Annabeth's POV:

When I woke up after my flashback I went to the bathroom to clean up all the girls followed me, once we were in the bathroom they crowded around me and gave me a bear hug. When they had let me go I cleaned up my face and redid my ponytail then headed off to English with all my girls around me. Once we had entered the classroom Paul was about to ask us why we were late I just gave him a look that said please don't ask he nodded in understanding and told us to take a seat, luckily for me there was a free seat right next to Percy who looked worried sick I walked over to him, sat down and whispered

"Have I ever told you that you look cute when you're worried?" He whispered back to me.

"Yes I believe you told me that after you took a poisoned knife for me in the middle of the battle for Manhattan against Kronos" I laughed quietly as Paul went on with the lesson.

"This year we are studying myths of ancient Greece like the tales of Odysseus, adventures of Hercules and so on. We'll be starting with Odysseus come and get your copy from my desk and also I have a few copies in Greek if anyone wants to give it a go" at this he winked at all of us demigods and called us up first to be sure that we got a Greek copy. As we grabbed our books from the front Paul asked us to introduce ourselves since we were new Jason started by stating his name, age, where he's form and why he moved to New York then Piper, Leo, Calypso, Frank, Hazel, Travis, Katie, Conner, Thalia did the same and I went last, just as I was about to say something the girl who kissed Percy Madison/Madi or as all of us liked to call her Queen B**ch called out from the back in a snobby voice.

"Are you gonna scream again cause I think you've done enough damage to our ears from before" There were snickers around the room I was about to say something when Thalia said it for me matching her snobby tone

"Are you gonna keep dressing like that cause I think you've done enough damage to our eyes" There was a chorus of oh shots fired! Throughout the class and Thalia and Percy fist bumped as the rest of us Demigods snickered and Madi stood there shocked a couple of minutes later Paul had settled us down and let me finish what I was going to say before Madi interrupted

"Hi I'm Annabeth I'm seventeen years old, I moved here from California, I moved to be closer to my boyfriend Percy and my job" (rebuilding Olympus) after that we all sat down at our tables and started reading the set chapters while everyone else grabbed their books as I read Percy played with the ends of my hair I tried to make him stop but he wouldn't so I gave up I had finished reading the chapters anyway so I just sat there staring into space till the bell rang I had one more class for the day and I was probably going to be my favourite because it was my architecture class I packed up all my things from my desk and walked out with the others to go to our lockers, Percy came up behind me while I was at my locker wrapped his arms around my waist, leaned in and whispered

"You ok wise girl?"

"Yea I guess..."

"What was your flash back?"

"Nothing in particular just flashes when you let go of the ledge...Bob...Damasen (AN sorry I don't know how to spell his name) and small Bob...gods Percy I feel terrible leaving them down there"

"I know I think about them all the time I miss them to" by this time I had turned around and was crying in to Percy's shoulder and Percy's voice started to crack while he talked but thankfully most of the hallways were clear I stood there hugging him for a good 10-15 minutes before I jumped and remembered I had class I gave Percy a peck on the lips grabbed his hand and started dragging him to class (his marine biology class was right next to my architecture class) I gave him another quick peck, knocked on the class room door and walked in. I apologised to my teacher and went to the only free desk which just so happened to be next to Cassidy. She looked up and saw me coming towards her table she looked like she wanted to say something but then went back to her drawing. Since it was the first day back the teacher let us draw anything, I started sketching designs for a statue of Apollo for up on Olympus I was just about finished when Cassidy said

"I'm so sorry about before in the cafeteria and for slapping Percy"

"It's not your fault, you couldn't have known that would happen"

"What did happen exactly?"

I was stumped, what was I gonna do tell her oh yea nothing happened me and Percy just fell into the heart of Greek hell and now suffer from PTSD in the form of flash backs that can be triggered at any moment by anything and horrible terrifying nightmares preventing us from getting a proper night's sleep, just as I was about to answer with some bulls*it story the bell rang I sighed internally and thought God's talk about saved by the bell.

"Sorry gotta go bye" I said while grabbing my stuff and practically ran out of the room to I met Percy just outside of his class room and we made our way to our lockers where the others were already standing waiting for us I put all my stuff back in my locker and walked out to the schools car park hand in hand with Percy.
