Our Story: A Percy Jackson (Discontinued)

5. Young Love Blossoms

-Age Ten (Fourth Grade)

Percy and Piper walked down the hall together on their way to their next class. Piper couldn't help but notice that everyone they passed began to whisper. Piper looked at her clothes to make sure nothing was inside out or backwards. She was fine; her burgundy and navy blue uniform was all in order. She was forced to wear a skirt and she couldn't stand the uniform or the school, but her dad was having her and Percy attend it for some reason. She looked up at Percy. his uniform was fine too, with his navy blue pants and burgundy collar shirt. His hair was like it usually was, a mess. There was nothing out of place on him. Great, then. They're talking about me, she thought.

"Percy." Piper whispered, "I think people are talking 'bout us."

Percy shrugged at her. "So?"

"I don't like it…" Piper said starting to feel self-conscience. She wondered if her hair was bad or if she had something on her face.

Percy opened his mouth to reply, but was interrupted by two giggling girls, and two snickering boys. "Percy and Piper sitting in a tree," the boys sang. "k-i-s-s-i-n-g, first comes love, then comes marriage, then the baby in a baby carriage!" The girls started to burst out laughing now.

Piper started blushing hoping, Percy wouldn't see. "Shut up! Go away!"

"See, Percy! Your girlfriend's blushing!" one of the boys laughed, ignoring the two glares they received.

"Hey Piper! How 'bout you forget Jackson, and come with me instead?" The second boy said pursing is lips in a mock kiss. "He's not worth your time like I am."

Piper's blush only intensified, along with her glare.

"Leave her alone!" Percy yelled, his voice starting to sound angry.

"Why should I?" The first boy named Cody said putting an arm around Piper's shoulders. "According to you guys, you're not even dating."

Piper shrugged his arm off and was about to kick him, but Percy had beaten her to it.

"If you don't leave Piper alone, I swear-"

The second boy named James cut him off. "Oh! Does little Percy have a crush on Piper?" he mocked him, clearly amused.

"That's it!" Percy yelled, blushing furiously and glaring at the boys before handing Piper his backpack, "You two are gonna get it!"

The boys screamed and started running away, with Percy hot on their trail.

In the end, Percy caught up with them, and was about to start telling them off when a teacher found them. The boys claimed that Percy was going to beat them up, and the idiot teacher believed them without listening to his side of the story. Percy knew it was just because they were rich, and he wasn't, but whatever.

Although to Piper, it wasn't such a small thing. The ordeal had made her realize that she did have strong feelings for Percy. After this Piper knew for certain that she, Piper McLean, had a crush on her best friend, Perseus Jackson, and she swore, that one day she will be his girlfriend. Mark her words, one day soon.
