Thnx fr the reviews JasperForThe Win, JasonGracerocks124 and guest!

piperandjasontogetherforever- I'm sry! Can't help it. You see I somehow always end up writing short chapters because I always prefer to start a new chap when the scene changes. This is a short chap too but to make it up I'm gonna update soon!

Disclaimer: I do not own anything except the plot.


Leo's POV.

Vow! I couldn't believe at first that it was Reyna. She looked so different in a dress. Not half scary as she looks in her warrior gear.

And now she was roaming around with that jerk Jason. But my best friend likes him. And I can't let her break Piper's heart. Can I? Got to fix that. But even Leo the great can't do it alone. I would need help from a certain Love Goddess' daughter.

"Are you sure about this, Pollux?" someone whispered from a bush. I stopped on my track and blinked.

"Who's there?" I asked.

"A talking bush," someone whispered back.

"I always knew there is such a thing!" I said.

"Leo? Man is that you?"

"Pollux?" I asked. Just then Pollux and Castor came out of the bush. "What were you doing in here?"

"Seeing if our plan works," Castor said and Pollux elbowed him. "Oww! Oh c'mon! Leo's cool."

Pollux sighed. "Fine! We spiked the punch."

"But didn't Silena told you not to do it?" I asked.

"Well technically, we had already done it before she told us not to. She said we can't spike the drink now, but we are not doing it now, are we?"

I scratched my head. "Whatever. You secret's safe with me. But have you seen Silena around. Got something to discuss with her."

"She's checking on the snacks table," Castor said.

I nodded and went away.

"No!" Silena squealed. "I told you no peanut butter sandwiches! Many people are allergic to peanut butter"

Nico looked troubled and said, "Tyson begged me to do it. And when I denied, he started crying. What was I supposed to do?"

"Hey Nico! Thalia was looking for you. She looked murderous," I told him.

"Uh-oh. Um... Silena how about if we have this discussion afterwards. Got to go. Bye!" Nico said and shadow travelled at that instant.

Silena groaned. "Son of Hades!"

"Yeah he is," I said.

"Why did you do that?" Silena asked.

"Got something important to tell you," I said and told her all about it.

She smiled evilly and said, "Don't worry, Leo. I've already thought something about it. But I would need you too."

I gulped. "Please tell me no one's getting hurt."

"I can't promise," she said and went away.

I shuddered. And people say children of Aphrodite are not scary. If you ask me, they are the first people you should never mess up with. You never know what you would wake up wearing next day. Afterall, beautiful people are dangerous people.


Luke's POV

"Luke! You're up!" Connor called out from outside the cabin.

"Coming," I replied. I was ready and was checking for the last time in the mirror. I was wearing a suit with white coat, white shirt, black trousers and a black tie . If it would have been my choice, I would have settled for a jeans and a shirt. But Silena wouldn't let me. Especially with her whole plan in her mind.

She just wants to make Piper happy. And I couldn't blame her. Piper was an adorable innocent kind of girl. But in her kaleidoscopic eyes there was not only innocence... There was pain. She is really pretty and I would be flattered if she actually starts liking me, but Piper's feelings for Jason runs too far deep. Even if she moves on someday, I don't think she would ever able to let anyone in again.

And for now, I don't have my hopes up. I just want to help take away some of her pain, just like everyone at the camp...

"Luke, Silena says if you don't get there in five, she's gonna kick you in the *****," Travis called out from outside the cabin.

"No she didn't," I called out.

"Yeah, you're right. But she did say something along the lines," Connor called out.

"Coming!" I called out, sighed and went outside.

Everyone had gathered at the pavilion. Have to say Silena had done a marvellous job. The usual tables each for each cabin had been replaced by the longest table I had ever seen. Hell, this could even make a World Record! But I wouldn't have thought that both the camps would fit in if many children hadn't returned to their homes for Christmas. The table was filled with various delicacies and was presently guarded by Argus who had six of his eyes especially dug on Traivs and Connor. Bet Silena had given him special orders to keep some of his eyes on them if they try to mess up something.

The whole camp was draped in rosaries and christmas decorations. Camp Half-Blood's and Camp Jupiter's flags ran all over the place in a sequence. There was an enclosure near the dinner table in which miniature monuments of both Greek and Roman were built with snow. I rolled my eyes. Annabeth and her love for architecture.

The ampitheatre was the most breathtaking part. It had a giant Christmas Tree in between and a stage was set in front of it. The floor was all covered with snow.

"Vow!" I exclaimed.

"I take it that you approve," Silena said coming towards me. She was wearing a silver shiny dress and a white shrug. Her hair were straightened for the day and her face looked glowing. But I knew it wasn't just because of make up or her beauty. This was what she cherished the most. This was her moment.

"I love it! You have created magic. And you look beautiful as usual," I said.

"Why thank you. You don't look very bad yourself. Somebody's gonna be really impressed," Silena said, wiggling her eyebrows.

"Where is she?" I asked her.

"She is-" Silena turned and exclaimed, "-right here."

Piper and Drew had just gotten out of their cabin.

Drew was wearing a cherry red strapless tunic. Her hair was tied in a braid. She looked hot as usual with her centre of attraction theme.

Piper, however, looked... serene. She was wearing denim short shorts with a white tank top with spaghetti straps and which was tight from the top and flowed like a dress from bottom. Her hair were open today and curled at the ends. She had light makeup and her eyes were as usual smoldering. She managed to look formal and informal at the same time... She looked perfect.

"I thought I clearly mentioned a dress," Silena said, flolding her arms and glowering.

"Oh c'mon! She looks beautiful!" I said. Piper blushed.

"Hm.. True. And I like the top so, approved," Silena said smiling. "Now are you ready for your performance?"

"About that. Silena, I don't think its a good idea," Piper said, shuffling on her feet.

"Nonsense. You would be great. Now c'mon! Everyone's waiting for the Gods to arrive near the pine tree at the borders. Lets go!" Silena said.

Just then, Tyson and Ella came there.

"Piper! You look pretty!" Tyson said. Piper grinned.

"Aww! Thanks Tyson!" Piper said.

"So do we have to do that now?" Ella asked Silena.

"No!" Silena said quickly.

"What is going on?" I asked.

"Nothing! Tyson, Ella, wait for my signal. Now go, run along. Join the others." She turned to us and said, "C'mon you two!" Silena and Drew moved ahead discussing about the decorations.

As we started moving there, I wove an arm around Piper and whispered in her ear, "Don't worry. If things get bad, I steal the Christmas Tree to divert everyone's attention."

Piper laughed and said, "As if." I kep my expression serious. "Oh c'mon. You can't steal something that big."

"I'm Thief God's son," I said with a straight face.

"Oh," she said, serious too.

"Nah, I'm just messing with you," I told her grinning.

She gasped and said, "You!" She lunged at me but I dodged her and ran towards the pine tree. She followed me and I ran for my life.
