BYE BYE NOW
Piper
"Well, well, well, if it isn't dumpster girl." snickered Drew as Piper walked over to the benches. "Have you worked on you cart-wheels, yet? Pity, you should've, they look rather," she twisted her mouth into a smirk. "Weird."
"Your face is weird." Piper huffed taking out her water bottle.
Drew's expression hardened but she was still wearing that sickly sweet smile of hers.
"At least my hair doesn't look like a dead badger."
"At least I don't have a brain the size of a pea." she mocked back.
"Well, I'm not as ugly as you, sweetie."
"Maybe on the outside but on the inside, your hideous, honey." A few nearby girls started smirking at Drew. She clenched her fists.
"Shut up Mclean," she snarled.
"Don't me what to do Tanaka,"
"Oh, I'll tell you what to do, alright. I can't believe you even tried getting in to cheerleading. You don't know a thing about it, so shut your mouth and listen to me. The next time you try to fight me, you won't ever be seeing that cute boy you always hang out with. He deserves to stay with someone much better looking, don't ya think, hon? Oh but don't worry-I'll treat him well for you, he'll be with a better kisser anyways." Piper's eyes suddenly flashed up with rage. (A/N uh-oh I have a feeling something might come up now. cover your eyes/ears young readers!)
That. Was. It.
IT'S TIME TO DIE, BITCH!
(Okay done)
Piper got up, ready to smack her, when the coach came into the gym. Drew moved swiftly away from her.
"Alright girlies, I'm here!" she said with a honey-sweet voice. She gave a little wave and beamed at them. The coach was a gorgeous woman around her twenties. She had her curly chest-nut hair falling below her shoulders, and her beautiful blue eyes looked at them like she was a teenage girl who just won tickets to One Direction.
Piper's reaction-
...
I. Am. Screwed. If. I. Am. Stuck. With. Her.
"Well, let's finally get on with tryouts! Okay, um, top of the list, okay." She mumbled a few names as she scanned the roll. "Emily Andrews is...away...Bailey, got a letter from her...ah-hah! Beauregard! Silena Beauregard!" She looked up looking around for the owner of the name. Piper looked around, too.
Silena raised her hand and smiled. "Here!"
"Okay, do your thing," she said cheerily and she sat down on her chair.
Silena was good. Very good. Really good. Really, REALLY good.
The coach clapped every time she did a little cart-wheel or a trick. She kept going "Ooh! Impressive!" or "Wow! Outstanding!"
Piper just stared helplessly at Silena thinking about how stupid her routine would look up against hers. Every time Silena did an impressive trick she kept thinking crap, crap, crap, crap. For some reason she didn't want to fail. If she did, it would make her look stupid and people would say "Ha ha! Look there's the girl who tried out for cheerleading! No wonder she didn't get in. She's pathetic. LOSER!"
Piper clenched her fists hearing the word. No. She was not a loser. She was going to succeed. But a teeny, tiny part of her-okay jks-ALOT of her said As if, you can't do a thing right! And it didn't help that Drew kept shooting her smug looks as if saying You don't belong here, and you know it.
For the first time, the bitch was right.
The routine ended and Silena bowed. The coach got up and clapped. "BRILLIANT, THAT WAS SUPERB! LOVED IT, COULDN'T TAKE MY EYES OFF YOU! BRILLIANT."
Silena gave a small smile and sat down next to Piper.
Piper turned to her. "Wow, you were really good! I bet you'll get in." Silena gave her another smile.
"It's really practice, I'm sure you'll do just as good." She said reassuringly. Piper smiled back, but really she was going-
Yeah right. You should of seen my attempt to do the splits two days ago.
Not a pretty sight, at all.
Seriously, just ask Annabeth.
Oh right she might not be here...
She almost died because I killing her for getting me into this shit.
In other words, Silena-who-can't-hear-me, I suck.
Next was a girl named Lacy, then Molly, then Michelle, then Nyssa, then Piper-
EEK! THAT WAS HER!
Shit.
"Um I'm here," she gulped and went to the front.
"Okay, are you ready?"
She looked at everyone and almost passed out. She couldn't do it. She was going to make a fool out of herself. She was stupid to say yes to twenty bucks. She was going to look like an idiot. She saw Silena's encouraging smile. It was nice of her to do so, but really it wouldn't help. She could see the coach's blue eyes looking at her, waiting patiently. She felt all these pairs of eyes on her. She just couldn't do it.
Drew snicked as she saw her nervousness.
Piper's eyes glared at the girl who flicked back her hair with a certain satisfaction. Like she knew this was going to happen. Like she had seen this coming way before. Like she had everything planned out, and her world was perfect. Like she had already won. Piper glared at her and a sudden energy brought her back.
No, you haven't won yet.
She nodded her head. "Yup, I'm ready."
Annabeth
Annabeth gave out a sigh and straightened herself out.
You can do it. You have to do it.
She pulled her hair into a ponytail and headed towards the locker.
Pride.
Pride is what got you into this. Pride was the thing that always held you back. Pride would always get in the way.
Well she was going to change that.
Where was she going?
She sighed again and walked towards him.
He looked up and saw who it was. She swore that she saw a glint of fear in his eyes and she bit her lip.
"What do you want." he mumbled
She gulped and pushed a strand of hair behind her ear. She looked down at her shoes. She couldn't look him in the eye. It hurt to see someone angry at her.
"I-I wanted to say that I-I'm sorry. I'm sorry that I took my anger out on you. I'm sorry that I have such a short temper. I'm sorry because you meant well, and-and I had no right to get mad at you. I didn't mean to-it's just that," her voice was shaking. "I've always been proud, and I don't want you to think of me as-as a bully or anything. I know"-she hesitated again-"I know that I can prove to you that I'm much more than that. I don't want first impressions to ruin a friendship. I just ask you to forgive me. I understand if you won't but-I want us to be friends so-" she looked up at him and swallowed hard. "Can we start over?"
Percy looked at her with a strange look on his face. Her face fell. He wasn't going to forgive her. He would ask her who the hell she thought he was. He would yell at her for asking to forgive her. He would never look at her again without an angry look on his face.
She could feel the tears brimming up in her eyes. She would always be thought of as the mean kid.
This was getting stupid. She tried blinking away the tears. Hopefully he wouldn't notice.
She shut her eyes tight and waited for it to come.
Waiting.
Still waiting...
...and waiting.
Erm...is it over...?
She opened her eyes and blinked uncertainly. Huh? What was going on. She looked up at Percy.
He gave her a smile and she felt a funny warm feeling inside her. "Sure," he held out his hand to her and beamed. "Percy Jackson."
Annabeth couldn't believe it. She had been expecting the worst. Maybe he really wasn't so bad, after all. She mentally rolled her eyes at herself. She had already figured that out ages ago. She couldn't help but smile back and she shook his hand.
"Annabeth," she felt a huge weight lift off her chest. "Annabeth Chase."
Reyna
No.
Leo was not going near this one.
Not after all the hard work she had done.
Not after the hours spent working on it.
Not after all the effort she had put into making it.
Not after last time.
Today they had been given back their assignment results. Reyna, of course, didn't get any.
Yeah, okay, so he was trying to help. He had been making it better for her.
Yeah, yeah, go all AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
But when she saw this result of this "making it better for her" she was going all NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
And the teacher was like OH.
Like it was a big disappointment-re-phrasing that-because it WAS a big disappointment.
And now she had this picture book in her hands, for English, that she had worked very hard on. She had to put it in her locker, gently. Slowly. Pretend that it was nothing. Not let him see what it was. Not let him know what it was. Not let him make it better. Now all she had to do as slowly, calmly, put it in her locker-
"Hey Rey-"
"I HAVE NOTHING IN MY HANDS!" she tossed the book into her locker and slammed it shut. "NOTHING! ABSOULETELY NOTHING! IT WAS NOTHIING! TRUST ME NOTHING...But, um, why do you ask?" She tried leaning over the locker, you know, acting...casual.
Leo looked at her strangely. "Rey is there something-"
"IN MY LOCKER? Oh that would be a no." she said trying to smile. "Let's forget about that for now. Let's talk about life-" she awkwardly patted is back "...friend."
Leo took a step back. "Um okay, but I never really asked what was in-never mind. I just came to say I'm sorry that you didn't get any results for the assignment. I was only trying to help. I just wanted to let you know that I don't want this to ruin everything. So I'm sorry."
(A/N WHAT? IS IT APOLOGY DAY? OKAY I'M SORRY MOM FOR NOT EATING MY SPINACH AT DINNER TIME CUZ I DON'T LIKE IT, I'M SORRY TO THE SEA GULLS WHO I ALWAYS CHASED ON THE BEACH FOR FUN, I'M SORRY-OH RIGHT NVM.)
She felt a little guilty for hiding her assignment away now. Reyna looked up to face him, he was actually being sincere.
Okay cue the AWWWWWWW's.
He really did mean well, in the end. She gave him a small smile. "Alright, apology accepted." She opened her locker and showed him her picture book. "That's what I had in my locker, it's for English."
Leo looked down at it then looked up at her with a guilty smile. "Sorry."
She shrugged. "It's okay. It's fine, I can always make up for it."
Leo nodded and continued observing it. "So I guess it doesn't matter if I-"
"Valdez..."
"I'm joking! Only joking!"
Piper: aww...
Me: never knew you were a fan of Leyna
Piper: what are you talking about
Me: You just went "awwww"
Piper:...ur joking right
Me: no, I never joke.
Piper:...
Me: okay that time I was joking but u really did say it.
Piper: *walks away*
Me: Hey where are you going.
Piper: Gonna find Aphrodite
Me: WHY?
Piper: So I can smack her.
