Chapter 10: Piper (Jason has some trouble with doors)
My heart seemed to break as I realized my boyfriend didn't remember me. This also, however, made me determined to find out what happened to Jason and get him to be my boyfriend again. I forced my ideas out of my head because I needed all my focus on the task at hand. We were running. I had no clue as to what let out a roar, and I guess the others didn't either, but we didn't want to be the ones to find out. When we *finally* made it back to the warehouse, I made it to my bed (it was just a mattress) and crashed.
That night I didn't dream at all. That was what worried me. I at least expected some NORMAL human dreams like I had before I realized I was a demigod. But I didn't. What I DID get however, was a face full of freezing cold water to wake up to.
"Wha-What the heck!" I screamed. I started hearing laughter. My eyes focused and I saw that it was Percy.
"You think this is funny?" I asked. Percy had to catch his breath before replying.
"Yeah! Anyways, Annabeth sent me to wake you. She needs you downstairs." He left the room, still giggling like a little girl. I sighed. I got up and dressed, then hooked my blade to the side of my belt. I didn't put makeup on, or do my hair, because I hated drawing attention to myself. However, as hard as I tried, I couldn't. I groaned. It was HARD to downsize yourself when you were a child of Aphrodite. I walked downstairs and joined Nico and Thalia to eat a quick breakfast. I sat down and thought Oh Nico and Thalia are SUPER cute together! I shook my head. Why was I thinking like that?
"So, guys, what's new with you?" I asked.
"Oh, you know, just trying to rescue more demigods while we try not to be attacked or eaten by monsters." Replied Nico.
Thalia added, "So you know, the usual." I nodded, and started to eat my heath bar. "So, do you guys know what the monster is that's letting out all the roars?" Nico and Thalia exchanged a worried look. "We have our suspicions, but we can't be sure... yet." Thalia said. I nodded again and the room fell into awkward silence. The silence was broken by Jason walking into the door with a loud THUD. I rushed to his side, "Oh my Gods, Jason, Are you okay?" Jason Staggered to his feet. "Yeah, Yeah. I'm fine. Just a little shaken up." I helped him over to the table where Thalia jumped up and helped me lift Jason into a chair. Thalia lifted up his bangs and checked Jason's head; She winced.
"Hey Nico, could you get me the first aid kit?" She asked. Nico scrambled out of his chair to get the kit. I suppressed a smile. I needed a plan to get them together; they obviously both have feelings for each other. I turned my thoughts over to Jason as Thalia applied cream and a bandage to the wound. Just then Annabeth barged in, looking slightly infuriated. I glanced at the time. 8:30. "Merde!" I cursed. I was supposed to be there at 8:10. "I'm super sorry Annabeth. I wasn't paying attention to the time, and then Jason ran into the door, and.. and..." I tried to continue. Annabeth cut me off, "Wait, Jason ran INTO the door?" I nodded and she broke into a smile. She looked a lot better when she smiled. She shook her head and simply said, "Whatever, but we should probably start or we won't be able to practice much." I looked back at Thalia and Jason. Thalia nodded and urged me to go... with her head. Annabeth turned on her heel and started walking downstairs, the way she came. I stood at the steps, took one whiff of the musty air and gagged. I swallowed my courage and made my way downstairs, making sure to breath through my mouth. I wondered nervously what Annabeth was going to teach me... down in the basement where no one could hear my cry... I shook off the thought. I could trust Annbeth... I hoped.
A.N: So there you have it. I'll try my hardest to update again this weekend! I was honestly thinking of Annabeth accidently hurting Piper and then Piper not exactly trusting Annabeth for a little while. What do you think? Anyways, Hope you guys are doing good! Sorry for any spelling/ grammar mistakes; spell- check doesn't catch EVERYTHING! Thanks for reading!
