prompt: I love you- This piece is poing to be fluffy :3
Piper walked down her street, anxiously awaiting her arrival back at Camp Half-Blood after her senior year. Now, she could spend all year long at Camp Half-Blood with Hazel, who fell in love with Leo after a while and came to Camp Half-Blood, Leo, her crazy friend, Percy, seaweed brain, Annabeth, her brainiac friend, and Jason, the love of her life. Only thing was, she'd never told Jason she was in love with him.
She went to a different school this year, called Goode High. It was where one of her demigod friends had gone to school but graduated a few years ago, only she couldn't remember who. She'd liked it, she'd even made a friend. Grace, her name was. Grace was shy towards Piper at first, probably because Grace was new, too. "So, this boyfriend of yours, you really like him?" Grace had asked one day, when they had first really gotten to know each other. surprisingly, it was in the library. They had both needed some community service hours to graduate, and they both had the same idea: working in the library putting books back on shelves. "I don't just like him... I think I'm in love with him." Piper had admitted to her new friend as thy put back a copy of Divergent back on the shelf marked with R, for Roth, the authors last name. "Have you told him?" Grace asked, suddenly curious in her new friends love life. "No... I might this summer, we go to a camp together every summer." Piper explained. "Well, tell me when and how it goes." Grace had said simply. And then they were friends.
"Jason? You there?" Piper spoke into her phone, boarding the train to New York from California.
"I'm here. You're on your way?" He asked, his voice as soft and clear as ever.
"Yeah, I'm on the train. I have to tell you something when we get to camp." Piper told him.
"Well, why not now?"
"Because it's not really something you would say over the phone."
"Same thing with the thing I have to tell you, I guess. I never really thought of conversations awkward on the phone, but whatever. I want to see your reaction, now, when I tell you. Oh-Gods- percy's got another one of his 'emergencies' now. Doesn't he know that Annabeth's not going to have the baby at six months?" Jason sighed. Percy and Annabeth were expecting a baby in a few months, and Percy freaked out every time Annabeth had a little pain.
"Tell him to ease up a little bit. I'll see you soon, take it easy, babe."
"You too. Bye."
"Bye." Piper said, hanging up the phone.
The train ride seemed to go on for hours. First the trolley came around, offering her fattening sweets, which Piper turned town. Then, the train went through a tunnel, making it impossible to read, so she called Grace. She actually thought it was kind of funny how her best friend had the same name as her boyfriend's last name. Ha...
"Grace?" Piper spoke into the phone.
"Yeah girl? What's up? Did you tell him yet?!" She said excitedly.
"No. I'm still on the train. I can't read because the train seems to be going through a tunnel of never-ending darkness, so I'm calling you."
"Aren't you dyslexic?"
"Yeah, but I heard that the more you read, the more your brain will calm down and the letters wont... swim... as much."
"What ever floats your boat, princess. Ahh! I have to go! Mimi just texted my sister saying we were invited to her party! Maybe I can finally be with the in crowd now that we're not in school!" Grace squealed.
Some hours passed and Piper fell asleep. She awoke to the sound of a whistle, or a really loud bell... she couldn't tell which... She grabbed her suitcase and tightened the light jacket around her arms. Even though it was finally summer, there was still a bit of a nip in the air. She took a bus to a place in the middle of nowhere, where there was a car waiting to pick her up. She got in the car with her suitcase and things and rode to Camp Half-Blood.
"I'm home." Piper breathed as she looked at the familiar scenery around her. Right away she spotted Jason Grace's blonde hair heading towards the archery field, bow in hand. She started running, and eventually he must have heard her fast paced footsteps coming towards him, because he turned, looked, and ran towards him, his arms open to embrace her. They caught each other in an embrace, Piper jumping on him and wrapping her legs around his waist, and they kissed passionately. Piper continued to hug Jason with her legs tightly wrapped around his waist. Jason leaned down slowly to whisper in her ear.
"Piper." He whispered.
"Jason." She whispered at the same time. "You go first." She commanded.
He took the hint. "I love you." He told her passionately, and she listened intently to the words she'd been dying to hear come out of his mouth.
"Say it again." She commanded.
"I love you." He repeated, a bit less sure this time.
"Good. Because I love you too." She said, closing the space between them one more time.
TEDAHHH.
