Leo: (Gods, finally)

The seven, excluding Percy and Jason, along with Nico were sitting out in the sun, not really in the mood for anything. Nico just sat there skulking, and refused to tell us what happened in his cabin, blushing furiously when we asked. 'What really happened, Neeks? Did Percy try to do something that you don't want to talk about?' I spoke softly to him. His eyes shot up in alarm. 'W- What? No, Leo. O- o- of course n- not.' And started blushing again. I had the feeling something was wrong, but I couldn't quite place a finger on it. 

Also, I could sense that Nico wasn't lying, and there were no bad feelings. Like, I mean that Nico wasn't lying, he most probably meant it, but his flushed face led me to think about whatever could have happened at the cabin. 

Now I don't really like to, But I started to think that something happened between Percy and Nico. I thought, and I thought. 

I thought.

And I thought

And thought

And thought.

Okay I'm tired. This thinking isn't gonna do me any good. Like I always say, It's better to not think at all. Better to just go without a plan. So, what ever happened to Jason and Percy, you ask? Wellllllll, apparently, Jason almost drowned, and in the process of drowning, Percy reversed their roles of being the Superman and dived in like a hero- Oh look! A pretty butterfly! Sorry, where was I again? Don't blame me, blame the ADHD! Anyways, forget the pretty butterfly. So, Percy dived in like a hero, and saved Jason, but being the seaweed brain that he is, forgot to dry himself while trying to help Jason, and then passed out.

Anyways, we sat and continued talking. I usually don't observe this much, but Nico was acting seriously strange. Whenever we talk about what could have happened at the Zeus' cabin, Nico looked furious. So I made a very stupid and impulsive move. I said, 'Hey Neeks? What's up? Do you know what happened between Percy and Jason in cabin 1? Cuz you seem like you do.... ' His eye twitched dangerously and he growled, advancing toward me. 'You have no right what-so-ever to ask me that. I do know, buddy. But you better keep your distance from me. Cuz I am the reason that "Percy tried to kill himself", aren't I? what if I turn you sucidal as well?' He scowled and shadow travelled away. I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding. Nico sure can be quite scary when he wants to. I shuddered lightly, when I suddenly remembered there were the seven just standing there. Excluding Percy and Jason of course.

Piper sighed. 'It's fine, Leo. At least you tried.' 'Tried, my foot. He avoids me more than Percy avoids going into the sky. I shouldn't have  lashed out at him. But I - I was s.. s.. scared. Seeing P.. P.. Percy so vul.. Vul.. Vulnerable was just-' I never realized I started crying. Heck, it wasn't even worth crying about, but I felt guilt wash over me. I began sobbing into someone's shoulder, not caring who it was.

Calypso's soothing voice called out. 'Hey, hey, hey. It'll be fine. Don't worry, Leo. We're here for you, and each other. Well make it or of this mess. Promise.' I smiled and hugged her. 'I love you so much, Calypso. I don't know what would I ever do without you. Thanks for sticking by me.' She smiled back and put her arms around my shoulders. The rest of the gang encircled us in a giant hug. We just sat there, hugging and whispering sweet words of comfort to each other what felt like an eternity.
