Calypso watched Leo's raft sail away from the little window in her house. There he went, another boy that she had fallen in love with. Of course, She had hated him at first. He was annoying and arrogant. But then, after a while, she had started to like him. As the shadow of the boat disappeared, she called out, "Goodbye, Leo." Her voice cracked. In a few seconds, she couldn't see anything at all. Never again would she see Leo Valdez, the person she had liked most on her island. She walked out the room, thinking of Leo.

"Stop it, Calypso." She muttered. "You have to stop thinking about him."

More men came and left her island, Ogygia, but none of them she liked as much as Leo.

Days, weeks and eventually, months past. And everyday, she thought less and less of Leo. One day, she hardly remembered him.

"Goodbye!" She called to a boy who was leaving her island. She smiled. That guy- Justin, was the most annoying person who had ever came to her island. Calypso started to walk away from the shore, when she heard a boat horn. Calypso quickly turned and ran back to the beach. When she got to the water, she gasped. A giant ship was sailing towards her. A giant bronze dragon head was stuck to the bow. Calypso squinted to try to see it better. There was someone jumping up and down, waving his arm around like crazy. Calypso gasped. It was Leo. But how could he find Ogygia again?! She didn't care. Leo was back. Leo seemed to notice her, because he jumped off the side off the boat before it had even stopped moving. Calypso let out a small scream- why would he jump from that high? But the waves seemed to come up to him, creating a surf board like surface for Leo. He jumped off of the water when he was only a few feet away from Calypso. He ran to her, his arms out. She ran to him too. They met, and they kissed.

"You're... You're back!" Calypso exclaimed once they had pulled away. Leo took her hands.

"I know." Leo said.

"But how? It, it's impossible to find Ogygia twice and-"

"Hey, hey, hey. Listen. I swore it on the River Styx that I would come back. And I did." A crowd of people now stood around them- none of them she recognized.Well, except one. She saw Percy Jackson among the crowd. He smiled at her and winked, but didn't say anything. Calypso couldn't help but smile. She put her hands on Leo's face and kissed him again, ignoring the gasps from the people around her. She didn't care that other people were watching. She only cared that Leo was back and that he was with her.
