The war was won. Kronos was defeated. But what happened in the aftermath of the war destroyed me. The decision I made to give the knife to Luke might have saved Olympus. It was the right thing to do, and I don't regret it.

But I guess some things aren't just meant to be. I should be happy. I saved the world. I got the girl. Right? See, that's where you are wrong buddy. After me and Annabeth got together, I couldn't be happier. I always knew she was the one. For a while, we were happy. Truly happy. I guess nothing lasts and everything becomes a mess, like it always does in my life.

You see, what happened is Luke came back. Yeah, that's right. When he impaled himself at his Achilles' Heel, he succeeded in driving Kronos out of his body, which took a toll on him. He was assumed dead whereas he was doing some soul-searching out in the world. That lead him to Camp Half-Blood. His only true home. I can't blame him for coming back. That's when things started getting complicated. Annabeth started getting confused between us. It's understandable given their history and all, but I really hoped she'd been able to sort it out, because after we've been through together, I really believed we were meant for each other. So, I gave her time to figure it out, but then something terrible happened. Did I mention that I have a really shitty luck?

So, Hera decided it was best to drop me in the middle of nowhere with a bunch of wolves and nothing left in my brain except of the word "Annabeth" and sent me off to some Roman camp.

But that's okay, right? I've survived much worse. So, I go on this quest and make some Roman friends, and gain my memory on the way, just to know that we're facing another huge war. Sucks, right? 7 demigods from both the camps to save the earth from, well Mother Earth. But that means I can meet Annabeth again. I was aware of how we left things when I was zapped across America, and that gave a lot of time for her to think about us, yeah? Well, seems like it gave a lot of alone time for Luke and Annabeth. She tried searching for me, she said. But then she thought to assume I had left on my own because she wanted time. As she grew closer to Luke again , she felt the need to search for me decrease. Now, it was awkward between us because she has feelings for Luke, but she feels guilty for having those feelings because of me. I was hoping it would change during our quest. I was really hoping I was making progress when we were avoiding getting killed every other second in Tartarus. But after we defeated Gaea, she said she was so conflicted, that she knew what she had to do but she didn't want to. I guess it was a long time coming. I understood her decision. I guessed she really did love me at some point, but childhood memories are stronger I supposed. I really didn't want to be involved in this love triangle bullshit, and I didn't want to come in between them. Yeah, I said I understand, but there'll always be some part of me that'll always love her.

Here, I am sitting on the shore at the edge of our camp, looking at the one the that calms me down. The ocean. I've been trying to move on, but you know loyalty and all that. I hearr footsteps of someone approaching me. I turn back to see Piper, walking towards me with a beaming smile. She always had that sort of ability that lifted everyone's spirits the moment she entered the room.

I smiled and gestured next to me. She sat, her arms around her knees and looked up. "Trouble moving on Perce?" she asked. I've always like Piper as a friend. She's nothing like your typical Aphrodite kids. All kinds of stereotype breaker. We've always cared deeply for each other, and it was natural of her to come check up on me.

"You know me Pipes, I'll land alright." I said unconvincingly. "Yeah right, if moving on is sitting silently and moping in a corner of the world" she lightly punched my shoulder. I smiled sadly. "You know I kind of get what you're feeling." she said sadly. I was shocked to hear this. As far as I knew things were going good with her and Jason. "What do you mean? You aren't talking about Jason, are you?

She nodded sadly. "We... well he spends a lot time at Camp Jupiter and he seems so distant at times. We aren't what we used to be Percy. It's almost like he's lost interest in me." she started tearing up slightly.

"Well, I'm sure he's just busy with work. He's given the job of supervising the reconstruction of the camp, right?" I tried to reassure her.

"It's not just that Percy, he seems to have gotten really close with Reyna."

"Oh no, don't go there Pipes. I don't know about Jason, I can assure Reyna isn't that kind of person."

"Even so, Percy. I'm the daughter of the Goddess of Love. I can tell when someone is losing interest in me. I still love him so much Percy" she told as she started sobbing uncontrollably. I couldn't look at her like that. The most cheerful, chirpy person I've known to be emotionally at her lowest, I couldn't bear to look at her like that.

I held her by her shoulders and hugged her tight. She easily fell into my arms and began sobbing again. I just held her there until finally her sobbing reduced. I felt good just being with another person again. I pulled back and wiped away her tears. "Silly me, this was supposed to be about you" she smiled. "That's okay, I'm glad you told me. We're supposed to be there of each other, right?" I said looking directly at her. She nodded, finally smiling through her tears.

Suddenly, we were closing the distance between ourselves and the next thing we know, we're kissing. Her lips were soft, supple and it was a tender kiss, and it was prolonging for a long time. I don't know why none of us have pulled back yet. Don't either of us get how wrong this is? After what felt like ages, we separated, our foreheads against each other, out of breath and panting.

"Pipes, oh god what was that?"

"I don't know what came over me Percy, I'm sorry"

"No, I was equally involved. God, this was a huge mistake. No matter what you feel about Jason, we shouldn't do this."

"You're right, this was a mistake" she sighed sadly, but both of us knew it wasn't. It was the happiest we both were in a long time. And we knew it. We shared another look and, this time there was no going back. She kissed me fiercely as I pulled her onto me and she wrapped her legs around me. There was real passion in the kiss. She kissed me as if I was her lover and it wasn't long until we were playing with each other's tongues. Time to time, I would shower kisses from her lips down through her jawline to her neck. Silent sighs and moans would escape her lips as I nibbled on her neck. I moved slowly to her chest, apprehensive of whether she would stop me. She only pushed my head lower, to the edge of her tank top. I slightly pulled it down and began to kiss her upper breasts, as my hand went behind her and under her top. I put my hand through her top and gripped behind her neck and pulled her into a strong kiss, while my other hand kneaded her breast.

She took off my shirt and pushed me back as I lay on the ground, the feeling of sand against by back, as she leans down and kisses me. I put my hand under her top and inside her bra, as I flicked her nipple. She stifled a moan as her took off her top and threw it away. I reached up and kissed her while I unclasped her bra. She pushed me down to her boobs as I started sucking on them and flicking her nipple with my tongue. She reached down and unzipped my pants. She looked directly at me, as she took my dick out and started stroking it. I groaned into her boobs and, reciprocated my putting my hand inside her shorts. I found her nub of clitoris and began rubbing it wile I was sucking on her boobs, as he was stroking me off. "Oh gods, Perce I want you. I want all of you!" she whispered in my ear. I flipped us so, now she was on her back on the ground and I was facing her. She pulled my boxers down and eyed directly at me. "Are you sure?" I ask one last time, as he nods all the boundaries are gone. I remove her shorts, along with her panties. I lean against the ground on my elbows, plank-positioned, and looked directly at her as I entered her. There wasn't a hint of doubt or fear on here face. She trusted me completely, as I trusted her too. I kissed her as I entered to take her mind of the pain and slowly started increasing the pace. "Oh Percy, why are you making me feel all these things?" she purred in between her moans. I took turns kissing her and licking her boobs as I increased my pace. "Percyy, don't stop oh please keep going" she moaned. "Pipes, you're soo good!" I whispered in her ear, as I felt I was close. "Piper, I'm about to..." "Hold it back please, I'm about to finish too." she pleaded. I tried to hold back as I saw Piper arching her back, her face screaming pure ecstasy. "Percyy I'm cominggg!" she yelled at the same time I came inside her. I could feel her liquids on my dick as I pulled it out. Piper had her head in her palms and she was smiling blissfully. I collapsed next to her and she turned around to face me. "That's the happiest I've been in a long time Percy. You were wonderful!" She planted a small kiss on my cheek. "I was happy to help Piper. You were great! I loved it. You're right Piper, this is the happiest I've been in a while too." I smiled at her, while I placed my hand on her back and rubbed the sand off her.

I run my eyes over her, as I gazed at her perfect breasts and toned stomach. "You really are gorgeous, Piper." I kissed her, light and tender. "But…" "Shh" she stopped me before I could get another word out "Buts are for tomorrow. Today, we're both happy, so let's just enjoy the moment." she said. I agreed as she cuddled close to me as we fell asleep, with her head on my chest and my arms around her.
