I was breathing hard but moved fast enough to dodge his jab. This was the first time he ever learned to do this and he was already so good, as if he was born to do sword fight. "Tired?" Percy asked playfully.

"Never" I muttered before blocking his next attack.

Okay, let me just say that I was kinda distracted during the entire thing because Percy was sweating and when my boyfriend's sweating, you couldn't at all avoid how that sweat was dripping through his body. If he was shirtless, I swear I would have fainted at the sight. Me and probably half of the girls in this class.

He took that moment as a chance to disarm me. My wooden sword went flying to his other hand and a small, lingering smile was plastered on his face. In a second, his sword was behind my neck and the other, on my throat so every slight movement would end up beheading me if ever those things were real.

"Are you positive that this is the first time that you did this?" the instructor was pretty impressed and that was a surprise because he didn't look like he could be impressed that easily.

Percy nodded, handing him back the sword. "It didn't balance well but I had to make do with what I have" he mumbled, wrapping an arm tightly around me. "And I finally beat you in something other than swimming"

"Don't get used to it" I mused, teasing. Honestly, he was better than I expected him to be. At least a hundred times.

We sat back down right beside our friends on the bleachers. All of the guys commented on how he fought, some even begging for them to be taught. I was just afraid of how all the girls were looking at him, as if they just found a new toy to play with. But they knew better than to do so because they had to go through me and everyone knows that they can't do that.

"Percy, do you mind another round?"

My boyfriend managed a smile before shrugging. "I'm pretty tired" he yawned for effect. "Plus, why don't you ask Jason for a go"

The said boy raised an eyebrow at his cousin but nodded grabbing the sword that the teacher was giving him. They did their positions, both having very concentrated looks on their faces before charging. The way Jason fought was very different from how Percy did just a while ago. He looked like he wanted to kill and not to disarm, reminding me of Roman Gladiators in the many movies I have watched. But I know that the guy he was fighting was having a hard time in blocking and defending himself. "You're not planning to murder him on the spot are you?" one of my classmates screamed over the noise. I swear I saw him smirk.

A few more jabs and Jason's sword was at his opponent's throat. "Impressive. Your family has potential. You don't know, maybe it's in your blood." Matt, the instructor mumbled as the blonde lowered his sword. "I'm just curious about who will win if you and your cousin would fight"

Everyone's eyes widened in excitement and they were all coaxing for them to fight. He didn't need any more pushing because he already found that the idea was great training for both of them. "Ready for this, little cus?" Percy teased as he spun the wooden weapon in his hand. This will be much better if they were using real swords instead of fake ones.

"You know I am" Jason answered in the same tone

They circled each other, watching the other's movements. To my surprise, Jason ran straight to my boyfriend but many years of training have paid off. He dodged it the moment they were supposed to crash together and Percy hit his cousin straight in the back with the hilt of his sword. He didn't seem affected. Instead, he was smiling as he moved back to where he was, eying him carefully. "You really take this seriously, don't you?"

"Why should I not? This is probably one of the only moments that I could finally beat you"

Percy let out a chuckle before they proceeded to attacking each other again in that professional way they do. Thalia looked intrigued, almost amused at how she underestimated both. Jason jabbed again, this time aiming to his chest but my boyfriend saw it and blocked the attack, holding his ground.

The foreplay went on, neither really wanting to disarm the other as if they were too into it that they didn't want to end it this soon. I swear, this was probably one of the best fights I have ever seen. And trust me I have seen a lot. "This is getting tiring," Percy muttered, clearly bored. "Why don't we just end this now, Grace?"

"I agree with you, Jackson" And with that, the man charged him, this time, both of them toppling to the ground.

"See, now this is getting exciting" Percy grabbed the sword from beside him and flipped so that he was on top, his sword on his neck.

A lot happened so fast. My boyfriend pulled his cousin up and he greeted me with a huge kiss on the lips. I was smiling as I kissed him back, of course I would, and ran my hand through his jet black hair. Out of the corner of my eye, I could see that Jason and Piper were whispering nonsense amongst each other and I smiled at how happy she already is with him. Once Percy and I pulled away for air, I nuzzled my face on his neck and twined our fingers. "I love you" I breathed against the skin on shoulder.

"I love you, too"
