Percy
The next day, after the occasional punches, Percy limped to the bathroom, with his arm no longer bleeding but his ankle now possibly swollen. Percy groaned softly washing his dirt covered face and sometimes glancing at the boy with red paint. His bangs looked like they grew but that's impossible because it was only one day. Percy grabbed some water and sipped it slowly. Water always made him feel energized, it was almost as if he could breath under water. Percy nodded to himself as if agreeing he'd go to the pool at lunch. Even with a swollen foot he was going to swim. Nothing stopped him anyway. In history, Percy didn't have to wear his glasses since they were still broken, so he sat in the back with his contacts. He always sat a few seats away from Di Angelo, he didn't want to look like a stalker.
As lunch rolled in, Percy could barley walk since Coach Hedge just HAD to make them run 3 miles. Even Di Angelo had to do it. Percy didn't even remember changing into his swim trunks, everything was like a blur. And before he knew it, he was in the pool, feeling energized and ready to kick some ass! He did a couple laps before he heard someone shout, "Hey!" He stopped, wiped his face, and looked at whoever called out to him. It was no other than Jason Grace. Percy's face light up with a smile and waved. "Hey Grace" They weren't friends, but EVERYONE was nice to Jason. Even Percy couldn't help it. He just had that EFFECT on people. With electric blue eyes, perfect blond hair, and even a tan that Percy couldn't get. "I didn't know you swam" Jason stated laughing. Percy blushed a bit at his laugh, obviously his school girl crush isn't over. "Yeah, I enjoy it a lot. Swim every chance I get" he laughed and Jason laughed too. "I can see that" Jason walked over to the side of the pool and asked Percy, "Why don't you join the swim team?" If Percy were a girl he would've died on the spot. But he was a guy, and kept all his giddy girl side away. "Well, I don't think I'm as fast as you Jason." Percy shrugged and Jason rolled his eyes playfully. "What's your time?" He asked Percy and Percy looked at the clock. "1:07 for 4 laps." Percy counted and Jason laughed. "Yeah right. I was watching you do only 5 laps in 43 seconds." Jason said amazed. Percy blushed again and went under water to compose himself. He might had taken a bit too long because Jason dove in after him, in trunks for that matter. The blond shook Percy making him open his eyes confused only to see Jason roll his eyes annoyed. They went for air, Jason gasping and Percy staring at him confused. "How long was I down there?" He asked and Jason coughed "5 minutes.. wait no 6" he coughed and Percy laughed. "Where do you keep all that air?" Jason asked laughing a bit. Percy shrugged and sat at the edge of the pool. Jason dried himself off and offered Percy a towel. "No thanks man. I like damped hair." Jason just rolled his eyes walking off to the locker room leaving Percy to stare at that fine ass.... 'No PERCY! no!' Percy scowled at himself, 'he's straight!' But that didn't stop him from blushing.
"So, Percy here is joining the team?" asked Frank Zhang. He was a Canadian transfer well built and had a deep voice. But he was a total sweet heart to his girlfriend Hazel. Giving her stuffed animals for her birthday or valentines day. "Yeah, he's the best I've ever seen!" Jason boosted making Percy try to beat down a blush. "Prove it. Beat me in 10 laps" stated a girl. She was also bulky like Frank but not as nice. "Now Clariesse are you sure that's a good idea?" asked a girl behind her. "Yeah. Beat me and I'll let you swim." she boosted. "Well, there's no point in arguing with you is there?" Jason laughed making Clariesse scowl. "Sure" Percy nodded holding a thumbs up. "I'll do it." This made Clariesse snicker and she nodded. "You got spunk. I like that."

As Percy completed the last lap, Clariesse was about 2 laps behind, he stood up and waited for her to finish. "Nice swimming." he smiled and she lifted her goggles staring at him confused. "What no boosting?" Percy rose a brow and he smiled holding out his hand. "No. No boosting." he laughed and she rolled her eyes smiling. "Someone get this kid some official swim trunks" From a distance of the pool, Percy caught a shadow moving in the corner. He caught a glimpse of black and muddy foot prints on the ground. He rose a brow and waved them all good bye until's tomorrow's practice. He changed quickly and didn't even notice his broken glasses were missing. He slipped on his contacts and ran out looking for the person he could've sworn he saw.
"Where are you Di Angelo?"
A/N: Holy Hera! What now?! Di Angelo what are you doing? Percy stop staring at Jason's fine ass and go find your man! Or boy with red paint... Just go!
Chapter question: Do you think Jason likes Percy or nah?
