Lily's POV
We follow the storm spirit and I notice that there are now more than one; it is a large group of them. I turn my head, look at Jason, but he is staring at the spirits. Until he looks at me and catches me staring. "Enjoying the view, princess?"
I quickly look away before he can see the blush creeping onto my cheeks, not comprehending what he just called me, and notice what he was looking at: the spirits are showing images in their swirling masses. One of them being the giant from the ruins. They then show an image of a sleeping woman. "Leo..." Jason says.
"Yeah I see her too. Wait, did they just go into the drain?" Sure enough, the storm spirits fly into a sewage system. "Do we have to follow them still? I mean, into the drain?"
"Leo land us down in the park, we'll go on foot," I tell him, and he mumbles something about if the quest will be him and Piper doing what me and Jason tell them all the time, but flies to the ground.
When we reach the floor, we all get off Festus, and then I remember something. I pull Jason away from the others and ask him, "Did you just call me princess?"
"Yeah I did. Is there a problem?" He leans in closer, looking me in the eyes, "Princess?"
"Can you two not, please? We need to go," Leo speaks up, Jason smirks at me and walks off, and Piper looks at me, raising her eyebrows. "What was that about, Lily? Is there something going on between you two?"
"What? No we're just friends, don't be ridiculous."
"You forget, my mother is Aphrodite. I can tell these things. So, do you like him?"
"Piper, what part of 'just friends' do you not understand?"
"Hey, girls, are we going or what?" Leo interrupts our little argument, and we climb into the drain, out of the wind.
Jason's POV
"Yeah I did. Is there a problem?" I lean in closer, looking into her eyes, "Princess?"
"Can you two not, please? We need to go," Leo speaks up, and I walk off. Leo looks at me. "So, what was that?"
"It was nothing. We're just friends."
"In denial, more like it." I look at him, annoyed. "What? I see the way you look at her. It's obvious."
"Leo, please let it go. We're just friends, nothing more."
"Fine. Hey, girls, are we going or what?" and with that comment, we all climb into the drainpipe.
