PERCY'S POV

Mom said this place would 'sparkle'. This place looks like chocolate. All brown. This place couldn't sparkle if Aphrodite tried.

"Honey, come on. This will be a good thing." Mom tries and fails to persuade me.

My 6 foot frame is crammed into the back seat of Paul's Prius, with my one year old sister, Lili.

"Mhm, and the sky is pink." I mumble.

"Actually, Percy, at some points of day, the sky is a pink color." Paul smirks in the rear mirror at me.

"Like I know that!" I say throwing my hands in the air for a dramatic effect.

Lili giggles.

"I may be a English teacher but I do some science here and there." Paul says.

"Here we are!" Mom squeals excitedly.

The house is plain. Good word to describe it, boring.

The white shingles are streaked with brown and the black roof is falling off.

When you move to town called Forks, don't expect the best.

Mom hurriedly gets out of the car. Either she actually likes this place or she has a leg cramp. Most likely the first.

I sluggishly get out of the car. Paul pats my shoulder with a look that says, love it or leave.

I sigh and close my eyes, imagining Annabeth. Her blonde hair shakes as she laughs and her grey eyes brighten. 2 months until I see that face. 2 months until I kiss those lips.

Torture.

Mom comes up to me, Lili on her hip. "Percy, I enrolled you in Forks high school. You start tomorrow."

Mom gives me a look of understanding.

"Great." I mutter.

Paul has opened the door. I carefully step in the house first, hand on Riptide. There could be a monster in here.

The area is small and smells awful. Like grandmothers and mothballs.

Mom smile widens as she enters the house.

"This is our home. We need some relaxation in our crazy lives." Mom directs the last part to me.

Paul's phone rings and he's quick to answer it.

"Hi, yes this is. Hmm...really.....okay......thank you" he hangs up a defeated look on is aging face.

"The movers won't be here until tuesday. Apparently, some of our stuff was put into the wrong truck." he announces.

Great, just great.

Mom's mood doesn't waver a bit. "Percy, go get the bags."

I walk out the door and pop the trunk.

A low growl comes to the side of me. I pull out Riptide and almost uncap it until I see what it is.

It's a sleek black Lamborghini.

What the hell? Who has that kind of car, here?

A very attractive pale man with golden eyes gets out of the drivers seat. A very attractive pale woman with golden eyes gets out of the passenger seat. The back doors open and a cute girl 15ish gets out, along with a man with black hair and no shirt.

New neighbors, yay.

I roll my eyes and grab 3 bags. I head back to the house and dump them on the floor.
