A little something before I update A Midsummer Night's Dream which will probably be up before Friday. I thought about making some oneshots about Jason and Reyna, most of them are just about friendship with bits of fluff here and there. Since I have so many ideas for fics and so little time to write them I thought these short oneshots would be the best idea to keep my readers busy until I can update my other stories. Hope you enjoy and review.
Disclaimer: As always, I don't own anything, RR does however. Also, picture from DA by MinaxSnitch, be sure to check her works, they're amazing.
The first time she saves his life he remembers not being able to talk to her for a week due to embarrassment. Getting stepped on by a crazy elephant is far from the glorious death he always imagined. As Hannibal races towards him, and as his foot is stuck in a small crater on the road that the forth cohort forgot to fix, he can practically see his life flashing before his eyes. Nice way to die, huh? He didn't even get to bring back the Eagle of the fifth cohort and restore their honor. He keeps pulling on his leg in order to free himself as Hannibal closes the distance between them. Sweat runs down his temples as the ground beneath him trembles under the elephant's weight. He can hear screams and actually stops to wonder if anyone will cry over him at the funeral. They'll probably burn his body since it will be just a mass of flesh they'll have to scrap from the road after Hannibal is done with him.
'It would be a great time to send some lightning, dad.' These are his last thoughts when suddenly two arms wrap around his body and push him out of the way. He falls on the ground and closes his eyes tightly simply lying there for a few moments. He can feel a hot breath on his cheek and when he opens his eyes he sees dark orbs staring back at him. He realizes that his life has just been saved by the new girl who joined camp less than a month ago. She finally stands up and says nothing as she dusts her clothes and walks away. After that he learns her name from his friends and watches her from afar until finally he gathers his courage to thank her for saving his life. She just nods like it was the most natural thing and anyone in her place would have done the same.
Funny, he wonders why this memory came into his mind right in this moment. The moment when Reyna looks at him trying to hide the sadness in her eyes. The moment she sees him and Piper together. The moment he feels like he betrayed the person who saved his life from an angry elephant.
A bit angsty for the first chapter but the ones that follow are happier. Reviews would be lovely.
