Your pov
Today was my 1 month anniversary with Connor Stoll....my boyfriend. I had to start my quest next week and I needed some time with him. For reasons unknown Piper, Leo, Jason, and Annabeth hadn't talked to me for the past month.
"Hey Connor!" I said, walking into the Hermes cabin.
"Hey y/n can we talk?"
I smiled nervously, "Y-yeah sure".
"We need to break up"
"What?! Is this a joke?" He shook his head. "Then why? I thought we were doing fine?"
"Your right. We were. I-I like someone else."
I felt tears in my eyes. This had to be some cruel joke.
"Who?"
"Miranda Gardener."
I choked back a sob, but I still smiled. I engulfed Connor in a hug and whispered something as running out, "I hope your happy".
Leo's pov
Today was my 1 month anniversary....of being rejected. Well I guess I was never really rejected since I never asked Y/n out but Connor Stoll, of course, had to ask her first.
Flashback
Today's the day. I was going to ask y/n out. "Hey Piper, can you help me? Im going to ask Y/n out and I want to look my best."
A bunch of Aphrodite girls overheard and pulled me inside, trying to dress me up.
"PIPER!" I heard someone call.
"Yeah what happened?" Piper opened the door, peeking her head out.
"I NEED HELP!" The person yelled.
"With what?! What happened?!" Piper said
"Ow!" one of the girls pulled my hair, and they all started to clamor.
"Leo?" The person peeked their head in revealing y/n. Piper slammed the door trying to hide me. "OWWWW! PIPER"
Her face turned red. "SORRY!" She yelled.
"PIPER I NEED HELP!!!!!" Y/n yelled.
"With what?"
"I have a date with Connor!" The cabin went quiet and y/n opened the door. I felt my face pale.
"LEO?!"
"H-hey y/n"
"Out please! I have a date with Connor Stoll!!!!" Y/n squealed pushing me out the door and I blushed at the contact.
"Wait but-"
"Nope!" and the door closed behind me.
End of flashback
I sat in Bunker 9, staring at the wall.
"Leo?" I heard the voice of Y/n.
I stayed in silence.
"Leo I know you're in here"
I sighed, "Yes I'm here"
She came into the light and I saw she was crying. "What happened?!"
"C-Connor broke up with me"
I rolled my eyes. "It's always about Connor isn't it?"
"Wh-what?" She said sniffling.
"It's always Connor this and Connor that."
"Leo?"
"Oh gods, you're so oblivious."
"WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?!"
"Nothing- I need to finish this, so I can go find Calypso"
Back to your pov
What was Leo talking about?
"Nothing- I need to finish this, so I can go find Calypso"
I took a breathe and read his mind. Chiron had been teaching me to control it.
Can she really be that oblivious? Why did she think I was in the Aphrodite cabin so long ago?
"L-Leo? Why were you in the Aphrodite cabin that day? The day Connor asked me out?" I said cautiously.
"Don't worry about it" he muttered, avoiding my eye contactl
"Leo, tell me why" I put will into my voice and he looked at me. I felt bad for charm-speaking my best friend, but I had to figure this out.
"I liked you"
I stood there in shock. He liked me?! Out of all people me? What about Calypso?
"Leo?"
He looked at me and I reached out to him, but he ran away. I ran after him, but he was gone. I checked in his cabin, but he wasn't there. I wiped away tears, and ran, but I had no one to run to. Annabeth, Piper, and Jason weren't talking to me. Leo was gone. Percy didn't know about my relationship. And Nico and Hazel were visiting the Underworld.
I ran back into the forest and looked for where Leo might be. After a while, I sat down and I drifted off to sleep.
In your dream:
"Hello?" I heard a voice a call
"Please can someone help me?" The voice was feminine. I saw the outline of someone familiar, but I couldn't figure out who it was.
"Quiet down" I heard a grumbling sound.
A whimper followed that, but then there was a grunt. "You smell as bad as you look" The girl said. Where do I know that voice from?
"Well soon you will not have to deal with it demigod. You will be part of my stew!"
"UGHH! I WOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN CAPTURED IF I WAS HEAD COUNSELOR INSTEAD OF STUPID MCLEAN!"
I finally figured out the voice. It was Drew. The ex-head counselor of the Aphrodite cabin, who loved to tease me....and she was about to become food for a giant!!
I woke up with a jolt. My first thought was of Drew. I had to go warn the others. My second thought was WHERE IN HADES AM I?!
