JASON DECKS THE HALLS
(Jason's POV)
"(insert swear here)!" My sister swore, the lights not hooking up.
We were trying to decorate the Jupiter-er, ZEUS cabin for Christmas. But the only decorations we could find-broken lights-were just not hooking onto the roof.
I don't think Dad's too big on Christmas lights.
"ACK!" Sis screamed, sliding down the roof. She had leaned too far!
"HEY!" I hollered. I reached out my hand, but she was too far away.
"HELP! HEL-"
Oh, gods. What just happened?!
I looked over the rafters to see...Well, I think Nico caught Thalia, seeing how she was in his arms, bridal-style. Both of them were staring at each other. Well, Nico looked surprised. Thalia looked miffed.
I slid down the roof, using my wind powers to lower myself to the ground.
"Hey, lil bro!" she yelled at me.
"What?"
"Use your wind powers next time!" Nico dropped Thalia, and she dusted herself off. A few feet away, some Venus-er, APHRODITE, kids were snickering, holding up cameras.
Oh, dear.
"Sorry!" I exclaimed, mentally smacking myself. I had WIND powers! I could've USED them!
"Well, your cabin isn't very festive," Nico commented.
"Yours probably isn't any better!" Thalia shot back.
"I beg to differ," a voice argued.
I looked behind Nico. He stepped aside to reveal...Hazel? She had a few lights in her hair, but, other than that, she looked normal.
"We found lights, and more!" Hazel exclaimed. She thrust her arms in a TA-DA! way.
Me and Thalia looked at the Hades...was that the...HADES cabin?!
A plastic Santa-all in black-stood right by the chimney. A sleigh, with even Rudolph, was a few feet away. The cabin was surrounded with fake snow, too. And they went overboard with the lights.
Nico dusted snow off his shoulder. "Never thought that Dad would enjoy Christmas."
"OUR Dad doesn't!" Thalia grumbled, muttering something nasty.
"Hey, calm down, Pinecone Face!" Nico shot back.
"No way, Corspe Breath!" Thalia argued.
They were at it again. Sheesh, they argued just as much as Poseidon and Athena!
"Can I help?" Hazel asked.
I held up the cord. "Sur-" I stopped as the cord crumbled. "Oh, c'mon!" I threw it at the ground.
"YOU TAKE THAT BACK!" Thalia picked up some snow.
Nico started laughing. "SERIOUSLY?! You think I would be harmed by a snow-" His face changed expressions as the snow morphed into a bow and arrow.
Oops.
"Um, on second thought...HELP ME, DAD! HOLY POSEIDON!" Nico started running as Thalia shot arrow after arrow at him. One of them missed a new camper, whose glasses nearly cracked. She yelled stuff after them, including something that sounded suspiciously like, "YOU OWE ME A PIZZA!" She flipped her brown hair over her shoulder, and muttered something about updating a story on FanFiction.
"Well, I think it's pretty obvious."
I glanced at Hazel. "What is?"
"That they like each other, DUH!"
I laughed nervously. "Heh heh heh...Thalia's a Huntress..."
Hazel shrugged. "Still."
"Hey, Jason. What's up with your cabin?" a familiar voice called.
(Piper's POV)
Whoa.
Where were all the decorations for the Zeus cabin?
"Your cabin's undecorated," I pointed out.
My boyfriend sighed. "Stupid frigging lights. That's all that was there, and they were OLD!" He kicked a cord that was lying around in the snow.
"Need some help?" I volunteered.
"You guys have spare decorations?" Jason asked hopefully.
I looked at my cabin. Forget red, white, and green. Our decorations were PINK! Pink Christmas tree, pink ornaments, punk lights...UGH!
i made a face. "You want a pink cabin?"
Jason and Hazel laughed. That was when I noticed something. "Hey, where's Nico and Thalia?"
"YOU [insert swear here]!" Thalia screamed, as she shot arrows after Nico.
"CAN'T [swear] HELP IT!" he yelled back.
Finally, she caught up to him, tackling him to the ground. They rolled around in the dirt for awhile.
"GET A ROOM!" Travis yelled. He was walking with Katie, and, oddly enough, they were talking about how good snow was for plants.
"WHAT?!" Nico and Thalia yelled. Then, they saw the awkward pose they were in. Blushing, they scrambled away from each other.
"WE SHALL NOT, MY UNGOOD SIR!" Nico retaliated, shaking his fist.
"What happened?" I asked.
Jason and Hazel both shrugged. "Hey, it's Nico and Thalia! They're ALWAYS at each others' throats!" Hazel argued.
True.
"Well, your cabin can't be undecorated..." I changed the subject.
"Yeah," Jason groaned, facing said cabin. "We'd need a tidal wave of Christmas decorations to decorate THIS!"
And that was when I got my brilliant idea.
"STAY RIGHT HERE!" I yelled, already racing towards my cabin.
*OH, NO! THERE'S A BREAK IN THE STORY! DX*
"Hey, Dumpster Queen! Am I getting Jason for Christmas?!" Drew yelled.
The anteater spell, unforchantely, had worn off.
"Over my dead body!" I shouted back, searching frantically for my item of power.
"That can be arranged!" Drew was sitting on her bed, while two of her slaves did her nails.
"Same for you!" Found it! I raced back outside.
*OH, NOES! ANOTHER BREAK! DX*
"What're you doing?" Leo asked me as I rushed past him.
"Leo, can I use some goggles?"
He looked surprised. "Um, sure!" He summoned a pair from his belt.
"Thanks!" I was off running again.
*NO! NOT YET ANOTHER BREAK! DX*
"So, what's your idea?" Hazel inquired as I screeched to a stop.
"This!" I held up my Horn of Plenty and the goggles.
Both of the Roman demigods understood immediantly.
"I thought it only shot food..." Jason murmured.
"Well, let's see!" I jammed on the goggles, and aimed the horn carefully.
I released all of my Christmas thoughts into it: All the holidays with my dad, the Maenads last year, the miseltoe traps, the holiday party, the Christmas songs, and another Christmas with Jason.
The horn shot out a colorful arrangement of Christmas decorations, which decorated the cabin quite perfectly.
I think I'll be a designer when I grow up.
(Jason's POV)
Piper McLean, Decorating Machine.
Piper should be a designer when she grows up.
"Well?" me girlfriend asked.
I couldn't do anything. Except stare at the house.
"WHOA..."
We had a classic Santa, who was stuck halfway down the chimney. A few reindeer surrounded said chimney, trying to pull him out. Another stood a few feet away, holding a phone. Lights were all over the place, making it too bright. Fake presents were around the grounds. The cabin was Christmas CRAZY.
"You like?" Piper grinned deviously.
"LIKE it?! I LOVE IT!" I grabbed Piper by the waist, spun her around, then pulled her in for a kiss. Which she gladly accepted.
"Well...Nice cabin..." Nico muttered.
He and Thalia stared at the Zeus cabin. Thalia had a look that said "BEST. CABIN. EVER!" while Nico looked like we just beat his butt in decorating. Which we did.
"HA! You owe me a taco!" Thalia declared, pointing at Nico.
He groaned. "FINE. Let's go get your taco..."
"YES!" The odd pair made their way to the mess hall.
Me, Hazel, and Piper stared.
"Weren't they arguing?" Hazel asked.
"Well, they're buddy one moments, fighting the next. Must be love," Piper decided.
"Speaking of love..." I pulled in Piper for another kiss.
She put her hands on my neck, pushing it down! So that we could kiss better.
The was one of the best Christmases yet!
HAHAHA! Guess who that girl was, and I take your couple request! WARNING: CAN'T DO REDOS!
Nico: CAN'T YOU DELETE THE THALICO ONE?!
Me: You wanted me to do that...
Nico: ...
Me: ...
Nico: ...You got me...
