Nico's POV

Apparently, Annabeth has arrived. You can tell because Percy is acting a little different. And not in a good way. He has been pretty moody lately.

I found out why: Annabeth had been bugging him about the ball and the fact that she still wants to be with him and stuff. Percy is really annoyed with it.

Jason has seemed to forget about the mission completely. It's all about Piper Piper Piper. I don't really care, but with Jason Percy Annabeth and Piper all preoccupied, it was me and Thalia left, and that is not a good mix.

I expressed my thoughts to Percy(yes I actually express thoughts don't be so shocked. Percy is like a brother to me. But don't you dare tell him)

The ball was a few days away and as I was sitting in the common room one day, I heard Percy actually stand up to annabeth.

"Annabeth, stop trying to get back together with me, and please stop bugging me about the dance thing. I am going with Thalia and that's final. He then got up and walked to our room.

Annabeth stood there with her jaw nearly touching the ground, or so it seemed. She wasn't the only one. Thalia and I were shocked. We had both seen the whole thing, and needless to say we were impressed.

We decided to leave Percy alone though. To leave him to his thoughts. Later Percy came down and he looked remorseful.

I stood up quickly ." Percy what are you doing?"

He glanced at me. "I was really rude to Annabeth and I was going to apologize. Do you know where she is?"

I looked at him shocked again. But Thalia was the first to speak.

"You don't need to apologize to her. You finally stood up for yourself and I'm proud of you. I won't let you apologize because then she will think that she still has control over you. I won't let her take advantage of your being nice for her own benefit again. You deserve better."

She said all of his in one breath.I must admit i was impressed. Percy was a little surprised too. Thalia has never 'chosen' percy over Annabeth before, and now she was conplaining on how she treated Percy.., weird.

Thalia's POV

The next day, we were bored out of our minds until the afternoon. None of us had classes in the afternoon. All of them were in the morning.

We sat in the common room for a while, the. Our ADHD kicked in. "IM BORED WE SHOULD TRAIN OR SOMETHING!" I whined.

They were all shocked that I had actually complained about something.

Jason was the first to speak. "We could train in the forest." He suggested.

Percy butted in. "Or we could go swimming."

Nico joined in the debate. "We could IM camp."

"Or we could go swimming." Came from Percy again.

"Or we could visit the owelry." Annabeth suggested.

"Or we could go swimming.' Pery repeated.

"Or we could talk to the headmistress more about the wizard world." Piper put in her opinion .

"Or we could go swimming.' Ill give you one guess on who that was.

Jason sighed, "but we need training percy. We haven't trained in weeks."

"Yeah well I haven't gone for a swim in weeks."

"We'll we all need to stay in shape."

"You can exercise while swimming."

"Or not"

"I want to go swimming."

"Well I dont."

"Well I do."

"Well I dont."

"WELL I DO!"

"WELL I DON'T !"

"WELL I --"

"SHUT UP!" I hollered. Percy. You and Nico can go swimming and he rest of us will train without you."

"Noooooooooooo!!!! You can't train without me!" Percy complained.

"What are you? Three?" I inquired.

He looked offended. "I'm at least four and a half!"

"Then train with us and we'll go swimming next time." I reasoned.

"Fine!" He exclaimed, heading out of the common room. He beat us outside. We had been laughing at him because he didnt have his armor. But when we got outside, he did.

"Where did you get your armor?" I asked

He smirked."I put it behing Hagrid's hut. Duh!!"

I rolled my eyes and threw my hunting knife, and training had begun
