The picture is what Annabeth Percy wear to school.

Lucy's POV (Percy's friend)

Percy finally decided to come back to school.
I didn't find out in some normal way, like him calling. No, I found out when he came walking down the hallway in blue, green, and white plaid swim trunks, and a maroon 3/4 sleeve Abercrombie & Fitch shirt, gray Vans, and Ray-Bans on his head.
But that's not the thing that surprised me the most, the thing that surprised me the most was the girl that he had his arm slung around.
The girl was wearing jean shorts with a lace trim, a white blouse, a light pink blazer, and gold gladiator sandals. She had honey blonde hair in a ponytail, with a black braided headband. Her head was rested on his shoulder because she was about a foot shorter than him.
They walked up to my locker, because he was right next to mine, and apparently she is too.
"Lucy!" Percy shouted as he took his arm away from the girl, and engulfed (literally engulf me the dude is about 6'1"and 210 lbs. of pure muscle, where I'm about 5'3" and about 110) me in a hug, nearly crushing my bones.
"Lucy this is my fi- girlfriend Annabeth." He said after he let me go. I waved trying to catch my breath. Annabeth laughed, "So Lucy what do you have first?" "English with Paul and everyone else has math with Carlson."
Percy smiled and made his way to Paul's classroom. Paul waved to Percy, Annabeth, and me.
Classes went fast mostly because it was the first day of school but pretty much because Percy was back, and he makes everything fun. Soon it was lunch, and we all sat at our normal table.
Everyone else came up and when they saw Percy they almost had heart attacks.
"PERCY!!!" They all shouted in unison. The cafeteria went silent and turned toward our table.
"Hey guys, how have you been," Percy asked innocently. "That's all you say? 'How've you been'. You were gone for months and scared us shitless. You have some serious explaining to do Mister."
Percy laughed in reply, and got up and engulfed all five of them in a bear hug. "EVERYONE GO BACK TO YOUR KNITTING THERE'S NOTHING TO SEE HERE!" He shouted, and everyone went back to their own conversations.
"I'm sorry that I was kidnapped, but it wasn't my fault." He let go of them and sat back down next to Annabeth.
"Kidnapped, no, no you- no that's not possible," Lauren mumbled to herself.
"Come over to my apartment, and I'll explain, well I'll explain what I can." Percy consoled her with a hug. "Who's the girl?" Sean asked. "This is Annabeth my f- girlfriend." Why does he keep starting with a different word?

After school, we went to Percy's apartment.
"So I really want to tell you everything, but I can't so I will tell most of what happened." Percy started.
He was sitting in his favorite recliner, with Annabeth on his lap. Lauren and Sean were on the love seat. Connor, Adam, and Josh were on the couch, and I was on the floor in between Connor's legs.
"So it all started when my aunt kidnapped me. I was in a coma for about eight months, and when I woke up I had amnesia. I went to San Fransisco for some reason, then Alaska. After that, I met up with some other people, and we went to Rome," he and Annabeth shuddered when he said 'Rome'. "Then Greece, and then came back to Long Island." Annabeth buried her head in his neck.
He started to rub her back and kissed her head.
"That doesn't explain anything. Is she crying? Why would she be crying? That story was terrible." Lauren exclaimed. Percy glared at her, picked Annabeth up, and brought her upstairs.
A little while later he came back without Annabeth. "Why isn't Annabeth with you?" Connor asked. "Because she is sleeping." "Why is she sleeping?" "Have you ever had an experience so traumatic that if you even think about it you get a flashback? And the flashback is about what happened, so you almost pass out, but you can't because if you do you think that the thing that you are seeing with kill you. Because that drains you." "Why didn't you get a flashback?" "Because I get nightmares where I wake up screaming."
