It all seemed to happen so fast, when I first heard that they needed an Annabeth for the new Percy Jackson show, all I felt was longing. I knew that if I auditioned, all it would cause would be disappointment. I knew that Annabeth was blonde and white, both of which I am not.

But nonetheless, I sent in an audition almost as a joke, just to humor my brother, Floyd. He knew how much I loved the books, and was begging me for weeks to audition. One day I finally gave in and  sent in an audition tape. It had been nearly 2 months since I sent in the audition.

I had not really given it a second thought until I received an email: 

Leah, 

We were pleased with your performance in your audition tape, we would like you to come to New York in 2 days to do chemistry reads, congratulations!

Rick Riordan 

"EEEEEEEHHHHHH" I shrieked 

"What, what, what?" Floyd says panting from running up the stairs

I turned around the computer so he could read the email, I sat their excitedly as I watched his eyes gradually open wider and wider, until suddenly he sprang up from his seat and spun me around.

"Leah, YOU DID IT" Floyd says excitedly

I laughed and then screamed with him, suddenly the door burst open again, and this time it was my mom.

"What's all this screaming about." She asked

" YOUR DAUGHTER JUST GOT A CALLBACK TO PLAY ANNABETH ON PERCY JACKSON" Floyd screams

Then my mom started screaming right along with us! 

"I'm so proud of you honey " she says

" Thanks mom" I said with a smile

Then suddenly it hit me, "Oh my gosh, I have to pack, I have to book a plane ticket, I have t-" my mom cuts me off

"Let me take care of that honey, you just get your stuff ready and try to relax a little" my mom says

"Bu-" she cuts me off again, " I'll take care of it, you just pack" she says

"Fine"

                                                               Time skip

24 hours later I was boarding a plane to New York with just my brother because my mom couldn't come.

Me and Floyd has separate seats because we had booked the flight so last minute. I was just about to put on my headphone and take a nap when a boy about my age with curly blonde hair and bright blue eyes walked up to my seat

" is this seat taken" He asked

" My mom and sister kicked me out of my seat" he said while smiling 

I laughed, " no this seats not taken, feel free"

He sighed a relieved sigh and sat down next to me

" Thanks, so what's your name" he asked while looking at me intently, he had the kind of eyes that you could look into for hours and never get bored.

"Leah, Leah Jeffries" I said

He gasped and put his hand over his heart, " No way! That's my name " He says dramatically 

I laughed so hard that the person in front of us looked back at us like we were mentally ill. Which only made us laugh harder

He had a smile that could make you feel so warm inside

" But seriously" I managed to get in between laughs " What's your name."

" Walker, Walker Scobell"
