PERCY POV:
"Guys hurry up we're going to be late for school!" Annabeth shouted to everyone who was running around the house.
"Calm down, Annie" I said then she glared at me
"I-I mean Annabeth." She just smiled sweetly and walked into blackjack
"Guys we will meet you at school!" I shouted
After what happened yesterday night we all fell asleep pretty late so we woke up in the movie room pretty late. I got in the car and started the engine
"so… Annabeth." I asked
"Ya?"
"Why?"
"Why what?"
"Never mind" I didn't even know what I was going to say. I just wanted to hear her voice.
"Percy?"
"Ya?"
"Why is it so awkward?"
"Maybe because what happened yesterday?" I turned the car off but I didn't get out yet. We were in the school parking lot and I could see some girls waiting for me
"But we agree it was an accident okay?"
"Okay." We walked out of the car and went our separate ways. Today was friday and I have an interview straight after school with Thalia and Nico. There is no Music today, which is a bummer but I just walked into science with the Stolls,Valdez and Di'Angelo
-LINE BREAK TO LUNCH CUZ I DON'T WANNA WRITE ABOUT BORING CLASSES-
"Hey guys" I waved to them sitting on the table and we all sat together.
"Where's Jason?" Piper asked
"Hospital." Clairese answered nonchalantly. We all looked at her with confused looks "Oh calm down! He's visiting an old friend!" We all let out a big sigh and started a conversation
"Who is exited for the SYC?" SYC = Start Of The Year Contest
"Oh that reminds me," Annabeth looked towards Allison and Piper "Have you girls sketched the outfits for everyone's performance?"
"Yep, here you go. I went with a bit darker with Thalia for her solo and for you Annabeth, I went with pastel and for the class-"
"Hello." A voice I didn't recognise just turned up behind me. I looked back to see a brown haired girl, almost the same colour as Piper's hair but lighter, with a very revealing top and pants and heels…I mean WHAT? This is a school not a runway! She looked at me seductively which made me even more terrified of her and I looked around the table and they just stood there in shock. The girlfriends recovered first and knocked their boyfriends to sense.
"H-Hi?"
"Calypso." She said trailing her fingers down my arm muscles… Creepy much? I moved my hand so she won't be touching it but she just smiled even more.
"Per-"
"Percy Jackson. I know who you are. Why don't you and your band ditch these losers and going us?" She said coming closer to me. I swear I could hear Annabeth growl and Thalia ready to punch
"No thanks." Thalia answered
"I wasn't talking to you emo" And thats when it hit Thalia.
"Excuse me?"
"You are excused" She said not taking her eyes of me.
Thalia walked behind her grabbed her arm and twisted it and pushed her against the cafeteria wall. "Let me ask you again, Excuse me?" Calypso didn't answer she just whimpered "Thought so." Thalia let go of her arm and Calypso looked back
"Bye freaks! Hope you loose in SYC! Actually, I don't need to hope, I know." And with that she left winking at me flirtatiously and ran away from Thalia.
"Hate her" Annabeth growled
"Jealous much?" I asked her with a smirk on my face. She just playfully punch me in the arm which meant, yes. I have to remember… ask her out on saturday aka. tmrw
"Whoa, Thalia you got skills" Allison said
"Yeah your like a gangster" Nico said
"I swear I need one of you to protect my house" Jason said
"I think I just found a sudden respect for you Grace." Clairese commented.
"Thanks, I try." Thals said sitting back down. "Is she always like this?"
Everyone nodded and Annabeth just said "Yeah, to almost every hot guy in this school."
I lifted my eyebrow up "Calling me hot, Chase?"
"Shut it dimwit." And she took off as the bell rang
-LINE BREAK-
-RING-
"Guys, we better get going before our dads comes and shout at us again for being late to a interview."
"Hey! That was not my fault!" Nico shouted in my ear which left a ringing sound.
"Okay, shush calm down." We walked into the car and left our house behind.
"Do you think the interviewer will be snobby and has a big nose?" Thalia asked
"Idk-"
"For the love of gods Nico its 'I Don't Know!'" Thalia shouted at him
"Anyways," I tried to change the subject, because knowing Thalia I don't want a fight to break out. "All I know is we get styled then do a live performance, then get questioned for 20mins."
"Great." They both said.
Once we got out of the car we were rushed by security making a path for us in between screaming teens. The stylist did a pretty good job.
Thalia word a black nirvana shirt and a black jean jacket with chains with the back saying 'Golden 3, Thalia' In gold. She had jeans shorts that were normal with some ripped, but not on purpose, she got in a fight with a cat. Just saying, the stylist was pretty upset. And her signature black combat boots.
Nico wore some grey sneakers with a white v-neck and plain jeans with a cap flipped backwards. He had a black leather jacket that said 'Golden 3, Nico' on the black written in cursive white.
I wore blue sneakers and a grey V-neck with a plain pants similar to Nico and my jean jacket that said 'Golden 3, Percy' written in cursive dark blue.
We waited at the side of the stage while the director said to us "IN 5..4..3…2…1…" We walked on stage hearing a bit of the last sentence the host said "-GOLDEN 3!" We walk into the pitch black room.
THALIA - BOLD
PERCY - ITALICS
NICO - BOLD ITALICS
ALL - UNDERLINE
we started humming to the tune with just the piano playing in the background and the three of us looking down clicking our fingers but no one could see us, because the room was pitch black
Hmmmmmmm
Nico started with the drum beat slowly fading in. The audience still couldn't see us but we were still clicking our fingers.
hmmmmmmmm
hmmmmmmmm
hmmmmmmmm
Thalia was in the middle and the spotlight shined on her and she looked up with the mic in her hand. The only thing they could see was Thalia. which made the crowd go wild
Nobody ever knows
Nobody ever sees
I left my soul
Back there now I'm too weak
Most nights I pray for you to come home
Praying to the Lord
Praying for my soul
This time the spotlight signed on me and Thalia as I looked up with the mic on my hand. I was on the left of the stage which made the audience cheer even louder.
Now please don't go
Most nights I hardly sleep when I'm alone
Now please don't go, oh no
I think of you whenever I'm alone
So please don't go
I started to wonder around the stage with Thalia still clicking our fingers together
hmmmmmmm
hmmmmmmm
hmmmmmmm
Then the spotlight shined on Nico on the drums. He started singing which made the crowd go even more wilder - wait- is that even possible?
Cause I don't ever want to know
Don't ever want to see things change
Cause when I'm living on my own
I'll wanna take it back and start again
Most nights I pray for you to come home
Praying to the Lord
Praying for my soul
Now the spotlight was on all of us and the backup singers and the girl playing the piano.
Now please don't go
Most nights I hardly sleep when I'm alone
Now please don't go, oh no
I think of you whenever I'm alone
So please don't go
Thalia started to wonder around the stage with the force in her eyes leaning towards her mic while the beat grew stronger with Nico on the drums and me joining the backup dancers.
I send so many messages you don't reply!
I gotta figure out what am I missing babe!
Singing now
oh oh oh
And I need you now, I need your love!
oh oh oh….
Everything started to fade away so it was just the piano playing for a while then Thalia fist bumped the air looking up with the mic and the beat started again.
Now please don't go
Most nights I hardly sleep when I'm alone
Now please don't go, oh no
I think of you whenever I'm alone
So Please Don't
Please don't go
This time we asked the audience to join us so it was all of us singing the last 'please don't go' Nico was singing along with me and Thalia and the audience while he played the drums and the sound of the audience clapping and singing was amazing.
Please don't go
Please don't go
Please don't go
I think of you whenever I'm alone
So please don't go
everything stopped and the lights that lighten up the whole room was shut so there was only the spotlight that shined on me, Thalia and Nico.
Hmmmmmmm
Hmmmmmmm
Then the room went pitch black again so we all went out as the person said "THANK YOU THE GOLDEN 3! WE WILL BE RIGHT BACK WITH THEM IN AN INTERVIEW AS WE ARE HEADED FOR BREAK!" The followed by a "CUT!"
"That was hard. I couldn't even see anything" Nico whined about this for like another what? 5 minutes?
"Stop your yapping we are about to go out. And anything regarding school, mention our friends!" Percy and Nico nodded as they sat down on the couch with the host.
"LIVE IN 3….2…" He placed his fingers as 1 and they started rolling.
"Hello people of New York City!" Cue fake clapping here "Today we are joined with the Gold 3!" Cue another fake clap here. He turned and looked at us "So, I heard you are attending 'Goode' High School for Performing Arts? Tell me, I know you have only been there for 2 days, but any friends?"
Me,Thalia and Nico looked at each other and nodded.
I decided to answer this time, "We have met amazing people but few of our closes friends so far, has been our music class."
Nico took over, "Yes, There are the boys: Jason - we call him the blonde superman. Conner and Travis Stolls - The ultimate pranksters. Leo - The human torch that is hilarious to be around with and finally Chris - The smart one."
Thalia glared at Nico after that but it gave her time to answer too, "As of the girls, We have Annabeth - The oh-so-wise-one, Piper- The fashionista, Allison- The Calm one, Katie- The green thumb and finally Clairese- The tough one."
nodded in like he was interested but I could tell that he was bored and he just wanted to cut to the chase with the drama and the gossip. "Thats interesting!" Lies. "So tell me is there a special someone yet?" Annabeth. That is what came into my mind, straight away.
"Well, Thalia over here," I pointed towards her "Scares everyone especially this obnoxious girl who I believe people call a 'slut?' right Thalia?" Nico said
Thalia had a huge grin on her face like she knew what he was talking about. Now looked really interested in this and leaned forward to us which we were creeped out by, but we got use to it. "Yes indeed, cousin. Percy over here might not know this but many girls flirt with him. He is just to dense to notice." Because I only notice one girl, Annabeth Chase, I thought to myself.
's face immediately light up the whole room. "Yes, I hear that in 1 and a half weeks will be your first SYC! Congrats, and I also hear you will be performing at half time?"
We didn't have the need to actually reply to that, we just nodded our heads.
"So tell me, how is it like going to school after being on tour?"
"Very hectic!" Nico shouted which cause and fake applause from the fake audience.
"I like the way you think, Nick. Can I call you Nick?" asked
Nico growled. He hated being called that and I could see the fear in 's eyes. Which made me and Thalia amused by his actions. "No, you may not. May I call you Mikeyboy, Mikeyboy?" He threatened almost getting out of his seat leaning towards him.
"Interesting, Very Intresting, anyways.. seems like we have ran out of time, thank you for being here and I'm sure that you will have many hotties running after you guys," We shook hands as the director said "ITS A WRAP!"
