Prompt: Water
The lake in the woods is fresh and cold. It's perfect for going swimming durring the summer, and that's exactly what I did last summer. Jason and I were bored at home one day and decided to go for a walk. We happened upon the beautiful lake and decided to take a quick swim.
The water was cold and fresh, like the lake back at Camp Half-Blood. We spent hours every day coming down to the lake and taking swims in its cool, refreshing water.
One day, Jason took longer than usual in getting ready for swimming down at the lake. I kept pestering him to hurry up, and finally he came out of the bathroom. Nothing about him looked unusual. He had a pair of swim trunks on, a T-shirt, and his gold hair was still as short as ever.
"Let's go." I'd said. We walked on the path until we got to the three huge oak tree's that told us we had to turn left to get to the pond. Before we turned, though, Jason stopped me. He picked me up by my legs and threw me over his shoulder. I was laughing and hitting his back, begging him to put me down. He obliged, eventually, but not in the way I wanted. He threw me into the lake.
I came up laughing and gasping for air. I looked around to find him, but I couldn't. I spied all along the lake, looking for him, until I found him sitting on a low branch of a tree.
I got out, soaked and freezing, and went to sit next to him.
"What was that for?" I giggled. I looked at him. His face was serious and I could sense a bit of a nervous aura around him.
"Piper..." He bagan. He got down on one knee. OH MY GODS, I thought, THIS CANNOT BE HAPPENING.
"I've loved you for a really long time now. I've noticed how attached to this lake you and I are, which is why I decided to ask you here. So... Piper McLean... Would you do me the honour of becoming Piper Grace?"
Awwhhhh :) Don't you just love Jasper?
