Surprise, Surprise!

Wednesday: Annabeth

Here's your second update of the day!:)

~oO0Oo~

Annabeth's POV

It was after school, and I thought I was about to loose it.

Why might you ask? Well you see, Hazel brought up the topic about Prom, and pretty soon, we were talking about what we wanted to wear. Hazel and I hadn't gotten dresses yet, so Piper thought it was an oh so good idea to take us dress shopping. Yay. (note the sarcasm).

So now, me, Hazel, Piper, K.J, and Tayla were looking for dresses.

Well, technically Hazel was looking for a dress, Piper and Tayla were making me try dresses on, and K.J. looked bored out of her mind.

"What about this one?" Piper held up a green dress.

"Eh. I'm not really liking the colour."

"Okay, how about this one?" She held up a red one.

"It's pretty, but I still don't like the colour. "

"Oh my gods Annabeth! Pick one already!" She threw her hands in the air, exasperated.

K.J. looked up from the couch she was sitting on.

"Hey, Piper?

"Yeah?"

"This is a really stupid question, but why do you guys say 'oh gods' and 'for Hades sake' a lot?"

"Um" Piper turned to me. I jumped in.

"You know the camp we go to? It was based off of Greek mythology. We used a lot of words like that, because we were in a 'Greek camp', and it was a lot more fun that way. We say it so often at camp, that when we come back, we constantly use it in our everyday langage."

K.J. seemed to buy it.

"Cool."

I let out a breath and turned back to the dress rack.

"Nice save." Piper muttered. I nodded.

"How about this one?" She held up another dress.

"No."

She groaned.

~time skip to like an hour or two later~

"Ugh! Annabeth! No wonder you don't go shopping! We have literally been to every store in the mall, and you still haven't picked a dress! It's just one night! Pick. A. Dress!" K.J plopped down on a bench in front of a yogurt shop.

"Sorry. Every time I think I've found the right dress, I don't like it but the time we leave the store. It's like I'm under a spell or something. Ugh! It's so frustrating! I plopped down next to K.J.

I looked up to see Piper starring, wide eyed at a pink, sparkly shop on the other side of the wall.

"Um, K.J, you can stay here if you want. Get some yogurt. Kayla and Hazel can stay too. I think I might be able to break Annabeth's, ahem, spell. Let's go Annabeth."

She pulled me by the hand into the pink, sparkly store, and everything clicked into place. Nope. I was not going to do this. Nope nope nope nope nope. Nope.

I tried prying my hand out of hers, but she had a strong grip.

"Annabeth! Stop it!"

"No! I'm not putting on pink, fluffy dresses! Tell your mom to go away!"

"Annabeth, as much as I want to see you in something pink, just give my mom a chance. After all, she is the goddess of beauty."

I glared at her as Aphrodite walked in.
