This is the first part of what I consider a chapter divided in two. Please forgive me for not updating these days. I'll update the second part really soon. GOSH! I love Percy Jackson! All Rights to Riordan unfortunately :b
Jason was furious. No. Not only that. He wanted to squeeze whatever he found in his way—Percy's neck, for example. He was tired, annoyed, he felt lonely, and why not? He was jealous. A lot.
That Greek moron had stolen him everything he had worked his entire life for.
Piper looked at him "You okay?"
"Sure" He lied.
Piper said "Good." and then turned to Percy to ask him more about his achievements. Jason rolled his eyes and walked at the back, feeling misunderstood and lonely.
All of them— including Reyna which made him uncomfortable— sat at the table of the Fifth Cohort. Reyna and Piper were sitting next to Jason, but they were eager to hear about Percy’s adventures. Annabeth didn't want to talk about what had happened after Percy had saved Olympus. Or the Empire State Building. Never Mind.
“Oh, COME ON! Tell me what happened back at Olympus!” Piper said. Percy instantly started talking, a little too quickly. He seemed confused, but he started “After Kronos was gone, the gods entered the Throne room—” Annabeth punched him hard in the arm and whispered.
“That was supposed to be our secret Seaweed Brain!” but Percy continued. Strangely, he had a shocked expression on his face. But he didn’t stop talking. “They offered us we could have any gift we wanted. Annabeth was named the official architect of Olympus. Zeus told me he knew what I would ask. And he said what he was going to give me was the biggest gift of all.”
“SEAWEED BRAIN! STOP. NOW.” She was acting furious, looking cautiously at every roman camper, as if she was afraid they’d hear what Percy was about to say. He looked like he wanted to stop too, but he couldn’t. “He offered me imm—”
Jason noticed Percy was speaking about something private against his will. Suddenly it drawn on him: Piper had used her charm speak without notice. She seemed to get to the same conclusion and hit her forehead with her hand and shouted “Stop!” Percy’s voice trailed off and he sighed, relieved.
“So sorry!” Piper said “I used my Charm speak by mistake! You don’t have to say anything personal”
Annabeth glanced at her, angry. “You should watch out your powers, then.”
Percy looked at her in awe “Are you a charmspeaker? That explains a lot.”
“What?”
“hum. That you are a daughter of Aphrodite, that’s all”
“Aha. And?”
“Well… you kindda remind me of someone”
“Who?”
“Silena Beauregard. She was the Aphrodite cabin counselor during the Titan War.”
“Oh.”
Silence was made. Then Percy’s number one fan spoke “So!” Leo said “I heard you did like a whole lot of things in here. Man! You're a legend! I mean, nobody could stop talking about you back in Camp Half-Blood. I mean, we got back and it was like: Percy did this, Percy did that. Man you're awesome. Everybody was worried about you. Aphrodite kids cried for you! Can you teach me to do that?"
Percy laughed "man, you don't want to. Most of the time I get annoyed because of the attention. It makes me feel so uncomfortable... Plus. There are many other heroes at Camp. I'm just me. The stupid guy who spoils everything." He looked at Annabeth. "And I'm Annabeth's boyfriend. That's my biggest accomlishment" Annabeth smiled and looked lovingly at Percy.
At that, Jason saw annoyed Piper sighed with pleasure watching the couple. He could even tell Reyna's eyes had shone like they had when Percy and Reyna had come to free them from the prison. Jason felt a twinge of pain in the heart. Now he did feel lonely. And he realized something else that made him feel uneasy. He missed Reyna. He had missed her since he had remembered her. And even before. Jason had felt something was missing in his insides. And now Percy Jackson was stealing her heart. As confused as he was between Piper and Reyna, Jason noticed he was longing to kiss Reyna, like he should have done a long time ago.
Suddenly something moved in his insides. He stood up abruptly and took Reyna by the arm. Everybody turned to them. Both Piper and Reyna looked concerned. Jason said
"I need to have a word with you. Now." And he pulled her up the table towards the lake.
