Chapter One
This is the real chapter to all of you who were confused, I accidently posted the wrong thing. Here it goes, hope you enjoy it guys!
Annabeth POV.
Riiiiing, Riiiing! I picked my phone up and closed the curtain not seeing what my neighbor was going to write.
"Annabeth, what's taking you so long to come down?" yelled my boyfriend Luke through the phone. "I'm giving you five minutes, and you better not be talking to that Percy guy again."
"I'll be right there Luke, and no, I'm not talking to him, I promise." I lied.
"Okay, love you babe."
"Love you too."
LINE BREAK!:))
I grabbed my bag from my bed and dashed down, not even saying bye to Percy.
I should introduce myself. My name is Annabeth Chase, I'm sixteen years old and I live in New York. I switch houses between my mom's and dad's. My parents divorced when I was six. My dad remarried two years later to my step mother *cough* step monster *cough*. A year later they had twins, Mathew and Bobby. They're six now. My mom lives in New York, but is in France right now for her job.
I grabbed an apple from the counter and went through the doorway. I immediately saw Luke's blue Prius (Don't know a lot about cars so…) and ran to there. I got in and as soon as I closed the door he sped through the street. He finally slowed down and parked in front of a Starbucks.
"Have you eaten breakfast?"
"No, I just got an apple. I slept in." I lied. The truth was that I was talking to Percy, my next door neighbor. His room window is right in front of mine and ever since he moved in we have a strange way of communication. He knocks on the window and we talk through paper, by writing notes and flipping it around to show each other what we wrote.
LINE BREAK :))
FLASHBACK
I was crying on my bed, because I had accidentally spilled coffee on Luke's shirt. He yelled at me in public and shoved me so hard that I landed hard on the floor.
Knock, Knock
"That is weird," I thought. "Luke would never apologize right away."
I looked up and realized the knocking was coming from outside of my window. I walked towards it and the first thing I saw were the mesmerizing sea green eyes. I stared for a long time, when I noticed that the owner of those beautiful eyes was blushing. I waved to him, and he waved back. He mouthed something that I couldn't understand. I shrugged my shoulders to show that I was confused. He held up his hand, as if saying wait a minute. He ran out of my sight and I started fixing my face, my eyes were really blotchy and red.
"I need to stop crying" I thought.
I saw the mystery guy again and he had a sketching pad in his hand. He scribbled something on the paper and I read it.
ARE YOU OKAY?
I nodded my head and smiled at him, he was nice. WAIT, I told my brain, don't think like that, you have Luke. I held up my hand and he gave me a reassuring smile. I ran to the end of the hallway that connects all the rooms upstairs. I pressed a button on the wall that slid down the attic stairs. I climbed the stairs really fast, and I looked for my art box. When I found it, I slid it towards the stairs and I struggled for ten minutes. When I got to my room I made sure mystery guy was still there. I grabbed a sketch pad from the box and our conversation went something like this,
Me: HI
Mystery Guy: HI, MY NAME IS PERCY
Me: I'M ANNABETH
Percy: WHY WERE YOU CRYING?
Me: SOME RELATIONSHIP PROBLEMS :P
Percy: I'M SORRY
I told him about myself and he told me about him. He was new to this part of New York, and was looking forward to being here. His name was Perseus Jackson, but he liked to go by Percy. He was 16 years old, born on August 18. His favorite color is blue. He was looking for a school to go to and he has been living here for three weeks.
LINE BREAK :))
"You're lying" said Luke, interrupting my thoughts.
"What?" I asked confused.
"You never sleep in."
"Well, there's always a first in everything."
"I was texting you today at 6, you have been awake since."
"I went back to sleep"
His blue eyes darkened with anger, and realization struck him "You were talking to that Percy dude."
"No I wasn't, I swear."
He raised his eyebrow, but didn't say anything else.
LINE BREAK:))
When I got to school, I gathered my binders for the first class. As I was making my way there, I saw some familiar sea green eyes in the crowd.
Percy?
