Hey! Thanks for reviewing! Now here's chapter 9 enjoy! Also sorry for the long wait. I kind of lost interest :( I'm sorry !

Annabeth's POV

So, let's get something straight. Sitting alone at a party isn't at all, the least bit of fun. I've been sitting on the same brown leather couch for the last forty-five minutes and now, my butt is numb. I was also drinking what I think and hope is fruit punch.

Someone sat down beside me and I looked up to see Bianca Di Angelo sitting beside me.

"Hey, I bet sitting here isn't very fun," she said smiling at me.

"No, it isn't." I confirmed grimly.

"You should go flirty with boys, or something."

"Do you mean the decent ones who are all dancing with their dates, or the drunks who are passed out?"

"Well not all the decent guys are taken you know. Do you see that guy over there?"

I turned my head and saw a very good looking blond guy wearing a burgundy t-shirt, sitting alone on the edge of the pool dangling his feet in the water.

"What's his name?" I asked curiously.

"Luke Castellan, he's a senior but I know he likes blond girls." she said grinning.

Bianca took my hand and yanked me off the couch. She then dragged me over to Luke Castellan, despite my many protests.

"Hey, Luke!" Bianca said looking down at the boy sitting on the ledge.

"Hey ,what's up Bianca?" he looked up smiling at her. I noticed immediately his very pretty blue eyes.

"I wanted to introduce you to my friend Annabeth Chase, she's new."

"Well, Annabeth, you're looking very pretty tonight." he said smiling at me now. "Why don't you sit with me?"

I sat down next to him, and the next thing I knew, Bianca, was saying some excuse to leave.

"So, would you like to dance?" Luke said suddenly. I couldn't help but think : Wow, that was quick.

"Um, sure."

Luke got up and offered me his hand, which I took. He pulled me to my feet and led me to the dance floor.

We danced at a couple good song, them out of nowhere Percy and Rachel were dancing next to us. Percy, seemed to have noticed us too because he stopped dancing and looked at me funny.

"Annabeth, I didn't know you were Luke's date." Percy said eyeing Luke's hand on my hip. I immediately backed away from him. Luke's hands went limp at his side.

"No, I'm not, but I didn't have anybody to dance with, you know? Plus I was already out of my mind with boredom, so Bianca introduced me to Luke. "

"You could have told me, we could have hanged out or something."

"No, you wouldn't, I'm your date and your girlfriend, this is my party. Why would you hang with her?" Rachel said looking red in the face.

"Because she's my friend."

"You just met the other day! You can't be friends with this bit-"

"Ladies and Gentlemen! My name is Felix, and I will be you entertainment for tonight!" Everybody groaned.

I turned to see a little boy with brown hair and blue eyes. He was wearing dark jeans and a red shirt. He was also standing on the coffee table with a microphone in his hand.

"Everyone, can you all see me? Can you all hear me? ("I wish I couldn't!" someone shouted.) Good because the Great Felixinni will start his first trick. I will attempt to swallow and burp fire!"

"Oh, NO!" Jason shouted from next to me.

"First I will need a volunteer! Enni-minni- myni- YOU! Boy, with the purple shirt!"

"Jason, that's you!" Piper said pushing him forward.

"Ok, what I want you to do is hold this bucket of water," explained Felix passing Jason the bucket. "and if something goes wrong just dump it on me."

"Ok, " Jason said eyeing the flame "sounds easy enough."

"Now, everyone, countdown from five and I will swallow the flame and burp it out again."

"Five.. four.. three.. two.. ONE!"

Felix, did just as he promised, everyone oh'd and ah'd. He swallowed up the flame then burped it out again. What did not go as planned, was that Felix didn't specify where he would burp the flame..

"My pants! MY PANTS!" Jason dropped the bucked and the water splashed everywhere. He then started running in circles trying to pat the flames out.

"Jason! Stop, drop and roll!" Percy shouted pushing his way thru the crowd.

"My buns are on fire! My buns are on fire!"

"Buns?" Piper asked while laughing.

"My butt!"

Jason ran out on the porch and jumped into the pool. You could see the steam around him. Jason then got out of the pool and started running after Felix.

"Kid, you are so DEAD!" Jason shouted.

"Thank you ladies and gentleman! You've been great! Good night!" Felix shouted as he ran outside, with Jason hot at his heels. Before exiting the door Jason shoved some guy out of the way, who accidentally shoved some other guy.

"Dude, you did not just shove me!" the guy shouted shoving him back.

All of a sudden someone shouted, "Fight!"

Next thing I knew I was being tackled to the floor by Rachel who was shouting in my ear, "He's mine, so stay away!"

"Rachel, stop!" Percy shouted as he tried to pull her off of me. He finally got her off by dragging her by her feet.

"EVERYONE STOP!" Thalia shouted all of a sudden, getting onto the table.

Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at her. Percy who was getting Rachel off the floor and onto her feet did exactly as he was told. He let go of Rachel and she fell to the floor. Rachel then got up and walked away. Her face was so red, that you couldn't see her freckles anymore.

" This is a party, not fight club. You're all acting like little kids!" Thalia went on.

Out of nowhere the cake came flying right at me.

Well at least this tastes good. I thoughtas I wiped cake off my face and eat it.

"Rachel we need to talk!" Percy said taking Rachel's arm and dragging her off.

It took a while, but we finally got Jason in the car.

"Oh, one day I'm gonna kill that kid!" Thalia and I couldn't help but laugh.

"Setting my pants on fire twice... Oh, yeah..well, he won't know what hit'em!" Jason mumbled to himself like some kind of maniac.

"Jason cool off," I said trying to hide my smile.

"You're one to talk, you have cake all over yourself."

"Oh, yeah? Well, at least no one saw my underwear."

Thalia burst out laughing as Jason looked at his burned pants where you could clearly see his blue underwear.

"Shut up, I'm your ride home. I could easily make you walk!"

"Mhhm, whatever helps you sleep at night."

So, what did you think? I'd really like to take the chance and thank everyone that reviewed even after I stopped writing. It really means a lot, and you really encouraged me ! :)

So, review and have a real nice day!
