Reyna
The scene that happened before me was the most suspenseful thing I ever saw. Just as I felt my eyes watering, I was about to scream out Jason's name until something confusing occurred.
Jason ran up to me looking flawless and uninjured. I was completely astonished. Did he literally survive that car crash? So many questions buzzed around my head that I couldn't understand Jason's words.
"I'm sorry, what?" I asked.
"I said are you okay Reyna?" He repeated with a soft tone.
"Me? What about you? You just surviv-" I looked over Jason's shoulder to see a small crowd of people circling the front of the vehicle. I saw the blonde hair again, and I looked at Jason. He didn't seem to like he lost any of his locks.
Out of curiosity, I ignored Jason and pushed my way through the crowd to see what really happened. I couldn't recognize the boy, though when he turned to his side and opened his eyes. The crazed blue eyes and tattoo of a lyre was definitely a dead giveaway. Somewhat literally. "Octavian?" I whisper.
I walked closer to him, and he looked fine though that's only on the outside. I can't imagine what happened to his bones in the inside. I mean, he did get hit by a ton-weighing truck.
Octavian coughed, and shivered when I took his hand. "Are you okay Reyna?" He asked before coughing once again.
"I'm fine, but you just got hit by a truck! I should be asking if you're okay." Octavian weakly smirked.
"Everybody move!" A low voice yelled. I turned around to see some paramedics pushing through the crowd. A gurney was being pulled closer by two paramedics following the one that was yelling at everybody. "Sir, I got pushed away from the street by my friend here,which caused him to be the one who got impacted by the truck here." I explained. The paramedic nodded, while the two other ones carried Octavian's body and placed it on a gurney.
Out of nowhere, the truck driver immersed from the crowd with hand on his bloody nose. I looked at the top of the truck and it seems the airbag didn't function.
"Ma'am, will you come with me please." The paramedic asked as he showed me that I should come with Octavian. I quickly nodded, and grabbed my bag.
"Reyna wait!" Jason yelled. I ignored him again, though he roughly grabbed my wrist to make me turn to him. "Reyna why are you going with him?! I mean Octavian has been your creepy stalker who has a crush on you ever since!"
I can't believe Jason.
"Jason! He just pushed me out of the way of getting hit by a truck! The least thing I could do is go with him to the hospital! Besides, as far as I'm concerned, he was much farther away from me than you were when I was about get hit, but at least he was noble to take the damage himself instead of yelling 'watch out!'"
With that, I stormed away from Jason and got into the ambulance.
Jason
Idiot! Why couldn't you push Reyna? Why couldn't you be the noble one Jason? Why did you have to be a wuss and just yell 'Watch out?!' Usually in the movies, watch out makes the person stop and freeze in place. Gods, I'm an idiot!
I haven't seen Reyna since the accident. I guess I'll see her in a few minutes since it's a school-day today, but she'll probably ignore me the whole day.
I took a deep breath, and then sighed. I got out of my car, and it only took me one step before being ambushed by Piper. "Jason!" She cried happily. Piper threw her arms around me, as my mind was still buzzing of guilt. "You disappeared from the party last night! Were you there though when Octavian got hit by that truck! It was very awful."
Piper went on and on explaining how her dad's coming back from worldwide premieres of his new movie, but I was really uninterested in the conversation.
"Great Piper! I'm happy you get to see your dad again, but I really need to find someone."
With that, I rushed away from Piper and inside the school doors.
Hmm, if I find Reyna, what will I say? Hi, sorry for not doing anything to save you? Hey there, sorry for everything at the party? Ugh, they all sound stupid.
As I kept practicing what my first sentence to Reyna would be, a glimpse of blonde hair in princess curls were at the corner of my eye. Annabeth! She should know where Reyna is!
"Hey Annabeth!" I call out.
Annabeth turned around, and looked at me with raised eyebrows. "What do you want Grace? And, if it's tips of where to bring Piper on for a date, I'm not gonna help again." She complained.
I gave her a displeased look, but then focused on my main problem. "That's not what I was gonna ask. I was going to ask if you know where Rey-" I was going to finish my sentence, but then I saw that all-too-familar raven black hair.
She was walking towards me, and out of impatience, Annabeth just walked away not knowing that I was looking for Reyna and that she was in front of me.
I had a big smile on my face, but then it faltered a bit because I saw that Reyna was walking alongside Octavian who had a cast on his left arms and was supported by those things that go around your shoulder.
"Oh hi Jason." Reyna said casually.
"Hey Reyna-" I was going to say what i was practicing in my head, though something distracted me. I looked down to see that Reyna was holding Octavian's right hand.
"Umm, why are you holding Octavian's hand?" I finished.
She looked down at there intertwined hands, and then looked back at me. "Haven't you heard? We're dating now."
Well done Jason...well done.
