Couldn't Help But Fall In Love With You (Percy Jackson)

"Seaweed Brain"

Annabeth pov

I started waking up from a dream I had. It was about the famous guitarist I had seen on tv. He had jet black hair but he always wore a mask, never showing his face.

I rubbed my eyes, my curly hair being a mess, and I groaned. I got out of bed and walked to the bathroom and got ready for the day. Once I did that I got changed into my uniform and started working on my hair already knowing it would be impossible well not actually but just really hard to do.

30 minutes later I finally finished. I had untangled my hair and sprayed water only and put it up in a ponytail. Once I did that I went downstairs and took a granola bar before beginning to walk to school, ignoring my mother.

Percy pov

After Thalia and Jason dragged me out of bed, but not before pouring water on me, I got ready for school. After I did I decided not to eat breakfast and we all got in the car and David drove the three of us to school. Once we got to school we all went to our classrooms.

Unfortunately I had english first period which was a torture with my dyslexia. I had to sit next to a girl with blonde curls that were tied back in a ponytail. She looked like a princess..but a lethal one, like she could stab me gracefully somehow...she looked like a poem...and I didn't how to read it, somehow I knew she would be the death of me...wait what are you thinking Percy?

Yeah what are you thinking Percy?

GROVER?! How do you know what I'm thinking?!

Our empathy link remember?

Oh yeah I forgot. Anyway how has the search for Pan been?

Stressful. Everywhere I've been going there is barely any nature and it's breaking me

Oh. Well don't worry, it will probably get better, hopefully

Yeah you're probably right but anyway I have to go now so bye

Bye G-Man

During class we had to do a worksheet and I was struggling so much. The words kept bouncing off the page and I just couldn't understand them. I looked at the girl and she seemed to be struggling as well, maybe she had dyslexia too.

After class ended, it was time for P.E. which was also a torture. We had to play volleyball and I hated it. Every time, the ball kept hitting me in the face so in the end I just sat on the bleachers.

And then I saw her, she played so gracefully I didn't know how she did it. She looked like she was calculating her moves but at the same time was just acting. Like she knew what to do depending on where the ball goes as or went. I saw her beginning to get tired and she sat next to me on the bleachers.

Oooh, who are you thinking about? Does aqua man have a little crush?

"y'know, you really have to stop sneaking up on me like that or I will take your flute," I said, staring ahead. Wait...I said?! I said it out loud?!

Yeah, you kinda did

The blonde girl, Annabeth, who I had learned her name by hearing it get yelled, looked at me like I was crazy. "I didn't think I snuck up on you though, seaweed brain."

"sorry, just..nevermind, my name is Percy Jackson-" "Yeah I know we have some classes together" She looked at Thalia who called her over and jumped off the bleachers, walking back to the court and immediately playing.

Once P.E. was over I walked to class, avoiding everyone and not wanting to talk. I got my backpack and walked to our next class. I sat down on my desk and Annabeth sat next to me since that was her assigned seat. We were in math and we got a worksheet so I tried to work on it for around 15 minutes and I just couldn't do it.
