I do not own PJO

"I feel like this date has escalated rather quickly." I stated. Percy nodded.

"But we don't know each other very well... so what does that make us?" Percy asked.

"I don't know. Let's keep going on little dates to get to know each other?" I recommended.

"Sounds like a plan." Percy grinned. "Ice cream?"

"that sounds like a wonderful plan!" I smiled. He started the engine.

When Percy dropped me off at the doorstep, I felt like the luckiest girl alive.

We hugged, and then I walked into Piper's and my apartment.

"How did it go, girlie?" Piper asked.

"GOOD." I responded simply.

"One word responses are the Worst! Give me the good details, Annie." Piper told me.

"Fine, we went to the movies, we saw Lilo and Stitch, since they were replaying things this week. Thenwegotintohiscar, thenwekissed, and then we went out for ice cream-" I started.

"wait, what did you say?" Piper asked.

"We went out for ice cream...?" I said.

"No, before that, you were talking too fast." Piper instructed.

"We got into his car..." I said.

"No! After that!" Piper told me.

"Then. We. Kissed?" I asked her nervously.

"Yes, yes, yes,yes,yes,yes,yes!" Piper jumped up and down.

"Dude! Chill! You have another body inside yours!" I told her. She stopped jumping.

"But it is still AWESOME!" Piper said, excited.

"Shhhhhhh, Piper. Shhhhhhhh." I hushed her. She celebrated silently.

I chuckled.

When I got into my bed, I stared at the ceiling, wishing I could feel those lips against mine before I fell asleep.
