Caleo One-Shots (a Leo X Calypso One-Shot Series)

What is Love?

A/N: This One-shot also involves a character of another fandom which you'll know by the end. I did my best to be accurate on the characters so please forgive me if they seem a bit OOC. Still haven't finished Trials of Apollo but I'll get there (Eventually). So if it's also AU, I'm sorry. But I hope you enjoy this one-shot. (Another Author's Note at the end)

Rating: Teen (Slight swearing)

Story:

(? POV)

I love car trips, the empty road; the sound of the engine of my baby; my sweet tunes on the radio. The only thing missing is some company.

Of course, there's my brother but he's back at the hotel while I went to do some grocery shopping for tonight.

I know what you're thinking, "Why are we in a hotel?"

Well for starter, we DO have a home, it's in Kansas. We're just visiting the area for reasons. The reason we were in the neighborhood are some personal reasons. That's all I can say. Anyways, as I was driving down the road, I noticed someone. A young girl, around 16 years; holding a bag luggage and a backpack. She has long auburn hair and wearing a pink jacket.

She seems to be walking out here in the middle of nowhere.

Normally I don't pick up hitchhikers, hard to trust people nowadays.

But, there was something about this girl that felt... safe.

Weird... huh?

I figured, why the hell not? I mean, I still got time before I make it back to the hotel and prep for tonight. Plus, I can't let a girl be out in the middle of nowhere on her own.

I rolled down my window and yelled out, "Hey! You need a lift?"

The girl ignored me and kept walking. She seems like she has a lot on her mind; yet she seems like she's about to explode too.

"Look... kid. you're about many miles away from the nearest town. Just tell me where you going and I'll drop you off.

The girl sighed and then looked back at me.

"No offense, sir, But I'm having a really bad day right now," She said. "I missed my stop to Indianapolis, my wallet and phone gone missing and my feet are wet! So if you pull any funny business on me, I will not hesitate, understood?!"

I was just speechless right there. I know women are feisty, but this one has the look that says "I can kill monsters with just a look".

"O-okay than... look, just hop on in and I'll take you to your stop. Here," I took out my phone and gave it to her. "You can call your parents or legal guardians, or whoever the hell you're supposed to meet."

The girl sighed and hopped in, grabbing the phone to call someone.

Afterwards, I went and call my brother, telling that I'm gonna be late.

He didn't sound mad, just impatient. Of course he would be, we had something important to do tonight. Can't miss it.

"So," I started. "Why were you out there walking to Indianapolis?"

The girl sighed and answered, "I was on my way back to Band Camp."

Okay, I chuckled there. I mean, a pretty girl like her? In band camp? I'd kill to see her play the tuba. It would've been hilarious.

"Please tell me you played the tuba?"

The girl scoffed. "You sound just like him..."

"Him? Oh. let me guess... your boyfriend?"
