The night after Apollo had paid us a visit, a flip phone with the only contact of "Haiku hottie 602" in the list was left on my nightstand. Also, he'd replaced the moon we had on our walls with a Sun that shone six times as brighter.
I was on the top deck with Leo, Piper, and Jason. I was supposed to be on guard duty with Piper, but Jason couldn't sleep and Leo was now some maniac bat that never went to sleep day or night. I walked around with my a sword in my hand. Percys was named Riptide. My was named absolutely nothing.
Lovely, right?
"God's," said Leo. The sound was muffled because he was up the second set of stairs, where the wheel was, and it was very windy, "Its so cold I think Festus is going to lose his fire ability for a month."
Now I had my sword out, and a few flurrys started floating through the air. Then Piper pailed and said to Leo, "Turn Festus on."
He gave her a confused look, "Why?"
"Because-" she started. But it was too late. I turned around in shock to look at the ice statue of Jason, both of his eyebrows raised, just as coldness swept over me. I stared in utter shock as Leo was shot skyward, and a beautiful girl rise above the whole mess. Piper stood with fear implanted on her face, but it passed as quickly as it had materialized. I couldn't hear, but it seemed as if she were pulling an Annabeth. The Elsa looking girl sneered a lot and Piper seemed to be directing her beady eyes to me. Minutes passed, and at some point Piper started a pretty awesome fight, which ended up in Jason face planting onto the floor, and then freezing.
Just as I watched Piper wake up Festus SOME MAGICAL WAY, another wind blasted us, making the ice underneath me slide across. The floor to the very front of the entire ship. Just as the wind stopped, Khione grabbed me by the shoulder and screamed, "REVENGE IS WHAT YOU SEEK!? WELL HERE IT IS!"
Frost shot through my body, down my spine, through my legs, which was seriously making my knees buckle. It went through in freezing pain for a few more seconds, then a blast of cold hit my chest making my head fall back as I started to pass out.
"NO!" Piper screamed. But Khione was already gone.
*Jason's P.O.V.*
I carried Emi quickly through the doorway to her bed. She was as cold as ice; her lips blue, her eyelashes covered in frost, her skin pale. It pained me to see her like that. Piper came running down the hall with a hot towel and steaming water as I set her down on the bed.
"Woah!" I said as Piper started putting her feet in the hot water, "won't she get burned?"
"I don't think so," she said, working fast, "She's a daughter of water, so I'm guessing she'll be fine."
By now Frank, Hazel, and Nico were in the doorway.
"What happened?" Hazel asked. Frank held her in a hug to warm her up.
"I'll explain in the morning," Piper said, shooing them out and shutting the door. Then she went back to her work. Emi still looked pale.
"You two are really good friends," I said, kneeling down beside her.
"I guess you could say that," she murmured, "Jason... Khione is saying that she needs someone to kiss her... and it can't be a god," at this she looked at the sun that had mysteriously replaced the moon on her wall, and it glowed a little less brightly, "so... it needs to be someone who she loves... and who loves her."
I sat there and took it all in. Emi doesn't like me. She barely ever talks to me. I couldn't possibly do this to Piper.
"Piper, I-"
"You love her," said Piper, forcing a smile, "and she loves you. And if we need a break up, that's what we'll do. Now hurry up, we had two minutes 'till midnight."
I looked into Pipers eyes, then pulled her into a hug, "If we're not a couple, you can replace Leo as best friend."
She laughed, and we both stood. One minute left.
I looked one last time at Piper, who nodded, then pulled a sleeping beauty.
It didn't matter that she was freezing cold. It didn't matter that she wasn't kissing back. None of that mattered, because I kissed Emi. A burst of warmth spread through my chest, and after a few seconds, she began to kiss back.
When we pulled apart, stared in awe. Her huge sea green eyes twinkled in the light of the fake stars, and she smiled.
"I thought you had the role of superman, not Prince Charming," she said.
"Now I have both," I responded, and our lips met again.
A/N: I have no clue who you guys would like her to stay with, or what relationship she should be in for the matter, so leave a comment for Jason or Apollo or some other guy in the story you think she should date.
