Ch.1 Introductions

Annabeth's POV

I was sitting cross-legged in the middle of my bed. The forest green earphones to my iPod were in my ears as I looked through my Camp Half-Blood photo album.

You lift me feet off the ground

Ya spin me around

You make me crazier, crazier

Feels like I'm falling and I

I'm lost in your eyes

You make me crazier, crazier, crazier…

I hummed along as I flipped through the thin light blue pages. There was a picture of Grover, Percy and I on the front page. It was taken right after our quest to receive Zeus' master-bolt. I chuckled at how young we looked. It seemed like it was yesterday, not five years ago. In the picture, Percy was standing between Grover and me, with Grover on his left. Percy had his arm draped around my shoulder, while mine was around his waist. All three of us were smiling like we had just saved the world…well; we had, in fact, saved the world. I sighed and flipped to the next page. I immediately grinned as I saw the picture of when Percy, Tyson and I had won the Chariot race. Tyson was blushing furiously was the compliment Percy had given him and I was planting a kiss on Percy's cheek, while the other campers cheered and held all three of us on their shoulders. I still had six more months 'till I'd be able to see all of them again. Even though Percy defeated Kronos a year ago, some of his followers had gotten away. So, we still had to go to Camp Half-Blood.

The song that was playing stopped and started playing again. I didn't go to school here in San Francisco because it was too dangerous. So, my step-mom, Jina, home schooled me. I was about to flip to the next page when my two step-brothers, Mathew and Bobby, came tumbling through my doorway.

"Annabeth!" Matt screamed.

"Annabeth!" Bobby screamed.

"Annabeth!" Matt screamed.

"Annabe-!"

"WHAT?!" I screamed back.

"Guess what?"

"Guess what?"

"Guess wh-?"

"WHAT?!?!" I screamed again.

"We're going to New York for Christmas!" they both cheered in unison.

My jaw dropped. "You're kidding, right?"

"Nope!" Matt said.

"Mom and Dad were talking and we were liste-." Bobby started.

"What Bobby means," Matt nudged his brother, "is that Mom and Dad were talking in their room and we were just passing by and they said that we might go to New York for Christmas break." Matt said trying to look completely innocent.

"Yeah, and now we get to meet that Percy dude you're always talking about." Bobby said giving me a sly grin.

"I am not always talking about him!" I defended.

Matt and Bobby gave each other a knowing look. " ' Oh mi gosh, I can't wait 'till I go to camp! I get to see Percy again! I love his eyes and his hair and his bravery and…'" They continued to mock me until I grabbed two of my pillows and threw them at each of them. They shrieked like girls and tumbled over each other trying to get out of my room. Once they were finally gone, I tore my earphones from my ears and threw my iPod aside. I jumped off my bed and headed towards my parent's bedroom. I knocked twice and waited for my dad to say I could come in before entering. My dad was at his desk while my step-mom was sitting on the floor sorting out the mail.

"Annabeth, honey, did you need something?" Jina asked.

"Oh, no," I responded, "It's just that the twins came in my room and said that they overheard that we might be taking a trip to New York for this Christmas break and I wanted to know whether it was true."

"No, of course it's not true." My dad said.

My heart immediately sank. I was so excited that I might be able to see Percy again that I got my hopes up too high. I let out a small sigh and started making my way out of their door.

"What your father means, is that we're not only going for Christmas break but we'll be there fro New Year's as well!" Jina exclaimed.

I spun around so fast I nearly fell over. I grinned as I ran to them and gave both of them a hug.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you so much!!" I squealed. I was about to run out of the room and Iris message Percy.

"Annabeth, you have a letter from New York." Jina said with a small smirk.

I have a letter from New York? I thought. How can I have a letter from New York? It could be from Chiron but he only sends letters out if there's a crisis. But there was no crisis. Kronos was destroyed and there were only a few of his followers still out there. That meant that it could only be from-

"Percy." It was more of a question than a statement when I said it.

Jina nodded slowly as I grabbed the letter and ran to my room. I shut the door behind me and impatiently began ripping the letter out of the envelope. I finally got it open and pulled a sheet of paper that was folded in half. I unfolded it and began reading.

Miss you from New York.

Seaweed Brain

At the bottom was a small, light pink heart. At first, I just glanced over it, but then I began to realize that it was getting bigger. And then, it looked as if it was coming off the page. Well, it was coming off the page. Before I could say anything or even do anything, there was a heart shaped pillow the sixe of my torso in my arms. I put the letter on the floor and examined the pillow. I turned it on its backside and in small letters I could make out the words that were stitched into the pillow as 'Wise Girl'. I smiled and hugged the pillow to my chest. Maybe, I thought. I won't tell Percy I'm coming to New York. I hugged the pillow tighter. Yup, I'll be his surprise.

NA: The song Annabeth was listening to is called Crazier by Taylor Swift from Hannah Montana: The Movie
