Me: Hey peeps It's me, McAwesome101, and I'm back with a NEW CHAPTER! YAYY! Sorry for not updating in a while but I was so busy with the first day of school and all, and I had writer's block. I hope you understand.
23 reviews? Awesome! You guys are the best, and I hope you guys like this chapter!
This chapter is dedicated to DemigodStarStreamer because she gave a super nice review that made me squeal happiness!
You guys didn't help me with Annabeth's new name. :( Oh, well. It's okay, I guess, but if you have any other good names for her that's better than the one I currently have, PLEASE TELL ME! Remember to favorite, follow, and review!
Percy's Point of View
Oh my gods, where is she? I had already told Athena about this, about me going to try to find Annabeth in California, but it's HUGE! There is no way I can find her in this huge place. I guess I will have to start scouting around her house. Or maybe a school nearby her house. I knew that she couldn't resist getting an education.
I got on my i-phone, which had a special chip in it that prevented it from attracting monsters. I searched up on Google, the closest school to Annabeth's house. It was... Oh my gods, there are like, a million schools around Annabeth's house. Ughhh... I skimmed through the high schools, and found one that said "Jupiter High". Huh. That's ironic. There is a really good Greek mythology program there. Good. Now at least I have a clue of where Annabeth could be hiding.
I enrolled there as soon as I found out where it was, and went there. The principal accepted me (after I took the test on Greek Mythology which I obviously passed with flying colors), even though it was really late. There was one spot left. Thank the gods. It was actually really impressive. It was huge. It had big white columns at the entrance, making it look really cool and intimidating. It looked like a temple, but it was HUGE (did I mention that?), and the surrounding it was large areas of crisp, green grass, and there was a concrete path leading to the steps of the school between the two large areas of grass.
I took a peek at their computer with all the student records, and there was no Annabeth. Hmm. Either she changed her name, or she doesn't go here after all. I'm leaning more toward the first choice. I mean, there was NO way she would have passed up a chance like this. I sighed. It really was going to be hard looking for her tomorrow, when it is the first day of school.
Annabeth's Point of View
I woke up, and i quickly got ready. Wait! I forgot! I got on my light brown eye contacts, just in case I see someone I know.
And then, I wore a shirt that was light pink that said "OWL CITY" in metallic silver block letters. I actually love Adam Young's songs. They were amazing. I then wore a silver skirt with laced trim. I looked really good, and completely unlike myself. Oh well. I had to make sure that no one recognized me.
I actually had great fashion sense, I just made sure that nobody knew that, my reputation would be ruined. I left my hair in curly ringlets, and got some pink ribbons to put in my hair. Then I put some sparkly pink slip-ons and owl earrings. Ughh. I looked like an Aphrodite girl. The pains of trying to be normal.
I also put on strong perfume, which helped mask my demigod scent. I walked the three blocks to Jupiter High, which was breathtaking. The school was amazing. Whoever designed the architecture of this was... *sighs* insanely creative and efficient. I walked in, and got my schedule. I saw a guy with familiar raven black hair at the office as well. I guess he was new, like me. When he turned around, I gasped. It was Percy! "Oh gods." I muttered, as he tilted his head to get a good look at me. Thank goodness he didn't recognize me.
"Hey, I'm Percy Jackson. Nice to meet you. Are you new here?" he asked. "Uhh, yes. I'm Anna-" I stopped myself. "Angela. Angela Collins. Nice to meet you too." Nice save, I told myself, as I mentally kicked myself for almost revealing my identity. "Oh, great. DO you want to go around together? You know, since we're both new." He offered. I shook my head. "No thanks. I got to go, I don't wanna be late." I replied. He looked disappointed, but nodded. He walked away.
I went to Greek mythology class, a minute early. I saw a guy with blond hair, the same color as mine, with green eyes as startling as my grey ones. He was undoubtedly, beautiful. He had a muscular body, and I saw about eight girls swooning over him. He looked at me, and his eyes lit up. "Talk to me at lunch," he mouthed. I tilted my head, confused, but nodded.
BRRINNGG!
I heard the lunch bell, and sat at an empty table. The guy I saw at class, walked over at sat with me. "Hey, I didn't get to introduce myself earlier. I'm Ryan Core. Are you new?" (AN: Thanks to Angel 03621 for helping me with the name!) I nodded and replied. "Angela Collins. Nice to meet you." He blushed. Wait, he BLUSHED?! Aren't guys as cute and popular as him NOT supposed to blush? "Well, Angel. You are quite beautiful, you know that? Want me to show you around?" he said, red roses still blooming on his cheeks.
"Thanks. And sure, I would love that" I replied pleasantly. We talked casually for the rest of the lunch period. I think... I think that I MAY have a crush on him, and by his actions, I think that he likes me too.
Walking to my next class, I thought everything was perfect. A new life, a crush that may like me back, and a steady life. What I DIDN'T realize, was that Mr. Percy Jackson himself was staring at me the entire lunch period.
Percy Jackson's Point of View
I knew that it was Annabeth the moment I saw her. I recognized her curly hair, and her owl earrings. NOBODY had the same princess blonde curls as my ex. girlfriend. I winced. EX. girlfriend. But not for long.
I asked her if I can show her around, wanting to know if she still liked me. She shook her head, and told me she had to go. I nodded and walked to my class, disappointed. Well, I guess that I can talk to her at lunch.
When I got to lunch, I was in for a HUGE surprise. She was talking to another guy. I scanned him. He had blond hair, the same color as Annabeth's, with startling green eyes. He was really good-looking. Oh, no. That guy was NOT about to steal my girl. And then I heard him saying, "Well, Angel. You are quite beautiful, you know that?" Oh. No. He. Didn't. My sea green eyes bore through his, and he smiled pleasantly at me, as if nothing was wrong.
I was going to kill him. "THAT WAS MY ANNABETH! MY WISE GIRL! AND YOU CANNOT HAVE HER!" I mentally shouted at him, as if it had helped at all. Ugh. What am I gonna do? The only thing that I CAN do, is watch them, like a creepy stalker. I sighed, and kept watching them. I saw Annabeth and Ryan (his name) blush.
I groaned really loudly. A few people stared at me like, "Dude, why are you so pissed?" and I glared back at them.
I walked back to class as the bell rang, ending lunch, and I felt like a failure.
Annabeth's Point of View
I spent the rest of the week with my new best friend, AKA Ryan Core, the hottest guy at Jupiter High, and had an amazing time. By the end of the week, I was thinking, This is perfect. What could go wrong?, when I saw Seaweed Brain staring at Ryan jealously, his sea green eyes piercing his back. I winced.
I think he knows who I am, I realized. He never got jealous, unless it was about me. Oh, no. I bit my lip, thinking about how much I messed this up. Ryan noticed this, and looked at me with his concerned green eyes. "Hey Angel, are you okay?" I shook my head. He hugged me, and my insides melted. I hugged him back, and murmured, "I'm stuck in a terrible situation. I don't know what to do." into his muscular chest.
He was really warm. He said comforting words into my hair, making me feel so much better, and it felt like nothing could ever bother me in his arms. But it could. When I peeked behind his shoulder, I saw Percy looking like he was about to cry. He was biting his lip, with his eyes wide. I couldn't stand to see him. I retracted back, my head on his chest again.
After a few minutes, I pulled back. "Thanks. I really appreciate it." He smiled. "No problemo. Would you like a ride home?" He nervously asked. I shook my head. "It's only a few blocks away. I'll be fine." I replied. "Good bye Angel, see you tomorrow." he said, as he walked back to his car. I blushed. "Bye."
As I jogged back to the hotel room that I stayed at, (it was Friday), I thought about everything that had happened. Everything was moving so fast. Ryan Core was amazing- he was smart, nice, cute, muscular, and the sweetest thing on Earth. Like Percy, I thought.
No. I'm done with Percy now. I don't care anymore. This is my life now. My days at Camp Half Blood was over. I was a mundane, a human, who can properly like, love, and marry whoever I want.
Once I got to my room, I flopped on my bed, tired. I had no homework, since it was the first day of school, and because I was new. I wasn't really used to this. I haven't gotten a proper education for a really long time.
It's fine. I will get used to it soon enough, especially with Ryan guiding me through high school. He'll help me... And Percy... I thought, as I fell into a deep, dreamless sleep.
Okay, that's a wrap for today! I hope you guys liked it. Remember to follow, favorite, and review! If you have any suggestions, or you find any errors, please PM or tell me in a review NICELY. I don't really tolerate any hateful reviews.
Thanks guys, and I want to ask you something. How old do you think I am? I will PM you to tell you if you are close, but I obviously won't tell you my real age. I was just wondering how old you think I am. Soo, remember to review? I worked really hard on this chapter, I REALLY hope you like it!
