A lot of the demigods who were getting engaged had come up with some cleaver way to propose to their girlfriends. He had seen and heard everything from baby onesies, to books, to carving pumpkins (One demigod he never met even jumped off a building) and Grover couldn't help but think how they were all so creative with the way they proposed to their girlfriends (Nico's way had to be his favorite), but thought those extravagant, playful ways weren't right for him and Juniper.
He wanted something timeless, classic, and traditional; three things Juniper loved. She loved when things were sweet in an old-Hollywood-movie type of way. So Grover decided that's what he would do.
Tree's (even beautiful ones) didn't need or really like diamonds, so Grover (with some help) weaved a small ring out of twig's and flower stems. At the top he placed a flower enchanted (by the Hecate Cabin) never to wilt or fall apart. The ring was beautiful and perfect for June.
In the middle of January, he decided to propose. He chose this date because he knew it was when Juniper felt the worst. She was cold and really down on herself for not having any leaves. Grove though it was the perfect time to show how much she really meant to him by showing that even in the dead of winter, he still wanted to marry her.
They were just talking, out in the snow. It was a mundane kind of chitchat that didn't really amount to anything significant or one f those conversations you would remember for years. They were in the middle of the field used for Capture the Flag, not really talking about anything significant, when Grover just kneeled down in front of her. He pulled out the ring and before she could say anything, Juniper said, "Yes,"
I'm writing this at 2:04 during a power outage. Damn you hurricane. Sorry it's short, but here was the much-anticipated GroverXJuniper chapter. Last but not least is the Nico chapter.
That awkward moment when you promise to use peoples OC's and never do… I'm sorry for all of you, but I'm just bored with this story, I've been working on it all summer, and I think 15 chapters is a good place to stop. But I think I am going to continue with a sequel where there is the wedding planning and wedding, then maybe even a threequel for babies? Actually, the weddings are almost definite; I already have the wedding dresses picked out (yes, I do need a life).
How do you guys think Nico proposed? But what cabin should his girlfriend be from, that I couldn't decide?
