Y/N's POV:

I left Florida a few days ago. I arrive back at camp. The others had left before me and arrived the day before me. "Hey. Guess who." I hear as I feel a pair of hands on my eyes. "Leo?". He removed his hands from my eyes and hugs me from behind. "Welcome back." he says. "Good to be back." I admit. "Where are Mark and Lily?" he ask. "They're staying in Florida for a couple more days." a say. "Come on let's get your stuff to your cabin." he says helping me. We get the stuff to Cabin 3. "Percy?" I call. Percy appears out of somewhere. "Hey sis." he says. "See ya." says Leo leaving. Percy helps me unpack and we head out. I head to archery and start prating because I want to get better to challenge Mark. Just then some Ares kid started to flirt with me. "Hey you're pretty good. But I could give you some lessons." he winked. "Sorry but no thanks." I say stepping back. He checks me out. "You sure it could be fun." he says. I roll my eyes. I was awkward and uncomfortable. I felt a pair of arms warp around my waist from behind. "Hey love." I hear a voice whisper in my ear. It was clearly Leo. I look up. "What are you you doing here." I ask. He winks. "Sorry she's taken." Leo says to the guy. "Who says?" presses the guy. "I do. You better leave." I say. The guy rolls his eyes but laves. "Your acting was good." I say looking up at him. "It wasn't acting mi amor." he smirks. I blush. "L-Leo shut up!" I say. "You're adorable." he teases. I elbow him. "Ow. Maybe I deserved that." he says. I laugh and kiss his cheek. "See you later. Maybe at the strawberry fields." I say. "A picnic?" he asks and I nod. I head off to find Piper but get stopped by campers asking questions. "Are you and Valdez dating?" asks an Aphrodite girl. I nod. 'Kinda a lie since we didn't make it official.' I thought to myself. "Do you really like him or are you just using him for attention?" asked a Hephaestus kid. "Water and fire? That's not a good match." says an Ares kid. "Did you two kiss yet?" asks a Aphrodite kid. Just then someone grabbed my arm. "Leave her alone." says Piper. The other campers leave. "Thanks guys." I say. "Any time." Annie says. "Come on let's go to the lake." Pipes says. We start walking to the lake. "So have you started dating?" Piper asks. "It's not official." I admit. "But..." Annie says. "I guess... it's probably maybe official?" I say. "And you both like each other." Pipes says. I nod. "So when are you going to make it official?" asks Pipes. "Well we're going on a picnic date later." I say. "Don't spend all your time with him. I nod. "No of course I'll have time for you guys." I say. We sit by the la.e "So about Tom..." Annie says. "We... we were friends. I developed a crush on him. He asks me to prom and I accepted there we admitted we liked each other and we got to tighter. A few months later he cheated on me." I say. "Well Leo's a huge step up." Pipes says. "Yeah I know." I say as I feel pair of hands on my face. "Leo?" I say. "Our picnic date's ready." he says taking his hands off my face. We head to the strawberry fields and I see two strawberry baskets on the picnic blanket. "Wanna pick strawberries?" he asks. "Leo this is amazing!" I say as I get my basket. We start picking strawberries. "One for me. one for the basket." he hums. I clear my throat and raise an eyebrow. He laughs and popped one into my mouth. I was picking strawberries when- "You know strawberries taste good." he says. "I know." I say. Then he kisses me and after he pulls away I was left blushing. "Was that really necessary?" I ask. "No but it tasted sweet." he teases. I throw a strawberry at him. "Hey!" he laughs and roll his eyes. After we pick strawberries we sit down on the picnic blanket. "Another thing I didn't know about the famous Leo Valdez. He can cook." I teases. "There's a lot you haven't found out about me." laughs Leo. "In time I will." I say. "Maybe you won't." he teases. "I will." I shot back. "Suuure." he says. He lays down his head in my lap. "You're beautiful." he whispers. I scrunch my nose smiling. "Thank you." I mutter. He lifts his hand to stroke my cheek. I lean down and peck his lips. He blushes a bit of fire appearing  on his nose. He wafts it away. "You sure you're not a daughter of Hermes?" he begins. I lean down and kiss him. "No chess pick up lines." I laugh. He pulls me down to lie down next to him. "Cloud watching." he explains. "Okay that's a rabbit." I say. "No it's clearly a kangaroo." he says. "How is it a kangaroo? It doesn't look anything like one." I say. We go back and forth for a while. "Sorry to interrupt your little moment but it's time the campfire. Also Leo it's your turn." Percy says coming over. We head to the camp fire and Leo get's up on stage and grabs the mic. "We go together. Better than birds of a feather, you and me. We change the weather, yeah. I'm feeling heat in December when you're 'round me." he starts. I sit down next to Piper and Annie. "Oh no. No Leo." I mutter. "I've been dancing on top of cars and stumbling out of bars. I follow you through the dark, can't get enough. You're the medicine and the pain, the tattoo inside my brain. And, baby, you know it's obvious. I'm a sucker for you." he continues. Piper snicker and Annie nudges me. I hide my face inside my hands. Then Jason and Percy join him. "You say the word and I'll go anywhere blindly. I'm a sucker for you, yeah. Any road you take, you know that you'll find me. I'm a sucker for all the subliminal things. No one knows about you (about you), about you (about you). And you're making the typical me. Break my typical rules. It's true, I'm a sucker for you, yeah." Percy sings. Of course I look at Annie who's rolling her eyes smiling.  "Don't complicate it, yeah. 'Cause I know you and you know everything about me. I can't remember. All of the nights I don't remember when you're 'round me. (Oh, yeah, yeah)." Jason continues. Pipes is cheering him on while blushing. "I've been dancing on top of cars and stumbling out of bars. I follow you through the dark, can't get enough. You're the medicine and the pain, the tattoo inside my brain. And, baby, you know it's obvious. I'm a sucker for you." Leo sings winking at me and I feel my face heat up. "You say the word and I'll go anywhere blindly. I'm a sucker for you, yeah. Any road you take, you know that you'll find me. I'm a sucker for all the subliminal things. No one knows about you (about you), about you (about you). And you're making the typical me. Break my typical rules. It's true, I'm a sucker for you, yeah." Leo sings. Me, Pipes and Annie are just having a great time at this point.  "I've been dancing on top of cars and stumbling out of bars. I follow you through the dark, can't get enough. You're the medicine and the pain, the tattoo inside my brain. And, baby, you know it's obvious. I'm a sucker for you, yeah." All three sing. "You say the word and I'll go anywhere blindly. I'm a sucker for you, yeah. Any road you take, you know that you'll find me. I'm a sucker for all the subliminal things. No one knows about you (about you), about you (about you). And you're making the typical me. Break my typical rules. It's true, I'm a sucker for you." Leo sings. "I'm a sucker for you." he sings finishing off. We were blushing like crazy. "Leo! I say. He smirks. "Yes?" he asks. "Just- why?!" I say. "You got to admit it was cute." says Jason winking at Piper who laughs. "Riptide's more your song Seaweed brain." Annie says. "Yeah, yeah Wise Girl." he laughs. "Well answer my question Leo." I say. "Because I can do what I want." he says kissing my hand. I laugh. "I'm not a princess." I say. "You're a daughter of Poseidon. Yes you are." he says. "Just because I'm a daughter of Poseidon doesn't mean I'm a princess." I protest. "Daughter of Poseidon or not you're a princess in my eyes." he says. I blush and smile. "Okay that was adorable." says Piper. Me and Leo blush forgetting there are other people. "Okay lovebirds it's time you two head to your cabin and sleep." laughs Percy as he leads me to the cabin. "So you and Leo?" Percy asks. I nod. "He's the best." I mutter. "You're lovestruck." teases Percy. "Yeah. I guess I am." I agree.
