Annabeth Chase walked the school grounds like everyday. Nothing usually happened, she just took mortal classes, tried to read the English and hung out with the only other Demi-gods at school.
But today was different. It started with her driving Piper to their school after their Slumber party. When she arrived on campus, her peers begun to look at her with huge eyes.
They walked down the halls together, still receiving odd looks, looks of awe. Almost breathless looks.
Kids she'd never even talked to, were here gathering in circles obviously talking about the two of them, wide-mouthed and all.
Piper gave Annabeth a confusing glance. Piper, of course always looked gorgeous. Even after the night before (which consulted of guacamole masks and awful hairdos) she still looked amazing. No matter how much she tried, she was her mother's daughter.
Annabeth never cared about her appearance, she held her self-worth in her wisdom - something that wouldn't fade. She hardly dressed up, and she never wore make-up. Percy seemed to love her anyway, that was enough.
But yes, the stares continued. What was wrong with these people? Had she not attended every other day?
She finally came to the conclusion that the people were staring because of her hair. She hadn't done anything to it since pipes put it in a ridiculous bun. That was it, she was sure; then she looked down.
Her feet were covered in a pair beautiful flats- flats she didn't own. And it got worse - She was wearing a perfect spring dress she could never afford let alone actually wear. and the whole outfit was topped by the right about of jewlery. She admitted, she did look great - but this was not okay!
"Piper! OH MY GODS! LOOK!" Annabeth screamed. Piper grabbed her knife, "WHAT!?" Annabeth motioned to her outfit. "Ill kill your mother!" When Annabeth realized that indeed, Aphrodite had "blessed" them, she only shared anger with her best friend. The two of them sprinted to the bathroom.
"It won't come off!" "I told you!" "but maybe if we cry?" "wont work"
Annabeth was out of options when her flawless makeup bounced back into perfection everytime she rubbed it. She would have to go and face the day.
"They might see us", Piper groaned. Annabeth knew who she was talking about : Jason. and she felt the same about Percy
Nobody, including their boyfriends could see them, not like this, it was unnatural.
Annabeth took one last look in the mirror, they were staring at my beauty, she thought. And she was, beautiful. her grey eyes sparkled refusing to be puffy, and the whole outfit wasn't right. She wanted her jeans, She didn't want others to respect her due to her face.
"Well lets go see the boys" Piper said. Admist it all, Annabeth couldn't help but giggle at Piper's little nickname for the two half-bloods , the boys.
They were standing at the end of the hall talking, waiting for them, probably expecting them to look like kronos. (Thier Sleepovers never ended fortunately for thier faces or hair) Boy, were they wrong.
Annabeth and Piper walked to them and just like the other students they just stared with amazement.
"Annabeth... what happened to you?" Percy said. Jason grabbed Piper's bag and just stared at her dumbfounded. Percy mimicked Jason's face.
"Oh settle down, just a little visit from everyone's favorite Olympian." Annabeth said, "And close your mouth, both of you. you'll catch flies"
~ not really percabeth but still ; worth writing. I got this idea when some kids were staring at me at school, except it was after swim practice, and I really did have Kronos-hair.
I just love the relationships between percabeth and jasper.
