Chapter 5

I woke up still half-asleep.

I hate mornings.

I walk to the bathroom trying to walk properly.

Shower is the best place.I pick up my lemon shampoo,wash my hair and go to my wardrobe.

I wear a black t-shirt with white shorts and Vans to complete the outfit.

Then I went to my dressing table to dry my hair and brush my blonde curls.

I take another glance at Percy's window but unfortunately he was not there.

Then I went downstairs,picked up an apple and got ready to leave.

"Need a ride?"Dad asked looking up from his breakfast.

Bobby and Matthew like always fight for a piece of marshmallow.

"No thanks,"I reply and got out of the house.

I could see Percy on his bike,across the road,his hair gelled up.

He was wearing a blue t-shirt with ripped denim jeans.

I went near him and tapped his shoulder.

"Oh hi Wise Girl!"he said handing me the helmet.

"Hi seaweed brain.Ready to go?"

"Always my princess."

My princess.

I clutch on to his waist tightly.

He starts the bike and soon we are at school.

We are welcomed on the front gate by Hazel.

"Hey Haze,"Percy says and walks over to Leo who was eating Jason's head from his expression

"Hey Percy.Hey Annabeth,"Hazel said walking with me.

"Hey Hazel,"I said.

"You know you can call me Haze.Everybody has nicknames here.So I'll call you..Annie?"

"I don't like it but my friends can say me anything Haze,"I said smiling at her.

"So Annie,I wanted to ask you if you and Percy are together?"

I look at her in shock.

"You know Haze that I just met all of you,including Percy,yesterday?"

"I know but sometimes it gets really fast you know,"Hazel said shyly.

"Yeah I know.Let's go to the others,"I said walking towards Thalia and Calypso.

"Sure,"Hazel said following me.

*Lunch Time*

Me and Piper walk together to our table.

Piper was with me because we had the period before break i.e. Chemistry.

I have the next period with Percy,Maths.

Me and Piper sit on the chair after greeting everybody.

We all gossiped and laughed the entire time.

*Hallway*

Me and Percy walked together to our lockers.

I took out my register and homework.

Like always Percy didn't do his homework and took out a crumbled piece of paper.

His locker is mostly filled with posters,his bag and his duffle bag which contains his swimming stuff.

Percy has been our school's swimming captain for three years straight.

"So are you going to try out for the captain this year,"I said locking the locker door.

Percy comes to me and says,"Only if you'll come to cheer me."

I giggle and say,"I promise to be in your every swimming meet."

"Then I'm trying out for sure,"Percy said winking at me.

"Hey Percy,"a voice came from behind.

I saw a girl with a mini skirt and crop top,with black wavy hair and a thick layer of mascara.

I wondered what she would look like if she cried but my eyes were fixed on what she was doing.

 She rubbed Percy's hair but Percy quickly removed her hand from his hair.

I felt kind of good but hey we're not together.

Brush off the thoughts Annabeth.

"Screw off Drew,"Percy said yelling at Drew.

Drew looked at me and rolled her eyes.

Then she went back to Percy and said,"Aww Percy!Calm down my baby.I'll meet you tomorrow?"

Saying this she sashayed away.

Percy looked back at me.

"Don't mind her Annabeth.She's just a bitch.I don't know what guys see in her.Every week she has a new boyfriend."

"Obviously.She is beautiful,"I said in a tiny voice.

Percy lifted my chin and said,"Not more beautiful than you.Let's go to class."

I walked beside Percy but his words were still coming in my head.

Not more beautiful than you.

*Maths class*

Me and Percy sat together again.

Mrs.Dodds came and started speaking.

Percy asked me to explain whatever Mrs.Dodds was explaining.

Jeez!This boy doesn't even know what's going on in the class.

I started to explain but I noticed that Percy's gaze was not on the paper.

He was staring at my face.

I waved my hand in front of his face.

"Percy?"

He woke up from day dreaming.

"Oh sorry Wise girl!I was lost in your beautiful face,"he said winking.

I facepalmed and started to explain Percy again.

*Dispersal*

Me and Percy go to his bike after we said goodbye to everyone.

I grabbed on his waist and soon we were at my house's driveway.

I got down and gave back the helmet to Percy.

"I might come to your house,"Percy said taking the helmet from me.

My eyes grew wide.

"Why?"

"My mom told that we would welcome your family.And by the way,are you not happy?"Percy said pouting.

"No I am very glad you will come.Just that was a surprise,"I said placing my hand on my neck.

"See ya Wise Girl!"

"See ya Seaweed Brain,"I said walking towards my house.

I looked back to see Percy going in his driveway.

"It'll be a hard evening,"I said to myself opening the door.
