JASON

I walked out onto the deck of the Argo II and look for Reyna. Half way through my search I stop and remind my self to that Piper is my girlfriend, Reyna has a thing for Percy, and Reyna and I never even happened.

Then arms are wrapped around my waist line and I look down at them. "Hey, Pipes."

She let's go and because I could feel her death glare, I turn to her. "What?"

"'What?' No. The real question is who. And I think we both know who, now don't we."

"What are you talking about?"

"Who's on your mind, Jason Grace?"

Jason hesitated before speaking, knowing she was using charmspeak. "Percy. You. Reyna." He said that last part so, hopefully, Piper couldn't hear it. But of course, she did.

"Reyna, eh? How'd I guess it?"

Jason walked up to her and put his hands, gently, on her cheeks. "I don't love Reyna, Piper. I love you."

"You love me and only me?" Jason knew she was using charmspeak, and he was worried about what was going to come out of his mouth.

Jason was about to answer when Hazel walked out on deck. Piper stepped away from Jason, biting her bottom lip, and looked up at him.

Hazel smiled over at them and then walked to the part of the ship where Leo always stands. Jason sees Leo instantly smile as Hazel puts her put her arms around his neck.

I didn't smile, Jason thinks.

Piper must've been watching they're best friend and friend together, too, because she says, "They're so cute together." Then, Jason knows what to say, "Not as cute as us."

Piper first looks at him in suprise, then she grins and nods. She lets out a giggle as Reyna walks on deck.

Jason has seen Reyna without her toga and with normal clothes before, but it's been such a long time, that she had gotten curvier.

Now she wears a Camp Jupiter t-shirt and dark, skin-tight jeans that she brought with her. She's also wearing black leather boots that only go up to her shin. Her dark brown hair rests against the violet of her shirt, making her more beautiful then ever.

Stop it! I remind myself. Piper.

Jason looks back to Piper and smiles. "I like your shirt," he says, trying a lame attempt at a joke. She smiles, "Even though it's orange." "I love it because it's orange."

She grinned and then leaned upward. Then, their mouths are on one and other's. Jason wraps his arms around her waist as she clasps her hand around the back of his neck.

She then pulls back and leans her forehead against his chin. "We have an audience," she whispers. "So? Let them watch." "It's Reyna." Jason wanted to let go of Piper right then, but he knew that was stupid. "Let her watch. Can you blame her? I mean, we are perfect together."

Piper grinned and then looked at me again. She pecked my lips and pulled away. "Catch me if you can!" She then started to run around the deck.

Jason started to chase her.

REYNA

As soon as Jason started to chase Piper around, Reyna grinned at them. Yep, grinned, as if she was happy about it. She was not of course. Reyna wanted to be the one getting chased by Jason, although she'd never admit it.
