Percy's PointOfView

Alexandra Mase, get ready to be pranked.

Strangely, said girl had been trying to get closer to me.. And don't think it was simple not telling her to back off.

Hey, Percy, can you buy me that milkshake? Like hell I would.

Percy! You'd look great with snake bites! I don't care.

Percy, blah blah blah blah blah blah.

"Can I just kill her now?" I asked Jason one time.

"Dude... As much as I know you would like to, no." He replied.

"Urgh..." I grunted as I saw her walking to me. HER. H-E-R.

"Hello Riker!" She said in her abnormally high tone, "And Jason."

"Hello Alexandra. Please do call me Percy."

"But--!"

"No."

"Geez, Perce. Chill. I'm just teasing you--."

"Don't."

She let out a frustrated sigh but kept her smile wide. She looked at me with those annoying brown eyes, and turned to Jason.

"Can you leave us for a sec?" she asked.

"Up to Perce, really." Jason responded.

"No, please. F no." I told Jason.

"Then no. I won't." Jason said to Alexandra.

You know what? Her name is too long. Let's call her Alex.

Okay, classes just ended and here she comes.

Cough. Cough. Voice check. Voice check. Okay.

"Hey, Alex, love." I called out.

FYI, Annabeth agreed to this plan. In fact, she and Piper were the ones who came up with my lines.

She and everyone who heard me looked startled.

Alex regained her composture and walked to me. "Yeah?" she replied, her eyelids fluttering.

"I was wondering," I said. "if that offer still stands. You know, buying you a drink."

"Of course it does, silly. Come on!" she answered.

"Yes ma'am." I sneakily added.

She dragged me to Mr. Smoothies (If you get the reference, last chapter goes to you.) and quickly lined us up.

"I'll have that strawberry banana smoothie." she said.

"Alright." I ordered hers and mine as well, which is a simple blueberry smoothie with vanilla cream.

After we got our orders, we exited the shack and walked to the park.

Not actually a park, more like a circle of trees and a swing set.

Anyway, we settled down on the old and rusty swing set and talked.

"Any reason at all to why you suddenly asked me out?"

"Annabeth broke up with me."

Not quite. Annabeth actually helped me with this plan of mine.

"Oh, you poor thing." she said, hugging me like I was a lost puppy.

"Yeah... Thanks."

"So does this mean you're single?" she asked enthusiastically.

Somehow knew she would ask that.

"Umm, I guess." I chuckled innocently.

"Great! Are you gay?"

"What? No!" I replied, surprised by her question.

"Perfect."

She leaned in to me very slowly. She closed her eyes.

I gripped her chin.

Just a couple more centimeters and...

"It's a prank." I whispered, completely satisfied with her expression and completely okay with the red slap mark on my left cheek.

So, how was it? Last chapter is coming on next, right here on Percy Jackson: Bad boy in High school.

BTW, I made myself a new Twitter account.
