Heyz! Sorry about the long update time. I'm on holiday break, but you know, it's HOLIDAY break, so I was celebrating for the past couple of days. I wish you all a happy holiday and new year!

But back to my story, I kind of wanted Percy and Annabeth to be best friends, just like they are in the book. And they're going to be in love as well, but don't like to admit it, just like the book as well.

And I guess the Piper part is kind of randomly thrown in there, but I didn't really put her in much. So here's her debut.

But this is really important, who's chapter should be next? And what should the boys do at guys night out? Please answer these in a review because without them, I won't be able to update.

I love you all and you mean the world to me! Enjoy!

Eleven (Percy):

I'm getting sick of all this drama. I mean, who isn't? Life when your famous is always dramatic and most of the times, you can't do anything about it. In my case, it's one of those times. I mean, this doesn't even involve me, yet technically, I'm still involved. What I mean is that this whole conflict has nothing to do with me. But I'm still dragged into it because of my cousins. Life is complicated and annoying sometimes. And right now, it's one of those situations.

"You look stressed," someone says as they sit down across from me on a chair that surrounds the small round table. I pick my head up from the table to see that blonde girl, Annabeth.

"You can say that," I smile slightly.

"What's up?" she asks me.

"Long story," I sigh.

"Is it that whole Nico and Thalia thing?" Annabeth cocks her head at me.

"Kind of," I admit. "It has a lot to do with Bianca, his dead sister."

"Oh…" she says quietly. "If you need anything, tell me!"

"Okay," I nod and she starts to get up. I take her wrist and pull her back into her chair.

"What was that for?" Annabeth questions me.

"I need a best friend right now," I tell her. "So you're going to stay here and listen to my problems.

"You know when people ask you if you need anything, you're supposed to say no, right? You're not supposed to complain about you're amazing rock star life to them." Annabeth laughs.

"I think I'm technically a pop star," I correct her jokingly.

"Whatever," she rolls my eyes. "Same difference."

"I think it's because my music is more upbeat and poppy than Nico and Thalia's…" I start to explain but she cuts me off.

"I hate to say this, but I don't really care."

"I figured," I shrug. "But you're my best friend right now, so you have to listen to me."

"Fine. What else do you have to say?" Annabeth taps her foot impatiently at the ground.

I check my watch. "Well, I've only got an hour before I have to go to guys' night out…"

"Wait!" she cuts me off once again. "You guys are having a guys' night out?"

"Yeah," I nod. "As I was saying before…" I start up again. "I only have an hour before I have to leave, so I'll tell you my dream I had last night."

"Is it boring?"

"If you think a koala stealing my ice cream cone boring, then yes," I reply.

"That's highly unrealistic," she smirks.

"I wish it happened."

"Why?" Annabeth raises an eyebrow at me. "Isn't it a bad thing?"

"But seeing a koala eating ice cream would be cute, so in the long run, it'd be worth it." I explain.

She laughs. "Percy, sometimes I wonder why you're so crazy."

"I always wonder that," I smile. "It's just part of my boyish charm." (A/N: Hey! Does anyone know what that is from? That boyish charm thing. It's been bothering me and I have no idea where I got it from, but I know it's from something!)

"You're boyish charm?" Annabeth snickers.

"Yeah," I nod. "It's what makes girls like me, you know, besides my good looks."

"I'm glad this whole best friend thing is only temporary," she tells me.

"Why?" I cock my head at her.

"You have an ego."

"It's just pretend, trust me." I inform her. "And I was kind of hoping we could keep this whole best friend thing going."

"You like talking to me that much?" Annabeth asks me.

"It's nice actually have friends for once. Being famous means that you have no time for anyone or anything but your music. It means that you can never get close to someone because you always have to leave. And being here means that I finally have the opportunity to hang out with people and have friends that I don't have to ditch after a few days." I clarify.

"So it has nothing to do with me as a person? You just want a friend, and you could care less who it is?" Annabeth questions me.

"No!" I exclaim. "Wait… yes? I'm confusing myself. Which is the right answer?" she gives me a look. "Sorry… But it does have to do with you. I chose you to be my best friend. And yeah, I want friends but I care who they are. I don't want to be friends with someone who can't even hold a conversation with me just because I'm really famous…"

"There goes your boyish charm again," Annabeth jokes.

"What?" I raise an eyebrow at her.

"You're craziness and your ego," she answers. "That's your boyish charm."

"Yeah…" I smirk. "I get that a lot."

Piper:

"I can't believe you guys are going out without me!"

"Well, they don't call it 'guys night out' for nothing," Leo smirks at me.

"This isn't the time for jokes," I roll my eyes at my best friend.

"Come on," Jason says. "It won't be that bad."

"I don't talk to like, anyone here! Ariella and Cassia are way younger than me, Annabeth has to study, Thalia has to sort things out with Nico, and that leaves me alone with Calypso! And we don't get along… at all!"

"Just… try?" he suggests.

"I've been living with her since September… It's February now and I've survived…"

"Then you can make it to the end of the year," Leo grins.

"That wasn't what I was going for," I cross my arms.

"Well, there's nothing we can do about your problem," he tells me.

"Yes!" I nod. "You two can stay here with me…"

"No!" Leo objects. "We're going partying! There's no way I'm passing this up."

"Fine," I say. "Be a bad friend!"

"I will," he sticks his tongue out at me.

"Sorry," Jason puts his hand on my shoulder. "I normally would stay with you, but I just got here, and I need to get to know the guys better."

"You need to get to know me better too!" I try.

"He has every other day to do that," Leo responds. "You're constantly hanging out in my room, which I now share with Jason. Something tells me you two will become friends. Maybe even something more by the way you two look at each other…"

"What?" I blush slightly. "I do not like him! I barely know him!"

"Yeah," Jason nods. "What she said!"

"Sure…" Leo rolls his eyes at us. "Come Jason, we've got parties to attend. Piper, have fun with Calypso."

"Oh, I will." I say sarcastically. Jason smiles cutely at me before walking away with Leo. I can't believe Leo would embarrass me like that! Why would he throw me under the bus and exclaim that I liked his new roommate, who I clearly don't like. I mean, I barely even know Jason. I don't even know his middle name. It's impossible for me to like him. Wait…maybe Leo is right… He is pretty attractive…

I shudder. This is getting out of hand. I can't like Jason. And if I do, I'd never live it down, especially from Leo.

I push those thoughts out of my mind and walk into my dorm room and lay down in my soft bed. I guess I'll just sleep it off. I mean, there's nothing else for me to do.

Remember to answer the questions above and review!

Happy holidays!
