Several mini one shots about Reyna and Jason, my favorite pairing in the books. (I know some isn't funny and all, but I'm trying here) Jason has a little crush on Reyna for obvious reasons (She doesn't like him…yet. Common thing of like what they can't get) And I may mess up with the order of time and stuff since I get new ideas but sometimes it's about how they met and I just have to write it.
~ (Jason isn't praetor yet)
Reyna was hugging her arms as she looked out the window of the train. They were headed to a quest -she, some guy from the fifth Cohort and Gwen. The quest wasn't something out of this world. It was pretty simple if you ask her. Gwen and Jason were in the hall, roaming around trying to find some food.
Reyna sighed and ran a hand through her hair. Suddenly, she felt someone plop down in the seat across from her. She looked and met those electrifying blue eyes. She rolled her eyes. It was Jason. He has been in the 'camp' since he was three; much longer than she has. But she has been named Praetor recently. Something that Jason wasn't accomplished in his long years being at the camp…yet.
"Give me three reasons for why I shouldn't buy you a drink?" He asked her. Reyna looked up at him with arched brows. He had that mischievous grin on his face.
"I think one reason is enough" Jason grin became even more mischievous. "Why don't you put money where your mouth is" She simply said and Jason chuckled. He wasn't done yet!
"If I had a nickel for every time I saw a girl like you, I'd only have five cents" Reyna tried hard not to laugh at that. "Go fetch a stick, Grace"

Jason has recently named praetor. He and Reyna were in the Praetor's chambers as they finished some work. It was almost time for dinner and they were wrapping things up. Jason glanced at Reyna as she tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. She felt eyes on her and looked at to see Jason staring at her.
Reyna arched a brow, "Can I help you?" She asked him, with a hint of irritation.
"Can you kiss me on the cheek so I can at least say a cute girl kissed me tonight?" He said with a serious face.
Reyna wondered if he was playing his little games or was actually serious. She didn't know. But she had a reputation to keep. She pushed him out the room, "Good night Grace" She told him as she slammed the door on his face.
"Is that what you say to all the guys? Is that one of your pickup lines?" She heard him say through the door. She couldn't help to laugh. Good thing he wasn't here to see her giggle.
(line break)
Jason was practicing his swordplay. He was fighting against Gwen; not exactly the best opponent but she had her skills. Jason swung a sword against Gwen and hit her against her breastplate. Gwen fell down and let out a breath. Jason walked up to her and gave her a hand to stand. "I'm done Jason" She told him, letting him know she was exhausted already. Jason couldn't blame her. "Thanks" He told her for the hours of practice as she left.
Jason walked over one of the benches against the wall and sat. He let out a breath and lay back against the wall. He took off his helmet and closed his eyes. He'd been practicing since the morning. Suddenly he felt someone cleaning his face. He opened his eyes a little and saw Reyna. She was wiping the dirt and sweat from his face with her handkerchief.
Reyna noticed him staring and gave him a face that said can you stop staring? Jason cleared his jaw and simply looked away, yet stealing glances of her. He loved that look of her; so focused, those dark eyes never loosing concentration.
Suddenly he felt a sting. "Ah…" He let out in pain and flinched; Reyna tried to be gentler. "Sorry", she apologized, "You have an open wound here" Jason nodded and let her treat the wound. "I'm afraid I'm an incurable romantic" Jason said. Reyna smiled satisfied as she pressed the handkerchief against his open wound. "Ouch" Jason complained. "Oops. Sorry, I've seemed to have lost myself in your eyes" She said jokingly.
