Jasper/Jiper (I can't pick for you so you pick which you like better! Also this is post-HoH. There won't be any major spoilers just the obvious ones. But any major ones I will be very descrete about it.)
So a lot has been changing lately. And I can't say it's been for better or for the worst. It's not like I didn't expect things to change but it's one thing expecting it and seeing it. The smallest thing is that Frank is now really buff. Which isn't bad. Hazel is more cut off since what happened at the doors. I get worried about her from time to time because she rarely leaves at times to even talk to the others. I wonder what she's doing in her room sometimes but then again I would rather not.
But then some of the major changes. Leo is crazy. Insane. Loco. Luny! But he's always been like that. Now it's like a focused crazyness. He keeps talking about an astrolabe he got from the dwarfs. And a crystal he found. He isn't as fidgety and it worries me. Percy and Annabeth can't even sleep at night without freaking out about the slightest sound. I walked past Percy's room once to get to mine and I heard him shoot straight up. And Annabeth just doesn't sleep very much.
But I guess Jason changed the most to me since I'm closest to him. He become more relaxed and open. More affecionate around others and that isn't thing but it's just strange because before he would be very tense and not even kiss my cheek around other people sometimes. I guess the best way to put this is he's more... Greek.
I was leaning against the railing when Jason came up and wrapped an arm around my waist. He pulled me close and kissed my cheek.
" Hello beautiful." He smiled.
" Hey." I said.
" What's wrong? You've seem off lately."
I smiled to myself. " Nothing. Everything. Something."
He laughed. " Care to elaborate?"
" The impending doom, world ending, Leo going crazy, Frank all the sudden becomeing extremly buff."
Jason laughed again. " So the fact that Frank has become buff is why you're so upset?"
I shrugged. " I guess. Just a lot of things have changed lately. And I don't like it."
" Changing how?"
I then went into a whole speech about how everyone has been changing. But I stopped short when I started going on to how he changed.
" Well don't stop because I'm here." He joked. He was smiling through out the whole speech but only because I didn't talk about him.
I hesitated. " What happened when you and Nico went to see Eros?"
Jason took a minute to let the question sink in. Something did happen there.
" Jason what happened? Because something happened and it changed you."
" It's not my story to tell Piper." That's all he said.
" Not your story to tell? Then whose is it?"
" Nico's."
I grunted and walked away. I looked back for a second and he just stood there. Good. He still knew when I needed a minute to myself. I walked back to my room. It was late at night. Almost everyone was asleep. I saw Annabeth's room still had a light on. There was the softest glow from Leo's room. Probably from himself. As I walked past Percy's room I heard him mutter in his sleep about arai. Hazel's door seemed to change from a cell door to the wooden door Leo had orginally put in. It had almost a goldish tint to it. Frank was taking the night shift.
I walked into my room and turned on a lite. I set my knife and the sword I got on my desk. I changed into my pj's which was just a pair of sleep pants and a old t-shirt. I looked at my knife. I really wanted to see what it would show but I was also scared. Last time it wasn't showing me any flowers or butterflies. I heard a slight knock at the door. I was highly tempted to ignore it but I didn't. At the door was Jason.
" Hey" I said. I moved aside so he could walk in. But he stayed at the door. " What's wrong?" I asked.
" Alright so I know things have been really insane lately and I know I actually have changed myself but the one thing that I know hasn't changed is that I still love you. Okay? That's the only thing that I can tell you that happened when I meet Cupid. I realized I love you because his arrows wouldn't touch me okay?"
I just stood there for a minute. Now it was my turn to let it sink in. I said I loved him once when we were almost about to drown because I thought I would never get the chance to say it again. But we didn't talk about because I thought he either hadn't heard me or he just decided to ignore it. Now he obviously wasn't.
" You realized you love me?" I asked.
He blushed and nodded. I smiled as wide as I could and pulled him into a kiss. When I pulled back I said.
" I love you too."
As it turned out Jason didn't change at all. He just admited to himself that he was in love. Luckly it was with me and not Reyna. Not that I would have been jealous or anything.
A/N Hey guys! So I know this took forever to post but as you know the House of Hades came out and I had to hibernate for awhile (two weeks to be exact.) It wasn't a terrible cliff hanger like MoA but I still had to deal with it. So the next chapter is my 30th one! So for it I will be doing the long requested, you got it folks! The one and only one-shot of... Clarisse and Chris! (Que fireworks and little kids cheering) so stay tuned for it!
C YA! LUV YA! E-SAW-BELL!
