A/N Don't kill me! *runs and hides*

Annabeth's POV

I lay awake in bed, worried about my nightmares. I didn't want to scare the Ravenclaws on my first night. But I was tired, so so tired. I glanced at the clock on the wall. It was midnight. I decided to pray to Morpheus, to Hecate and to Athena.

I was praying when I fell asleep and Morpheus must've been feeling merciful because I didn't suffer from nightmares. A dreamless night, what a blessing.

I woke up to a thudI sat up quickly, wide awake, only to see that a girl had dropped her books. "Sorry!" she whispered to me as she saw that I had woken up. "It's okay, Bethany." I replied, recalling her name from last night.

Bethany had waist-length light brown hair that she kept braided. She was quite fair with a splash of freckles across her nose. Her vibrant green eyes were shielded by a pair of black glasses that gave her a rather classy look. I had learned last night that she had excitement vented up inside her just waiting to burst out. She would make a very good friend.

"You might want to get ready. It's just twenty minutes 'til breakfast is over." she said softly.

Not believing her, I checked the clock. Surely enough, it read 8:40. How could I have overslept? Its okay, Annabeth, I told myself, You slept after midnight. I got off the bed and started to get ready.

~Line Break~

"Bethany, do you see Percy or Nico anywhere?" I asked her, looking atbthe Hufflepuff table first and then the Gryffindor.

"Who?" she said, looking up from her breakfast.

"The other exchange students." I explained.

"They must be on their way." she started eating again and I figured I should join her.

~After some time (not a lot)~

I looked up to see Nico enter. "Be riht back." I told Bethany, while I got up to meet him. As I got closer I saw that he was wearing Gryffindor robes. He looked quite different.

"Hey, Annabeth." he raised a hand in greeting.

"Have you seen Percy?" I asked, getting to the point.

"He must've gotten lost."

"You might be right..."

"It's a big castle, you know. I almost got lost too. Asked a ghost to point me in the right direction."

"Could you look for him?"

He rolled his eyes. "Seriously?"

"Please? I don't want him to get unto trouble on fhe first day."

He sighed and walked out of the hall.

Percy POV:

I was lost. I mean, I had slept in and the other boys had left a note. That was nice of them, actually. It said, We have gone to get breakfast. Didn't want to disturb you. Hope you're better.

Now, I was roaming a hall looking for the Great Hall. I turned a corner and saw Nico. "Nico!" I called.

"Keep quiet, will you?" he hissed.

"Sorry. I'm lost."

"I know."

"Help me?"

"Come on."

He turned and jogged to catch up with him. "Learn the routes, will you?" he said, exasperated.

"It's my first day!" I complained.

"It's mine and Annabeth's too."

"I get Annabeth but how come you didn't get lost?"

"I... asked the ghosts."

"See!"Well… you should've known that you don't control ghosts so you should've followed your house mates. Why didn't you do that, anyway?"

"I - er - slept in..."

"You idiot!" He hissed as we walked inti the great hall. "You have 10 minutes to eat." He informed me, walking away to the Gryffindor table.

I sat down at the Hufflepuff table and started piling food on my plate. My mouth watered just looking at all the scrumptious food. "Calm down, it's not going anywhere." a boy laughed as I shoveled food into my mouth. I stared at him before realizing that he was talking to me. I swallowed and spoke, "I'm Percy Jackson." He shook my outstretched hand aand smiled. "Cedric Diggory." He introduced himself, then after a pause he added, "Are you fine, now? You know... after last night." "Yeah." I replied shortly before turning back to my food. Did he have to bring that up? But he does look guilty. I thought. "Uh... Sorry." he apologized. "It's okay. Maybe you could show me to the classes later?"

"Yeah, sure! Oh wait!" He started rummaging through his bookbag. He handed me a piece of paper.

"What's this?" I asked while squinting at the piece of yellowish parchment.

"Your timetable." He replied

"Could you - uh - readitforme? I'm dyslexic." I explained.

"Uh sure."

A/N okay don't kill me! I can explain! I ended the chapter here because I still need to decide their classes. I didn't update sooner cuz my phone broke. I don't even know how! But it did. A moment of silence for my phone.Moment over. So I was waiting on my new phone and now its here!! Also, if you find any spelling mistakes that's because I am not used to using this keyboard.
