Chapter 59

🔱The Bachelorette & The Bachelor🔱
[A Few Weeks Later]
MATURE CONTENT
I really appreciate everything the girls have done to make this the best bachelorette party ever, but I think they might have gone a little bit overboard. I guess it's hard to throw a bachelorette party for someone who was supposed to stay dead in the nineteen forties. But I'm just not used to penis lollipops and a penis shaped cake. To be fair though, Piper did ask her sisters for help, not knowing what disaster awaited. I'd never even seen a penis before Sex Ed in freshman year and boy, did I blush. I'm a little less "innocent minded" now, I guess, but I think that's a good thing.
I've never been able to fit perfectly into this time line because of how many things have changed. Don't get me wrong I still blush every time I even look at one of those stupid lollipop candies, but I'm more used to it now...I think. I feel Piper grab my shoulder and I turn around. I see Annabeth, Reyna, and Thalia, on the couch in my cabin, looking between the emotions of being rather uncomfortable and finding the humor in all of this. At least they're catching up with Reyna.
I try to smile at Piper, "Hey."
"I-am-so sorry, for all of this," she sighs. "I told them to go easy," she smacks her forehead tiredly.
"Yea, um, it's ok, I'm sure your sisters mean well," I clear my throat with a small smile.
"How about we all ditch this place and leave my sisters before the stripper arrives," she winks. I look at her confused.
"What's a stripper?" I ask. Her eyes widen.
"Um, it's nothing, let's just get you out of here," she grits her teeth nervously.
Annabeth, Piper, Thalia, and even Reyna, all laugh and talk as we head down to the shore line. I take my shoes off and stick my toes in the lapping waves as they softly skim the sand.
"Are you exited?" Annabeth asks with a smile. I nod and smile back before looking at Frank's mother's ring..well, I guess it's now my ring. I'm still not used to the thin silver band around my finger.
"I am. It's just a bit of a shock. I never expected to get married this young...well, I guess I did, but back then. Now I know I have more time. You know, cause back then we didn't have a lot of medical knowledge," I realize I'm rambling as I look at the girl's concerned faces, I sigh. "I've wanted Frank for so long that now that I truly have him I fear that I'll wake up one morning without him. Like he'll change his mind or something even more tragic. Bad luck seems to follow me everywhere, what if it starts effecting the one I love?" I say sadly, looking out at the water.
Annabeth walks toward me before giving me a tight hug. I hug her back whole heartedly. Then Piper joins in, then Thalia, and lastly Reyna.
"You deserve love, Hazel," Reyna says quietly. "Let yourself have this," she nods once in her usual seriousness. The others nod. I look up as the girls tower over me and smile sweetly. I smile back. I'm lucky to have such friends in this life.

"I've never tried alcohol before," I say for the second time as Percy, Jason, Leo, and Nico all stare at me with confusion, shock, or laughter.
"Not even a sip of beer?" Percy asks. I shake my head.
"What a pure little bean you are," Luke laughs. I glare at him.
"What about wine?" Nico asks. Again I shake my head. Is it really that bad that I don't know what alcohol is like? I've seen what it can do to people and I don't ever want to be like that, especially in front of Hazel. They all must have read my expression because Percy pats me on the back.
