People Meet Percabeth

Taylor Dare

I was in my room, trying not to cry. I couldn't fall in love! Maybe I could join the Hunters! Yeah! No. I think I love him too much. Why is love complicated?!

The room next to me was Kelly's room. She tried to ask Percy out, but failed. I wish I was there for her. Even if she was little mean, I still love her.

I heard a knock on my door. I found Rachael, Annabeth, Sarah, and Gwen standing at the doorway."If you want Kelly, she's next to me on the left."

Annabeth shook her head."No. We want to talk to you. Can we come in?"

I nodded. I felt this was going to happen. I sat on my bed, Annabeth sitting next to me, like Rachael. Sarah sat on the beanbag and Gwen stole a pillow and sat on it on the floor.

Annabeth looked at me with her gray eyes."Taylor, we want to help you. And say sorry. We didn't mean to offend you in any way."

"No, no. It's fine. You didn't offend me. It's just..."

Sarah looked at me with her comforting brown eyes."Just what? If you want to tell."

I looked at Rachael."It's your decision. But you should tell them," was all she said.

I sighed."Back at my old school, I dated this boy named Damien Waters. I met him in sophomore year. We dated in that year and until junior year. That's when I found out he cheated on me with the school, excuse this word, slut. They were making out in the hallways. I was so hurt. I'm afraid that if I date again, I'll just be hurt."

Annabeth, Sarah, and Gwen pulled me into a hug. Rachael joined. We pulled apart, Gwen said,"I'm sorry that happened! We're always here for you!"

The next day surprised me. Kelly was in casual clothes! And it wasn't dare! She looked happy and proud of herself!

I hugged her."I'm so proud! I'm sorry about Percy."

Surprisingly, she shrugged."I deserved it. Oh, excuse me." She went over to Percy and Annabeth.

I smiled. I felt a tap and I turned around. I saw Hadrian.

"Hey Taylor."

I blushed. Why do I keep doing that?! "H-hi Hadrian."

He awkwardly scratched the back of his neck."Look. You don't have to say yes, but would you like to go out with me."

I blushed even harder."Um, like a d-date?"

He blushed too."Um, maybe?"

I looked at Rachael and Tyler. They smiled and nodded at me encouragement. Jenny gave me a scary look like, 'If you don't say yes, you'll life will be over!'

I looked back at Hadrian."Yes. I'll go out with you. What time and where are we going?"

He smiled."8 and that's a surprise."

Rachael, Tyler, Jenny, Kelly, and all my friends were in my room. Like Kelly, Gwen and Jenny were freaking out.

"AHHH! HE ASKED YOU OUT!!! YAY!," those 3 screamed. Annabeth rolled her eyes.

Kelly stopped at started searching in my closet."Um Kelly. What are you doing?," I asked.
