I only had time to do Percy & Jason's, but you can expect the remaining boys to get one eventually.

Plot: A special day with your valentine.

•••

Percy Jackson:

I sighed as I watched boy after boy confessed their feelings to a girl and ask them to be their valentine. I fidgeted with the bottom of my Camp Half-Blood shirt as I hid in the shadows of the woods.

I tucked a strand of hair behind my ear as I watched Alex and Grace hug excitedly. They were both my best friends and Alex had finally confessed his feelings towards Grace. Undoubtedly, they would spend Valentine's Day together and I'd end up third-wheeling.

I dazed off thinking wistfully of what it might feel like to actually have a valentine. I'd spent so many Valentine' Days alone, I could only dare to dream of what it would be like. I obviously wouldn't expect something too flashy, but the romantic inside of me also expected something sweet and unexpected.

"Y/n." I jumped at the sound of a low voice coming from behind me. I whipped around quickly to see the tall figure of a green-eyed boy standing in the shadows. I felt my shoulders relax slightly since the son of Poseidon wasn't exactly a threat to me.

"Hey, Jackson." I greeted flashing him a bright smile. Although I couldn't exactly see his face in the dim light, I could've sworn he was blushing. He slowly approached me and took my hand it to his much larger one. I stared down at our intertwined hands in curiosity. I looked up at him for an explanation.

He cleared his throat before looking me directly in the eye. I felt myself looking him up and down. His dark hair was just as messy and windswept as ever. His sea-green eyes held a determined twinkle and he was wearing his Camp Half-Blood t-shirt with a pair of dark jeans. Once I had taken in his appearance, I raised my eyes once more to meet his gaze.

"Would you like to go on a walk with me?" He asked uncertainly dragging one of his hands through his already tousled hair. I searched his eyes and I understood that his request was genuine. I slowly nodded and I offered him a comforting smile which he easily reciprocated.

At first, I was uncertain as to where Percy was leading me but eventually, I recognized the familiar path to the lake. Knowing Percy was the son of Poseidon and everything, I was curious as to what he was planning. I gave him a questioning look but he just smiled down at me and continued walking.

Eventually, we came to the docks and he pulled me close to his chest. He brushed a piece of my hair behind my ear and looked down nervously at me. His eyes searching mine as if waiting for me to run away from him. I don't say anything and let him search for whatever he was looking for. After a few minutes, he finally nodded.

"Y/n, do you trust me?" He whispered softly as though if he talked too loudly he might scare me off. I nodded slowly and pulled away from his arms. I saw Percy look away in disappointment but he looked back to me.

Before I could realize what was happening a giant hand formed with water dragged Percy and me into the cold lake. I tried to scream but all that came out of my mouth was a stream of bubbles. I looked around frantically for Percy, he was the son of Poseidon, he would surely get me out of this terrible situation.

I suddenly felt a pair of hands grab my waist into a firm embrace. I turned around frantically to see Percy trying to calm me down. I felt my air running out when Percy and I were suddenly enveloped into a large air bubble. I took a huge gulp of air as I sat on the floor of the air bubble.
