Dear reader,
So the beginning of this chapter is the same night as my last chapter. I'm so sorry; I didn't expect this chapter would be so long. Don't forget to review and enjoy….
Yours in demigodishness,
Kaitlyn chase
Piper POV
After what had happened today I just wanted to sleep. I had probably ruined the best couple in the whole world. I walked to my cabin. The sun was setting behind the hills, making the path dark. I passed the woods were we play capture the flag every Friday. The woods looked eerie in the dark, with the sounds of the monsters roaming around, watching your every move. Anticipating your next encounter with the ghastly beasts in battle. I shuttered to think of such monsters during the night. The beach was on the way to my cabin and I had time to spare, so I walked onto the sand. The beach glowed with the evening light of the setting sun. It was so peaceful, the whole scene looked like it was saying "come lay on my warm sand and forget your worries". I walked across the sand thinking of how romantic it would be if I was with Jason. I was so wrapped in the thought of Jason and me I almost tripped over Percy. He was sitting on the beach in a swim suit, looking into the waves. I felt so guilty I almost ran away, but I knew I had to make things better. I stayed.
"Hi" I said. I wasn't sure he had seen me at first. He defiantly saw me now.
"Hi piper" he said. His voice was calm but full of hurt.
"You know Annabeth didn't mean to not tell you. She really likes you" I said. I was trying to put charm speak into my voice. I really meant it. Percy was all Annabeth ever talked about when he was gone. Not in a bad way, I thought it was sweet. Whenever she talked about him, though, she would start to cry.
"Yah, I know" he said. He continued to look at the ocean. We sat in silence for awhile until he finally spoke.
"I know Annabeth, or at least I thought I did. After today I can't see myself being with someone who would keep a big secret from me. Someone who I can't trust" he looked so betrayed. This isn't what I wanted to happen.
"Percy, you and I both know Annabeth would never do anything to betray you. She probably has a very good reason why she never told you. You HAVE been missing for 6 months" I said, I was almost in tears. I couldn't imagine what Annabeth would do if Percy broke up with her.
Percy suddenly leaned over to me and kissed me on the lips. His lips were soft and salty. I automatically pulled away.
"Oh my gods Percy!" I yelled at him. I stood straight up and ran from the beach. I never looked back once. Once I was at my cabin, I let myself think of what just happened. Had that really just happened? or was that just my imagination? Had I really just kissed Percy Jackson?. The one thing that scared me the most wasn't the fact that I had kissed him, or that Annabeth would probably hate me for the rest of my life, it was the fact that I actually liked the kiss. I caught myself smiling as I walked into my cabin. Surprisingly there was no one there except kaitlyn.
"Where is everybody?" I asked her. I was surprised, but I then I remembered they were probably in the bathroom taking off there make up and other stuff Aphrodite children 'had' to do to go to bed.
"I think you already know" she said smiling. She was wearing an orange camp half blood t-shirt. She looked exhausted, I couldn't blame her, we both had had a rough day.
"yah" I said, I tried to sound happy but I just sounded as exhausted as I felt.
"Rough day?" she asked me but I knew she already knew the answer. Daughters of Aphrodite have that ability.
"You have no idea" I said waving my hand to show emphasis. She laughed but she sounded exhausted also.
"I think I do" she said smiling.
"I guess you do" I said. Kaitlyn walked over to her bed (which was next to mine) and fell backwards exhaling. I knew that move. It was the I have a boys issue move.
"What's wrong" I asked her.
"Nothing" she seemed surprised by my question.
"Children of Aphrodite know when people have boy issues….so spill" I said as I sat down on my bed. I motioned for her to join me. She sat down next to me.
"Well let's just say there is this guy that I like, I think he likes me but how do I tell him?"
"Depends on what guy"
"Do I have to tell you?"
"yes!"
"Ok its_" she was cut short by the Aphrodite kids walking in. they all wore some shade of pink robes and their hair was freshly brushed. They looked like they were just about to go to a party rather than sleep (except they had no make-up on, children of Aphrodite wouldn't be caught dead without make-up on) they all came in talking and laughing. Everyone went straight to their beds. Kaitlyn got up and walked the two steps to her bed also. I turned out the lights and fell asleep instantly, the thought of Percy still in my mind.
