A/N: By request, I'm putting Grover and Tyson in here! This will alternate between them and their canon ships. Pretty fluffy, like all the chapters. Enjoy!
There I was again tonight, forcing laughter faking smiles
Same old tired lonely place.
Grover and Juniper met at a party. Really! One night, some of the forest nymphs threw one and all the creatures of Pan were invited: Naiads, dryads, and satyrs alike. It was in a familiar place, and Grover was very tired of smiling every time someone told a dumb joke.
Walls of insincerity, shifting eyes and vacancy
Vanished when I saw your face.
The first time Tyson and Ella met was quite awkward. The Cyclops was very friendly, but the harpy was quite shy. She refused to meet his eyes.
"Uh—" Tyson began, and Ella quickly flew away, muttering under her breath a line from some book that she had read.
All I can say is 'It was enchanting to meet you'.
Tyson stared after her. "She's pretty," he told himself, then laughed. (A/N: Sorry, I hate these in the middle of stories but I love Tyson. This is adorable. Comment over)
Your eyes whispered "Have we met?"
Across the room your silhouette starts to make its way to me.
Grover was looking around from his spot at the snack table, where he was munching on an aluminum can. From the other side of a room, a very pretty dryad met his eyes, and walked over gracefully.
"I'm Juniper," she said. "I've seen you around. What's your name, again?"
The playful conversation stars
Counter all your quick remarks like passing notes in secrecy.
"Grover," he had answered, trying to hide the blush that was rising in his cheeks. Juniper was very pretty, her skin just the right shade of chlorophyll green. She smiled sweetly.
And it was enchanting to meet you,
All I can say is I was enchanted to meet you….
After Ella had flown away, she had immediately come back. Tyson looked at her happily. "Peanut butter!" he exclaimed for no reason.
"Peanut butter is made out of crushed peanuts. It comes in smooth and crunchy, and has several different major brands. It is a world-wide favorite. For peanut-butter and jelly, please turn to page seventy-two. Food-lover's Encyclopedia, published by the Encyclopedia company in 1998," Ella recited. Tyson stared at her, his big brown eyes not blinking. She was smart.
This night is sparkling don't you let it go, I'm wonderstruck blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew I was enchanted to meet you.
"She was pretty and—and smart…and a part bird!" Tyson told Percy later. Percy laughed.
"Yep. Pretty and smart and part bird. That's all you have to be to get Tyson!" The Cyclops then asked his brother who he was talking to. It probably wasn't him….
The lingering question kept me up, two a.m. who do you love? I
Wonder 'til I'm wide awake.
Grover tossed and turned that night, wondering if Juniper loved someone else. Or if she even wanted to love. She was, in fact, a dryad, and they never fell for satyrs. But something about this seemed so different….
Now I'm pacing back and forth, wishing you were at my door I'd
Open up and you would say
"Kathy looked up at Andreas and smiled, sweetly. 'You're all I never needed,' she whispered into his ear. Her heart beat like a drum as Andreas turned to whisper back. Don't Leave Me by Zhenia Loveskii, published through Suryer Company in 2002," Ella muttered, trying to lull herself to sleep.
"Hey it was enchanting to meet you.
All I know is I was enchanted to meet you."
Tyson tossed and turned, not being able to get the image of the harpy out of his mind. It was truly enchanting to meet her, and she was so sweet and smart and pretty and half-bird.
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go, I'm wonderstruck blushing all the way home.
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew…
Grover thought of Juniper all through camp next day. Percy couldn't help but snicker as he caught his friend's lovesick expression.
This night is flawless, don't you let it go, I'm wonderstruck dancing 'round all alone.
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew I was enchanted to meet you.
By the time Percy realized Tyson really, really like Ella he was just sitting there in shock. Annabeth came over to ask him what was wrong.
"Tyson and Grover…they grow up so fast!" he sobbed.
And this is me praying that
This was the very first page, not where the story line ends
My thoughts will echo your name, until I see you again
These are the words I held back, as I was leaving too soon
"I was enchanted to meet you."
After their weddings, things got even more adorable. Percy kept on fangirl-ing every time they passed something romantic about Gruniper or Tysella, and Annabeth had to drag him at least fifty feet away from scene of awesomeness.
Please don't be in love with someone else, please don't have somebody waiting on you.
It was funny, though, because each couple had his or her doubts about everything. They thought that the other should've had someone else, as they were just too perfect.
Please don't be in love with someone else, please don't have somebody waiting on you.
Things were just…crazy for the two couples. And they never stopped being crazy. Ever.
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go, I'm wonderstruck blushing all the way home.
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
One day, when they were old, Grover and Juniper decided to remember good times together. Obviously, the first thing that came to mind was the party where they met. Their daughter, Pamela, had gathered the other children and they were listening to the odd story.
The two were oblivious as they relived the moment.
This night is flawless, don't you let it go, I'm wonderstruck dancing 'round all alone.
I'll spend forever, wondering if you knew I was enchanted to meet you.
Something similar happened with Tyson and Ella. They didn't have any kids, but they did talk about peanut butter, books, and meeting each other too. It was also sweet, of course, but a little different.
Please don't be in love with someone else, please don't have somebody waiting on you.
They weren't in love with anybody but each other. Every evening, they waited for each other by the house's fireplaces. And Percy fangirled. And Annabeth questioned her life decisions. And it was adorable. One of the most amazing things you will ever, ever see in your life.
