*Leo's Pov*
I woke up at 4 like always. I made my way up to above deck and saw Piper asleep on the floor. I laughed and tapped her shoulder.

She shot up and looked around, "Where's the monster!"

"Well if your calling me a monster." I frowned.

"Oh its just you." She sighed out of relief.

"Go to sleep beauty queen." I motioned towards the cabins.

"Thank you Leo, good night." She got up and slowly made her way over to the steps.

I headed up to Festus and stared out into the air. We were moving across a desert. It was hot out today. I really hate the heat. I overheat to easily.

I leaned against the railing. Do I tell Piper I have a crush on her ex boyfriend? What will she say? What if when I come out to everyone will they abandoned me? Will Jason think I'm weird? Will Piper be mad?

"You ok?" I heard someone ask. I jumped and turned to my left and saw Annabeth.

"I'm fine, why do you ask?" I looked back at the sky. The sun was poking through the horizon.

"I don't know, maybe because you left faster then you can say Leo and your just staring at nothing."

"Don't sass me Annabeth."

"I'll sass you all I want, now tell me what's on your mind, we have to have a clear mindset when we go into battle." She demanded.

"Why are you up?" I asked.

"Becaus- stop distracting me tell me what's up." She demanded again. I gulped.

"Annabeth I haven't even told Piper but I... I like Jason."

Annabeth laughed. "That was all you needed to share. Leo we aren't going to judge you based off who you like. We're all friends here."

"Thanks Annabeth." I said.

"We're going to have to wake everyone up, today's the day Leo." She gripped my shoulder.

I smiled. I knew what I would have to do.

Everyone woke up and we tried to make the best out of our last day aboard.

"Hey Leo, can I talk to you?" Piper asked.

"Yeah what's up beauty queen." I turned around.

"Leo you need to 100% honest with me."

"Ok..."

"Do you like Jason?"

I blinked and heat rose to my cheeks, "maybe."

"Good, after the war I'm setting you guys up on a date."

Jason came walking over.

"Hey guys." Jason waved.

"Hi Jason." I waved.

"Pipes why is Leo red?" Jason asked.

"How about you figure that out, I'm out lovebirds." She walked over to Hazel and Percy.

Jason's face was red.

It was silent for awhile. We were just staring at each other. Everyone cleared out. Weird.

"So uh... you ok?" Jason laughed nervously.

"I'm fine." I sqeeked.

"Your face says otherwise." He pointed out.

"Thank captain obvious." I rolled my eyes playfully. Jason laughed.

"Leo, I've been thinking lately and Piper already knows but I want you to know," He took a deep breath. "Leo I'm bi."

I blinked a few times. "C-cool I'm p-pan."

He laughed nervously again. "Thank gods you didn't judge."

"Why would I judge?" I laughed loosening up a bit.

"I don't know." He admitted.

I smiled up at him. Why is this man so tall? It's hot but frustrating at the same time!

"How come you are so tall?" I pouted.

"I was born that way." Jason bragged.

"I hate being short."

"I would love being short. Being short is so adorable and cute." He booped my nose.

"So you think I'm adorable now?" I snickered. That caused his face to go firetruck red.

"W-." He didn't finish. I smiled at him. "Oh fuck it." He leaned down and kissed me. Jason Grace was kissing Leo Valdez. I quickly came out of shock and kissed him back.

He pulled away and stared at me. I stared at him. This was going to be so painful for Jason.

"Jason come here." Frank called. He looked at me and I shooed him away. He jogged off towards Frank. I darted to my room.

When I got in there I wrote a little note.

I walked back out. Jason was talking with Frank so I slipped the note into his pocket hoping he won't lose it.
