Hey! Not gonna waste any time! Love you guys!! I listen to Sleeping With Sirens while writing my stories. 😂 I love them though. ⚓️
Piper's POV
After Nico and I finish our hug, and Luke stops feeling awkward. Nico speaks. "I'll leave you two alone. It looks like I interrupted something." He winks.
"Shut up!!"
"Nah," he says while walking out the door, closing it behind him.
"So, you wanna wonder around?" I nod, smiling at Luke's offer. He opens the door for me, and what I see makes my mouth hang open. Vast fields, tons of huge houses, kids playing. Then a section that's not a sunny, and no one is really happy. Then, there's Tartarus. Which I'd rather not explain in detail. Other than that it's black, no light. We walk over to what looks like a park. There are families. These people had their life and they fulfilled it. They got their babies, the future and love. True love. Instead of the brunette with her black-haired partner, I see Jason and I. Watching our kids as they wonder and explore a world they were never able to meet. I feel a stinging in my nose, and a tightening in my throat. Tears well up in my eyes. Don't cry. Don't cry. Don't. Cry. I look over at Luke, trying not to cry by biting my lip. It doesn't really work, as I feel tears streaking my face. REALLY? Now? I can't believe I feel this much pressure. I don't usually crack like this. But the fact that Jason and I had a perfectly good life, and the giant had to go and (A/N SWEARING) fuck it up by trying to kill Jay. Then I had to go make it worse by trying to be the hero. I'm an idiot. Not to mention, I think Luke is falling for me, which means if I find a way to leave, I'll leave him crushed, but if I stay, I'll crush Jason. I kind of feel like mom wasn't even trying to hurt me. She didn't know. Oh shit. It was my stupid brother. Eros, or Cupid. The other god of love. I'm pretty sure he hates me to begin with, and this is the perfect way to destroy my life. I should to prove him wrong. Correction, I need to prove him wrong. He's a stuck up jerk who needs to be taught a lesson. And I'm the teacher. Luke looks worried. He obviously noticed that I was crying. "What's wrong Piper?"
"It's nothing. Just hormones?"
"Ummmm.... Sure...." I look back to the children playing, glad he didn't pressure me anymore. I see a little boy, maybe 5 or 6, running towards us. I look around to see if there is anyone around that he could be running to. Nope. Just us. He stops right in front of me and says breathlessly "Hi! I'm Corey. I think you're pretty. What's your name?" I blush at the comment and tell him my name Is Piper. We launch into conversation about where my name came from, why its my name, how old I am, when I ask if his parents are here too. Here as in dead.... "Nope," he says still smiling. Luke seems like he's gonna say something when I decide to pick up little Corey and take him for a walk. We wonder around Elsyiam for a few hours and decide that since his parents are there too, that he gets to be my "son". Upon his inquiry on who his daddy will be, I say my boyfriend. When I leave, he's coming with me. Wether Hades likes it or not. He can't just wonder around here forever! I just hope Jason is okay with it. Or that the camp would accept him. "What are your parents names?"
"I don't really know their full names, but my mommy's name was Sara, and my daddy's name was Diona? Maybe it was Dionsis..."
"You mean... Dionysus?" The camp would! He's a demigod! So it's not impossible. That just makes me that much more motivated to get out of this place. I want a life. I want to love Jason again.
"Yeah! That's it!" He also told me his birthday is November 3rd. And he's four. So, the little blonde boy who walked up to me is four. His birthday is November 3rd, and his name is Corey. It's funny that he kind of looks like Jason.... With his blonde hair. But like me with his somewhat tan skin... People wouldn't think for a second that he isn't really our son. But he'll feel like it for sure. He already does. And before we know it, Corey - who decided to not walk, but have a piggy back ride- and I are back to the park. After the long walk and our talk, where I learned about him to the point where it feels like he's really my baby, now it's dark. Then I realize what I did. "Great," I mutter.
"What's wrong, Mommy?"
"Nothing baby, mommy just remembered something very irresponsible that she did." These are the kind of moments where I wonder sometimes how people can really put up with me....

A/N
I think I've set a new record for myself of how much I wrote! I'm sorry it's a crappy chapter. I hope this didn't seem like a filler. It wasn't meant to be. But it's late, and I'm tired. I just kind of promised myself that I would update for y'all.
Anyways
Love y'all. Stay beautiful (or handsome depending on what you are more comfortable with 💖)
-Bye 😘😴
P.S.
I like the "what you are more comfortable with" better that "what gender you are" because the latter seems too specific for people who aren't just female, or just male. 😊
