HELLO! I know it's been a while and I'm sorry about that. So this is a story that came to me in the shower… I know right spooky…. Actually a lot of my ideas come from the shower and/or my dreams. Just to clarify I won't be updating Howls at the Moon for a while since Whispering Secrets has just finished, which is the base of my wolfy urges to write u guys a story about wolfy wolves, but ThreeBulletsAtTheDangerParade said that he/she will be making a sequel, and I'm guessing it's about One Eyed Percy and his pirate crew, The Pirates with Ethan Nakamura as his second in command, very scurvy very scurvy indeed…[sarcasm] Anyway on with the story.
Disclaimer: I do not own the Percy Jackson and the Olympians and Heroes of Olympus series.
JASON
As soon as Jason laid eyes on the mighty son of Poseidon, he knew he was in big trouble. The child of Jupiter has known about the rivalry between his father and Neptune since he was a toddler, and he knew that sometimes they can get a little out of hand.
Maybe Percy's not so bad, Jason tried to convince himself every second in the Argo II, which was nearing Camp Jupiter. Maybe, just maybe, Jason's conscience said, but after all you're Roman he's a graecus and to top it off, he's the son of Poseidon, big daddy's rival. Jason wasn't so sure about calling Jupiter big daddy, especially when they were nearly touching the clouds. He nervously looked up, there weren't any flashes of lightning or thunder, which was a relief, Leo would kill him if he finds out that his warship has been blasted out of the sky, then again he would be dead by the time he knew it.
Jason tried to think about something else like the food at camp, oh how he missed camp; it was where he grew up after all. He saw his girlfriend, Piper, walking his way. Yes, the son of Jupiter finally had the courage to ask her out, well technically they never been on a date but first kiss counts right?
Jason heard the golden doors of the Zeus cabin being opened. He turned around and greeted Piper with a small, sad smile. "Hey." She says. Jason took a mesmerized glance at her, even after five months, she still has that effect on him. "Leo says he needs help with the ship." Jason looked down on the floor.
"Yeah, I'll be right over." He sat there not moving. Piper moved closer and sat down with him. Over the past few days she knew that he's struggling with his memories. They just pop up suddenly like those gophers in the Whack a Gopher games. When they were at archery, Jason suddenly fell over and he was rushed to the infirmary immediately. Chiron said that he was just replaying all his memories from the beginning making a big puzzle finally complete. Piper knew better than rushing him, bombarding him with loads of questions, so she just waited until he was ready to talk.
"Do you wanna talk about it?" Piper asked. For a moment Jason looked up to her ever changing eyes then hung his head again.
"Yeah, I guess so." And so the son of Jupiter spilled out everything, his secrets, his sorrows, and his regrets to the daughter of Aphrodite. Piper was shocked hearing all this from Jason. She didn't expect the thought that Jason trusted her so much; then again it did make her happy. So she did the logical thing, she hugged him. None of the two demigods broke the silence. Key words: none of the two demigods.
"There you are!" Leo burst in the doors and Piper and Jason moved away from each other's company. Immediately Jason missed the warmth of Piper McLean. "Did I interrupt something?" Leo asked grinning.
"No not at all Leo." Jason said
"Okay….", Leo said prolonging the O, "I'll leave you two lovebirds alone then." Slowly Leo closed the door and Piper and Jason looked at each other.
"Um…I think we should go now." Piper was about to head out when Jason grabbed her arm.
"Piper wait!" Piper turned around her eyes fixed on Jason's, "As much as I hate giving Leo his pleasure of seeing us together", Piper smiled at that, "Piper, I really like you and um..um..um.. Jason stammered, he doesn't know what to say, but Piper saved him from his self-embarrassment and kissed him….
"Hey sparky." Piper greeted. Jason replied with a big warm smile. "You nervous about this?" Jason doesn't know how she does it but, she can read his feelings like it was no problem.
"A little, I mean what if they replace me or something. What if Octavian takes over." Piper knew that Octavian taking over is Jason's worst nightmare. She also knew that Romans don't like power taken from them, and to top it off praetorship was little Jason's big dream and he had achieved it after so many quests and years, and now it might be long gone.
"That scrawny teddy bear murderer isn't going to be praetor, I 'm sure one of you r friends would like to save a spot for you, like Dakota." Jason smiled at the thought of the possibility Dakota was a pretty nice guy, after all he did help Jason rise to his glory, maybe he would do it again.
"Thanks a lot Piper." He says
"No problem, Jace."
