Prologue
Annabeth's POV
First day of school, great I thought. Time for the torture to begin again. I grabbed my backpack, and looked at myself in the mirror one more time. My hair was in a tight ponytail, and I was wearing some jeans with an orange T-shirt. I looked pretty normal. I had no make-up on, due to the fact that I don't like it and my boyfriend wouldn't either.
Yes you heard, I have a boyfriend. It's not that I care what he thinks, but if I don't do something that he likes, then I'll receive some extra bruises. I frowned to myself and then put on my fake smile. I walked downstairs and made myself breakfast. I left some waffles for the twins, Bobby and Matthew, and then walked to school. Since it was raining I opened my umbrella and enjoyed the small breeze hitting my face. It was the only thing that calmed me down.
As I stood in front of the school filled with students, I took a deep breath. I climbed up the stairs, waited for a second and then entered. As I came inside I instantly walked towards my locker with my head low, grabbed my books and started walking towards class. Why aren't any of my friends talking to me? Great question, I would have an answer if I had any friends. No one really bothered to talk to me the first day of school last year, and I was okay with that. That's when Luke came into my life. He was charming and handsome, all a girl could ask for. He asked me out one day, and I gladly accepted. But things started to change, he became aggressive with me. I tried to break up with him, but he threatened me to kill me. He said his dad was a police man so he could easily hide all the evidence. Since then, my life has been at its turning point.
My thoughts were broken when someone bumped into me, dropping all the books I was holding.
"Sorry, do you need-" I instantly grabbed them from the floor and continued walking running into the person's shoulder, but I kept walking. "What's your problem?" he exclaimed but I ignored him and kept walking.
I finally arrived to chemistry class, Luke was waiting for me in one of the back seats. He always chose the farthest seats from the teachers so he could torture me if he thought something was wrong. I really wanted to sit somewhere else but I knew if I did he would punch me after school even worse than other times. I slowly walked towards the seat. He smiled when he saw me. I quietly sat down not saying a word, placed my books on the desk and placed the backpack next to my seat.
He greeted me, "Hey sweetheart," and started playing with one of the rebellious curls that had fallen from the ponytail.
Then he entered. The 'scariest' guy in school. He was a jock, but everyone feared him since he was the leader of a gang. The teachers thought they were just rumors so they didn't care. He wasn't as you would think, an ugly fat bully. No, he was actually pretty handsome, he defended those victims of bullying. Which was really ironic, him being the leader of a gang and all. He had jet-black hair, deep sea-green eyes, and a white smile any girl would die for. He hit me as a son of Poseidon for some reason, which was ironic since his real dad was named Poseidon, a famous owner of a ship company. For some reason, when he stepped in the classroom he glared at me.
Why? I don't know. Oh wait! He was the guy I bumped into! Oops. I closed my eyes and pointed my head towards the desk, not wanting to look at anyone. I could hear someone sit in the row in front of me. I opened my eyes to see a backpack in the desk in front of mine. I pointed my head upwards to see a jet-blacked hair guy, him, Percy Jackson.
The teacher, Ms. Stanley, came in and placed her stuff in the desk.
"Hi class! Welcome back to school!" she smiled. Everyone groaned, but me, I kept quiet. "So today we will be starting with a lab! I know it's a little early but I want to review a little on last year's learning's."
"But miss! Can't we just take a day off! Getting to school was tiring enough!" Connor Stoll exclaimed. One of the pranksters in the school along with his older brother, who is like minutes older, Travis. Both of them are twins, if you haven't figured it out. They're pretty cute with their dirty blonde hair and light blue eyes. But they're not my type, thought then again no one's my type.
"Connor, this is the first day of school, of course we have to work! And it's going to get worse. And if you get tired that easily you should exercise more," Ms. Stanley informed.
Everyone snickered while Connor kept quiet. Even Travis laughed at his brother. Connor just secretly glared at the teacher's back which made everyone laugh harder.
I snickered a bit but instantly stopped once I saw Luke glare at me. I kept quiet.
Class went pretty normal. Learn, listen to Stoll jokes, laugh, learn, listen to Stoll jokes, teacher gets mad, learn again, a Stoll gets detention, and then the bell rings. As I was getting up, the guy that was sitting next to me. I don't even know his name, winked at me and walked away. Oh, oh. Please don't see it, please don't, I turned to see Luke glaring at the guy's back. Great her we go. He grabbed me violently by the arm and dragged me out of the classroom to an empty hallway.
"Why were you flirting with that guy?" he exclaimed angrily.
"I wasn't flirting I promise!" I screamed.
"Sure you weren't. We'll see how to drive attention now," he yelled and slapped me hard across the face, leaving a red mark and for sure a bruise by tomorrow.
I put my hand over my cheek in pain, dropping all the books I was holding and my backpack to the ground. He grabbed me by my hair aggressively just as the bell rang signaling next class. He growled and then dropped me to the floor.
"This isn't over," he snapped and then walked away to class.
I sat down crying fixing my hair. Stop Annabeth, your used to this. But somehow it felt more painful than last year. I just wanted to wrap up and die in a hole. I cried harder. I didn't care if I was late to class, I was used to it. That's when I heard footsteps running towards me. I snapped my head up to see sea-green eyes. Percy.
My body instantly went into defense mode we he tried to help me up, I jumped away from him and he looked at me suspiciously.
"What happened?" he asked as he examined the slap mark in my cheek.
"Nothing," I muttered, grabbed my books and backpack and then walked towards the restroom. I instantly washed my face and walked to class as quickly as I could. The teacher look at me madly, while everyone else just wondered. Wondered why the girl always came late to class with new bruises every day. Wondered why she was always so alone. Wondered why she didn't ever make any friends. Wondered if it was even possible for her to find real love.
Percy's POV
"Percy wake up!" Nico screamed, but it was useless I wasn't going to wake up. "We're gonna be late to school come on! Percy! PERCY! Ugh," he sighed in frustration. After a few seconds I didn't hear anyone, I thought he was gone until a bucket full of cold water was dumped on top of me. I instantly awoke.
"What was that for!" I screamed.
"You wouldn't wake up," he smiled innocently. Yeah right, innocent. He could be the son of Hades himself. (A/N: XD The Irony, I'm going to have a lot of these so watch out lol)
"Yeah right," I muttered and got out of bed to change. "I'm taking a shower."
I grabbed some clothing from my wardrobe and then entered the restroom. I took a cold shower, brushed my teeth and then impossibly tried to brush my hair. But as usually, it remained messy.
I sighed and exited the restroom. Nico was sitting in the couch playing on the IPhone5 he stole from a lady in the park. I smiled at his immaturity. Then again we are in a gang so we might be considered as 'bad'.
"Come on let's go on to school," I exclaimed and grabbed my backpack.
"Why!" Nico groaned, "Can't we just skip a day?"
"No we cant, it's the first day of school; and anyways were heading to the gang house after school, so we have to go," I rolled my eyes.
"Fine," he gave up. I exited the small apartment along with Nico and walked towards the truck we owned. I got in the driver's seat, while Nico sat in the passenger's seat, and turned on the engine. We drove along the raining streets towards Goode High school.
You're probably wondering why two 17 year-old's live alone in a small apartment. Well ever since my mother died we've been living there taking care of our needs. And don't ask anymore questions, anyways. As we arrived at the school I grabbed my backpack and went in with Nico.
"So what's your first class?" I asked him.
He took out his schedule and examined it, "Calculus, ugh," he groaned.
"I have Chemistry," I replied not even bothering to check my schedule since I had already memorized it.
"Hey Percy, Nico," Jason greeted as he arrived with Travis, Connor, Grover and Grover's girlfriend, Juniper.
"Hey, guys, Juni," I greeted nicely. Juniper smiled at me. "So are you guys going to be able to make it to the gang house after school?" I asked.
"Yeah, my parents are going to pick up my sister," Jason rolled his eyes.
"Sister..." I try to recall a sister but I couldn't remember her. "What sister?"
"You have a sister?" Nico confusedly questioned.
"Yeah... my sister... Pine trees? Remember?" he asked. Pinecone face!
"Thalia!" I exclaimed. Nico looked at me weirdly until his eyes widened in remembrance.
"Pinecone face!" he screamed. I laughed at the nickname.
"You have a sister?" Juniper asked Jason.
He nodded and said, "Yeah, she moved away with our Aunt Artemis for a while, but now she's coming back. She's annoying."
"Yeah, I know remember the time that we went to summer camp and-" I couldn't finish my sentence because I bumped into someone and dropped all their books. "Sorry, do you need-" I apologized but she ignored me and walked away with her books. I looked at her blonde hair in shock, so she just ignored me like that? Doesn't she know who I am? "Whats your problem?" I exclaimed, but she didn't bother looking back.
I turned to back to the guys. They were snickering while Juniper was smiling trying not to laugh.
"What are you guys laughing about?" I asked annoyed.
"Dude, she completely ignored you!" Travis couldn't hold it anymore and high fived Connor.
"Very mature, who was that anyways," I questioned. They shrugged except Juniper.
"She's in our class, her name's Annabeth Chase, she's really shy," she replied.
"How do you know?" Grover asked while he put his arm around her shoulder's.
She put a hand over her mouth, "So you haven't heard? It's already old news!"
"Heard of what?" Connor questioned.
"Annabeth is Luke's girlfriend since last year! He's basically always with her, and only friend or well if boyfriend counts as that," she muttered. "I tried to talk to her but she completely ignored me. She's almost always at the library, even during lunch break."
"Talk about weird," Travis added.
For some reason, Annabeth being Luke's girlfriend bothered me. I got a weird feeling that something wasn't right.
"The bell's about to ring, Grover and I better get to class, bye guys!" Juniper said and lead Grover to class. He waved goodbye. Nico and Jason headed off to their class while I went to Chemistry with the Stoll brothers.
As I entered I saw the girl I bumped into, Annabeth, sitting in the desk at the very back next to Luke. He was twirling one of her curls which really bothered me. But any so, I glared at her for her rudeness. She noticed me and looked down. I looked around for a desk but Nico, Connor and Travis had already gotten one. I sighed and looked at the desk in front of Annabeth. I sighed again and sat down in it. The teacher came in after a few minutes.
"Hi class! Welcome back to school!" she smiled. I groaned in annoyance. "So today we will be starting with a lab! I know it's a little early but I want to review a little on last year's learning's."
"But miss! Can't we just take a day off! Getting to school was tiring enough!" Connor exclaimed.
"Connor, this is the first day of school, of course we have to work! And it's going to get worse. And if you get tired that easily you should exercise more," Ms. Stanley informed.
I snickered at the view of Connor glaring at the teacher's back. The class continued on normal until finally the bell rang. I got up and grabbed my backpack. As I was about to walk outside, Luke walked angrily out grabbing Annabeth, who looked really scared, by her arm. I looked at him suspiciously, that isn't the way a boyfriend treats her girlfriend.
"Hey Percy what's your next class?" Travis asked.
"History... I'll see you later..." I muttered and walked out following Luke and Annabeth. I hid over in a corner I could hear them fighting.
"Why were you flirting with that guy?" Luke exclaimed furiously.
"I wasn't flirting I promise!" Annabeth screamed. She sounded really scared as if her life depended on it.
"Sure you weren't. We'll see how to drive attention now," he yelled. I could hear a faint noise of slapping, but I must have been imagining it. That's when the bell rang.
"This isn't over," Luke growled.
I instantly walked out of my hiding spot and into the empty hallway. I could see Luke walking away, and Annabeth was sitting in the floor with a red hand mark in her cheek. The scene brought lava into my veins. I ran towards where Annabeth was sitting. She was sobbing hard. I tried to help her up but when she noticed me her head snapped up and she blocked my hands. I looked at her suspiciously, "What happened?" I asked examining the bruise in her face with my eyes.
"Nothing," she muttered, her voice cracking, and walked away. I stood there for a second before I realized I was late.
"Oh shit," I muttered and ran towards History class. But the case wasn't going to be forgotten. I entered the classroom and the teacher looked at me with sadness.
"Sit down," she muttered. I nodded and walked towards an empty seat. The teacher looked disappointed while everyone else wondered. Wondered when the boy was going to stop behaving this way. Wondered if he was ever going to find a way to good. Wondered if he would ever really enjoy life the right way. Wondered if it was even possible for him to find real love.
