No that is NOT the plot I originally planned. You'll see in this chapter that it's different than that. Yeah Piper hating Reyna… I was saying no way. Like I wrote, it wasn't Reyna's fault. Thank you and here's the next chapter.

Oh yeah and Happy Birthday to my cousin!

Jason's POV:

It was early morning and a certain son of Jupiter was sitting at the top of Zeus' Fist. Jason was never the early riser, ever. But here he was before morning curfew. His life was just messed up and he wanted to think. Hera or Juno just gave him back his memory.

The son of Jupiter now knew that Reyna was just his best friend. And yesterday, he tried to explain this to the daughter of Bellona. Oh yeah, Reyna understood. But she openly proposed the idea of them becoming more. And Jason almost said yes. Almost! Something was holding him back though.

Piper, the daughter of Aphrodite. Yeah, he knew that the Romans were expecting him to get together with Reyna. But he knew he couldn't. He just could not say yes. All because of Piper McLean. She was kind, thought of everyone else, and overall was a great person. It didn't hurt too that she was beautiful and Jason's best friend.

Reyna was his best friend too. Yes, she was pretty and brave. But she was a bit intimidating. Besides, during the campfire, Jason couldn't help but notice Leo sitting a bit too close to Reyna and Reyna surprisingly smiling at Leo the whole time. So Reyna had her own relationship. (A/N: yeah, I thought: Hey everyone should have a relationship. Leo would be good for Reyna and vice versa.)

So now that his feelings were straightened out. Shouldn't everything be all happy with him and Piper? Wrong. Over the past month, Piper seemed to distance herself more and more from Jason. Her tone when speaking to him wasn't really friendly. And her eyes weren't kaleidoscope-like but cold gunmetal gray.

He closed his eyes for a while. And when he opened them and turned around, he saw a motionless Piper staring back at him. They kinda stayed that way for a while before Jason said,"Hey."

PIPER'S POV

Oh shoot! I planned to simply go back to the Aphrodite cabin before Jason would notice me. But at the last minute, he had to turn around and notice me. The Fates must be particularly interested in making my love life harder. Especially my mother… I can see her right now squealing about this.

Jason patted the ground beside him, beckoning me to sit beside him. I went over and sat down. We were quite silent. It was so awkward not like the usual comfortable silence we used to share. I decided to break the ice.

"So," I leaned back as Jason looked at me. "What brings you here?" He seemed to think about it before answering, "Oh you know, thinking. Couldn't really do that in camp without Leo and his ADHD. "I laughed at that one. "So, how about you, Pipes?" Jason looked me in the eye when he said that. I kinda blushed at that.

"Oh, you know, just thinking." I looked to the ground to avoid his gaze. I peeked at him and he was still looking at me. I wonder what he was thinking about. Er, not that I cared any more. "How's Reyna?" I asked tentatively, playing around with my zipper as I looked at him.

"Great I guess… I saw her with Leo." That surprised me. "Leo and Reyna?" I managed to squeak out before dissolving in laughter. Jason was laughing too and I couldn't help but think how cute he looked. Ok, Piper, STOP thinking about that. Must be my mother fiddling with my thoughts.

"Seriously, Leo and Reyna together."I managed to say after controlling my laughter. "Yeah, didn't you notice them at the camp fire? Can't believe my two best friends are getting together." My heart fluttered at the thought that I now stood a chance to have Jason. For the past few days I would shut these thoughts up. But now, as I smiled at Jason, I welcomed the thought. And I felt hope that there will be an us.

The conch horn sounded and Jason held his hand for me with a look saying Friends? I took his hand gratefully as a reply. And as we walked through the woods, chatting and laughing as usual, I couldn't help but be so happy. I walked past a pool of water and saw that my eyes were changing color as usual. Everything was back to normal and I couldn't help but think as I looked at Jason that it may get better.

Like it? Hate it? Do review. Thanks for reading
