LOU ELLEN'S P.O.V.
"I still don't get it. Out of all the girls in the school, how are we still together.
I mean I'm not against it or anything. But it's definitely not a coincidence."
Thalia smiled cheekily.
"Having your parents practically own the school does help. But they made it clear that this is the first and last favour they do for us."
"So" said Piper, still clearly confused. "You asked your parents if ..." "They could make sure we're all roommates? Yes" finished Katie.
"Well, at least we have each other to suffer the school year with." I sighed.
JASON'S P.O.V
"So, can your Dad do any other favours for us?" asked Luke. I sighed irritably.
"Guys, I practically had to beg my Dad to let us share a room together. This is definitely the only favour he's going to do for us."
"Jason. What's the point in having your Dad as principal if he can't even grant some tiny requests?"
"Connor, drop it." "Ok, ok" said Connor, holding up his hands in mock surrender.
Travis jumped up from his bed like he'd just been electrocuted. "WHAT. It says here that you have to be up by 7 IN THE FREAKIN' MORNING."
Luke snatched the paper out of his hands. "Give me a look. I CAN'T GET UP THAT EARLY, I CAN BARELY WAKE UP BY 9."
I laughed. "Well you're just gonna' have to cope huh?" Luke, Travis, and Connor turned and glared at me. "NOT FUNNY."
"God, this schedule is so strict." Moaned Connor. I couldn't really blame him, I agreed.
"2 hours of homework, why can't they split it up? This is so dumb." Yelled Travis.
"Well, if you're struggling you can always get a tutor." suggested Percy.
"Thanks, but I have better things to do than listen to an old lady talk about what types of radiation are included in the electromagnetic spectrum, or what kind of radio waves make up the Hertzsprung-Russel diagram." finished Travis
"Wow" Said Connor. "I never even knew those words existed."
"Yeah, me neither" said Travis.
PERCY'S P.O.V
I grabbed the jug and was just about to pour some water into my cup when a loud squeal nearly made me drop my plate. I sighed "What now?"
"Pupils of Olympian academy, could I have your attention." Boomed Zeus.
"No you may not." I murmured. All the students turned around to look at Zeus. "Thank you. I'd just like to make it clear that anyone outside their room after curfew will be punished.
A bell will ring at 9.45, so you have some time to get back to your rooms. Thank You. Have a good meal."
I sighed and went to join my friends at the table. "So, what are you guys gonna do after dinner?"
"We could always go explore the building." I suggested. Travis yawned. "Boring."
"Well do you have any better ideas?" "Yes, actually I do." I motioned him to go on.
"We could always go visit some girls." He raised his eyebrows suggestively.
I looked at him blankly. "You know" said Jason. "I'm going to go with Percy on this one."
"Ok," said Connor. "Me, Luke, and Travis, can go check out some girls. While you two bores can do whatever boring stuff you do.
" I rolled my eyes.
THALIA'S P.O.V.
"Ok, so you and Piper are going to go visit Percy, and Jason, and Katie, Lou Ellen, and I are just going to go walking around the place."
"Yep" said Annabeth, and before anyone could object she grabbed Piper and ran out the door.
"Well, this is great." I said, throwing my hands up in frustration. "What are we supposed to do now?"
"We could always go visit the plants room" suggested Katie.
"NO!" me and Lou Ellen yelled at the same time.
"Well do you know where we should go?" Katie huffed. "How 'bout we just go for a walk." Said Lou Ellen.
Lou Ellen and I looked at Katie expectantly. "Fine, but we're visiting the plants room on the way."
ANNABETH'S P.O.V
After Piper and I bolted out of the room we ran straight round the corner and bumped right into Luke, Travis, and Connor.
Travis smiled. "Haven't seen you guys in a long time."
He stepped forward to give me a hug, but I stepped back and shook his hand instead.
The last time he'd hugged me, he'd taken my phone and my money. I was not risking that again.
Travis looked hurt, but Connor and Luke just laughed, so I figured he'd be okay. "Where are you guys going?" asked Piper.
"To the library." Replied Connor, while Travis said, "To the art room." Luke laughed nervously, what they mean to say is we've been there. We were just going to the music room."
I narrowed my eyes. "The music room's the other way" "Yeah" said Luke. I shook my head. "Look, I don't care where you're going, could you just tell us where Percy, and Jason are?"
Luke smirked. "They're in the hall." "Ok, thanks" I said. Before briskly walking off.
KATIE'S P.O.V
"Katie, just ignore him. He's only trying to wind you up." I knew Lou Ellen was right, but he was just so annoying.
Yeah so maybe he was kind of cute. That didn't change anything. He was still Travis Stoll the idiot.
"Hey Kit-Kat, you run those 20 laps that Mr Baker asked you to do?" I whipped around and glowered at Travis.
"You say another word and I'll make sure you never speak again Stoll." Travis smirked.
I hated it when he did that; though he looked really cute … I shook my head. Travis Stoll was not cute.
"I don't think your mother would approve if you got detention." I slammed Travis against the wall. "You are going to regret what you just said Stoll."
I tried to punch him, but somehow he flipped me around so I was the one backed against the wall. "Regret what Katie-Kat?" he teased.
His face was only a few inches away from mine. Too close. I blinked, Travis was staring at me. "You okay Gardner?"
Before I could reply I heard someone yell. "KATIE GARDNER, WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?" I groaned.
Travis' eyes widened and he tried to run away but Demeter blocked his path, "and where do you think you're going young man?"
"I was just leaving." Stuttered Travis. He looked around for Luke, and Connor but they had disappeared, and so had Thalia, and Lou Ellen.
"Mom" I whined. She whirled around and glared at me. "YOU ARE IN SO MUCH TROUBLE YOUNG LADY."
Demeter's screaming had attracted the attention of many people. I felt my face go hot. Right now, the only thing I wanted was for the ground to swallow me up.
She looked back at Travis and yelled. "EXPLAIN YOURSELF." Travis looked confused. "Explain what?"
I looked down the hallway and saw Hermes walking down towards Demeter with a tired expression on his face. "EVERYONE, BACK INTO YOUR ROOMS." He yelled at everyone who was watching.
Everyone reluctantly walked back into their rooms, probably disappointed that they didn't get to watch the whole scene.
"Demeter" Demeter was too busy yelling at Travis to hear Hermes. Hermes rolled his eyes and stepped in front of Travis.
Demeter looked surprised for a second but that soon turned into anger. "Keep your son away from my daughter" she warned Hermes.
"Woah." Said Travis. "Why don't you tell your daughter to stay away from me."
"What's that supposed to mean?" I shouted. "It means, you just can't stay away from me, because you love me too much." Replied Travis coolly.
"I love you? I'd sooner jump off a cliff then love you." I shrieked.
" Why, because you know I'm too good for you?" "No, because.."
"Because?" "You just are." "Too good for you?" he mocked.
That was the moment I completely lost it. I lunged at Travis and started kicking and punching him.
I felt a pair of arms grab me from around my waist and pull me off Travis. "Katie, stop. NOW" I heard someone yell in my ear. I stopped, breathless.
I glared at Travis. He was trying hard not to laugh. "Travis go back to your room." Said the voice again. I realized it was Hermes. "But.." Travis was cut off, "NOW."
Travis grumbled and walked off. "As for you…" Hermes turned me around, so I was looking him in the eye.
He had the same blue eyes as Travis. The thought made me involuntarily blush.
"…you are banned from coming into this side of the hall for a week." I looked at Demeter for back up, but she nodded her head.
I opened my mouth to object. "Katie" warned Demeter. I turned around and started walking back towards my room.
I can't believe I'd gotten into trouble again. All because of Travis Stoll.
