Finding A Soulmate( HoO characters)

Jason

Dear Diary,

It had been about a week since I had almost gotten ran over by Piper's car, and she still wouldn't talk to me. The thing was, I knew why she was so nervous when she found out it was me that she crashed into. It all started during a normal weekday two years ago....

:Flashback:

I was sitting in my room playing video games when my sister came in. She had brought a friend with her from school to help her with homework, although she was in my grade. (Piper has advanced classes) I heard Thalia talking, but through the headphones, I could only hear murmuring and I could only catch a few words.

I heard the words, "Piper, Jason, homework, and cookies." But once I told them I couldn't hear them through the headphones, they went out of my room and I continued playing.

About an hour later, I went outside to eat. I mean, a boy has to eat. So when I went into the kitchen and saw a girl in front of the door way to the kitchen, I asked her in a polite tone, "Excuse me."

See, I don't usually meet Thalia's friends. But when she brings her friends over, I am not allowed to talk to them. But with this girl, I couldn't talk, even without the restrictions. She was jaw-dropping gorgeous. The way her hair fell just over her shoulders, the way her eyes changed colors seemingly every five seconds. I mean, I could go on, but then my sister came back from the bathroom.

"Jason? Is that really you? Have you actually gone out of your rabbit hole you've been in all day?" Thalia asked jokingly.

Piper giggled and my heart beat faster. Wow ,that laugh. I could listen to it all day if I could...

But sadly, the laughing stopped and Thalia asked another question." No, really. Jason Grace, why have you gone out of your bedroom?"

"Well, I- um.....well-" I stuttered out. For some reason, I couldn't speak in front of that beautiful of a girl.

"Well, we will be in Thalia's room doing homework," Piper stated, and I had lovey- dovey thoughts all over again. If she's my age and she's in Piper's class, that must mean she's in honors. Gosh, she must be so smart, and to go along with her prettiness, that makes my dream girl. I wonder-

"Uh, are you okay?" Said a confused Piper when my day dreaming made me stare at her lovingly. "Do we need to take you to the hospital or something...?"

"Uh, no I'm fine thanks for asking, " I replied back,but, not speaking clearly, I sounded like "Uh, noimfinethanksforasking. Then, I ran to my room and told my friends I'd be offline for a while. I went to sleep to clear my head, but all I could dream about is one girl in particular, one who's name starts with a P.

I had no idea when these thoughts came from, so I asked my best friend at the time, a boy name Don. Most people cause him Don the Faun because Don was addicted to learning about Roman culture, bet that is besides the point. Our text went something like this:

(Jason in bold and Don in underlined and bold!)

I have a problem.

What?! You're interrupting my time away from you. It's so peaceful and quiet here.

It's about a girl.

OMG! Finally, YOU HAVE A CRUSH!

Yeah, yeah, yeah. What do I do now?

Well, I say go up to her and tell her, but you know how THAT worked out with Kimmy last week.

I laughed at the memory of Don getting punched in the face when trying to ask her out on a date.

But, I really think you should get to know her first. Who knows? She might even like you by the end of all this.

I thanked Don, but I also stopped texting him. I had some flirting to do.... But first I need to figure out a way to speak to her.
