Hey, sorry that last chapter sucked and was short. Didn't really know what to write, so hopefully this one is better than the last one.

This chapter is what happens after the Blood of Olympus finishes. Not edited, sorry.

Leo's POV:

Flying on Festus with Calypso was better than anything I've done. After flying what seemed like forever, we had reached land. I turn to look at Calypso. With her hair blowing all over the place, she's gorgeous.

"I'm gonna fly down, and see where we are." I say and she nods. I turn back around and look at Festus.

"Hey, buddy, I need you to find a safe place to land." He replies with a series of creaks, letting me know that he sees a place. "Okay, let's go down." And then we start going down.

The best part about going down, besides the feeling of my stomach dropping, was that Calypso was hugging me from behind, tightly. Soon we are our the ground and I am helping her down. She looks around with an awed expression. "You okay Sunshine?" She nods, as if she's unable to talk.

As someone passes by I stop him and ask him the date, and what town we were in.

Turns out that we were in New York and it's only been a day since we left Ogygia. "Good news Sunshine, we only have to travel a bit more to geet to Camp." I say proudly and she smiles.

"Thanks Leo." She hugs me and I laugh at how tight it is. "For what? For letting you fall for me?" I smirk and pulls away to punch me lightly. "No, for saving me, now let's get to Camp." She runs to Festus who happily creaks at her.

"C'mon, take us to Camp." I tell him and he creaks excitedly. "I know buddy, me too." Festus lifts off into the air and then we start flying to Camp. We pass by the forest and soon I see Thalia's tree. "We're almost there, get ready to answer some questions." I tell Calypso and she nods. I can tell people noticed us by the way there was a crowd forming. We land gently and I help Calypso down.

I turn to face the crowd. "Hello people of Earth! It is I, the ghost of Leo Valdez!" I greet and instantly I see Percy, Annabeth, Hazel, Frank, Jason, Piper, some blonde haired guy, Nico, and the whole camp look at me with wide eyes.

"What's up guys?" I ask Jason and Piper happily. Behind me, Calypso scoots closer to me, reminding me that she doesn't know anyone. "Oh sorry guys, this is Calypso. Calypso, this is Annabeth, Percy, Hazel, Frank, Jason, Piper, some random blonde haired guy I don't know, and Nico." I state, and Piper comes forward and hugs me.

"Leo, we thougth you were dead." She says calmly and I hug her back. "I know Pipe, and I'm sorrry I had to do that, but c'mon we saved the world." I say and she pulls back. She turns to Calypso and holds out her hand. "I'm Piper, Leo's friend." Calypso nods, smiles and takes Piper's hand. "Calypso."

Like that switches a light bulb, the seven and the blonde hair guy by Nico, who introduced himself as Will,cone forward and greet us.

I am talking to Jason when I see Percy and Calypso talking. I more closer to them discreetly and hear them.

"Um, hi Calypso." She gives him a small smile. "Hi Percy." He fidgets a little bit. "I'm sorry the gods didn't-" she cuts him off.

"Don't worry about it. They're the gods. Bound to forget something. Or in my case someone." she shrugs and he nods awkwardly. "So, you and Leo?" And she grins. "Yup, I'd tell you more if Valdez wasn't eavesdropping." They look at me and I casually look away quickly. "Leo." She complains and I grin.

"Yeah Sunshine?" I ask and Percy blinks at the nickname. "I'll talk to you guys later, got to talk with Annabeth." He mumbles, walking off. "What was that about?" she asks and I shrug. "Who knows, after all he is Seaweed Brain."

Percy's POV

Calypso is with Leo?

I get that I lost all right to be with her when I left Ogygia, and I have Annabeth, but still. Leo?

It's just weird.

"Hey Seaweed Brain." I smile at the blonde haired grey eyed beauty. "Hey Wise Girl." She takes my hand and we walk aimlessly around camp. "What's on your mind?" I shrug, not really wanting to talk to her about Calypso.  

"C'mon, I know something's bothering you." She says and I sigh. "Well, it's just Calypso is with Leo." I say and she raises an eyebrow. "Why does that bother you?" When I don't reply right away, she looks hurt. "It doesn't bother me, but I just didn't expect Leo to be with her." I try to make her feel better, but that hurt doesn't leave her eyes. 

"Do...do you have feelings for her?" Annabeth looks down and her voice breaks at the end of the question. I look at her wide eyed.  "Of course not, you're the only one I could love."  She looks up at me with tears in her eyes. 

She hugs me and I wrap my arms around her.  

Piper's POV 

After the excitement of Leo coming back from the dead died down, we had met Calypso. She is perfect for Leo! She keeps him in line, and doesn't feed his ego. "Jason, let's leave Calypso and Leo to settle in."  I wink at her and she blushes slightly. Jason smiles, and takes my hand. 

We walk around until we get to his cabin. "Don't you think they're perfect for each other?" I ask smiling and he nods. "Well at least Leo has someone now."  He say, I nod. 

He hugs me from behind and kisses my neck. I lean into him and sigh happily. "Do you have any plans for tonight Pipes?" He asks and I shake my head no. "Well, you do now, I'll come get you after dinner." I nod my head and kiss him. 

As we hang out in his cabin I realize that life can't get much better than this. With my boyfriend, best friend, and my new friends, I can't wait to live it.
