PJO/HOO Fanfiction- Behind Closed Doors

Chap 51

Annabeth's pov:

I woke up to the sound of banging and laughing and screaming. Annoyed, I trudged over to the girls with my duvet still wrapped around my body.

"What are you guys doing?" I asked them, then coughed due to my voice and just waking up.

"We're making pancakes." Thalia told me.

I raised my eyebrow. "At this time?"

Hazel laughed. "Annabeth we have school today, you know that right?"

I cursed under my breath. School. I had forgotten that was a thing. "Yeah, just wanted to sleep a bit."

Piper nodded, still smiling. "Yeah sure, I believe ya."

"You definitely didn't forget about it." Rachel piped up, trying not to laugh.

I rushed out of the room. "Save me some!" I called out. Going into Piper's room, I sighed. Everything used to be so bad, but then it turned good, but then it turned back to bad. I could practically hear Mufasa from The Lion King whispering  'it's the circle of life." I chuckled to myself. Yeah, me and the girls have got to stop having Disney marathons.

I quickly changed into my outfit, loosely tying my hair into a ponytail. As you could tell, I didn't care about my appearance. I jogged back into the kitchen, ready to eat the pancakes.

Instead, I was met with a gloopy mess on the ceiling and on the floor, with three angry girls crossing their arms.

"Where's the food?" I asked, a hand over my mouth to stop from smiling.

Piper scowled. "Thalia here decided to-"

"It wouldn't have happened if Rachel didn't-"

"No no no, it was Piper and Thalia."

I turned towards Hazel, nodding towards them as if saying how do we keep up with them? Hazel shrugged, clearly not fazed by this. They continued to shout, until I decided to stop this mess.

"We literally have 10 minutes to go before school starts. I don't care about pancakes, let's just leave." My stomach was clearly annoyed by this. You don't care about pancakes, you monster!

I walked over to Piper's car, holding her key. "C'mon, I don't want to be late."

Piper, Rachel and Thalia both shrugged it off and walked to the car, Hazel right behind them. "This is not over," Thalia said.

I turned back towards her. "I'm going to pretend I didn't hear that." Thalia stuck her tongue at me, and I raised my eyebrow at her. Immature, huh?

. . .

"Remind me why we're still here?" Percy whispered to me in English.

I shushed him. "Percy, we need to learn, that's a good enough reason."

Percy sighed, "excuses, escuses."

I shrugged him off. "Look, everyone else is learning."

Percy leaned back on his chair. "No, they're not, they're trying not to fall asleep," he pointed at the back. "Look at Leo, he's already dozed off!"

I glared at him. "You can sleep, but I'm actually going to listen, I want to pass."

Percy smiled at me. "Just what I wanted to hear." He leaned back onto his table and fell asleep, not even bothering to see if the teacher would catch him out.
