Annabeth's POV

A loud groan escaped my mouth for the hundredth time, someone kept tugging on my curls as I walked around camp; and I could never seem to catch them. Fantastic.
"Hey WiseGirl. What's up?" Percy came from the cabins area. His hair was still messy in a handsome way, a smile instantly came to my mouth as we locked eyes. That was until I felt that same tug, Percy looks over my shoulder a lopsided smirk on his lips. I growl and turn around swiftly. No one! Ugh who is it!! Percy laughs and brings me into his arms.
"Who was it?!?! Perseus Jackson you tell me right now!" I demand,  I dig my nails into his sweat shirt and pull him down closer to my face. all he does is peck my lips and laughs loudly.
"Sorry Annabeth but that will ruin the fun." His words are playful so are his eyes. Tug.
"What the Hades!" I screech. Still no one. Nico and Will walk this way, both their faces are flushed.
"What's wrong Annabeth?" Asks Nico, his dark eyes so curious, he tilts his head looking like an adorable kitten.
"Someone keeps tugging at my curls!! And I can't catch them." I say in an irritated tone. Percy does a fake pout and kisses my cheek. Will laughs as I feel another tug, soon Nico joins in to. Okay so Will, Nico and Percy are here so it's not them. I'm guessing it's Leo, he's the only one that might actually be stupid enough. I deflated when I hear Leo cry out in anger.
"Who the keeps touching my effin curls?" Okay.. maybe not Leo. He spins in circles, eyes squinted. Calypso is at his side giggling away at his frustration.
"Leo!! Come here!" I yell as loud as I can, Percy flinches covering his ears. Calypso looks puzzled, but they do come over.
"What can I help you with?" He says in a fake snobbish voice. We all roll our eyes and Calypso smacks his head.
"I think if we stick together we can find whoever keeps pulling at our curls." He smiles, a genuine one.
"Ah Perfect!" Leo keeps moving his hands, fiddling with a bronze wire between his nimble fingers.
"WiseGirl, you're not going find them. Trust me." Piper says with a smirk her face, Jason laughing along with everyone else.
"Oh yeah, and why are you so sure?" Leo asks raising his eyebrows. Piper only laughs,
"Because I'm the best." Speaks a new voice coming from behind. Behind us is a girl with russet coloured skin, long hair that's black like the night, with blue and red streaks. She has tattoos on her arms, five piercings on both her ears and her eyebrow done, the interesting thing about her is her bright blue eyes mixed with gray, she's wearing a camp shirt, that's been cut up in to a crop top kind of style, black shorts and Adidas high tops. She's got loads of black bracelets on her wrists and a mischievous smile. She extends her hand out for me to shake. I eventually do.
"Skylar Underwood. Pleasure to meet you." Her voice is silky and smooth.
"Um I'm confused, what do you have to do with it?" Leo scratches his head.
"I've been the one tugging your guys hair all day, Piper and Percy paid me to do it. Speaking of which, pay up." she sticks her hand out and they both hand her twenty dollars each. She smiles.
"Well if that's done I must be going now, if you ever need any thing else just call me." She Hands us all a business card.
"Wait who is your godly parent?" I wonder. She throws her head back and laughs,
"My dad is Hermes." She says proudly,  wait she probably took some things.
"I'm not trying to be offensive, but since you're a child of Hermes you understand I want to make sure you have nothing of mine right." Nico says in an even tone, her shoulders slump and she pouts. She pulls out, Nico's skull ring, Will's watch, Piper's gold necklace, Jason's wallet, Percy's wallet, 100 some what dollars and finally my dad's collage ring. wow she has got to be third best in her cabin.
"Damn girl,  you have sticky fingers." She giggles,
"You have no idea." She skips away, her hair flying behind her. I glare at Percy and Piper. 
"Pay back time." I growl. Leo catches his hands on fire, and singed off their eyebrows. Piper yelps running to her cabin, and Percy screams running towards the lake. Oh he's so getting it tonight.
"You're a dead man!" Leo and I scream in unison.

Yay I finished it, Okay I thought if this because my sister has really long hair, and she gets so pissed off when I pull it. But you know what I loathe? When people make Percabeth goes to high school fan fics where the popular girl is some dumb cake face girl who is a major slut. Like seriously? How are they popular if they look like that? Just doesn't make sense to me. Also I was listening to Dark Hoarse by Katy Perry and Juicy Jay and for an odd reason I though of Frank and Hazel, and A Thousand years seems perfect for Calypso and Leo.
