Percy's POV.

Waking in a small white room, not knowing where you are is scary. I looked around me to find cords hang up all around me. I groaned in pain as I lifted my head up. I was in the hospital.

I reached over to push the red button to call a nurse, but before I could a doctor came into the room. I sat all the way up forgetting about the pain.

"What happened? What am I doing here?" I asked. The doctor walked to the edge of my bed.

"I here to inform you that you were just in a motorcycle accident and had a concussion. You had been out for about two hours. We called your mom and she's in the waiting room. We also called your girlfriend to come, but I guess she didn't come." The doctor informed me.

The talent show, of course. I can't believe she didn't visit me just so she wouldn't miss her precious show. I can't wait until I face her. I'm actually deeply hurt by her actions.

"When can I leave?" I asked. I was anxious to leave this place. It smelled bad in here.

"In about a hour." He said. I nodded and laid back down. "Do you want your mom in here now?" I nodded. The doctor walked out the room and left me to myself. I wanted to cry for whatever reason. I guess I was just very tired.

Annabeth Chase, wait until I find you.

Annabeth's POV.

As I was waiting for my turn next I couldn't help but think of Percy. I wonder if he was mad at me. I mean wouldn't he want me to go on and do what I was working on for the past month. I started to yank some of my hair in nervousness. I don't know why I do it, but I just do.

People used to say that I would have a little problem with miss behaving and when I was younger, I used to hurt myself when I didn't get what I wanted. I stopped now so I don't know what's wrong now.

I sighed and tried to clear my thoughts because I was going to go up. I felt a tap on my shoulder and I turned around to face Thalia.

"Good luck." She said.

"Oh yeah, um thanks. That means a lot for you to say that." I told her. She nodded.

"Oh and did you here about Percy?" She asked. I immediately shook my head.

"No I haven't heard, and I don't know where he is. Do you?" " I answered. She raised an eyebrow, but dismissed my behavior.

"He was in a motorcycle accident. The doctor said he was pretty banged up, but he will be okay. I know it. He's a fighter. Always has been and always will be." She said. I pretended to be shocked.

"Oh I hope so. I will have to visit him after the talent show. Ugh, I really wish he was here today. He really wanted to be here." I said trying to sound dejected.

"Next up...Annabeth Chase!" The music teacher yelled.

"Break a leg." Thalia said. That's when I felt that I was going to vomit every where. The guilt was eating me alive. This made me feel really bad and I didn't like it all. Not one bit.

I walked up on the stage slowly trying to waste every second I had. As I made it on the stage I was looking at a lot of faces. I cleared my throat as the music started to play. I opened my mouth , but nothing came out. I could hear people's laughter filling the air as I try to make sound come out of my mouth.

Tears started to run down my eyes. I wanted to go home now.

"I can't do this." I said. I quickly covered my mouth as vomit try to come out.

"She's gonna blow!" A kid yelled out. I quickly ran off the stage and made my way to the girls bathroom. I let it all out in the stall. I wanted to cry more, but there was nothing to come out of my eyes. I wiped my eyes and stood up. I felt like my life was over. I was so embarrassed to be seen.

I walked over to the sink and splashed water on my face to cool down. I walked out of the bathroom and down the hallway. I walked home feeling down. I didn't want to think about anything at the moment.

When I got home I went straight to my room and laid face down on my bed. I laid there for about a minutes when I started to get angry at myself.

Ugh, why did I do that. I couldn't even hold in my chunks until after the show. I started to scream into my pillow and yank out some of my hair.

Maybe my life is really ruined.
