Music sang around them, and Piper's hands were warm in hers as they swung around the empty cabin. Their feet danced and their hips swayed.
Annabeth laughed as Piper crossed their arms, hands sliding over shoulders.
As they spun, eyes locked to each other, Annabeth felt her heart stir. Ever since she'd met Piper, she could feel something growing inside of her, a warmth she could only describe as…
Love?
"You're quite the dancer, 'Beth." Piper said, a smile playing on her lips. "We should do this more often."
Wrapping one arm around Piper's waist, Annabeth pulled her in close. "Dance, or…"
Her eyes slid down to Piper's lips and Piper grinned.
"Well I don't see why we can't do both."
Their lips met and the warmth in Annabeth's chest grew and grew. Piper's lips were soft against her own and she pulled her in ever closer. There wasn't an inch of space between them, and Annabeth considered the logistics of staying like this forever.
Piper buried her hands in Annabeth's honey blonde curls, deepening the kiss. Their hearts pounded in unison, and when finally they pulled apart, they were both breathing heavy, as if they'd just gone ten rounds with an empousi.
Annabeth pressed her forehead to Piper's, closing her eyes. "Can we stay here?"
Piper tucked her hair behind her ear, her hand gently cupping Annabeth's face. "We could, but my siblings will be back any minute and well-"
Annabeth sighed. "I want nothing less than to be caught like this by a bunch of Aphrodite kids."
"They're a handful." Piper agreed, her voice tinged with laughter. "We could go see what Percy and Jason are up to. They were going to practice high dives from pegasus back over the lake. That is bound to end in disaster."
