Percy's New Life

The New School

One month later
Percy POV
I was on my way to my new school Mckenly High School, it was a pretty big school, at least 1,000 students. I was actually excited to go to school for once. I got there a couple of minutes later, I had to walk because I'm saving up for a car. I walked to my first period, which was Biology "oh you must be our new student, I'm Mrs. Barrington" said the teacher, she was at least fifty with light blonde curly hair "Uh yeah, so where do I sit?" I asked "oh I have to introduce you to the class" she said cheerfully, I groaned and put my hands in my pocket "class I'd like to introduce you to our new student Percy Jackson" she said "looks like a fag" said some kid from the back loudly, which caused a bunch of kids to laugh "Blake that's a write up, come up here" said Mrs. Barrington, Blake sighed and walked to the front of the class, he was obviously a popular kid, he was at least 5'10, blonde hair, he had a football jacket on, baggy jeans, and red Nike's. Mrs. Barrington gave him the write up and sent him back to his seat "sorry about that, so where are you from?" she asked "Manhattan" I answered "oh how is it there?" she asked "crowded" I said "ok, well go ahead and sit where you want" she said, I looked around and saw a seat in the middle of class and sat there

After first period
3rd person POV
After first period ended Percy exited his class and was about to walk to his next class until he saw Blake and a few other kids surrounding a girl "leave me alone" she said quietly "or what? You gonna go home and kill yourself?" he said harshly "HEY" Percy yelled as he pushed himself through the crowd "leave her alone Blake" Percy said angrily "what if I don't?" Blake asked "I'll kick your ass in front of everyone" Percy threatened "oh really? I'd like to see you try" he said before Percy got in a fighting stance "oh, we're really gonna do this? Ok" Blake said as he raised his fist. Percy and Blake circled each other before Blake threw the first punch, Percy's instincts kicked in and he caught Blake's fist "you shouldn't have done that" Percy said as he twisted Blake's hand and he groaned in pain, Percy then forced Blake's fist behind his back and held him in front of the girl "now say you're sorry" Percy said "no way you damn emo fag" Blake said, Percy then put more pressure on Blake's arm "ow ow ok, I'm sorry" Blake said sounding defeated "good, now go" Percy said as he shoved Blake into the crowd "this isn't over Jackson" Blake said as he walked off

Percy POV
"I hate bullies" I thought as I watched Blake walk away and the crowd dispersed. I looked to my right and saw the girl they were picking on "hey are you ok?" I asked, I got my first look at her, she had spiky black hair that was pushed to the side, she had a small piercing in her eyebrow and had her ears pierced, her eyes were bright blue and she had a smokey eye (you know how girls put black makeup all around their eyes, google it) she had on black skinny jeans that were ripped at the knees, she was wearing a white T-shirt that said "Be Yourself" and a black winter coat, suddenly I was filled with a weird feeling, something I couldn't explain, she then looked down nervously "y-yeah, thanks" she said before walking away, even if she hadn't have walked away I wouldn't have been able to respond "what's happening to me?" I thought "I know that look" I heard a guy say, I turned and saw a teacher wearing a yellow sweater vest and Khakis "what?" I asked "that look, that's the look of a man who's in love" he said while smiling "wh-what are you talking about?" I asked "you're in love kid" he said, I didn't even respond, I just ignored him and walked to my next class "I can't be in love, not again"
