Summary:

After the events of The Trident of Poseidon (You can find the story in my profile), Leo and Calypso go out for a date night.

Story:

"Are you sure you're going to be okay watching over Zoe?" Leo asked Sam.

"Don't worry Leo, I did babysitting before. Zoe and I are going to be fine. You and Calypso go have fun, okay?" Sam assures Leo that Zoe, their daughter, will be well looked after. Samantha Stacy, Daughter of Athena, was brought into the family after what happened to her father and having no relatives in New York. She wanted to continue going to school with Estelle so Leo and Calypso decided to be her foster parents. Since then, Sam was learning to settle in with them.

Before Leo could say anything else, Calypso came down the stairs with her dress on. Leo was awestruck at what she was wearing. A red dress with a single strap on it; a leather belt wrapped around her waist; wearing red high heels to match her dress and let her hair down instead of her normal braided ponytail.

To Leo, she looked like a goddess. Considering that she is ACTUALLY a goddess, he wasn't wrong.

"Ready?" Calypso asked.

Leo was tongue-twisted as he stared at his wife. All he could was nod.

"Wow, Calypso, you look amazing!" Sam said.

"Thanks, Sam. You sure you'll be alright watching Zoe tonight?"

"Yes, Calypso!" Sam said, "Ugh, don't worry you guys, Zoe and I will be okay. You guys have fun on date night, okay?"

Leo and Calypso haven't had a date night since before Zoe was born. When she came to their world, the main focus was for Zoe's health and happiness. And now that Sam is a part of this family and their business is stable, they felt it was time to have some time alone with each other.

"Alright, just call us if you need anything, okay?" Calypso replied as she pushed her husband out the door, who's still awestruck at her appearance. She even used a bit of makeup, despite looking gorgeous without it.

And so, Leo and Calypso went out for date night. Leo managed to make a reservation for a fancy dinner place down in Manhattan. As they arrived and took their seats, Calypso spoke.
"I must say, I'm impressed you managed to make a reservation here. I heard it's nearly impossible."

Leo smirked, "Only the best for my beautiful wife."

"Flattery won't save you tonight, Leo Valdez," Calypso said, clearly amused by Leo's attempted charms.

The two chuckles as the waiter arrived to ask for their orders.

Afterwards, they talked about events that occurred recently.

"It's crazy how much has changed last week," Calypso said.

"Tell me about it. I don't think any of us ever thought that Estelle would have spider powers*."

"And now she has a part-time job protecting New York and Olympus; Sam is moving in with us..."

"And don't forget about your latest invention, Mr. Stark," Calypso teased Leo. "Since when did you get the time to make that?" Calypso was referring to Leo's latest invention which was a suit of armor similar to that of Iron Man. The difference is that Leo used enchanted metal such as Celestial Bronze and Royal Gold, along with enchantments such as Nordic Runes and Hieroglyphics. The suit works well but it did have some flaws that Leo will need to adjust in the future. What can I say? Leo Valdez is a really good mechanic.
