Percy
Percy groaned as he tried to get up from his seat as the bell rang. That Annabeth knew what she was doing when she tortured the hell out of him. His shoulders ached. Butch looked over and gave an amused smile.
"That girl got you good, didn't she? Man, I wish I had seen her do it." he laughed. Percy moaned.
Not what he was expecting first thing in the morning. And who puts P.E. for first period?
Worst. Day. Ever. And it hadn't even started properly yet. He had to get out of class.
Percy stopped to see his reflection in the trophy cabinet on the way to the lockers. He tried to smile at himself.
You don't need some crazy girl to let your ego down, no matter how strong she was. Cuz your Percy Jackson-the man. You ain't gonna let some pretty girl who turned you down then squashed you like a bug bother you, cuz you-that's right you-are a Jock. And do Jocks let these things annoy them? (He started thinking about Annabeth-)
SOMETIMES...
Damn it, even the whole ego building thing didn't work anymore.
Jason approached. "Hey I heard about what happened,"
Wow, things sure spread quickly in one period.
Jason laughed as Percy winced when trying to open his locker.
Whoever this Annabeth was, he was going to...!
...avoid her as much as possible.
Nico
First day of High school seemed pretty scary. As a junior, it was pretty nerve-racking to see all these people who knew each other and their way around...
In conclusion-FIRST DAYS OF HIGH SCHOOL STINK
He slowly made his way to the lockers.
'Okay number 201-"
He felt someone yanking him from behind. A boy with curly hair and humorous eyes but serious face turned to him. For a moment it seemed-possibly-unnatural for him to look that way. He felt as if he wasn't supposed to have such a serious look. His hands were on his waist as if he were handling a difficult situation.
"Hello I'm Leo!" his voice almost scared Nico. He realized his given time to analyse him was up. "I will be showing you around all of break today."
"I thought my cousin Tha-"
"Your cousin turned up sick, dude, so she told me to look after you or get bashed up." Leo sounded sorry for himself. Nico gave him a look like WTF. He'd never met his older cousin before. What kind of girl was she to-
He felt himself being dragged up some stairs and through two doors. Groups sat at different tables. The cafeteria.
Leo yanked him to the centre of the hall. He pointed to a table with stocky built guys that shoved each other around.
"The Jocks-
They're the "hot" guys and their girlfriends are usually the hottest in the school," he pointed to a guy. "See that guy, Beckendorf, he's going out with a girl named Silena. In my opinion she's kind of annoying at times-all bubbly and giggly-but she is pretty cute."
"Next-Dumb bitch table, full of dumb bitches," (A/N sorry for language, if anyone feels offended) "They have nothing else to do except gossip and try to hit on hot guys. Stupid, slutty and mean, and plus they're total make-up freaks."
"See that small group of girls? They're hot right? Don't EVER try to make a move on them. If you do, dude, it's R.I.P. Rico-"
"It's Nico,"
"That's what I meant, Anyways you really don't want to get on their bad side. I mean really-mood swings everyday. I would know, they're my friends,"
Everything else was a blur, cheerleaders, Goths, nerds, skaters-Nico's head felt dizzy.
All he got out of it was that he probably shouldn't have another conversation with Leo.
The bell rang.
"What? I haven't even eaten yet!" he cried.
Leo patted him on the back reassuringly. "Get used to it, man."
