A Big Mistake: A jiper fanfiction

Piper's POV

I woke up with my throat feeling dry and eyes red. The sun was shining happily and brightly, quite in contrast to my mood. I can't believe what I had done yesterday. I felt it was the best thing to do, but what if I just broke the rope connecting me to happiness?

I shrugged these thoughts of and, seeing that I'm the first one up, took a quick shower. I through on my CHB T-shirt and some frayed shorts. I slipped on my sandles and walked out of the Cabin. I looked at my watch. There were 10 minutes till breakfast.

I walked to the shore. I was about to sit when I saw Percy and Annabeth, not more that 5 metres away. They seemed angry and upset, but happy to have each other's company. I felt I pang in my chest. I wondered, if we had tried a little more then would we have been like them?

Suddenly I realised the root to all my problems. I compared my relationship to Percy and Annabeth's. I always thought they had the perfect relationship. But after yesterday, I realised that every relationship was perfect in its own way.

I felt like crying all over again. Why couldn't I have had this realisation before?

I heard the horn signal breakfast. I ran towards the pavilion to see Lacy was already leading the Cabin to pavilion. I joined them and made my way towards the table. I sat down and looked around and noticed one person was missing.

Jason.

Jason's POV

I zipped up the bag. I had made a big decision. But at this point it seemed right. I shouldered the bag and looked at the huge statue of my father. My father may be creepy, but at some points, he was a beacon of courage.

I was well aware that I missed breakfast. But it was my plan. No one would see me slip away. Except the people I told.

I walked towards the Pine tree. I stood there for a moment and stroked the dragon.

Suddenly a familiar sound broke the silence.

"Jason!"

I reluctantly faced the person who ruined my life. The person I used to love.
