Percy Jackson Short Stories

Thalia x Piper

Piper ran into school faster than she thought she could run. She reached her locker and shoved her stuff into it, grabbing her English book and pencil case.

A clattering noise behind her made her turn around. Thalia was running through the doors, late as well.
"Hey." Piper greeted Thalia, smiling at the other girl.
"Hi Pipes." Thalia responded. Aside from her dad, Thalia was the only person who could call her Pipes.

"We are so late to English." Thalia said, stating the obvious. Piper nodded her head.
"I could probably charmspeak Mrs Waygood into letting us off though." Piper said, knowing Mrs Waygood was soooo easy to charmspeak.
"I have a better idea actually." Thalia exclaimed, looking pleased with herself. Piper rolled her eyes and asked what her 'brilliant' idea was.

It was to bunk off school today, because she'd just found a secret place that she was dying to show Piper.
"Not happening." Piper said adamantly.

~30 minute time skip~

Thalia smirked as she dragged Piper along the ground in a ball of electricity.

Thalia had found a beautiful waterfall on the weekend, a secret one hidden in the woods near her house.

Thalia blindfolded Piper and took her along a hidden ledge that led behind the waterfall. She then un blindfolded Piper, and prepared herself for what she was about to say.

Thalia had been planning this ever since she found the waterfall. She was going to somehow get Piper alone to confess to her.

"There's something I need to tell you"
Both teenagers started at the same time. Thalia laughed while Piper grinned uncomfortably. To have extra time to prepare herself, Thalia let Piper go first. What Piper said next shocked Thalia.

"I've been thinking the last few weeks, well I've been thinking of a lot of things, but the thing I've been thinking about the most is you. You may not, well you probably don't, feel the same way, but I've grown to like you. Not as in friend way, but more, as in I would like to date you possibly. If you don't feel the same way, that's fine, I understand. We could just be friends and nothing more."

Thalia stared at Piper, letting that sink into her brain. Then she leaned across to Piper and kissed her slowly on the lips, shutting her eyes.

Thalia broke the kiss about 20 seconds later, and asked a simple question, which got a simple answer.

"Pipes, will you be my girlfriend?"

"Yes."
