Annabeth's POV
I followed Percy down the steps. "So, what do you like to do Annabeth?" Percy asked me, trying to spark conversation.

"Well, I love to read, and studying is also one of my hobbies."

Percy looked down. "Oh. I have ADHD and dyslexia so I can't read that well." Percy explained.

An awkward silence fell between us. "I have ADHD and dyslexia too, but I practice a lot." I said, trying to make him talk.

He whipped his head up to look at me. "Seriously?" I nodded. He grinned at me. We walked and talked. I learned he loves the ocean and swimming, and that his Dad ran away before he was born. He learned that i'm really studious and my Mom ran away when I was really little. It felt good to make a friend so quickly. Luckily, school is starting soon. When it got dark, we exchanged phone numbers and went home. I closed the front door and made my way up to my room. I was checking the weather when I got a text from Percy.

P: Hey Annie
A: Don't call me that
P: LOL okay. I have to go to sleep, cya tomorrow at school 😎
A: Goodnight

  I shut my phone off and got ready for bed. Tomorrow is the first day of school. I better keep up with my studies. Will people there be nice? Probably not everyone, every school has at least one bully. I better prepare myself to face them. Especially when they call me a dumb blonde.
