Chapter 20

POV Percy

It was Friday night and the family, and I were currently sitting in the stands for a football game that was going well. We are currently winning by 2 touchdowns and Jason was playing the game of his life. Well he was until he got sacked by a guy that looks like he weighed 300 lbs. and was about 6 feet 5 inches tall. He was still laying on the ground not moving Annabeth was squeezing my arm hard. She was in her mama bear mode as I like to call it when one of the kids got hurt or someone was hurting them she got into this mode.

"Get up, get up, get up." She kept saying like Jason could hear her.

Finally, the medics went to the field to look him over. Both teams were on one knee. Frank looked like he was beating himself up. He should have stopped the guy, but it wasn't his fault shit happens. I stood up and made my way to the side lines

"Coach," I said and all of them turned. Beck ran over to give me the low down.

"He got hit really hard, his shoulder is out of place and he's on the way to the hospital. He's out for a while. I just hope he's ready for playoffs in 2 weeks."

"Me too. If he isn't he's going to pissed."

"Just go with him and keep me updated I know Leo and Frank will want to know what's happening."

"Did you forget about your daughter?"

"Oh, shit yea she'll want to know too." I laughed

"Alright, I'll call you as soon as I can." I made my way to the stands back to my family.

"Alright guys we have to go, Jason's on his way to the hospital for an out of place shoulder."

"Is he going to be okay?" asked Annabeth

"He should be fine and ready for playoffs in 2 weeks" she nodded. She grabbed Travis's hand and I took Dakota in my arms he fell asleep he's been tired lately.

"Hey dad?"

"Yea sweet pea?"

"Can I stay I know Jason will want to know what happened and I am sure I can catch a ride with Frank he and Leo are sure to go to the hospital after the game is over."

"Yea, Thalia you can stay too I think Jason is fine I'll let him know that you two are staying."

"Yea tell him that I wanted to finish the game, so he could know what happened."

"Okay, see you guys soon."

We left with the others. It was only Travis and Dakota. Connor is a manager for football. He's okay at football but he focuses on his art and basketball more. We loaded up the two little ones and headed to the hospital. Jason should have gotten there by now. I helped Annabeth with the little ones and then ran in. It's not that I am nervous that he is really hurt it's just that we haven't had to go to the hospital for any of them yet, so I wanted to be there for him. I walked up to the desk.

"Jason Jackson?"

"He's in exam room 12, just go straight down the hallway it will be on your right." She pointed where.

"Thanks so much." She smiled at me.

Annabeth followed me to the room with a hand of a little boy in each of hers. I walked in and Jason was playing with some of the equipment on the wall he looked a little loopy.

"Hey bud how you feeling?" he looked up and smiled real big.

"Dad!" I smiled

"Hey bud." He looked past me to Annabeth

"Mom you're here too? Why? I just got hit I'll be fine." She smiled

"Did they give you anything for the pain in you shoulder?" he smiled at us.

"Yea, it's great you should ask for some." We laughed

"I think we will be okay." I said

"I have something to tell you." He said very serious.

"Oh, yea and what's that" I asked while standing next to him. The little boys were coloring. And Annabeth was at the foot of the exam table.

"I just was thinking that I wish I looked like you. All tall, dark, and handsome. That way I can get a girl like mom, she's really pretty." He whispered the last par. Annabeth laughed and went to sit with him.

"Thank you." She said, and then kissed his forehead "But you know what I am glad you don't look like your dad." He looked confused and a little offended.

"Why? All the ladies stare at him when he walks in a room."

"I know that and that's exactly why I don't want you to look like him, you have a girl and you don't want her to get jealous do you?"

"Piper?" she nodded "No I wouldn't want that she so pretty doesn't you think she's pretty?" I just shook my head. They still hadn't put his should back in place yet, so his arm was sitting in his lap. He was still wearing his black football pants and a cut off.

"I do think that. You are very lucky to have a girl like Piper" She was going to say something else, but a nurse walked in.

"Hey bud how you feeling?" she asked him.

"I feel awesome. But why is my shoulder still like this?" he asked trying to move it.

"Don't move it, it's hurt we have to fix it." She looked at me. "Can you hold him while I put it back in place."

"Yea." Annabeth moved off the bed with him.

"Alright go on his other side and hold his shoulder and arm down on his side." I nodded "Okay Jason I'm going to fix you okay." She went to touch him. But he moved out of her reach.

"Hey lady I have a girlfriend, I know I am sexy, but I'm taken." I laughed at him

"Jay, she's going to help you not take you away from Piper. She just wants to help."

"I guess she can help." He still looked worried.

"On the count of three I am going to put your shoulder back okay?" he nodded "One, two." And on three she pushed his arm up and he yelled loudly.

"Holly hell lady you didn't say it would hurt." He took the hand I had and rubbed his arm.

"Sorry, I forgot to tell you." She put a sling on him. "You have to wear this for a week okay?" he nodded "The doctor will be in soon to make sure it was done properly. I have done my fair share of these, but he likes to double check especially with athletes. He was one himself."

"Thank you." I said, and she walked out and in walked Thalia, Hazel, Frank, Leo, Connor, and Piper.

"Jason, you have people here to see you." I said he swung his head there way.

"Jason are you okay?" asked Piper she rushed over and took his face in her hands.

"Hey mom it's my pretty girlfriend." Leo was laughing. He held up his phone.

"This is the best blackmail ever." Jason didn't pay attention he was just staring at Piper.

"You got that right." Said Connor who also had his phone up.

"Jason, you didn't answer me?" she said

"I'm fine. Even if that mean lady came in and pushed my shoulder. She tried hitting on me, but I told her I was taken." She giggled while rolling her eyes. Frank came up.

"Jay I'm so sorry that guy got threw the line. I saw him too late."

"What line? What are you talking about."

"He doesn't remember he was at a football game." I said, "He just remembers that he got hit and that his shoulder was hurt." Frank nodded.

"Hey Jason." Said Will Nico's husband. I totally for got he was a doctor. Piper moved out of the way, but Jason grabbed her hand before she could move completely.

"Hey Doc." He said nodding his head.

"How's the shoulder?" Will asked.

"It's okay. There was a mean lady in here earlier. She pushed me, and it hurt like hell." We all laughed at him.

"Yea, Kayla can be mean sometimes. You should try growing up with her." He said

"You're related to her?" asked Annabeth

"Yea she's my little sister." She nodded "Okay so I'm just going to move your shoulder around a little bit and see if it is all good." So, Will did his thing and Jason kept staring at Piper.

"Alright, Jason your good to go." He looked at us "When you get home he might be a little hyper, but the medicine will make him tired. After he goes to sleep just make sure you go check on him. Don't let him sleep on that shoulder."

"Thanks, Will, do we need to come back in a week?" I asked

"Yea come back we will take some x-rays to make sure everything is okay. Then he should be good to go for play offs. Lord knows Beck will be happy to hear that." I laughed

"Well thanks again." He was about to leave but came back in.

"Hey Connor." Connor stopped laughing to look up at Will.

"Bianca was wondering if you wanted come over for dinner tomorrow."

"Like with your family?" he nodded "As in Nico will be there?" Will laughed.

"Don't worry I like you, your safe just come eat he won't bite you I promise."

"He'll be there" I said. Connor looked at me quick.

"Alright see you tomorrow." he left.

"Dad what the heck." Said Connor.

"You like Bianca, right?" his face got red, but he nodded "Okay, then you go to dinner you show Nico you are good for her and then you come home and tell your mom all about it."

"Okay fine." He said and turned back to Jason.

"Alright kids, let's get the football star home, he's probably tired." Said Annabeth

"I'm not tired." He said, "I could run a marathon." I shook my head.

"Alright Jay after you take a nap you can do that. For now, let's get you home."

We all left the hospital. Jason, Dakota, and Travis were with me and Annabeth. Frank had Hazel they were going to go eat with Leo and Thalia. I wasn't happy about it, but they were good kids, so I trusted them. Piper was following us in Jason's truck. When we got home, Annabeth took the little boys to bed. I got Jason up to his room. Piper came in to leave the keys.

"Hey, Piper if you want to go hang out with him till he falls asleep you can."

"Thanks Percy." She ran up the stairs.

POV Piper

I ran up the stairs to Jason's room. I knocked on the door. I heard a faint come in. I walked in and closed the door I don't think his parents will mind this time. I wasn't going to try and do anything he was way to drugged up. He was still in his football stuff.

"Hey." He said he had a big smile on his face.

"Hi there." I said and went to the other side of the bed and sat down with him.

"What are you doing here?" I shook my head

"Babe you dislocated your shoulder. I'm here till you fall asleep. Did you want to sleep in your football pants?"

"Are you trying to get in them?" he asked with a questionable look, I blushed "is that way you want me take them off. So, I can 'go to sleep'" I just laughed

"No, I don't want in your pants. Your to drugged up and we haven't been together that long." He stood up and started trying to take them off. With one arm it was kind of hard for him. I got up and tried to help best I could. He was finally out of them.

"Will you grab me some shorts? They are in the closet on the top shelf." I went in and got him a pair of basketball shorts. I helped him into them and then was about to sit down but he stopped me.

"Uh," he seemed nervous even with drugs in him "can you help me out of my shirt?" I smiled

"Yea, here."

I started to slowly take his shoulder out of the sling and then form there I maneuvered his shirt off him. It was finally of. Here's the thing about my boyfriend's body. It was fine as hell. Sue me I stared without shame.

"See something you like?" he asked me

"Yea." I said he blushed.

I helped him back into his sling and then we both laid on his bed. We were quite for a little bit. I was curled up into his good side his arm was around me drawing circles on my arm.

"Piper?"

"Yea?"

"Why are you with me?" not what I was expecting. I set up and looked at him in the eyes.

"Why would you ask me that?" he shrugged then cringed a little bit.

"It's just that there are plenty of fish in this sea. Ones that aren't messed up in the head, ones that will be good to you, probably better than I ever could be. I just wanted to know why you chose me it was just a thought you to don't have to…" I cut him off with my mouth. I put everything I had in that one kiss. Finally, I broke way. I kept my hands on his face.

"Jason." I said "I don't care that you are damaged goods. Okay? You are perfect in my eyes. I love that you try and make me laugh all the time. I love when you look at me and when I say your name I have to say it at least twice before you finally answer me. I love that even when I'm being a total bitch you are still as calm as the clouds in the sky." I paused at the last thing I was going to say. It's only ben like 3 months but I really did feel this strongly about him. "Jason, I love you." I said it.

His eyes grew a little wide. His eyes were roaming all over my face. His hand moved mine away. He put his on the back of my neck and pulled me forward. Our foreheads were touching.

"How the hell did I get so damn lucky?" he asked I smile at him "Piper," he paused took a deep breath and said, "I love you too." It seemed hard for him to say.

"Jason it's okay if you don't know yet. I said it because I am a hundred percent sure that I love you." He smiled.

"It's not that I'm not sure." He looked to the side. "It's just that I haven't told anyone out side of this family that I have loved them before." It took me a while to realize what he said.

"You've never said it to anyone else?"

"You're the first girl that I have ever felt so strongly about. I do love you. So much it scares the shit out of me. I don't want to mess anything up." I smiled and kissed him again.

"You won't mess it up." I laid back down curled up to his side. He kissed my head and after a while I felt his breathing even out and not to long after I followed suit.

POV Third Person

Everyone was back into the house. Thalia and Hazel were back in their rooms dreaming about there respective boys. Percy was sitting at the kitchen table with some papers from work in front of him. He seemed lost in thought. He was still thinking about getting an assistant. Dakota, and Travis were fast asleep in their rooms. Connor was in his room painting away at the Christmas gift for his adoptive parents. Annabeth was in the kitchen washing dishes that were left from dinner before the game. She was almost done when her phone rang it was Silena.

"Hey Lina, what's up?"

"Have you seen Piper she hasn't come home."

"Let me ask Percy if he saw her come home." She walked into the dining room. "Seaweed Brain have you seen Piper." He looked up.

"She was upstairs with Jason last time I checked." She nodded.

Annabeth headed up the stairs and cracked open Jason's door. What she saw mad her smile. Piper was curled up into his side, her head on his chest they were both sound asleep. She closed he door and spoke into the phone.

"I found her she's sleeping, her and Jason were talking, and they fell asleep."

"Okay, good just making sure she's safe. Is it cool if she stays there? I don't want to wake her."

"Yea she can stay here anytime."

"Thanks Annie." And she hung up.

Over at Piper's house Silena and Beck were sitting at the kitchen island.

"She's with Jason they were talking and fell asleep." The women had a small smile on her face.

"She's sleeping in his bed?" asked Beck with a wild/angry expression on his face.

"Oh, calm down papa bear, at least it's just sleeping."

"You think they've done more than sleep in that bed." She rolled her eyes.

"Babe their high schoolers." She said like that explained it all "Remember what we use to do in high school?" she said with a seductive grin.

"Yes, and that's exactly why I don't like her staying over there." He crossed his arms.

"Whatever she's fine. They aren't doing anything, she would have told me and plus Jason is a good boy he wouldn't pressure her into anything she isn't comfortable with." Beck still didn't look convinced.

"Fine just this once I'll let it slide." She smiled.

"Well since Piper's with Jason and Leo over at Frank's for the night. And our baby girl is at Katie's house. We're alone." She said and started walking up the stairs. Beck was still standing there. "Hey big guy you want this or not?" she gestured at her body. He jumped out of thought.

"Oh, I want it all right." And scooped her up and ran to their room.

…

Thanks for reading! I hope you all enjoyed it as much as I did. This one is way more up beat then the last two. I know that Jason goes from all drugged to like sober in a matter of what seems like minutes, but I would say it's been more like an hour or so. I hope you liked it please review.

Thrawn13- I figured that if anyone in that situation would just take it with a grain of salt it would be Sally. She wouldn't want anyone worrying about her. Thank you for reading and reviewing it means a lot.

That's all for now but come back soon I will have another chapter. It might take me a little while I have been messing around with another story idea. So I promise that I haven't for gotten about this one I just want to see if I like what I have come up with for the other one. PLEAE REVIEW! Love you guys!
