Demigods Revealed

Mark Andres

There she was, the epitome of beauty; she was magnificence and elegance in the form of a human being. She had the face of an angel; her eyes were a shocking shade of grey and they seemed to change reflecting her mood.

Her eyes were big and round and seemed to calculate your every single move of yours. Initially I thought she was just a blonde bimbo, until I saw her eyes which totally cleared all the doubts I had earlier about her being a slut and a dumb blonde.

She had the rosiest pink lips ever known to man. She was a natural beauty and did not need any makeup to make her look pretty. Who was this beautiful siren who had captured my heart, you might ask? Well her name was Annabeth Perfect Chase.

She was so unlike those slutty girls who exposed more of their body than necessary and caked on enough makeup to last a lifetime, on their faces.

Im a nerd, but I still have friends. including the lovely Annabeth.

Annabeth and I had been friends since she came to Baycove Academy 2 years ago. I have always had a crush on Annabeth, but ever since she went AWOL for a whole year, I realised my feelings were more than just a silly crush. Our friends, Lola, Nia, Josh and Mona keep encouraging me to ask her out before its too late.

Ive decided today is the day I make Annabeth Chase my girl.

I got a message from Annabeth telling me to meet her outside. I guess she wants to confess her eternal, undying love for me.

I met up with the gang and I realise she did not mean she wanted to see me alone but all of us together.

When I saw her, she was standing beside a very hot guy who had mesmerizing sea green eyes and messy jet-black hair. I can tell even from a distance that he is a player who wants to take advantage of her.

I step closer to her to tell that asshole to get the hell away from her.

Get away from my girlfriend, you asshole! Step away right now! I yelled at him in my fit of rage.

Annabeth walked towards me with her usually calm eyes now a swirling void of rage.

I kissed her full on her lips and smirked in the direction of the boy.

The next thing I know, Im lying on the floor wheezing and panting for air.

How could you do this Mark, I considered you a friend. But you turned out to be a f***ing backstabber! I have a boyfriend named Percy, and I remember telling you this! shrieked Annabeth.

Well, where is he, huh? All I see is you being a deceitful filthy scumbag who is just being a bitch who cheats on her boyfriend! I retorted.

I know I was being rude, but she just tore my heart out and stomped on it. I deserve to make her feel my pain, to be hurt and to make her cry. I know Ill end up regretting this tomorrow, but I just cant help myself.

Mark, meet Percy she growled and thats when I was thankful looks couldnt kill, because if they could Id be six feet under. The glares I got from the entire school population and my friends were enough to send me running home.

The next day, I was ignored by everybody, including my exfriends. Even the nerds, who happened to be below me on the social ladder of popularity, ignored me. I was bullied for the rest of the year until I graduated, and I regretted ever being rude and horrible to my one and only true love, Annabeth Chase. Even my girlfriend, Aimee, dumped me in front of the whole school at a party that I was invited to. I guess I should have been surprised I even got invited to Abbys party, after all I was the most unpopular.
