Annabeth
Maybe if I wasn't pregnant she would've hit me back but she didn't. Her eyes are wide in shock and she stills holding her bright red cheek.
"How dare you!" I yell, when I realise how long we've been staring at eachother.
"What the hell was that for?" she yells back.
"You had no right. No right, to tell everyone!" I screech.
"I didn't tell anyone!"
"So, why was you standing here looking guilty?" I ask, my face red in anger. I can feel everyone's eyes on me but I don't care.
"Annabeth, calm down," Percy whispers, putting his hand on my shoulder. I shrug him off and put my face near Thalia's again.
"I thought I could trust you! You're meant to be my best friend," I say, my voice much quieter.
"I thought you knew me better than anyone. Obviously, you don't because if I say I'll keep a secret then I will," she replies, in the same tone.
"Well explain this then, Thals!" I yell, anger spreading through me once again.
"It wasn't me!" she yells and then storms off in another direction. Whispers fill my ears and I spin around to find everyone staring at me.
"You all know, now so you can stop staring!" I yell and they all look away. Angry tears fill my eyes and I punch my locker.
"That's enough," Percy says and pulls me away from the locker.
"I-I can't believe she t-told everyone," I stutter and squeeze my eyes shut, forcing myself not to cry. I'm not going to be weak.
"I know," he whispers, putting his arms around me and letting me lean my head against his chest. "You know that all everyone wants is a little gossip. Everyone will forget about us in a few days." It sounds like he's convincing himself more than me but I'm grateful that he's hear and supporting me.
"We better get to class," I say after a minute of silence. I pull away and smile slightly as if to prove I'm calm enough not to start punching the lockers again.
We grab our books from our lockers and then head to Homeroom. We sit down next to eachother and I try not to glare at the back of Thalia's head. I put my elbow on my desk and rest me chin on my hand, staring at the window. I only look up when someone clears his or her throat in front of me. I look up to find the one and only Drew Beauregard, daughter of Aphrodite and sister to my friend Silena.
"How do you feel, Sweetie?" she squeaks, her annoying voice hurting my ears. Once again I feel everyone's eyes on me. I wish my Homeroom teacher was here.
"I feel fabulous," I say, flashing a fake smile at her.
"I bet you are. Being pregnant makes you glow… and fat!" she replies, smirking.
"Yeah. Well, most pregnant women never get as big as you are now," I snap, my temper growing. 'Ooh's' from the watching students fill the air and I smirk.
"Most women are over eighteen, too! Who's the father? I bet you don't know yourself you blonde slag!" she yells. That felt like a stab in the stomach. I sit there speechless when Percy speaks up.
"Don't you ever speak to her like that and you can't talk. You're calling her the slag? Who's the bitch that jumps in any boy's bed? Oh and just to clear something up: I'm the father." I feel even more speechless when he says that. Percy never yells. Heck, he barely ever swears!
"Y-you are?" Drew asks, her smile falling.
"Yeah, he is," I reply, standing so we are eye-to-eye. "That means you don't get to touch him."
She cackles. "What, so you're a couple now?"
"No, but there's no way I'm letting you be my baby's step mother," I growl.
"You're going to be the worst mom ever!" she yells. Now, she can say anything… except that!
Everything happens so fast. I jump over the desk and land on Drew, knocking us both to the floor. I grab a fist full of hair and yank it in one direction while I use my other hand to punch her in the face. Her nails claw at my face and back while she screams and everyone rushes over to watch us. "You bitch!" I yell, my fist connecting to her nose.
"Ow!" she squeals. I'm about to punch her again when I'm yanked off of her by my elbows.
"Get off of me!" I scream, try to shrug the people holding me back, off.
"Stop it," Percy yells but I ignore him and finally get out of his grip and lunge at Drew. She gets a good slap across the face before I'm yanked back again and yelled tightly.
"You've probably just killed the baby!" Drew squeaks and I open my mouth to yell something back at her.
"What's going on here?" a deep voice yells and we all freeze.
"She started it, Mr Brunner!" Drew says and if frown.
"You liar!" I screech.
"I'm very disappointed in both of you," he growls, coming into view when everyone parts so he can roll up to us in his wheelchair. "Both of you to Mr. D's office now!"
Percy let's me go and I walk off, hearing Drew's heels hitting the floor behind me. I sit outside the principles office while Drew sits opposite me. Mr. D calls us in after a while. "I heard you to got into a fight. Is that right, Annabelle?" he asks.
"It's Annabeth, Sir, and yes we did," I reply, glaring at Drew.
"And who's fault was it, Dani?" he asks.
"It's Drew and it was completely her fault," Drew replies.
"No, it wasn't. You were the one calling me a slag!" I yell.
"Shut up!" Mr. D yells. "So, the rumours are true?" he asks, turning to me. I nod.
"Hmm, interesting," he says and we sit in silence until Drew decides to break it.
"I wonder who told the whole school," she speaks up and I look at her with wide-eyed. She did!
"You ugly little bit-"
"That's enough," Mr. D says, cutting me off. "This is the first time you, Annabelle, have had a fight so I'll let you off the hook but neck time…" he trails off. "As for you, Dani, you caused a fight last week so you'll be scraping chewing gum off the desks after school."
I smile in satisfaction once we leave his office and head to class. I don't see any of my friends until lunch and it's when I'm walking to the cafeteria when I realise just how nervous I am. What if they hate me and treat my differently? Oh god, I bet they are so disappointed in me. It's then that I decide I'm going to sit on a table alone. Yeah, it's a weakness not facing everyone but I don't think I can handle anyone else giving me horrible looks and ignoring me. I take a deep breath and walk into the cafeteria…
AN: REVIEW! I'm thinking about putting up a new story. I don't know what I might call it but it's about Percy being kidnapped when he's a newborn baby and then he grows up thinking Annabeth is his sister and that Athena is his real mom. Then Athena dies and everything starts to un-wind. It is a romance so Annabeth and Percy will get together but what do you all think?
