Leo Valdez X Reader

Mind Tricks

YOUR POV
I was just laying on the ground on top my sleeping bag, thinking about Leo and getting this fluttery feeling in my stomach and chest when I would think about us together.

I hadn't noticed until almost too late that the cabin was ready to leave for lunch. This shows how deep in thought about Leo I was, because I absolutely love food.

I quickly jump up, fix my crazy and messy hair, trying to act like I hadn't almost missed my que to leave.

As we're walking out, Connor tells me that once we get our food, we have to go up and scrape a portion of our food into the hearth as a sacrifice to the gods. Then he had to run back up to the front when Travis yelled at him.

He rolled his eyes and jogged up there. I laughed at him lightly and kept walking, my stomach growling at the thought of food.

Once we get there and sit down after scraping our food into the hearth, I see Leo jogging to the pavillion and he looks around, searching for something. I realize I'm who he's searching for when he locks eyes with me, gives me a small smile and walks over to me.

"Oh look, it's your boooyyyfriend," Connor says in a sing-song voice.

"Shut up, Connor," I respond while laughing.

Leo walks over and leans forward, resting his hands on the table, with his sleeves rolled up to his elbows and motor oil in his hair. Honestly, that's kinda........ Yeah, no. I'm not completing that train of thought.

"What'd he do this time? I mean, he's Connor, he had to have done something," he says with a small smile.

"Like you said, he's Connor," I say, laughing, taking a big bite out of my burger.

"Oh, wow, thanks guys. I feel loved," Connors says, sighing and rolling his eyes.

"Ah, we're having fun. But you have to admit, you've done some pretty dumb stuff in the past. Including you putting those bombs on the wrong hill," Leo says, raising an eyebrow.

I almost choke on my food because I'm laughing so hard.

"You what?! Oh my gods, why'd you even *need* bombs?"

"It wasn't my fault! Travis was taking the lead on that one. Also, I don't really wanna talk about it."

"Uh huh. Well, I-" Leo doesn't get to finish because someone interrupts him.

"Leo Valdez. Now, why might it be that you're not at your godly parents table?" a half-human half-horse guy says

"Well, you see, I was talking to my new friend, (Y/n)," he says with a smile and he winks at me.

"Alright. Well, get to your table. And nice to meet you, (y/n). I'm Chiron, the camp director. I'm a centaur as you can, obviously, see." Chiron says.

"Huh. Nice to meet you. Never thought I'd see or be talking to a centaur."

"Well, that's what everyone thinks when they get here, but soon you're comfortable with sitting around a ping-pong table with him, discussing life-or-death situations while eating cheese whiz out of a can," Leo says, even though I'm pretty sure Chiron told him to go back to his table.

"Mr.Valdez, I thought I said for you to return to your siblings?" Chiron inquires, raising an eyebrow.

Leo snaps his fingers and makes finger guns and says, "Right. Well, see ya later (y/n)," He says before sprinting over to a table full of other kids who look like him.

I laugh before turning back to Chiron.

"I hope you have a nice time here and that we find your godly parent soon. Goodbye Miss. (y/l/n)."
