Pet Peeves

Jason was getting on Reyna's nerves. Again.

He was tapping that damn pencil on that desk and Reyna was about to rip that blonde hair out of his empty head.

Tap. Tap. Tap.

Reyna was going to lose it.

Tap. Tap Tap.

She was going to kill him.

Tap. Tap. Tap

She was going to feed him to the hellhounds.

Tap. Tap. Tap.

Hades, she was going to bring back Krios and throw them both in Tartarus with their hands around each other's necks.

Okay…so maybe she wouldn't go THAT far…

Tap. Tap. Tap

Well, maybe she would…

"Stop it!" she finally screamed. "Stop. Tapping. The. Pencil!"

Jason fell out of his praetor's chair, startled. "Why?" he asked.

"Because it's getting on my nerves."

Jason gasped. "Well maybe it's not all about you!" he screamed. "Maybe tapping the pencil helps me relax. Maybe therapists prescribe it to me. YOU DON'T KNOW ME!"

"…Did Dakota give you Kool-Aid?"

Jason replied a little too quickly. "NO!"

Reyna bit back a laugh. "Show me your tongue," she commanded. Jason clamped his mouth shut and shook his head fervently.

"SHOW ME YOUR TONGUE!" she commanded again.

"NO!"

Reyna had enough. She launched herself across the table toward Jason who was still on the floor. She pinned him down and he started trying to squirm out from under him. So she began to tickle him.

"Stop!" Jason laughed. Reyna shoved her hand in his mouth while it was open and pulled out his tongue. It was bright red.

"Dammit!" she cried. "I told you to stay away from that stuff!"

Jason stared up at her, terrified. "But it's so good!"

"Ugh." Reyna complained. "You are the single most annoying person I have EVER had the misfortune of knowing!" She pushed him down again onto the floor, and his pencil broke in half.

"Reyna!" he whined. "Look what you did!" he cried, holding up the two pieces.

Reyna smiled cruelly. "Thank the gods," she told him. He pouted.

"My pencil is dead now," he told her seriously. "And my pencil and I will never, ever forgive you. How am I supposed to do all this paperwork now?"

Reyna frowned. She hadn't thought about that. "Ummm…" she said, but Jason interrupted.

"Exactly! Now you have to do all this paperwork all by yourself!" he told her. Reyna glared at him. "Or maybe not…" he demanded.

And that was how Jason ended up doing paperwork in the Principia for the rest of the day.


A/N: Welp. Thanks for reading.

Hey, I just wrote this, and this is crazy, but I need motivation, so review maybe?
