Moving In
Percy POV
I stood in front of my new appartment, nervous.
A few weeks ago, I had been accepted into the University of Florida to study Marine Science. Darcy had also been accepted (and would be moving in within the week), studying Music Education. We had agreed to move in together if we both got accepted, which would save us money in the long run.
I shakily reached out and unlocked the door, slowly stepping into the new apartment. It wasn't very spacious, with only two rooms and one bath. That would be enough for the both of us, since we'd be sharing a room and the other would be an office. The kitchen appliances appeared to be in good shape, and only one of the cabinets were missing a handle.
"Home sweet home..." I muttered, looking around.
Silently, I wished Darcy had secretly followed me here to help me set up. But alas, she didn't. So it was up to me, myself, and I to bring our new furniture up.
I made my way downstairs, ignoring the one dude staring after me. Once I reached my truck, I opened the bed and slid the matress out. Once the matress hit the ground, I slowly started pulling it into the building. The one dude was still on the stairs.
"Would you like some help?" I nodded, heaving. He grabbed the other end and picked it up, carefully following me up the stairs.
Once we reached my apartment, I kicked open the door and shuffled inside. We leaned the bed against the wall, panting.
"I'm Jonas, by the way." He offered me his hand. I shook it.
"I'm Percy," he looked at me strange. "Well, Persophone, but I prefer to be called Percy."
"Ah." he looked around. "You new here?"
"Yeah. My....partner had to stay behind, but they'll be here sometime this week. I left early to set everything up." I stretched.
"Would you like a hand with everything else, then?"
"If it's not to much trouble..."
Jonas gave me a smile before following me back to my car.

Within a few hours, we had everything upstairs. Jonas helped me position the furniture, giving me hints to make more room.
"Thank you Jonas. I would've died trying to do this myself." I said, leaning against the doorway.
"No problem. Hey, when your 'partner' gets here, we should hang otu sometime."
I nodded before waving goodbye. He flashed a smile before dissapearing down the stairs.
Going back into the room, I started to put up our personal items. Pictures were hung up, and so was our old Avengers poster. I carelessly tossed some throw pillows onto the couch, not bothering to straighten them up.
Once I finished deorating, I sat down and made a list of food. I'd do some grocery shopping in the morning, to lazy to go out and do it tonight. I changed into some comfy clothes before ordering pizza.
Once the pizza arrived, I stuffed a twenty in the dude's hand before slamming the door. I took the pizza over to the couch and turned on the phone. I took my time eating, devoting much of my attention to the current episode of 'The Big Bang Theory'.

Later that night, I called Darcy. She sounded sick-ish, so I kept the conversation short. I told her about the apartment, and how I situated it. I left out the part about Jonas, since Darcy can be a jealous bitch at times.
When we hung up, I made my way to bed. My feet and head ached, my legs sore. I inserted my ear phones and turned on my iPod, drifting to sleep with Cassie playing in my ears.
