Percy's POV

Annabeth and I went into the social studies classroom. I sat down and patted the seat next to me. Annabeth sat and immediately got out her pens and pencils. I stared at all of her pencils and leaned over and whispered "Hey, can I borrow a pencil?" Annabeth smiled at me and handed me one. I was chatting with Annabeth when Rachel, Reyna, and their 'friend', Elizabeth.

Rachel gave me a peck on the cheek and said "Heeeey Perce!"

I swatted her face and said, "Get out of here Rachel..." The teacher came in, thank the gods, and rang a small bell signaling for the kids to sit down.

"Welcome to Goode High School everyone! My name is Mrs.Lumber. Instead of doing the usual boring busywork that we usually do, lets play a meet and greet game!" Annabeth rolled her eyes and I groaned. I should have rolled my eyes instead, Mrs.Lumber was glaring at me already. Did her eyes turn red or was I hallucinating? "Okay class, all you have to do is say your name and one thing about you. Who wants to go first." Annabeth's eager hand shot up in the air. "Okay young lady." Mrs.Lumber said.

Annabeth gave Mrs.Lumber a smile and said "Hi, I'm Annabeth Chase, and I like to read and write."

Mrs. Lumber smiled and turned to me. "Young man, it's your turn."

I groaned inwardly. "Umm... My name is Percy Jackson and uh I guess I like to swim...?"

Mrs.Lumber pursed her lips and said "Good, Young Man, you next." She said to the unlucky boy sitting close to us.

When class was finally over, I walked alongside Annabeth and said, "Look, I'm really sorry about Rachel, I seriously don't like her at all. I am so tired of her." Annabeth nodded silently, and I bit my lip, worried. If I really am falling for her, Rachel isn't improving my chances of dating her. But that's ridiculous, she wouldn't fall for me. I'm just.... Me.

Annabeths POV

Finally Social Studies was over. It was a killer, one more second and I swear I was going to murder someone. Saved by the bell. It was the most stupidest class period I have ever been forced to sit through. Percy said something about Rachel, and how she was annoying him and stuff, but I wasn't listening. I was thinking about him. Am I really falling in love with him? Something about those sea-green eyes and his laugh, his smile, his kindness, everything about him just makes me want to put my arms around him. But I can't really be falling for him, I barely know him... Maybe when I'm ready, I'll think about my feelings, I thought, and pushed Percy out of my mind.
