A Different Kind of Hunting {Open}

[Deleted]

The blonde haired praetor of Camp Jupiter walked through the street of one of the neighborhoods on the outside of New Rome, luckily within walking distance of the forum so it was easily accessible if a certain wife needed to go and take potential children to get something to eat. Not that he had either of those things, yet, but it was a possibility for the future. Though part of him was fighting with the option of rather to stay in New Rome at all or to go back out and restart his acting career. He still had a year and a half or so in the legion anyways and since he was due to be married in less than a month he figured that maybe Clare and him could have a little place of their own. Rhia and Josh were able to that, granted Rhia was dishonorably discharged and had a kid. Maybe that had something to do with Josh being able to live outside of his cohort barrack. Oh well, he'll probably ask Remus for special permission or something if possible.

Of course he wasn't going to buy anything today, just looking or house hunting as they call it. If he was about to actually buy a house he would have Clare there with him. He was just daydreaming also he was worried about not impressing Clare or fulfilling her wihes. She was the light in his life, which was something extremely special for a child of the sun. Yet it was there. He looked at the house magazine in his hand and looked at the vacant hosue lot in front of him. Three bedrooms, two bath and a big yard. It was like a house you would find in suburban America that would promote the so-called American dream. As great as that sounded he had a feeling Clare would want something closer to water so that she could teach the kids to swim and practice their water powers. It was something nice to picture that caused him to smile. He looked at the neighboring house and saw children practicing with toy swords as their mom read a book on the porch. To think, one day he was going to have a life like that. Quiet and at peace with a family. To someone who had never had a traditional family ever in his life it was something the praetor was looking forward to.

Kyle Lucian O´Brian Kyle wasn't really sure why was he in New rome. He had nothing else to go to up there. when he was a boy, he grew up there, he knew New rome quite well and was all he knew. Then he got to camp at the proper age, His mother still had lived in their apartment in New rome, so from time to time he went to visit her. Then he met his Annie, and they started looking for a place to live in New Rome when their camp time was over. But tragedy always hit the ones that shouldn't be hit by it. He bought a small apartment it was close to the university because both of them were going to keep studying. Two bedrooms a bathroom, a small dining room and a kitchenette, perfect to start a new life with the one that one love the most in life. But Annie died in the Second Titan War, Kyle couldn't bare it to be even in Camp or New rome without her. So he just left after his time was over. He wrote to his mother and no one else. then the third war came and hit camp again, So he came back to help. there he saw the small apartment again and closed it one more time. He visited his mother frecuently and his old friend, Robin. but... Damn! he didn't want to blame the gods or anyone, not even his foolish aunt who freed Saturn one more time. His mother got a heart attack, she died. robin was killed... was the first to die in that last stupid War! so to Kyle it wasn't comprenhensible to know why he was still there in New rome?! He went to the place where Robin used to live and showered the Juniper, also put several nutrients into the land so she grew strong and beautiful as robin desired. That was it!! he promised Robin to take care of the little nymph. she had been a daughter for him and Kit, so he would adopt her if anyone could adopt a nymph, then when she grew up, maybe he could simply go again into the world. He walked back to Camp or so he thought he was doing it. But he wasn't, he walked to the forum, maybe because annie used to love that place. He lifted his eyes a second before he crashed against someone. "oh... excuse me." he said and looked at the praetor. "Jason... long time no see!" he had been centurion when Jason was a pompus kid in the second cohort. Life and death and everything between

Jason nearly jumped out of his skin and his reflexes almost went into action as he turned swiftly to face whoever had bumped into him when his adrenaline fight or flight was filled with happiness a the face of his former centurion. "Kyle! Long time no see definitely. How have you been? What brings you down here?" Jason said eager to start conversation with his old friend. Kyle was someone Jason looked up to when it came to medicine. Sure, Jason had Apollos knack for medicine but nothing compared to the actual founder of medicine who was also Apollos son but he was lucky enough to become a god. Therefore when Jason first started out in the infirmary and Kyle told Jason he was doing something wrong or if doing something a different way would work better Jason definitely listened. Not only that but Kyle had also been Jasons centurion before Jason got the job and prior to Jason even becoming praetor.

Thought this did cause Jason to go through the guest list for his and Clares wedding rapidly in his head. Did he remember to invite Kyle? Honestly Jason had been busy with paperwork and trying to find Clare and all the drama during late fall and early winter that Jason wasn't even sure if they have sent out invitations. For gods sake the wedding was in about a month! It was going to be a great one too. On a pier outside of camp, Jason still needed to talk to Apollo but Neptune promised they would have protection during the ceremony due to the immense amount of demigods that will be there. Jason had been praying to all the gods who were invited to add protection too. He was fairly certain that Venus was going to do the same and Jason thinks even Pluto will since his daughter will be in attendance since she and Clare are best friends. In all honesty the only thing Jason still needed to plan out were transportation for the guests to and from camp. He had been looking at the prices of charter buses. They were comfortable and didn't require anyone using powers so that they wouldn't end up exhausted and sleep through the ceremony. Jason figured two buses would do the trick and that the best man and maid of honor could be in charge of order on the buses. Works perfectly. Gods, he didn't care if he wasn't the bride he was just as excited about his upcoming wedding as he was sure she was. At least he hoped she was and wasn't getting cold feet.

Kyle Lucian O´Brian Kyle had avoided to be around old friends for some time by then. he felt that he wouldn't be fun to be with, besides he hated to be asked if he was okay about annie's death. so when he got the invitation to the wedding of his old cohort mate, he didn't know if he would be present at it or not. Would it be good for him to go? would it be nice for them if he was there? He felt that He would be a sour man, that he wouldn't be able to be happy for them in the happiest day of their lives! so... would it be wise to go to the wedding? He had tried to write an apology letter to Jason, tell him the reasons he had to not be there for him as a friend, former centurion and former Medic trainer. then he had to run into him that day. looking at his old friend, he realized that he didn't have any good real reasons to not be in the wedding, all the reasons were selfish and not being there would be selfish as well, He couldn't ruin his friend's happiness with his personal pain and sour feelings. He simply smiled at his friend and when he asked what he was doing in New rome he decided to reply as always in a honest and sincere way. "Well, I came to check on my mom's apartment, and the one I had already bought for Annie and myself." he knew it could be kind of uncomfortable to talk about it, but he had decided also to stop feeling pity for himself. Yes, his fiancé and love of his life died, she was with child when that happened, so he lost both the mother and child in war. But he had been mourning them for already 3 years, almost 4. so maybe it was enough. He knew Annie, and if she knew he had been mourning like a ghost in pain, then she would have come back and slap him just to make him wake up. That didn't mean he was going to forget her over the night, but he was going to allowed his heart to feel again, he was going to try to live once more and be active in the life of his friends and family members. "and you?? how is everything going for the wedding? ready for the big day?" Life and death and everything between

Jason didn't know exactly how to respond when his old friends departed beloved was mentioned. It was an odd topic. He didn't mean to make things seem awkward or hesitant in the air. Jason just didn't know how to respond. He tried breifly to imagine what it must be like for Kyle, how Jason would have felt if he had lost Clare after all they had planned for their future. He would be devastated. Probably retreat into himself and not want to talk to anyone for weeks. Now that he thought about it, it made sense then why Remus had acted the way he had after the past war. Geesh, now he felt bad for egging his coworker on about trying to move on and meet new people so quickly. Oh well, if he were to apologize for it now it would seem awkward, best let the past remain in the past.

"Well, always good to check up on places I guess." Such an awkward response that he wanted to mentally slap himself. The former child actor couldn't even fake being natural in front of his old role model. Luckily he didn't have to stand there and mentally beat himself up for long as Kyle started conversation on another topic, one that Jason could eagerly get into. His wedding to his beloved Clare Bear.

"Yeah, I think so. Hard to believe it's coming up so fast. I just hope it's all Clare hoped for. They always say that girls daydream about their wedding since they're kids. Hard to make childhood dreams come true, ya knoww?" Jason started. But really, he wanted everything to be perfect for her. She was his world. His everything. He wanted to grow old with her and have a family. He didn't care if it sounded insane for an eighteen, almost nineteen year old to think that way. Sure, maybe for mortals it might be frowned upon to marry so young but they were demigods. Any day could be their last and well, he supposed that's why they all got married and created families so young. He didn't really care. He always believed that so as long as you really love them and can picture being with them through all their highs and lows then you should do what your gut tells you. And well, his gut was telling him to marry Clare Fontaine.
