Piper POV (OMG! Its in first person!)

"But-but-but, I'm a guy, and I should be better at video games than you!" Leo exclaims, throwing his controller down, almost breaking it. Apparently he realized that it almost broke too, because he scooped it up and started fiddling with it.

"And you also should be better at sports, but are you?" I tease, relaxing back onto the couch.

Leo gives me a look.

"Not all guy's can be like Jason, ya know." he says, "Don't rub it in my elfish face."

"I wasn't saying you had to be like Jason." I say, rolling my eyes at his behavior, "To be honest, I prefer you like this. Great at fixing things. Lightens the mood. Breaks the ice. Friendly. Not a sports person, and sucks at video games."

"Why thank you." Leo sasses, flipping his hair out of his eyes.

"HEY GUY'S!" Nico yells from the top of the staircase, "Does any of you know when she's coming back? Because I forgot."

"If any of us should know, Nics, its you." I say, "And she comes back in march. She want's to go to the Chinese lantern festival and stuff."

He's lucky my dad isn't home because he'd get yelled at for yelling. Hypocritical, I know. But that's just the way we roll.

"But that's ages away!" He complains, stomping down the stairs like a five year old throwing a tantrum. "And she's gonna be there for her birthday."

"I know, I know, Nics." Leo says, placing the now-fixed controller down and jumping upto the seventeen year old, and tugging him down to his height before stroking his ebony hair. Nico gives him a sour look, before ripping himself out of leo's arms.

I laugh. Nico glares at me and I raise my hands in a sign of surrender. He plonks down on the couch and buries his pale face in a pillow. He blends in with the black of the couch and the dark room. Leo, apparently doesn't realize he's there because he goes and sits on top of him.

Nico makes a strangling noise, and Leo wriggles on Nico's back.

"Piper, your couch is really uncomfy." He says, slapping Nico's back. His face pales, and his hand keeps patting up towards Nico's head. "I'm sitting on Nico, aren't I?"

I start laughing again, and clapping my hands like a retarded seal. I fall back onto the couch and keep laughing until it feel like I can't breathe. I stop laughing and sit up to find Leo on the floor rubbing his head, and Nico sitting triumphantly on the couch.

The front door opens, and light leaks in. I hiss and lean away from the light.

"Jesus, Pipes. You'd think you were a vampire or something." Annabeth says, dropping the plastic shopping bag in her hand and pulling Percy in after her. Percy shuts the door, with a grin that seems permanently plastered on his face.

"Pipes. C'mere!" Percy beckons, waving me over. I stand up, my tired legs screaming in protest, and walk over to him. He leads me to the laundry room, and shuts and locks the door behind him.

"What?" I whisper.

"She's coming back early, just don't tell Nico. She wants it to be a surprise." A grin stretches out on my face, and I hug Percy. "I know, I know. I'm amazing."

"Whats her coming back got to do with you?" I ask, Pulling away and opening the door.

"Nothing." He says. "Where's Jace?"

"Sleeping somewhere." I wave my hand and flop onto the couch, which is clear of Nico thankfully.

Annabeth looks happy too, so I assume she knows.

"Are you gonna tell anyone else, or not?" I ask. Nico and Leo probably went upstairs to the game room.

"Nah." Percy decides, sitting next to Annabeth and wrapping his arm around her waist.

I nod and shut my eyes.

:-:

"Piper."

"Shh! She's sleeping!"

"Mhmphh." I groan, rolling over. The soft surface below me disappears and my shoulder connects with what I assume is the floor.

"Ouch." I say, rolling onto my back. I open my eyes, and find a pair of blue and grey ones staring at me.

"Dinner's ready." Annabeth says, offering me a hand up, "We thought you might be hungry."

"How considerate." I say. Jason's long arm wraps around my waist, and leads me to the kitchen, where a salad, sausages, bread and some other things are layed out.

Percy is sitting at the table, staring at the food. Nico and Leo are sitting on his right, Leo playing with a few bits of paper and pipe cleaners and Nico staring at his phone.

Annabeth clears her throat, and Percy's sea coloured eyes snap to her. "You can eat now Percy."

"Thank you thank you thank you!" He cheers, jumping up from the table and to the food on the kitchen bench. "It was torture. Its like putting a marshmallow in front of a toddler and telling them not to touch it. Of course they're going to poke it or eat it."

"But did you eat any of the food?"

"No?" Percy tries to say, but ends up making it obvious that he has.

"Nothing we can do about it now." Nico snaps. I jump back a bit from fright and from the penetrating glare he's throwing.

"Dude, calm down. She'll call. She might be caught up with some stuff. Its - Annabeth, what time is it there?" Leo asks.

"Sunday at ten in the morning." She says, "So she's sleeping still."

Nico glares at the phone, which I'm surprised hasn't exploded from it yet. (it=the glare)

"I have to call Camp Jupiter, but I'll be back in like half an hour tops." Jason says, de-tangling his arm from me.

I nod. He's been trying to get all his work out of the way so we can spend more uninterrupted time together. Leo thinks its slightly rude. I think its sweet.

After we're all served, and a tofu sausage is sitting on my plate, we start to eat.

"So, what did you and Percy do today?" I ask Annabeth.

"We went to go see a movie, and went shopping for food." She smiles, her grey eyes gleaming. She's sitting opposite me, next to Percy, which could be part of the reason she's smiling.

"Nico, if you want to talk to her so bad, call her yourself. Iris message could be a bit dangerous if she's around mortals though." Percy nods to the phone sitting on the table.

Nico picks it up, and stands, the chair sliding back against his dark jean covered legs. He exits the room with a shady aura.

"You think we should tell him?" Annabeth asks out in the open, to no one in particular.

"Nah. Let it be a surprise." Leo shrugs, "He needs a few surprises these days."

"He'll be mad." I say, clearing away a few dishes.

"Meh. He'll get over it." Percy says, standing up and clearing the rest of the dishes.

::_:: (Its an alien! Am I the only one who see's it? I am? Okay then.)

"The little mermaid!"

"The Avengers!"

"Frozen!"

"Don't be afraid of the dark!"

The door whooshes open. "You're all picking the wrong movie! We all know that 'King of Sparta' is the bomb!" Dad says.

"Of course you'd think that." I say sourly, snuggling into Jason's side. "Slightly biased."

"Yeah yeah." He says, heading up the stairs.

"We're watching Finding Nemo."

After our 'little' argument, we ended up watching Up. I mean, who doesn't love balloons and talking dogs who seem to have a strange love for squirrels, right?

My eyes droop, watching the dogs chase the boy and the grandpa around the zeppelin. Jason's grip tightens on me, and I fall asleep on his shoulder.

A/N

Thank you for being so patient with my updates! I've been feeling all flu-ey and yuck. I love winter but I hate Auckland winter. Its always rainy or windy or unbelievably cold, but it never snows. Its kinda disappointing. The closest its ever gonna get to snow is either hail or frost. Also on top of my cold, I have homework, and I moved classrooms. Now I'm in a really dark class thats dramatically smaller than my other one.

I hope you liked it. Not much Jasper/Jiper in here, but oh well. There's Leo to make up for it.

Also...

I was binge watching IISuperWomanII this morning. Yup. I was watching YouTube for once in my life.

Teachers only day! Hip hip hooray!

Love you all! Bye until next time.

~KaleidoscopeColours =P

Do you guy's use Jasper or Jiper?
