A/N: this came to me very late at night so whatever. Consent is IMPORTANT y'all. I guess 14+ because there's mature things. Basically, if you don't like it, go read a different chapter.

Characters are above 21 in this chapter just fyi

"You okay Reyna?" Frank asked from across the office.

Reyna paused in the middle of the song she'd been humming, looking up from her work. "I'm fine Frank, why?"

"I don't know," Frank frowned thoughtfully, "you're just really smiley today."

"I'm just really happy is all." Reyna smiled and looked down at her desk.

They worked quietly for a few minutes more before Reyna couldn't hold the information in any longer.

"Thalia's coming home today." She muttered, already excited about seeing her girlfriend.

Thalia had been visiting Annabeth in New York and was finally returning back to Camp Jupiter. They were both out of college now; Thalia decided to relieve her duties as a Hunter when she and Reyna began to be serious about their relationship. While Reyna wasn't a Praetor anymore, she was a decorated war hero, so she had gotten to keep her villa instead of moving into New Rome. She also occasionally helped Frank and Hazel with Praetor things because of her experience. Mostly she had been enjoying her retirement and, well, Thalia.

"Really? That's so exciting, congrats! Don't worry, Hazel and Iwill make sure you two get plenty of alone time." Frank waggled his eyebrows, smiling at his own innuendo.

Reyna blushed and hid her face in her hands. "Fuck off Frank."

Frank just smiled more, leaning closer and laughing at the color spreading down Reyna's neck.

"Okay, gods, I'm leaving!" Reyna flicked him on his forehead. "I'll see you tomorrow!"

"Alrighty, have fun!" Frank called out after her.

Reyna flipped him off before slamming the door to the office.

What Frank had said held some truth, but it wasn't like she was going to mention it out loud to him. She hadn't seen her girlfriend in ten whole days, and that was quite long enough for Reyna. Gods, she just wanted to... to hold Thalia.
And kiss her. And make out. And do some decidedly not PG rated things with her. The mere thought of having Thalia in their bed tonight sent a jolt of heat down to her core.

Smiling to herself once more, she ran back to the villa and tried her best to not glance at the clock for when she would be back.

At 4:37 pm Reyna heard a knock on the villa door. After telling Aurum and Argentum to stand down, she opened the door to find Hazel standing on the other side.

"Guess who's baaaack..." she sang.

Reyna's eyes widened and she gestured toward the camp entrance. Hazel nodded, and Reyna took off running. Once she made it over the crest of the hill, she saw her.

Thalia, wearing ripped jeans and a tight black top, smiling at her from the camp entrance, her arms open and ready for Reyna to jump into them.

Reyna sprinted down the rest of the hill and launched herself into Thalia's awaiting arms, laughing as Thalia spun her around in a circle before setting her back on the ground.

"Hi Princess, you miss me?" Thalia muttered as she placed a kiss on the crown of Reyna's head.

Reyna buried her head into Thalias neck. "You can never leave for that long again, get it?" She kissed Thalia's collarbone twice and looked back up at her.

"I guess I'll just have to take you with me next time then, huh?" Thalia smiled, eyes crinkling at the corners.

Reyna rolled her eyes playfully. "Mhm, now we're talking." She gave Thalia a quick kiss and then grabbed one of Thalia's bags, her free hand intertwining with Thalia's. Thalia gave it a squeeze before they set off back to the villa.

Dinner was fantastic, and Reyna thanked Sally Jackson for that. Sally had insisted that Thalia take back some leftovers, including some of her famous blue cookies, which Reyna and Thalia polished off as their dessert.
