A/N: Hi thank you to everyone that reviewed this last chapters, it really means a lot, I plan on updating every other day, hope you like it, so here is chapter 3.
Annabeth's pov:
Still June 29th
Everything went silent, after he introduced me and Rachel to each other, wow she must be dumb it didn't take me long to figure out why Percy emphasised on the word ex, he obviously didn't like her. Rachel, I could already tell was going to say something she was going to regret, its only a matter of time, " So another gutter girl I see Percy, wow you can do better than that." Rachel said in an annoying tone. " Excuse me, you have known me for what a minute if I could I would totally slap you right now." I said trying to throw something back in her own face, instead I got something thrown at mine, to be pacific then I got a hand to my face, Rachel slapped me.
I tried so hard not to retaliate, but I just wanted to pull that red hair of hers out, so instead, I tripped her up to fall flat on her face, and whispered, " Never ever try to fight against me, your lucky I'm in a good mood, or you see that glass window over there, you will be put threw it, by the way, I'm Annabeth Chase, and I do most certainly not live in a gutter." I said confidently, when I got back up I realised Percy was standing right behind me, he obviously heard the whole thing, oh well she got what was coming to her.
" Listen Chase, this isn't over," She said as she raised a fist, I superbly, bobbed down to block her fist, coming straight a my face, but of course Percy being as dumb as he was did not dodge Rachel's fist and got his square in the nose. Rachel soon realised what she had done, and rushed to his side " Oh Percy I'm so sorry, that punch was meant for that devil, not you here let me fix your face," she said panicking like a 3 year old. "Rachel, just leave, and if you know what's good for you, you will stay away from this building, and never come here ever again." Percy said as he wiped blood away from his nose, onto his sleeve. " If that's how you feel Percy then I will go." she said as she legged it out of the door fake crying. Time to face Percy.
Percy's pov:
I knew that this would happen, with Rachel's jealousy, and how tough and smart Annabeth is, those too personalities do not match in a room with full glass windows. " Percy, are you ok, I understand if you want me to go." she said I a very un-Annabeth way." No, no Annabeth it wasn't your fault its mine, I should of just stood up to Rachel and told her not to come." I said knowing that she was going to say why didn't I." Well why didn't you." I told you, looks like I'm going to have to tell her. " Well, you see when me and Rachel split up, her dad went crazy about it, and after still thought we were friend, so every so often he would pay for Rachel to fly over to New York to come see me, plus her dad is a lawyer, and on the day we broke up, threatened to sue me for everything I've got which trust me, its more than I want, anyway, ever since that day 2 years ago, this has been going on, and today was the last straw, I 'am not willing to put up with that, for the rest of my life, wow, I have actually never told anyone that, it felt good." I went on to say, when I had finished she laughed, we then got on with organizing her work hours.
We had finally finished after 2 hours, we worked out that Annabeth will work, every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday 9.30 am to 5.30 am and will work for maximum wage, that way, we were both happy, she would get more money, and I would get to see her more.
When I saw Annabeth pack her things away, I butted in, and said, "Hey, so do you want to go out for lunch considering it is 1.02pm, and I' am still a growing boy therefore I need food whenever I can get it." he laughed and replied back, " Of course I would seaweed brain, it would give me more chance to get to now my boss, and at least because of Thalia we won't have to share any embarrassing stories about our childhood with each other." I laughed, in that moment, thinking about how much I need to thank Thalia for that, when I next see her.
Me and Annabeth approached my Maserati, she paused but got in, once we were in the car her eyes lit up, as if she was a year old, that just got a new bike, or something, " No way, you have a Maserati," she said still in shock. " Yes, and don't girls, normally not know about cars." I said in a sarcastic tone. " Well I do, me and Thalia were always the odd ones out in school, we use to know more about cars and football, than any boy, in the school." she said making sure her point was across.
We pulled into McDonald's, and ordered, me being the gentleman I' am let Annabeth order first, now there are too reasons for this, the first one, is that I hadn't made up my mind about what to get yet, and I wanted to see if she thought I was being gentleman, I think she thought both at the same time.
Annabeth's pov:
We soon finished at McDonald's, Percy offered to drop me off home, and on the way back, we got talking, and I think, well lets just say this, my boss Percy Jackson, is one of the nicest people you will ever meet, he may come of at first, cocky, rude, and arrogant, but once you get to know him, he is a pretty great guy.
" Yesterday, I would of titled us as acquaintances, but today we acted more like best friends that have known each other forever," As I got out of the car, I heard him say this to me, once again, with his signature smirk, I of course smirked back and replied " You took the words right out of my mouth." I got out of the car and went up to my flat, wow what a day, I thought as I sunk down on the back of my door.
I hoped you liked it, I think it shows a lot of Percabeth in this chapter, but don't worry there will be more!
