A Different Reality (Percy Jackson Fanfiction)

Chp 68 - Leo's POV

SATURDAY

"Leoni, are you busy?"

"No, Ryan. What's up?"

"Someone is asking for you. No need to put that panic face, it's a guy"

Good, it's not that crazy girl.

***

"Percy, what are you doing here?"

"I came here to buy some flowers"

Does he realize we don't have any flowers in here?

"Hum... I guess I have some spare pieces that can be glued to look like a flower"

"I'll buy flowers on the flowershop at the other side of street, Leo"

"Oh. So you're here to ask me my favorites? I'm honoured!"

"I just came here to say hi to you. I'm buying flowers for Annabeth"

"Snif. First Jason. Now you. No one loves me anymore!"

Don't worry, you're still awesome!

Thanks, you're awesome too!

And we don't need the guys, all the ladies loves us!

Percy wore a bored expression.

"Tell me, how does Jason put up with you?"

Leo just smiled and patted Percy's shoulder. Percy asked.

"So, are you free to walk with me until the flowershop? So you can tell me the news"

Is this a good idea? Nymph is just waiting for an opportunity to jump on us.

Good thing we have a witness!

Is he willing to testify in our favor?

"Hum... sure, I guess"

"By the way, nice black eye. It really brings out the green in your eyes"

Percy snorted, touching the bruise gently with his fingers.

"You can thank Nico for it"

"He hit you?"

"Long story short, I received a punch meant for him"

"What did he do?"

"According to his agressor, he was born. So, how is life going?"

"Pretty awesome. I have a job, I have some money, I don't have to deal with homework and..."

Jus this luck, Nymph was outside, so she saw him approaching before he could ditch Percy and hide. She was not happy, and marched to his face, completely ignoring Percy.

"WHAT are you doing here!? I thought I made myself clear. Stay away from me, flower-destroyer!"

Still with that? She sounds like a broken record!

And did she forget about that favor?
