Percy's POF

Past

Percy had decided that annoying people isn't fun if they ignore you.

He was going around performing his normal routine of annoying everyone in his path, but everyone was ignoring him!

"How can they ignore me?! I'm Skittletastic! People can't just ignore me!" Percy grumbled as he walked down the halls.

He eventually stumbled across Pêrcÿ and Łükê. His mood immediately brightened.

"Hey! What's up? Are you two dating? Does that mean I'm gay? Does that mean I should be with Luke?" Percy overloaded them with questions.

"Um, how about you slo-" Łükê was cut off by Percy.

"You know, I was hot!" He said seriously.

"Excuse me?!" Łükê shouted.

"What do you mean Percy?" Pêrcÿ questioned, ignoring Łükê.

"Well, I mean, looking at you, I realize how hot I looked. Especially with the Emo look." Percy gave Pêrcÿ a look up and down.

"But I'm you." Pêrcÿ said.

"No you're not. You look different, your name is different, your personality is different, as far as I'm concerned, you're a completely different person." Percy said happily.

"Huh, I never thought about it that way." Pêrcÿ gave a pensive look.

"You can't be serious!" Łükê said incredulously.

"It's just a thought Łükê. Calm down." Pêrcÿ said dismissively.

Łükê scoffed and dragged Pêrcÿ away.

"Bye! I'll see you guys later!" Percy shouted after them.

A few hours later, Percy could have been found on the edge of the roof of the castle. Pêrcÿ joined him eventually. They didn't say anything for a while. They just sat there.

"Do you ever think about jumping?" Percy suddenly asked.

"What?" Pêrcÿ responded, a worried look upon his face.

"Jumping. You know, off the edge?" Percy clarified unnecessarily.

"No, I haven't. Have you?" Pêrcÿ gave him a concerned look.

"Yeah, many times. Sometimes I just want to let go, to know how it feels to fall. Having no control over the situation, yet choosing it for myself." Percy said in a scary serene voice.

"Then why don't you?" Pêrcÿ asked curiously.

"I don't know." Percy answered honestly.

They sat in silence for a few minutes.

"So do you ever think about it?" Percy asked.

"Yeah, I guess. But I try not to." Pêrcÿ replied.

Once again silence fell over the pair.

"I'm going to go find Łükê." Pêrcÿ said suddenly.

Percy didn't respond, he just stared at the ground in a trance. So Pêrcÿ left to find Łükê, leaving Percy to his thoughts.

No one noticed when Percy didn't show up the next day.

Heyo! I'm sorry for the late update, I haven't had access to my electronics for enough time to finish this chapter. I've also been healing. I was recently attacked by wasps and stung four times. I then revived a 2nd degree burn on my leg, from an ice pack, an ice pack!!! So I'm sorry for not updating on time. I hope you enjoyed it, and the little cliffhanger on which I left you all. Don't forget, the meet-up is on September 5th. I will post the location sometime tomorrow. Ok, the question is...

What's your favorite fast food restaurant?

Mine is Subway. Yes, it is considered fast food! If you don't agree, then it's Chick-fil-a.

Well, that's all for now! Bye! Vote, Comment, Share, and Don't forget The Chamber of Secrets has been opened!
