"Leo...I thought that after I left Ogygia, I would no longer be immortal. But that is not the case. I am still here, alive, while you are dying. I'm so sorry, Leo. I love you. I love you so much." Calypso sobbed, hugging the still frame of the former Leo Valdez.
"I hid my coke in the freezer, Sunshine." Leo laughed and sat up, still coughing.
"Whatever. Do you think I'll get the part?" Calypso asked.
"Duh. That was great acting! Sorry I'm sick. Otherwise, I would come and watch." Leo gave her a kiss.
"I'm going now. Don't drink that coke."
"Very funny."
~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~
The phone rang, causing Leo to yelp.
"Crap. Now where is that phone..." Leo fumbled around the blankets, feeling for the phone.
"There it is." Leo grabbed the phone, which had landed on the ground.
"Hello? Who is it?"
"Sir, this is the director. Your wife collapsed." the voice answered.
"WHAT? I'm on my way." Leo hung up and managed to get up.
~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~
"I'm here. What happened to Calypso?" Leo ran out of his car, sickness forgotten.
"We don't know. She collapsed. We sent her to the hospital." One of the people told him nervously.
"Where is the hospital?" Leo demanded.
"Right next to this building."
Leo ran out the door as fast as he could muster, and barged into the hospital. A nurse stopped him.
"What's the hurry?" she asked. "And you also have to sign in. Who are you looking for?"
"Calypso Valdez. I'm her husband." Leo spoke frantically.
"Of course." she dropped her voice. "And I also gave her some ambrosia. She's immortal, correct?"
Leo nodded, stunned.
"Daughter of Apollo. Follow me." the nurse gestured towards the door.
"Calypso?" Leo whispered once he saw her.
She was unconscious, laying on the hospital bed. Leo slowly walked closer. Calypso was gripped something in her hand.
"What's that?" Leo asked.
The nurse shrugged. "Take a look at it. Might be important."
She picked up the note and handed it to him.
Leo's breath hitched as he read it.
Leo. I'm sorry. On Ogygia, I was immortal. But in the real world, my age caught up with me, and therefore, I'm probably dead when you read this. I'm so sorry. I love you.
"I...I...I can't..." Leo began to sob.
He fell to the ground. "Calypso..." he cried.
And he lay there, crying, until he, like Calypso, breathed his last.

I don't know...but it was evil...so...*evil laugh*
Yes, I'm turning the previous chapter into a book. It's not up yet, but soon, hopefully :) I'm calling it Erased.
