I. Reyna

Reyna got ready to leave. She sighed and groaned. She still had about 400 letters to pass out. She was a bit mad at Jason. Showing up with a new girlfriend and then asking her to show his girlfriend around? Well yeah, you should get her point I mean, please, coming back after EIGHT MONTHS of disappearing only to come back with his new GIRLFRIEND. Reyna spent the whole night crying. Jason had actually asked her out multiple times, but she declined politely and sometimes err...not so politely. Reyna smiled at the time Jason asked her out and she got Bobby, the Camp Jupiter prankster, to spray paint his whole villa with a giant NO. She chuckled softly at the reaction on his face when he say it. But that night, before he left, he asked her out and she said yes.

*Flashback*

Reyna left the Senate rubbing her eyes tiredly after arguing with Octavian all afternoon. Jason popped behind a tree and yelled" SURPRISE!"

It was silent for about a minute. Then Reyna burst out laughing. "What are you doing, Grace?"

"Give me a sec," Jason mumbled. "Bobby was supposed to be here!"

Reyna smiled, making her look years younger. Jason thought dreamily her smile made her radiant, even stunning! Until... Reyna said," Oh, I saw Bobby just about a couple minutes ago. He was at the dining hall stuffing his face full of red velvet cupcakes."

Jason's face turned red with anger and yelled," BOBBY!"

A lump covered in frosting said, "WHAT DO YOU WANT?"

"Bobby?" Reyna asked tentatively.

He saluted her, making him look even more like a snowman. "Indeed I am the great Bobby, praetor Reyna. Oh and hey Jason. Aren't you supposed to be behind that tree about to surprise Reyna?"

Jason grumbled unhappily. "I WAS GOING TO, except YOU NEVER CAME!" He started shocking Bobby repeatedly.

"OW! Dude, seriously, take a chill pill. It's not even time to surprise her yet. Until ten minutes," Bobby grumbled looking at his watch. " You said 5:30, right?"

"Yeah, isn't it?"

"Dude. look again. Its only 5:20."

Jason looked at his own watch and said with a shocked look," Oh. Sorry bro, you forgive me though, right?" he said sheepishly.

"Fine, but on one condition do it right now."

Jason gulped nervously, looking at Reyna who was currently amusing herself by eavesdropping on the boys' conversation. "Fine."

"Woo-hoo! That's great! Finally!"

"Bobby, you aren't helping." He gulped nervously and turned toward Reyna. She raised a perfectly arched eyebrow, mentioning for him to speak. He rubbed his sweaty palms nervously on his jeans. "Um, Reyna, I liked you for a really long time. Will you please accept the honor of being my girlfriend?"

Reyna smiled slightly and said, "No."

His hopes plummeted downward spiraling downward quickly. Until she continued her sentence.

"No, I don't like how you phrased your sentence, but yes, this time, I will accept."

"Uh, so what does that mean?"

Bobby face palmed loudly. The two soon to be couple turned around startled, forgetting that Bobby was here.

"You idiot. Even I know what she meant, Jason. She means that she is willing to give you a chance, don't mess it up."

"Sheesh, " Jason muttered pissed.

Reyna looked with amusement at the two friends. "Ok, I should go now. Bye, Jason and Bobby." With that, she whipped around hair flying and gave Jason a peck on the cheek.

She walked away toward her villa enthusiastically and cheerful. All of a sudden her day didn't seem so bad. She heard Jason running toward her and yelled," Reyna! Wait! I forgot to do something!"

"What is it?" She asked curiously.

"This," he said grabbing her delicate face in his strong hands and kissed her.

*End Flashback*

Reyna sighed at the happy memory, tears threatening to overfill while she walked away carrying the huge bag full of letters.
