask. I see Kim freeze at the sound of my voice. 'No, go ahead.' He says and walks away. I smirk and turn to Kim. 'Good evening milady, may I enjoy the pleasure of you company in a dance?' Honestly I'm just throwing around fancy words, but she seems impressed. And stunned. Mostly stunned.

So I just take her hand. Put the other on my shoulder and place my remaining hand on her waist. Now you may think. Jack what are you doing, you're going to make a huge fool out of yourself. But no, I won't at least, not with dancing. My mom taught me how to waltz and a few other steps and dances. Kim's eyes are still wide behind het white mask. Can I just say, she looks gorgeous. Her green dress sparkles and shimmers with every move she makes. Her gold blonde hair is half up and curled. And the white lace mask hiding her face can't cover up her deep brown eyes. I smile. 'Don't faint okay, that's attention that I don't need.' I grin. Finally there seems to be some movement in here face. We're waltzing between the rest with seeming ease. I think she hasn't realized that.

'How did you get in?' she finally asks and I laugh. It's such a careless sound between the serious notes of the waltz, it sounds even more out of place then it really is. 'I had help from a… friend.' I tell her, and I watch as realization dawns. 'You rob a nobleman?!' she hisses at me. I quickly look around. No one seems to have hear her. 'No, I didn't rob him. I just borrowed his clothes, horse and invitation without permission. But I intend on bringing them back.' I grin at her, very pleased with my own smartness.

She gives me a very stern look. Then she frowns and looks at her feet. They're moving in perfectly with the beat. 'And where did you learn to do this?' She asks me. 'My mom taught me. Waltz, tango, some jazz moves, and well, the parties where I go to, we dance too. Just not like you guys dance.' I tell her. She seems impressed. 'Tell me.' I start. 'Aren't you glad I came?' I ask. I am actually curious about this so I try not to grin. She looks me right in the eye. Brown meets brown.

'Yeah, yeah I'm glad you came.'

A/N: Hey guys. Thanks for reading. Yes Percy is in the story too. I'm a huge fan of Percy Jackson and the Olympians from the brilliant Rick Riordan. So I figured, Annabeth was in there. So now Percy to. Review please.
