The sun was shinning, Reflecting off the surface of the water and the boy right under the surface, barely making ripples on the surface of the water. The boy dove, heading down to where the water Nymphs usually layed but by passed them, touching down on the bottom and kicking back up, almost making it to the surface before something swam by.
Kurtis looked at the Water nymph, smiling as he winked at her, kicking for the surface. He was running out of air, and fast. Kurtis felt a hand around his leg, and frowned, looking down and seeing them grab his leg, pulling him down. That was kind of pissing him off.
The boy's eyes Lit up a little, and then the light hit the water Nymphs. It only happened in water where his Hypnosis power was spread out a little. "Let go," he said, using the last of his air. The Nymphs got a dazed look, and did as he said. Kurtis turned back up, heading for the surface and Broke the surface, gulping down air.
"That one was close," he said, giving a tired smile, then looked down, seeing his pants floating about 4 meters away. "What.....jeez," he said, swimming over, glad he was in the middle of the lake. No need to get all the girls panties wet just looking at him. Sometimes it was so hard being him, but he wouldn't trade any moment of it.
Kurtis grabbed his trunks, slipping them on under the water and frowning, looking at the water Nymphs under the water, rolling his eyes at them. yeah, they were cute but jeez, As much as he liked being a glorified sex object to woman, he wasn't in the mood. Okay, that was a lie. He was, but there was what happened between him and jessie recently and there was hope again, so he couldn't be whoring around if he wanted to get back with her.
Kurtis rolled onto his back, looking at the sky from floating in the water. He was watching the clouds rolling across the sky, letting his body rest for a second and his eyes. It wasn't that hard keeping his eyes open underwater, but using his powers like that under the water was harder. Still, could be worse. He could be stuck in a classroom.

Jessi was fighting the hangover from Hades. She was drinking almost every night, but not as much since her confrontation with her ex. Last night was an exception since there was a party at the Dionysus cabin... and the Dionysus kids knew how to throw one heck of a party. So Jessi was fighting the pounding headache and cotton mouth since she woke up. She took medicine for it and it was slowly getting better, but not quick enough. It wasn't long before after that she decided to go out and get some fresh air.
She slipped on her favorite sweatshirt she recently recovered from the Aphrodite cabin over her ex's clothes. Yes, she still wore his shirt and boxers even though they were still not together. He did give her permission to keep and wear them and it didn't hurt that they were very comfy to sleep in.
So she stumbled out of her cabin and decided to walk around camp a little bit. She really wasn't controlling her feet, but it wasn't long before she found herself at the beach. Jessi plopped down towards the edge of the water as she squinted out into the distance. The sun was dancing on the water and it was not helping Jessi's headache one bit. Even though she was very close to going back to her cabin, she noticed something on the water.
Her ex boyfriend. She inwardly groaned when she saw him. Her mind was debating whether or not she should acknowledge him or not. However, she felt like she had to say something since the rock climbing wall incident. "Hey!" she called out to him before wincing slightly at the sound of her voice. "Don't you ever put on a shirt?"

Kurtis grabbed his pants again, thinking "The one time I want my pants on around a pretty girl," he undid the knot and retied it tight enough that no amount of tugging would take them off. It was kind of tight though. No comments from the peanut gallery.
The son of love looked up as he heard his ex's voice ring up over the water, smirking and looking over, seeing her on the shore.
(JUST PRETEND HE'S ON THE BEACH. I DIDN'T REALIZE WHERE I POSTED THIS)
"Just when your around!" he shouted back, Smiling and riding the water inwards. He spread his arms, able to stand and started walking, tilting his head to get the water out of his ears. He had to wiggle his finger in there for a second, banging the other side of head for a moment before his ear was clear.
"But seriously, do you expect me to swim with my shirt?" He asked, pointing to his clothes in the sand. He shifted his weight to his left side, crossing his arms over his chest, looking her over.
Honestly, she didn't look that good. She looked like she was still suffering a hang over. It wasn't that good a look, but she still had that edge that looked hot as hell. Just....diminished. It was weird. "You okay? Your not still drinking are you?" He asked. Kurtis had thought to make another move with her, seeing as the reason that they had broke up in the first place was Easily doing physical therapy in the arena with the ares kids again, there was a little hope. Though, seeing as he had been doing the protective older twin and not letting him out of his sight, even the first night camping in the infirmary with him, connecting his his ex had taken back seat sadly. Course, as now the bruises on his arms showed, Kenji forced him to see that he wasn't frail. "You are aren't you?" He knew it "wasn't his concern" and he was probably about to hear it to.

After calling out to her ex, Jessi reached up and started rubbing the temples of her forehead as she closed her eyes. Her headache kept pounding and she was wondering if any of the medicines she took were going to kick in soon. Then again, she doubt they would really make a difference, because being around Kurtis naturally gave her a bigger headache.
She had half a mind to leave and go elsewhere to recover when she opened her eyes to see her ex getting out of the water. Her breath caught in her chest a bit. His mother might have been the goddess of love, but Jessi swore sometimes Kurtis was really a sex god... and it might have been true considering how many times they were in each other's bed.
But then Kurtis had to go and open his stupid mouth and Jessi groaned. "And what's it to ya if I still am?" she challenged him, but the sound of her own voice in her pounding head made her wince again. She groaned as she closed her eyes once more and massaged her temples more as she muttered about stupid hangovers and stupid ex-boyfriends.

"I'm just concerned, that's all. I get that you drink, but you knew what moderation meant when we were dating. That or I knew when to take the bottle away from you," He came back at to her, smiling as she was rubbing her head. He heard what she said and chuckled from it. He had heard worse in his time. Some girls just didn't know how to take a joke, or waking up in bed with a stranger. They weren't big on eye contact in the morning and he was dodging lamps thrown at him. Figuratively.
Kurtis raised an eye brow at her through, asking," I would ask what's wrong, but I think I know. How much did you drink last night? Or, how much do you remember?" He asked, serious about it. His shifted his feet in the sand, getting ready to run or take a punch if she was going to attack. She never did have the best of tempers with a hang over.

I'm just concerned, that's all. Jessi stopped listening to everything else he was saying as she stopped rubbing her temples. She took deep breaths while convincing herself not to do something too stupid, especially since the hangover would possibly make it worse.
She glared up at him as she huffed a bit. "And why do you care?" she snapped at him as she pulled her hands down from her temples and gripped at the sand. "You're no longer my boyfriend, so that's no longer on your list of duties... and even when you were my boyfriend, you sucked." She huffed a bit as she took a handful of sand and threw it at him. "Pushing me out of your life when your brother was gone... Well he's back now and I hope you two are effing happy together." She rolled her eyes as she pushed herself up from the sand to stand up and glare at him.

She rolled her eyes as she pushed herself up from the sand to stand up and glare at him.
Kurtis feels Several emotions going through his body when she asked that question. The one that takes the cake though in anger, and that whole heartenly Shocked him. "Why am I so angry?" He wondered, Listening and flexing his fingers into fists and out.
"You," He said, Controlling his voice and turning, leaning down into his clothes and grabbing his sunglasses, slipping them on for her sake. He turned, looking her in the eyes and said," Are the most frustrating chick I've ever met." He is barely controlling his voice's tone, the frustration easily heard there. "Even if we aren't, I don't like seeing you wasted out of your mind and smelling worse then the guy's gym locker when we actually talk."
Kurtis took a step back, looking away and hiding the hurt inside, like any macho man would do. "And you never complained when we woke up the next day." He couldn't leave well enough alone. He smirked and said," Sorry. Look, I want to make it up, okay? No more fighting, No more arguing. I'm sorry. Just....when Kenji got stabbed.....," Kurtis sighed, rubbing between his eyes. He didn't have much experience with apologizing to girls (Well, legitimately anyways.) "Can we start over, please?" He finally just says it. It takes a lot of swallowing of his pride, but he does. After being a player for so long, he's the one asking for the girl back. That is different. Ironic to.

Jessi rolled her eyes as she put her hands on her hips as she could tell that Kurtis was getting frustrated with her, especially when he reached down to grab his sunglasses. "What?" she snapped at him as she leaned in to get into his face. "Now you're too cool for me? You have to wear sunglasses around me? First you're my mother and now you're too cool. Make up your damn mind!" She sighed loudly as she pushed her hair out of her face. She had a feeling his powers generated from his eyes and he was protecting her from whatever emotions were running through him, but Jessi just felt like picking a fight.
She crossed her arms across her chest as she glared him down as he took a step away from her. Jessi was only a few moments away from storming away from him... well, it would have been more of a stumble, but she was quickly getting over her hangover. Her head wasn't hurting her as it was a couple of moments ago. Kurtis was struggling for words and Jessi wasn't going to hear any of it until he finally blurted it out. "Can we start over, please?" Jessi was taken aback as her arms unfolded slightly. She blinked a couple of times.
Jessi was used to holding grudges and keeping anger. She was still after those harpies who killed her parents. Forgiveness wasn't something that came easily to her, especially with her Zelus parentage. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath before she sighed out, "Yes... we can start over." She wouldn't admit it to him now, but she was getting lonely without him around all the time.

Kurtis smiled when she said yes. She looked like she was about to punch him for a moment there. He Stepped forward, and in an instant decision, wrapped his arms around her in a hug, holding her against his bare chest. It felt good just to hold her again, his face near her's. He wasn't going for a kiss yet. Well, not unless she wanted it. Plus, She still smelt of Booze.
"Look," Kurtis said, pulling away after a moment. "I need to tell you something. And you can't get mad." He Looked around real quick though, making sure no one was with in ear shot. After a moment, and giving a look to the water nymph that was clearly eavesdropping ("Great. Now the whole camp will know were back together. Well, Blessing and curse." he thought) and then took his glasses off.
"You know how I said that I don't really have charm speak?" He asked, looking at her right below her eyes. "Well, it kind of the truth and not. See, How most charm speakers of my cabin have it in their voice...Mine is in my eyes. If I look someone in the eye, I can pretty much get them to do what I want. It's stronger then most, but a lot more limited. Kenji said it's more focused so it's stronger. That's why I don't really look you in the eye much." he closed his eyes then, putting the sun glassed back on and looking at her. "Any form of glasses though seem to block it though." Kurtis rolled his shoulders, looking and feeling very uncomfortable. This was one of his most guarded secrets, but starting a relationship again... he knew it was gonna come out sooner or later, and experience always showed that sooner was better then later. He signed, sucking it up and just getting up with it, reaching out and taking her hand. He just laid that part of his soul bare, so his eyes were searching for her reaction to it.

Jessi barely opened her eyes before Kurtis's arms wrapped around her and held her close. She smiled softly as she hugged him back slightly. Gods, she missed the feel of his arms and chest, but he wasn't going to get away that easily with a simple hug. If they were going to try this again, Kurtis still needed to repay for all those times he was being a horrible boyfriend to her.
"What?" she asked as Kurtis pulled away from their embrace with the pretense that he needed to tell her something. "You're not gay, are you? I knew it was too good to be true that there was a straight boy in the Aphrodite cabin..." She waited for him to drop the bomb, but it wasn't the bomb she was waiting for.
"What?" she cried out as she reached out to swipe his glasses away from his face so she could look at him, but he managed to grab her hand and hold it. She glared down at their grasp. "That explains so much." She hissed a bit as she glanced up at him. That was how he got her on that first day. That was how he took her to that club and almost got her in his bed. Those stupid, sexy eyes of his. "And you thought now was a good time to tell me? After you used your eyes on me so many times? You are an idiot."

Kurtis winced, and grabbed her hand before she could remove the glasses, looking away. It was his secret, but he figured she would react like that. "Would have rather learned latter, and questioned everything beyond this, or learned now, so you can know?" The question had an edge to it, but that said edge seemed blunted somewhat as he snorted, letting go of her arm.
"Actually, I've only ever used my eyes on you once. Trust me, it was tempting through, but I only ever used them outside the mess hall that first day to get a chance with you. Even then, with spaghetti all over you, I found you interesting." He gave a smile from behind the glasses. He actually thought this one through.
"Just think. If I had been, do you think that you would have broke up with me? Or would even be asking for a chance back and explaining this with glasses on? Just ask Kenji. He's about the only one immune to my gaze? How about you made me wait over 3 weeks before we had sex?" He gives her his usual cocky grin. That one that he knew looked sexy in a mirror, Like it held a winning hand.
"Look, I swear to you, On the river styx, that I never used my power on you but the one time to get a date with you. I never used it after that. The rest of what we did was on us as teenagers." Kurtis gave her a smile, knowing if that didn't get her to believe him, he didn't know what will. He wasn't going to use his eyes on her. That was defeat the whole point of this, but he was sourly tempted. "I wanted to get to know you Jessie, not some puppet my eyes made, okay? And my brother's might be fairies but your looking at a 100 percent hunk of man made for the ladies. Or lady, in this case." Just because the relationship was fresh again, it wasn't gonna change who he was. Like his father and mother, Flirting was in his DNA.

Jessi was taking deep, ragged breathes as she tried to control her anger. She didn't want Kurtis acting out in jealousy just because she was completely blindsided and enraged by this news. She pressed her lips together as she heard him out. He even swore on the River Styx, which made her curse underneath her breath. He was making a valid argument. There was no way she could rip his defense into shreds.
"Fine," she breathed out as she tried to let go of her anger and any negative emotion she had toward his confession. "I believe you." She blinked a couple of times as she narrowed her eyes at him. "But if I see you using your powers on someone else," she threatened him as she leaned in closer to him. "There isn't going to be a start over, okay?" Then she leaned in to briefly kiss him on the lips. Damn. She missed his taste and the feel of his lips against hers. "You're lucky," she muttered to him as she pulled away. "You're lucky you're sexy and make good arguments. Now can we get out of here before the nymphs spread more rumors about us?"

"You're lucky," she muttered to him as she pulled away. "You're lucky you're sexy and make good arguments. Now can we get out of here before the nymphs spread more rumors about us?"
"I swear I won't and have no taken advantage of any of the woman in this camp. I might have made someone, I don't know, Put a paint bomb under their own bed. No names of course." He smiled, knowing that she had asked him if he knew who did that to that annoying ares kid. Kurtis had him do it to himself. Only to funny. Course, the look she gives him shuts him up. Damn it. What do the really tough woman have to be the hottest?
Course, then that answer is given as she locks lips with him. He even closed his eyes Behind his sunglasses for a moment as she tasted her lips on his, that mixture of Envy and want that was just to hot, with a little booze on her breath. Sadly, kind of the usually. That was always the thing that got to him, but that was for the future.
When She said he was lucky, he smiled again and said," I'm with you aren't I?" For once, he decided not to push it. Yeah, right. "That last part though isn't luck. It's all natural sexiness." Though, he steps up next to her and takes her hand, leaning in and giving her a kiss of his own, looking her in the eye from behind the sunglasses. "Let them." That was the old Kurtis that She knew. It was also the final Nail the the coffin that the depressed, moody and sad Kurtis. He was back.

Jessi raised her eyebrows when Kurtis mentioned about using his charmspeak to trick someone. She was doing her best not to condone his behavior, but she couldn't help but chuckle under her breath and shake her head. "Fine. I just don't want to be hearing you had other girls in your bed besides me."
But his lips found hers again and she kissed him back, leaning in a bit towards him during the kiss. His lips pulled away far too quickly from hers, but she couldn't help but smirk. The old Kurtis was back, her Kurtis. Not the one that moped and complained while his brother was gone. Things were looking up. "Okay," she muttered back to him as she leaned in to kiss him again. She couldn't get enough of his lips, especially since she gone so long without them.

"I swear it won't happen. I told you I was a reformed man. One woman man." he said after their lips parted, smiling at her. "Come on. I smell like salt and you smell like a liquor store." He wrapper his arm around her's and joined his hand with hers, and stopped, and looked at the waves, giving her a wicked smile.
"The water isn't bad actually," he said, and then noticed exactly what she was wearing. "Why are you wearing my boxers outside?"
Kurtis didn't need much to help him Pull Jessie into the water with him, the salt water up to their hips now. A small laugh escaped his lips as he knelt down, grabbing some water and dumping it on her head out of the blue, laughing playfully. "And that was one of my good shirts to." Yeah, playful, but bad.
