Annabeth POV

Today is officially the first day of school. And what a coincidence. It happens to fall on Percy's birthday. August 18.

Thalia opens the door and says to me, "You should probably get up now so you can get to school early to get your schedule and your locker."

"Okay" I say with a yawn. "I'll be out in a few minutes."

She leaves, closing the door behind her. I jump out of bed( literally. What? I'm excited to see Percy,!),and grab my phone. I open it up, and look at the temperature for today. 94°F.   
I am definitely wearing shorts.

I wander over to my closet, and find a pair of blue denim shorts ( I put my fingers to my sides to make sure they were dress code), a grey t-shirt with an owl on it, and my favorite sneakers.

I put them on, and start brushing (or at least trying to) my hair. After a while, it's all brushed.

I do not put on makeup. It makes me have an allergic reaction, and my face starts to itch.

I grab all of my stuff, and put it in my backpack. Then I go out to the kitchen, where Thalia has some pancakes on the table for me.

I say "thanks" to her, and start eating. I only ate one out of the three, because I'm not really hungry, and I don't eat that much anymore. That's why I'm so skinny. Helen starved me.

After a few minutes 'arguing' with Thalia about not eating that much, I walk out the door. The School is only about three blocks away, so I can walk.

After about ten minutes, I'm at the school.

There is a big banner out front, made out of paper. It says "WELCOME TO GOODE HIGH"

I go into the school, and get my schedule and locker number and combination.

Locker number 1358, and combination: 13/32/33.

Schedule:
1st hour: foreign language (Greek)

2nd hour: P.E

3rd hour: AP US. History

4th hour: Geometry

Lunch

5th hour: Adv. Literature

6th hour: Architecture

7th hour: Chemistry.

Well, it looks like I'll at least hopefully have Greek with Percy. That has to be the foreign language he chose. Especially since he already knows it.

I go to my locker, and put the stuff that I don't need inside.

A girl walks up to me. She couldn't have dressed more revealing. She must be a popular girl.
"Oh hey! Are you new? Cuz you totally look like new!"

"Um... Yeah." I say.

"Oh that's cool! Say, is this your locker?!"

"Um... Yeah." I say again.

"Oh that's totally like  so cool! You got the locker next to the like most hottest boy in the school! I'm Drew by the way!"

Ugh. Great. Now I have to deal with some stupid guy, that's probably gonna have girls gathered around him all the time, blocking my locker.
"Um. Okay. I  am Annabeth. Nice to meet you. But I need to get ready for class."

"Okay. That's like totally fine! I'll see ya later Girly!"

Ugh. That was a nightmare.

I look at the clock. 7: 47. I still got 13 minutes before class starts. I guess I can just  go to class and read until the Bell rings.
