PERCY AND ANNABETH:
HOW THEY MET AT GOODE HIGH
A/N: Chapter 2 is here! Now I looked over chapter 1 and I could see that it wasn't exactly the best piece I have written. I have decided to try and make it up to you with this chapter instead! Hope you enjoy… oh and don't forget to REVIEW, REVIEW AND REVIEW! First person to review… gets a shout-out in the next chapter!

I read my notes and quickly shoved them in my bag. Percy was leading me to Greek class and we pretty much had not talked along the way.
"Hey, I like your shirt".
"Oh, uh thanks".
Our conversations would start, and then end just like that. "Well here we are". We stopped in front of a door and he opened it. I stepped inside, nodding my thanks. I took a seat near the back, while he sat somewhere near a bunch of girls. "Guess those girls feel pretty lucky", I thought as I saw the girls blushing and fanning their faces. Wow, are they usually that flustered?
"Good morning class. As you well know… we will be learning a lot about Greek gods and goddesses this year." "How about we say a couple, just to refresh your mind and also give Miss Chase the basics", the teacher said as he gave me a childish wink. He reminded me of Chiron, the same tinkle behind their eyes.
A few kids raised their hands and surprisingly Percy was one of them.
"Awww, Mr. Jackson", the teacher said, as Percy put his hand down.
"How about Poseidon?"
I looked at him. Black hair, green eyes, and all. He looked like someone who would've picked Poseidon. Especially with those green eyes… like the ocean. I snapped back to reality and continued in on what Mr. Knight had to say.
"… The big three. God of the sea."
I raised my hand, not surprised at the sudden speed at how I wanted to answer. Being a daughter of Athena, means you have to use your brain at all time and be used to it.
"Yes, Annabeth."
"Athena", I said with no bit of hesitance.
"Oh, Athena. Funny how you say that right after Poseidon. Those two don't have the best relationship."
I knew what he meant. Athena and Poseidon had had a feud over New Athens, even though Athena won at the end.
"Well it's not Poseidon's fault that the people didn't want fresh water from the spring he created", Percy added with a bit of a defensive edge in his voice, "I don't know why they refused it, people need water to survive."
I cleared her throat and said "Uh, the fresh water he created was actually ( cough cough ) salty water."
"People could still use it for other stuff… uh… like… for the shower?"
"Well, Athena created the olive tree so people can use it for their lamps or-
The bell rung and cut me off. I sighed in relief, for I did not want to continue this.
"Excellent work today, Miss Chase and Mr. Jackson, you both get an A. Class dismissed."
I walked outside, into the hallway.
"Annabeth, wait!"
I turned around and noticed Percy.
"Oh, hi."
He was walking backwards and before I lost him completely, he gave me a punch in the arm and said "You're not bad", and then gave me one of his trademark grins.
