Where is he, where is he, where is he?!

Percy Jackson has not come to school for the past two weeks and I am still waiting for him to ask me out!

Oh never mind, I'll do it myself. Boys are all the same anyway.

Listen closely: if you look cute, show lots of skin, act like the damsel in distress and flirt with him ALL the time, he will easily fall for you.

I have been working on Percy for a while now – usually it takes a little under 2 weeks, but Percy is special, he's... genuine, you know?

And hot and strong and cute and amazing and sporty and I'm losing my train of thought....

Where was i?

Right.

Percy. Is. Mine.

And I made sure everybody knew it.

e.g. Jess and Teresa were talking about how hot Percy is and betting which one of them he would ask out first in the locker room yesterday while we were getting ready for gym and simply walked up to them and said "I'm afraid it's gonna be me Percy asks, I've been working on him for months."

It was funny to see how defeated they looked!

But it's true, I get every boy I set my sights on. I was brought out of my thoughts by the annoyingly loud school bell and I stalked off to math, making sure my hips were swaying just a little more than they needed to.

"Hey Percy" I purred, batting my eyelashes at him. I really want him to just give up the charade and kiss me! But I suppose class is about to start and all the boys here would try to beat Percy up for kissing me....

(AN/ this girl is so unbelievably delusional, I am seriously considering deleting her)

It seems like he was thinking the same thing, because he looked somewhat uncomfortable when he said "um... hey Lucy, ready for the test?"

I stopped. Test?! I never heard about this!

"Test? What test?" I asked him. "y'know the one for the first half of the trigonometry unit?" I shook my head and I noticed that there were bags under his eyes.

"Are you tired or something? 'cause we would ditch this class, wanna grab a bite with me?" I offered, trying to kill two birds with one stone.

He made an odd expression. "umm.... No.. thanks, I'm tired because Annabeth helped me study and it took a large chunk out of my sleeping time."

I silently cursed. I haven't been paying attention at all during classes! Maybe I can force one of the nerdy people to do it...

"Who's Annabeth?"

"Annabeth's my-" he stopped as the teacher walked in.

"I hope" she said as she looked around the room "that everyone is ready for our test. Remember that if you got below 50% on the last test, and if you don't get at least 80% on this test, I got a month's worth of detentions for you. This means you Mr. Percy Jackson, Ms. Lucy Retilia and Mr. Blake Edwards!"

Her eyes found mine and I swallowed nervously. 80%?! No way am I gonna get that!

"You have 40 minutes. Your time starts... now!"

Papers were turned over. The test that I will definitely not pass has begun.

Q1. Find the exact value of the following without using a calculator

(* = degrees)

Sin 30*

2 x cos 45*

(csc 60*)

2

It's official. I'm screwed.

------TIME SKIP TO END OF TEST------

I answered, like, five questions and I'm sure all of them are wrong.

Speaking of questions....

"Hey Percy!" I called, running up to him as fast as I could in my stilettoes and body-hugging dress.

"You never told me," I puffed ,"who Annabeth was."

"Annabeth's my girlfriend" he said and he walked off, leaving me with the worst shock expression on my face, probably leaving permanent wrinkles.

---ANOTHER TIME SKIP TO END OF SCHOOL---

I 'overheard' Percy telling his friends that this so-called girlfriend of his is coming to pick him up to go shopping for her dad's birthday.

But, I wasn't eavesdropping or anything.

So here I was, perched on a bench, waiting for Annabeth to pick up her soon-to-be ex-boyfriend. I got bored quickly so I pulled out a magazine and started reading.

After a while, a shadow blocked out the words. I looked up angrily. "Excuse you! Can't you see I'm trying to read here!"

The girl snorted and muttered "if you can call that literature." I stood up, fully prepared to give this girl a piece of my mind. Then I saw her face.

I had to grudgingly admit that she was gorgeous, with perfect blond hair, naturally in princess curls, a great tan and a really fit body. She needs contacts though. And better clothes.

"umm did you want something?" I asked, completely forgetting my lecture on the importance of magazines.

She made a face as if she'd rather be doing anything else than talking to me. "I was wondering if you know where a guy called Percy is."

"Annabeth?" I asked, she nodded cautiously.

I take back all the previous comments about her being gorgeous.

"He hasn't come out yet. I'm waiting for him though, he's my boyfriend. Yeah, he's cheating on you and he says he hates you" I lie.

She stares at me for a couple of seconds and I think she believed me... waiting for the tears.

She burst out laughing.

Why?

"Oh yeah, 'cause you're a really convincing liar" she giggled.

Suddenly, two arms snaked around her waist and she playfully elbowed the owner of the arms. "Percy, c'mon stop playing around! We have to get going if we're going to make it in time!"

"But I haven't seen you in aaaaages" he complained childishly. Annabeth rolled her eyes.

"Um Percy, we live in the same apartment."

My jaw dropped. "wha....you...an...him....you...you're LIVING TOGETHER?!"

They both looked at me like they forgot I was there. "Yup" was all I got.

Annabeth tried to wriggle out of Percy's tight grip, but was unsuccessful. So she flipped him.

"C'mon Seaweed Brain, we gotta go" she said, chuckling a bit.

She pulled Percy up and they both ran towards a greenish-bluish corvette and sped off.

Then I realized what happened.

I lost..... to someone like her!

Here's a little extra!!!

Charlie's POV (girl)

I think it's annoying how everyone immediately runs away from me in the hallways. Ok so I'm active and a bit violent! So what?

Wimps.

To make matters worse, because of my name, everyone thinks I'm a guy. One time, in my previous school, the resident douchebag came up to challenge me to a fight, since he heard about my reputation.

It didn't end well (for him anyway).

All the teachers immediately plop me in the front row as well! I keep telling them that I'm not gonna beat up the smart people and threaten them to do my homework, but they don't listen!

Do I just have a face no one listens to? (again)

(AN/ if you got that reference – you rock!)

After school, I walk straight to the gym. My uncle owns it so I don't have to pay for membership. I start of the punching bags and I have only been here for around 20 minutes when – I can't believe my eyes – Annabeth Chase walks in, closely followed by a (kinda cute) guy with messy raven-coloured hair.

They go into their respective change rooms, and come out in average gym cloths. The only thing that isn't average is their muscles!

Annabeth is the very definition of nerd. No seriously, you look up 'nerd' on Wikipedia and her face comes up. Here's the special thing though:

Nerds. Aren't. Toned.

Annabeth pushes the guy towards the treadmills, laughing, and she takes the punching bag next to mine. We throw punches for a bit until I hear a 'whoosh' sound from next to me.

I look over at Annabeth and you'll never guess what she did. She broke the damn punching bag. "Hey Percy!" she called. The raven-haired (cute) guy she was with earlier came over.

"Wow, you split it already?" he asked, amusement in his voice. She looked sheepish. "Don't laugh Seaweed Brain! Help me take it off the hook."

Ok, Annabeth split the punching bag, but there was no way that this dude was gonna lift it. They weigh like fifty tonnes!

He just stood under it and lifted the thing up like he does this kind of thing every day. Who the flippin' heck are these people?!

Finally she noticed me staring at them. "oh... hey Charlie...." She coughed awkwardly.

"h-hey... how did you do that?" I asked, curiosity and awe in my voice. "Heh, just loads of practice" she smirked, then she elbowed Percy (was that seriously his name?) like it was an inside joke and the whole world was outside.

"Hey I'm Percy" he introduced. I nodded back to him. "Charlie."

Without another word, he shouldered the punching bag and walked towards the front counter, sand trailing behind him.

Weird.

Was it just me, or did they seem..... not human?
