Hey guys, sorry I haven't updated in a long time. Here's the fifth chapter! (Sorry the chapters have been really short too)
(Annabeth)
I put on my Bluetoothheadphones as I grabbed my phone, notebook, and pencils. As I connected the headphones to the phone I climbed into my bunk, the bedding on the mattress shifted. I turned on my Classical Music Radio on Pandora as I opened the
notebook to the next blank page.
I listened to the music and shut my eyes, looking through the building I was going to sketch. I saw the marblecolumns, the granite tile floors, and the beautiful walls and ceilings. I started to sketch. The Greco-Roman building came to life on the
pages, the light pencil marks were lifted off the page and became real on my mind.
At that moment, the most magical to me- when the building becomes real, Piper and Thalia walked in.
"No! You can't leave us!" Piper cried.
"Piper, if Reyna found out that there are three of us in this room she'd flip," Thalia reasoned.
I pulled off my headphones and closed the notebook. "What's happening?"
"Thalia's moving out!" Piper whined.
"Piper, she had a good point, Reyna would have our heads if she knew," I commented.
"If I knew what?" Reyna asked, sticking her head in the door.
"Nothing," Thalia groaned.
"How many girls are living in this room?" She asked, with a smug look on her face.
"Two, I'm living in Hazel's room," Thalia confirmed.
Reyna's smug look momentarily fell. "You better get in there quickly, room inspections are today. You wouldn't want to make Octavian upset." She strode out of the room, her black stilettos clicking on the wood floor in the hallway.
Octavian is our RA, he's... Annoying to say the least.
(Thalia)
I moved into Hazel's room quickly. It was only down the hall a couple rooms. Leo and Frank were in the dorm under us.
"Thalia, what are you doing here?" Hazel asked, shocked.
"Can I not visit my good friend?"
"Well- I mean-"
"Can I not move in with my good friend?"
"Sure, of course."
I saw Octavian at the end of the hall, with a grim look on his face.
"Hurry, Octavian is coming!" Hazel said, shoving me into herroom.
(Piper)
"Room 9, floor 2, Piper McLean, Annabeth Chase, and Thalia Grace," Octavian sneered.
"Thalia isn't in this room anymore," Piper confirmed.
"She got kicked out?! I knew it! I knew she'd be gone-"
"What? No, she's in Hazel's room now." Annabeth looked confused.
"Oh." Octavian marked down something.
(Hazel)
Thalia quickly unpacked her stuff and hopped into the bottom bunk.
There were three knocks on the door.
"Open the door, manitory room checks!" Octavian said from the other side of the door.
I opened the door. "Room 12, Floor 2, Hazel Levesque and Thalia Grace." Octavian looked up from his clipboard. "Get off the bed, I have to check the room."
Thalia led Hazel outside into the hallwaywhile Octavian looked through their stuff.
It was a pretty tidy room. Beds made, stuff where it should be. He opened the drawers of the bedside tables and snickered at something. Maybe they should have Reyna or a girl check the girls rooms,I thought.
Octavian put a slip of paper on the door with stickytak and left the room once more.
"Keep everything neat in the desk drawers and in the closet. Make sure everything is put away. Get rid of excess stuff. Grade: B+. Ugh! We deserve higher than that! With you moving in two minutes before he got here that's pretty good. But still!"
I huffed.
Thalia took the paper and there was a note on the back.
"Thalia: meet me in the rose garden tonight at 9:30.Huh, odd... Do you think I should go?"
"Yeah, I have a pretty good view of the rose garden from here."
I'll update again soon. Bye!
