AN: Man most of my one shots are waaay to fluffy.

Pairing: Jasper AU (with a tad of Caleo).

Jason sighed recalling what they had told him the last few dates he was set up with and now this one too.

"It'll be great!" Percy had exclaimed.

"You need to get out more," Hazel had smiled.

"I agree with Hazel," Frank said.

He should have realized it was a horrible idea when Annabeth just rolled her eyes. The first date was awful, as expected. Her name was Drew Tanaka. She was drop dead gorgeous, he admitted to himself, but she had the personality of a venomous snake. The next date was almost fun. It was been, unbeknownst to him at he time, with his old girlfriend from high school, Reyna. They had both agreed that they had no feelings for each other and should just be friends, but Jason almost thought he saw a pang of sorrow in her eyes.

After the two fails that his friends had sent him on, he was beginning to think he had more of a shot to get a girlfriend on . And yet, here he was on his way to pick up a third date. He had way too much trust in his friends.

Jason rang the doorbell and hoped it wouldn't be a disastrous night.

The door opened and out stepped probably the most beautiful girl he had ever seen.

"Uhh," he stuttered, "Hi, I'm Jason." Well he blew it. Why did he have to be so awkward around girls?

The girl rolled her eyes, "Close you're mouth you'll catch flies." Jason snapped his mouth shut and she continued, "Oh and by the way I'm Piper." She stepped out and closed the door behind her.

"So, you wanna go?"

"Yeah…" Piper stepped out. She smoothed down her flowered dress and began to walk, "So, where are we going?" Jason pushed his glasses up his nose and blushed.

"Well, I thought you might want to decide."

"You're cute when you blush," Piper smiled, "You know, I'm not usually the one being set up. I take pride in my match making abilities. Anyway how about, um, well there's this new Italian place in town. I heard it's pretty good."

"Sounds great!" He grinned enthusiastically, as his mood brightened. They walked towards his car got in.

"So you're going to collage in town, right?"

"Yeah, you?"

Piper nodded. They spent the rest of the drive in awkward silence. Until she frowned and said, "Does you're car normally beep?"

Jason glanced at the fuel gage, "Shit. The fuel's low." That's when he noticed that he didn't exactly know where they were. He mentally slapped him self, how could he have forgotten to ask where the restaurant was? Maybe because Piper had distracted him, then, as if on cue, his car sputtered and slowed to a stop. Jason groaned. As far as fist dates went this wasn't his finest. He got out and slammed the door.

Piper got out after him. Her eyes sparkled with worry, "Do you have any reception because I don't?"

Jason looked down at his phone and paled, "I don't either."

Piper sighed, "I guess we'll walk until we see civilization. Or until we see a car." She began to slowly trudge down the road with Jason in tow.

"So," He began nervously. After all it was his fault they were stranded in the middle of nowhere. She was probably regretting going out with him.

"So…" Piper bit her lip, "I'm assuming this isn't the best first date you've been on."

Jason chuckled, "Nah, but it's not the worst either. Let me tell you I don't have a very good track record." Plus, he added mentally, how could it be a bad date you're so nice. And your hair smells so good, like lemon.

"Ha! So, which one was the worst?" she asked. He choppy brown locks whipped around in the heavy wind. For once Jason was glad he kept his hair short and neat.

"Probably, the first time I kissed my fist girlfriend. We went to the movies together and, you know, did what all people who don't have any idea how to kiss do. We awkwardly leaned in and gave each other a peck. That was the good part of the date. After that her heels broke, her phone fell out of the car, and she got splashed with muddy water, needless to say she broke up with me the next day."

Piper snorted, "Well my first boyfriend cheated on me." She shivered, "You know, Jason, I didn't expect it to be so cold. I should have brought my snowboarding jacket, but my friends were like, 'make a good first impression', so here I am freezing."

"Well, you're making a better first impression than I am," Jason said dryly. He slipped off his outer jacket and gave it to Piper, "Here take this." She gave him a grateful nod, pulled the jacket on, and continued to trudge on.

They walked in silence for twenty minutes until they saw a small, cozy, isolated building. Piper started to jog, "We can ask for a phone!" Jason ran after her, but she was much faster and agile. They reached the shop/house breathless.

"Leo and Calypso's Garage: Auto Repair and Mechanical Monsters," Jason read out. Perfect! He thought. Maybe he could still save the date. The little bell at the entrance let out the first chords of "Let It Go". They where greeted by the loud banging of a hammer and the smell of fresh apple pie.

A woman in a chiton dress waved hello, "Welcome to Leo and Calypso's garage, I'm Calypso."

Jason sheepishly smiled, "Well my car ran out of fuel and we really need to get to dinner."

Calypso's lips quirked up, "Why don't you two stay here while my fiancé, Leo fixes your car. We have great dinner."

Piper sighed gratefully, "That sounds good. Thank you!"

The woman turned around and went into the back for a few minutes before coming back with a scrawny Latino boy.

He stuck out his hand, "I'm Leo, Supreme Commander of this shop."

Calypso rolled her eyes, "He means Repair Boy."

"So where's this car of yours?" Leo continued completely unphased.

"Just a mile down the road," Jason responded.

"Alright, just give me the keys and I'll have the car fixed up in no time. Sunshine, can probably find you something to eat." Jason was in no mood to argue, no matter how suspicious that sounded.

He threw the keys to Leo and said, "Thank you." Leo gave him a salute and went out the front door to his car and started down the road.

. . . . . .

After having a good meal with Calypso, he heard Leo coming back with his car in tow.

"Beauty Queen and Superman, It'll take me a few minutes to find some gas, but I think you can leave after that."

Piper raised and eyebrow, "Beauty Queen? Superman?"

Calypso chuckled, "Yeah, he likes to nickname our customers."

"Anyway, thanks for the food and the gas. How much?" Jason asked. He stood up and got out his wallet.

"On the house, we really don't get much company at the shop. Most of it is delivering parts out of state."

"Thank you so much!" Piper gushed.

"It's no big deal." Calypso shrugged.

. . . . .

Piper turned to Jason, "Hey, do you think you want to do something like this again, sometime?"

"Yeah, I do."

Any suggestions for pairings? Just wondering.
