Guys please check out TheRivalryEndsHere and her singing. She's a freaking goddess! I think Apollo would be jealous of you! Ok, on with the story ...

"Yeah, I was talking to Luke." I tried my best to stop this from sounding like an argument.

Piper then gulped. "I don't know how Thalia's going to think about this."

I just shrugged, though my mind was screaming of anger. "She doesn't control me though, now does she?"

Piper stopped speaking, but then I realised why. Thalia, Percy, and Jason were looking at me confused, then Thalia got angry, I also saw Rachel going inside the school, not noticing us.

She stormed up to me, whisps of her black hair flying around her head fiercely.

"Annabeth, are you seriously hanging out with him?" Her tone sounded hurt, but anger was still evident.

I just rolled my eyes and went to the others, she was taking this TOO far.

"Are you serious Annabeth, why can't you just trust us?" Jason said this quietly, looking down at the floor, his sky blue shirt wrinkling a bit due to the wind, and his black jeans ruffled, with his hands in his pockets.

"Thalia, we need to talk." My voice was a whisper, knowing that if I was any louder, I would start sobbing.

"There's nothing to tal-"

"I knew you from when you were young. Me, you, and Luke. We ran away from our crappy life, I met you two, and we all hit it off as best friends." I told her, shouting a bit.

Thalia seemed shocked. "Did Luke tell you this?" She crossed her arms.

"If you can't trust Luke, then trust me!" My face was inches away from hers.

"I do trust you, but I already know." Thalia whispered.

My fingers started to tremble. "Y-you knew, and you never told me?"

"I did it for your own good."

"Oh please, you're not my mom." I could hear the irritation in my cracked voice.

Thalia's eyes seemed to flare, but it died out as quick as it appeared.

"Luke changed, he started to like things, things that could put him in jail, and others in harms way." Thalia told me, shaking my shoulders.

"Yeah, he likes to put his anger onto other people." Percy appeared behind me, looking at me in concern.

"And how do you know this? You're new to Goode." This question had been in my mind for a while now.

Percy's jaw tensed. "Just because I'm new to Goode, doesn't mean I'm new to Luke's personality."

"M-maybe you guys are wrong." I said, my head was starting to hurt.

Frank and Hazel came by now, their faces confused as to what was happening. "Are we interrupting something?"

Hazel's voice was small. Piper came up to them, whispering something. Hazel nodded, while Frank simply looked at me in disbelief.

We were going to be late for school, but I didn't care, they needed to realise that Luke wasn't who they seemed him to be.

"Annabeth," Percy was shaking my shoulders gently, "Luke will do something to you, just stay away from him!"

"Stay away from who?" A distant voice shouted, but I already knew who it was.

"Luke, stay away from this!" Percy shouted, I noticed he didn't stop holding my shoulders.

"Why? Because it's got nothing to do with me? This WHOLE thing practically screams my name." Luke was coming forward, his fists clenched.

Jason came beside Percy, Thalia did too.

I just stood there, mouth agape.

"Luke, please don't fight them!" I held his arm, but he just shrugged me off.

Thalia noticed this too. "Don't you dare touch her, you've already hurt enough people!" She was screaming, and students were starting to notice our little 'commotion'.

"Annie is the only one who trusts me. Do you really think I'll hurt her?" Luke was so close to snapping, I could tell by his now red hands.

"I think everyone knows that you'll try." Percy said, and literally after a second, Luke's hand met with Percy's face with a sickening crunch.

Jason got out of his trance, and kicked Luke on the stomach.

I yelped but still stood frozen on the spot. Now, students were starting to come.

Percy's face was bloodied, and Luke had a few bruises.

"Luke just leave, we don't want you here." Piper said, for once in my life, I was actually scared of her.

"Oh, but Annabeth does." He said, looking at me.

Right when he turned around, Percy jumped on him, and started punching his already bruised face. I watched in horror, my throat not allowing me to utter a sound.

Luke managed to get him off, and kicked him hard on the stomach, sending Percy flying.

Jason realised that Luke was coming for him, and ducked under and then punched Luke hard on the jaw, Luke screaming some colourful words.

Frank came as well. "Luke, you're just causing trouble, just leave and you won't get hurt ... I think."

Percy, Jason, Piper, Thalia, and even Hazel nodded their heads.

Luke was a few metres away from them, his face bloodied and cut, and his arms bruised from all the punching. Then again, Percy and Jason looked the same too.

"Listen, I'm only here for Annabeth. She clearly doesn't want you guys. He was panting now, his face turned towards mine.

Percy tensed up. "She doesn't want you, you little -"

Luke came up to him, pushing everyone away, and punched him again, Percy narrowly managing to avoid by putting his arms over his face.

Jason was about to join in, so was Thalia and Frank, but then my voice started to work.

"STOP!" I screamed, my voice cracking. I felt dizzy, and I needed to throw up.

They all turned towards me, confusion on their faces.

I couldn't hold it in any more, I just couldn't.

"Y-you guys a-are fighting over me! First my mom in danger, then my brothers, a-and then you guys!" Tears were streaming down my face, my hands too weak to stop them from flowing.

"Annie, don't thin-" I cut off Luke.

"Don't call me that!"

The world was starting to spin, and I couldn't even see anything, but only flashes of light from the morning sky.

"Annabeth you need to understand, we're doing this for your own good." Percy seemed on the verge of shouting, probably because of all the anger when he was fighting Luke.

"I- I think I'm going to be sick." I felt drunk as well, this was just too overwhelming.

I started to stumble outside of the school gates.

My friends were following me, including Luke.

"Annabeth, are you okay?" Piper asked, rushing to help me stand up.

"N-no d-don't touch me!' I screamed, causing Piper to recoil back.

I started screaming now, feeling insane. "I can't do this any more. I have too many problems, i-it doesn't affect just me." I could feel the pressure inside my stomach.

My voice started to speak out my thoughts, much to my protest. "I-i c-cant even love someone correctly. Tell me, whoever or whatever is up there," I pointed up at the sky, and looked up. "Whoever the hell is up there, tell me, why do you hate my life?!"

Rain started pouring down, strands of my hair clinging on to my face.

And then, knowing that if I stood there, I would tell them all my secrets.

I ran, I ran to an area that reminded me of hope, something that died inside of me years ago. My friends calling after me, but I sprinted, and after a couple of metres, I knew I lost them.

Only Luke and Thalia would know where to find me.

I unlocked the door of my home, my dad was at work, my brothers at school. Once opening the door I rushed to my room, and went onto my laptop.

I typed in the answer to all my problems.

'Ride from New York to San Francisco'
