Locked in Like a Psycho
{Percy}
Everybody stared, amazed at the fact.
"We're locking you up for sure." Jason said. I looked over at Leo, who appeared to be talking to someone out of my view. Clarisse and Nico looked stunned, and honestly, I was stunned too.
"It's not my fault," I say. "It's the potion!"
"We know." Piper said. "And that's the bad part... Magic is risky. Dangerously scary. You could even go insane."
"Case dismissed." Jason said.
"Well," I sigh, "I'm already locked up like a psycho."
"And you'll stay that way until the potion wears off. Should wear off Wednesday. In the meantime, you should talk to Annabeth." Jason said. "Smooth things out."
Something said to say no. I needed to see Carey. Wait, what? No, I am not thinking like that. Another something yelled even louder, ANNABETH!! ANNABETH ANNABETH IS ANNABEST! You love her, you can't wait to see her! You can't wait to hold her and kiss her.
"But I need to-" I stopped for a second. Wait, no. I didn't need to. I hated Carey Simpson.
"What?" Piper said.
"Nothing." I say.
"Tell us exactly what you were going to say." Jason ordered. "You swore."
"The swore wore off when you said, 'case dismissed,' so technically, no I did not swear." I say. I wasn't telling them anything else.
Jason narrowed his eyes. "He's right. My father is laughing at my stupidity... And telling me you are right..."
"That's because I am." I say. "And what I was going to say is none of your business... It's a personal matter."
Piper looked grim. "You're still under surveillance and recording. I'll call Chiron. Goodbye."
Piper walked out with a firm demeanor, and started to talk to someone out of my view. Then whoever it was stepped into my view, crying, and hugged Piper.
It was Annabeth. She was crying, over me...
"Annabeth!" I yelled, straining against my bonds. "Annabeth! Annabeth!"
"Stop!" Jason yelled, pushing me back.
I kept yelling, and then Jason stabbed me with something... A needle, I think. I felt woozy, and then slumped down in my seat, feeling tired. I fought heavy sleep, still murmuring Annabeth's name.
"DAYUM, Percy..." Jason said. "You're staying awake just for her?"
"Annabeth... Annabeth. Annabeth... Annabeth, Annabeth..." I say sleepily. "Yes... Annabeth, Annabeth, Annabeth..."
Jason's expression looked awed, for once. No, he didn't look awed when I resisted a love potion or did anything for Annabeth. But, damn, when I resist sleep medicine the world ends. No, I didn't survive Tartarus, the Labyrinth, 2 prophecies. I don't resist a love potion for Annabeth or anything! But of course he looks awed when I fight sleep medicine.
"Annabeth! Piper!" Jason yelled. Leo looked up, and Jason yelled, "Hurry!"
Leo put a microphone like they have at movie theatre ticket booths near his mouth.
"And why exactly do you need them?" Leo asked.
"It's... An emergency...? Just get them!" Jason sighed.
"On it." Leo then yelled, "Piper! Annabeth!" At the top of his lungs. Jason put his hands to his ears, at the booming sound. I was tied up.
"Oh, sorry..." Leo apologized. "Forgot to cover the mic."
"No shit, Sherlock." Jason made a 'I'm-gonna-kill-you-in-your-sleep-face' at Leo before pulling up a chair in front of me.
Jason left, and then Annabeth came in. As soon as she saw me she ran to me and hugged me. I kissed her, and she ran her hands through my hair. I might've hugged her back, but I was a little condemned to chains for now.
"Thank Zeus you're ok!" Annabeth said, tears sparkling in her eyes.
"You actually should probably thank Aphrodite." I shrug. She slapped me.
"After what just happened that's the first thing you're gonna say to me?" She asked.
"And the second is, how long do I have to stay tied up?" I asked, grinning. She slapped me again, and I had the nerve to laugh.
"Percy do you know how worried I was?" She asked.
"Don't be." I reply.
She looked like this time she was gonna knock my teeth out, but I guess she decided if she did that I wouldn't be as cute.
"Alright, well now we have a new thing to worry about." She paused, as if she was waiting for me to say it. Um, had she not noticed I was pretty stupid? She sighed, and continued. "She knows we're demigods."
"Oh... Right.." I reply.
"That's a danger." Annabeth said. "Jason just contacted Chiron and explained. Now we're gonna call him from in here. Chiron is supposedly coming here to check on us."
I felt so relieved. I couldn't wait to see Chiron.
