Percy sighed as he stood leaning against the counter with his cheek in the palm of his right hand. It was an hour before closing time. He hated working at the gas station. No one really came around, but if anyone did, they would be rude.
He looked up with tired eyes as the ding came from the door. There were two people from his history class. Blonde with grey eyes was Annabeth Chase. The other, curly brunett with matching warm eyes was Leo Valdez. There was a rumor of them dating, sense they always hang out together. But Percy knew that wasn't true. His cousin, Nico di Angelo, was dating Leo, and Annabeth's his best friend. Plus the Chase family had adopted Leo when he was five.
"Boring night tonight?" Annabeth asked as Leo went throughout the store, getting stuff to buy.
"Like you wouldn't believe." He chuckled.
"I don't know why you ever got this job Perce."
"Because I was fired from my last job, no thanks to your brother."
"HEY!" Leo yelled as he walked back with his arms full of chip and cookie bags and two coca-colas. They both laughed.
"Well if you didn't make a mess in the lobby, I would still be working at the hotel being paid good money. Not here where people blame me for the high prices on gas."
Leo huffed and dropped the stuff on the counter. Percy rung them up.
"I see you found your guy's names...Well, sorta." Percy laughed through his nose as Annabeth glared at the "Share a Coke with 'Annie'" coca-cola. It's been the company's new campaign experiment. And well Annabeth wasn't one of the names the company had. They didn't have his either. Percy wasn't a very popular name.
Annabeth handed the money to him and they both walked out with a cheery Bu-Bye.
He sighed. Well there goes my entertainment.
