Reyna

"So, how's it going with Grace?" Annabeth teased. I rolled my eyes, and adjusted the way I held my backpack. Annabeth laughed. God, for a minute I really thought Jason was a cool guy when we talked about what we wanted to be when we grew up. But he just turns out to be an obnoxious, arrogant, attention-loving, popular boy.

After a few seconds of silence, Annabeth looked at me with her serious light blue eyes and asked, "Really though, what happened?"

I just sighed like always do when it comes to questions or giving out the truth. "What happened was that we had a nice conversation right up until he mentioned about my unwritten letter."

"Yikes. That's like the same thing I've heard form other girls who were pure before getting trapped in his cunning presence. He butters the girl up, and then BAM! Asks for what he wants and usually gets it." Annabeth informed me.

I was not surprised. He obviously only loves Piper, but he gives every girl who falls for him hopes and dreams about him someday leaving Piper for her. Although, it will never happen.

"Yay! There's the cafeteria!" Annabeth chirps in glee.

"And there's my locker! I'll meet you there 'kay?" I say, Annabeth nods in reply before making a bee-line to the lunch-line.

To the point where my shoulders started hurting, I dropped my backpack to the floor and dragged it to my locker while holding one strap.

Once I arrived to my ever so small red storage place, I saw Jason Grace with his annoying buddies, Bobby and Dakota walking my way.

Quickly fiddling with my lock, I was able to open my locker which concealed my face from the light-headed jocks. When I cautiously looked to see if they were still there, I only saw average teenagers depressingly walk inside the cafeteria. I sighed in relief and shoved my backpack inside my locker.

I swiftly grab my purple lunch bag, and shut my locker door closed. But when I closed it I was surprised with a stupid cherokee gift.

"Piper! How glad to see you." I say with a tortured smile and hint of sarcasm.

Piper looked unamused. "Save it Arellano, I came here to talk to you about one thing, and one thing only."

"I don't want to hear another boring story about how you persuaded another manager to give you something from the mall for free." I reply.

"Haha very funny Reyna."-Piper said sarcastically. -"As much as I do want to share a hilarious encounter, like I said, I came here for one thing. I heard you and Jason, aka my boyfriend, were paired up for a Home and Careers project." Oh, this is what this is about.

I gave Piper a fake smile. "Well you heard right. Can I go now?"

Piper's brother and sister-Lacy and Mitchell-blocked my way, and I realized there is no way outof this conversation.

"Look, I just want to make things clear. Jason is mine, and only mine. Our relationship is perfect right now, and I want it to stay that way. Are we clear?" Piper said now sounding more demanding.

"Crystal." I simply retort.

"Good. Now, let's go guys." With that, Piper and her siblings strutted to the cafeteria.

Boy, she is clingy.

Jason

"I heard you partnered up with a girl from the top 10 hottest! Congrats man!" Bobby told me before throwing me the football with his terrible pass.

"First of all, your pass sucks, and second of all, you know I would still be with Piper." I reply. Bobby had his hands up in surrender, and swiftly caught the football in mid-air.

Reyna is beautiful and all, but I loved Piper before and I love Piper now.

"What's this about still being with me?" An all too familiar voice said behind me. I turn around to see Piper wearing a short sleeved, plain army jacket ontop of her brown ruffled shirt with matching black skinny jeans. For a popular girl, the tomboy-ish style suits her. She's not like one of those cliche mean, attention-seeking popular girls from the movies.

As Piper walked up to me, I put my arm around her before saying, "I was just explaining to Bobby here, that no matter what I'll still be with you." Piper smiled, and I gave her a quick peck on the lips.

Nothing can change me and Piper from being together...right?

Reyna

"No matter what i'll still be with you, blah blah blah!" Annabeth said mocking Jason who was utterly loud.

"I would give anything to see Jason get run over by a train, and we'll see how easy it is for him to say that same sentence while his bones are being trampled and crushed by the train's wheels. And, all his guts just squishing-" Percy covered Annabeth's mouth before she became a little bit too descriptive.

I looked at my sashimi sushi and pushed it aside, since I just lost my appetite from that wonderful story. "Graphic much?" I said.

Annabeth was going to reply but all I heard was mumbling since Percy's hand was still covering her mouth. After a few seconds of realization, Percy took his hand off of Annabeth, and she just started spitting in disgust.

"One, when was the last time you washed your hands?"- Annabeth said to Percy who was giving a what? face. -"And two, I'm sorry for ruining all over your appetites, but let's face it the guy is cruel enough to deserve it."

Suddenly, another scene flashed in my mind.

"No guy, should ever just disappear out of the blue when a girl is getting a lot close to him." Gwen said giving me a good point.

"Yeah, well I don't want to stab a dagger in his arm and twist it to make it even more agonizing!" I reason.

Gwen just scoffed and crossed her arms. "Let's face it, the guy is cruel enough to deserve it."

I was back to reality with a slight headache. God, these flashes or scenes have been occuring often lately. Maybe I should see a doctor.

Piper

As I take a small bite out of my veggie burger, Jason nudged me to get my attention. "What?" I ask. After swallowing the food in his mouth, he replied, "Lately, I've been getting these images or scenes flashing in my head right after someone says a certain word or phrase. Have any idea what this could be called?"

When I was just about to take another bite of my burger, I stopped and tried to think of plan on how I should play this conversation. He is starting to get his memories triggered. Gods, this is like the same thing when Percy remembered Annabeth the whole time he completely lost pretty much every demi-god memory of his. It's been 2 years since I made everyone bathe in the waters of the river of Lethe. I need to make him think it's nothing, so he won't look into it too much.

"It's probably nothing." I simply reply. Jason stared at me for a bit, but then shrugged and continued to devour his food.

Phew, that was a close one.

"Hey Jase, I was thinking maybe we can do something tomorrow, since it's the weekend and all." I suggested.

"I'm sorry Pipes, but I promised Reyna she can come over so we can finish our Home and Careers project." He replied. Gods, I thought I told that Roman to stay away.

"Isn't it do in like a month?" I asked sounding a bit to defending.

"Well yeah, but she just wants it done as soon as possible so she won't have to see my face anymore."

I sighed. I guess this is probably a good idea. The sooner the project is done, the sooner Jason and Reyna don't have to spend time anymore because of their stupid project.

Reyna has been my competition for Jason ever since! I'm just starting to get the life I wanted, and I don't need some Roman to ruin everything.
