Highschool Drama [ON HOLD]

Annabeth has a boyfriend and Kylie keeps dragging people!

Chapter-9
Annabeth
I got up to my alarm blaring right next to my ear and went to take a shower. I wore a Tank top with jeans and pulled on Percy's swim team hoodie.

It had his last name on the back but I didn't care.

After I came out, I saw that Percy was still sleeping so I kissed him on the cheek and went to the kitchen for breakfast.
"Hey Sally" I hugged her.
"Hi dear" she said hugging me back and then went back to cooking.

Since I had come here, she had treated me like her own daughter and we had become pretty close( Percy thinks that his mother mighty like me more than him...pfft. Jealous).

After eating breakfast, I ran to the bus stop and reached just on time. I got on and sat somewhere. Looking out the window, I zoned off.

When I got to school, I went to my locker and opened it. I was taking out some books when I heard it.

"Hey babe! Miss me?" A smug voice said.

"Mark" I said, "I think you should be aware of a few things before you hit on me. One, I have a boyfriend and he will not like it that you are hitting on me. He is extremely protective. Two, get the hell away from me."I told him.

I slammed the locker door in his face and started making my way to class.

I was just a few steps away when I felt my wrist being pulled back by a hand.

"Aww.......Don't be mad." He smirked.

I snatched my hand away and glared at him. I was about to give him a snarky reply when he started talking again.

"Playing hard to get eh?" He said, "Don't worry. You'll fall for me eventually." He just winked and left.

I stood there thinking about all the ways I could kick his ass when the bell rang and shook me out of my thoughts. I shook my head and headed to class.

I couldn't concentrate on class. The whol time I kept thinking about how Percy would react if he'd seen what Mark's been doing and his actions towards me. He'd probably act protective over me, even though he knows I can handle Mark by myself.

One thing I noticed about Mark was that in every class we had together (I made sure to sit far away from him), he stared at me.
Till lunch that is.

After the last class before lunch, I went to my locker to keep my things and then headed towards the cafeteria. I saw Kylie and the others at a table and started walking towards them.

I was almost there when they turned and saw me. I waved at them, holding my food in one hand, and they waved back. And then, Kylie got up and came to me. Before I knew what was happening, she dragged me to their table even though I was coming there. I had a feeling she also knew that. But like, did she have something with dragging people all the time ?

"Kylie..." I drawled as I shook my head, chuckling, "I was coming there you know" I said.

"Ya, I know. But the thing is, you were walking so slowly and I...um....ran out of patience." She said, embarrassed.

"Oh my gods! I feel like seeing my boyfriend. Like you both are practically twins." I laughed.

"You have a boyfriend?" She asked me, looking skeptical.

"Haha, yep." I said. Her expression went from doubtful to excitement in one second.

"Eeeeeekk!!!! Wait!! Does he study here? Is he tall? Is he handsome? Smart? Does he wear glasses?" She bombarded me with questions the whol time we were at lunch. Soon the others figured out what she was talking about and also started throwing random questions at me. I tried to answer all of them, but seeing their expressions I couldn't help but laugh. They were asking questions till the stage where I thought that they couldn't possibly come up with anymore questions. But the surprising thing is that they didn't ask his name. So I guess they could come up with one more question. Well, surprise I guess.

I was so occupied at lunch that I completely forgot about Mark. But that didn't last for long cause I had English after lunch and so did Mark. Oh joy! More suffering from the insufferable flirt. Hope my luck doesn't give up on me.

"Will you please get the freaking hell away from me." I said, walking faster.

"Aww..come on Annie. We both know you want me." He said, following me.

A lot of control was needed from my side to keep me from kicking him where it really hurt.

Okay. I guess I need to back up and fill you in on what the freaking hell is going on. Right?. Ok. So you see, I was able to be out of Mark's sight till the last period. Yes, I was running away from the one and only annoying Mark. And the annoying where it's not like Percy. At the end of last period, he spotted me. My luck ran out I guess. Since then, he's been following me around and you know the rest. So back to the problem at present.

"I. Don't. Like. Like. You. In fact, I'm starting to hate you." I snarled at him.

"That hurt." He (obviously) fake pouted, "Come on, be nice to you soon-to-be-boyfriend now won't you." He said.

"I already told you and I'll say it again. I have a boyfriend. And if you don't believe me, this is his hoodie I'm wearing." I told him, hoping he would just leave for gods' sake, but the universe hates me so he didn't go away.

"Well, something he doesn't know won't hurt him, right?" He smirked.

I snapped at that. I was not going to betray the guy who turned down immortality and fell into Tartarus for me. I had almost hit him if Nathaniel hadn't intervened.

"Dude, she said she had a boyfriend didn't she? Just leave her alone will you." He said.

"What? Are you her boyfriend? Cause you sure are acting like it." Mark growled.

"Of course not. He's my friend." I answered , " Now please go away before I lose my cool."

"Don't think I'm leaving because I'm scared of you." He said, then left with a last glare at Nathaniel.

"Thanks man. I was really starting to get to me. If you hadn't come, he would probably be going home with a broken bone." I laughed.

Eh! It's okay." He shrugged, "That's what friends are for." He said and then looked at his watch. "Oh crap! I gotta go. See you tomorrow." He waved at me then ran out of the school.

I stopped by my locker once and then left to the bus.
