After a long afternoon of "tidying up" my cabin, which consists of hiding all my laundry under the bed, I plop down on my bed with a huff. I check my watch. 5:29. Perfect. I know Jason will be here in exactly one minute. He's a stickler for precise timing... weirdo. As I'm rambling in my head someone comes in.
"Hey." Nico says. I practically jump out of my skin.
"Damn.. Do you not know how to knock?"
"You know I don't knock." Nico retorts, rolling his eyes. "Will might show up later."
"Thank the gods you got here before Jason... that would of been so awkward."
"You're right, it would of been really awkward to walk in on you two making out." Nico says, matter-of-factly. I throw a shoe at him.
"That'll never happen!" I whine with igdination.
"Much to your dismay." He retorts, smirking at me again. I roll my eyes. I hear a knock at the door. I sigh and look at my watch. 5:30. What a surprise.
"Come in!" I call.
"umm.. I can't" Jason says from the other side.
"Why?" I ask.
"Open the door and you'll see." He says. I sigh and swing the door open. I see a grinning Jason Grace with a bowl of popcorn so large it's almost laughable.
"Bro! Where'd you get that much popcorn?" I ask.
"Don't ask. I had to do a lot of favors, some that I skipped to be here so lets get started." He shuffles inside as quickly as he can with the large bowl.
"I'm not even going to ask." Nico says, laying on my bed. Jason throws a piece at him.
"Long story." He drops the popcorn on the floor. "I brought the Notebook."
"Of course you did." Nico groans from the bed. "Always has to be chick flicks."
"It's a good movie! Sue me." Jason grumbles back. He takes the liberty of destroying my bed. He puts my blanket on my recently decluttered ground and grabs a pillow to lay on.
"Di Angelo, on the ground." Jason barks. Nico rolls his eyes and slides next to Jason. Nico looks at me and raises an eyebrow.
"Oops, looks like I took your spot." He scoots over and gives me a pointed look. I know what he wants. He's not getting it. I plop on the other side of Nico and smile at him.
"Nope, my spot was open thank you." I say cheekily. Nico sighs and crawls over me. He pushes me closer to Jason.
"Stay." He orders.
"I am not a dog!" I whine. He glares at me.
"I'll put the movie in." Jason says. He stands up and leans forward to put the movie in. I will admit, I may of taken a small peek of his ass. Apparently Nico noticed too. He elbows me a little too hard.
"Stop ogling." He whispers.
"I wasn't!" I grumble back. Jason plops back down next to me.
"I also brought Finding Nemo just for you." Jason teases, poking me.
"Shut up! We both know I already have it." I roll my eyes and smile.
The movie begins. It seems like as the movie progressed, Jason inched closer and closer towards me. By the end, he was touching my arm. I try to scoot away from him to get more room. That only earned me an elbow from Nico. Thankfully, a knock saves me from Nico's wrath. Nico jumps up and lets Will in. When he sees the comically large popcorn bowl, he just shakes his head.
"Percy?" He asks. Nico shakes his head.
"Nope. Jason." Will looks kinda shocked.
"Jason? Mr. Serious? No way!" Will laughs a bit.
"I guess I must of rubbed off on him." I say. I could of swore I saw Nico wink at me.
"Shut up and take a handful." Jason laughs, shoving another handful down his throat. Nico plops down next to me and smirks again. That evil, evil smirk.
"There doesn't seem to be enough room, Percy could you scoot over?" Nico asks.
"No, there's not enough room." I say. I know Nico won't take that for an answer.
"There's plenty of room. Now scoot." He pushes me so that me and Jason's shoulders are touching. Jason puts his arm around me and smiles. It's strangely comfortable.
"There, now we have plenty of room." Nico says, quickly swapping movies before ploping down next to me again. I look back at Nico and Will, they have plenty of room! I give Nico a glare.
"You have a strangely comfortable floor." Will comments. "It's almost like sitting in the sand.. The last time I sat in the sand I-" He was interrupted by Nico's elbow.
"What movie is this anyway?" Jason asks.
"Free Willy." Nico says deviously. Oh no! He knows I cry every time!
"Umm.. How about we watch... anything else?!" I try to plea.
"I like Free Willy." Will says. Jason agrees. I hate my life. The movie begins and I try to ignore it. It failed. By the end I was crying buckets. Don't judge me! I cant help it. Nico looks at me with an irritated look, as usual.
"You've literally seen this 50 times." Nico sighs. Jerk.
"It gets sadder every time!" I whine, very manlike may I add. Jason reassuringly squeezes me.
"Have you found Willy yet?" Jason teases. I spray him with water.
"Is movie night over now?" I ask. Nico raises an eyebrow.
"Why the rush? We have one more movie. My choice." Nico says. He puts in his movie. I don't know the name of the movie and I don't want to know. I screamed 52 times within the first 10 minutes. Jason screamed 56 times.. Not gonna brag but.. I'm manlier.
"You wimps" Nico shakes his head.
"Well excuse us for not watching horror movies religiously!" I sass. He raises an eyebrow.
"Still makes you wimps." Nico says. About halfway through, some disturbing creature that looks like a deformed potato attacks a kitten. A kitten! Moments later, we hear a loud bang. Jason shrieks and jumps into my lap.
"Calm down Grace, it was just the movie." Nico rolls his eyes. Jason's surprisingly... comfortable. I almost want him to stay. Almost. I push him off. He tries to laugh it off.
"I didn't jump into his lap, he slid under me.. duh" Jason says, blushing slightly. Nico taps my arm.
"You know you're bulging right?" He whispers. I look down in horror. I cross my legs to cover it.
"It wasn't because of him!" I whisper back vehemately.
"Sure..." Nico rolls his eyes.
"Ok movie night over bye." I say, quickly turning the movie off. Jason bends over to grab the popcorn. I make sure to make it extra obvious that I wasn't looking.
"That was fun, thanks for the invite" Will says. "Good luck with.." Nico elbows him again. I glare at Nico.
"You told him?!" I whisper.
"He assumed! You're kinda obvious you know." He whispers back.
"Shut up and get out." I say, pushing him out before he can do more damage.
"That was fun... Next time its in my cabin." Jason says.
"So your dad can just stare at us?" I ask. He rolls his eyes.
"It's not that bad." He says. He then stands at the doorway for a bit, almost like he was expecting something.
"Yes it is.. now get out so I can sleep." I say smiling. He smiles and looks towards the ground, he might be blushing. Blushing?! I'm just crazy. Yeah.. crazy. I walk towards him.
"Need help with the popcorn?" I ask. He shakes his head.
"I have plenty of muscle thank you." He teases. I roll my eyes. He seems to be wanting something, I just don't know what. Finally, he slowly backs out of the cabin with his popcorn.
"We are sparing tomorrow.." He says. I smirk.
"Can't wait to get your ass kicked huh?" I say with a laugh. He rolls his eyes.
"Its on Grace." He then walks towards his cabin. I shut the door and try not to stare.
