Ohh danggg. I have no clue what I'm going to write for this chapter... I don't even if I'm going to do a Leo or Calypso chapter!

I'll do a Leo!

okay here goes:

Leo

"What are you showing me?"

I shrugged. "Something I should have showed you the first night you were with us."

"Alright," she said, "Lead the way."

So he did. He took her to the end of the ship that barely anyone went to.

The greenhouse.

Calypso was confused at first, but her eyes lit up when she saw all of the plants inside. "Oh my..." she said.

Leo was glad that she was impressed.

"Can we go in?" she asked.

"Nah, we have to stay out here and just look at it."

Calypso gave a disappointed look.

Leo rolled his eyes. "Duh, of course we can go in!"

"You are being serious?"

"Yeah, I'm serious."

A smile formed on her face and she just looked at it.

Leo laughed. "How come you aren't going in?"

"I do not see the door."

Leo grinned. The door was made of windows just like the walls. He put a hand on her back and brought her towards the door. "Right here," he said and opened the door.

"Oh..." She blushed.

"Some of these plants are dead, but I was hoping you could do your thing and save them."

Calypso bent down and felt one of the leaves on a dead plant. "They need water."

"Just a sec," he said, walking up to one of the cabinets and pulling out a watering can. He filled it up with a nearby hose.

"Here," he said, handing it to Calypso. He watched as she began to working the dirt. He watched and she worked for about five minutes, then she seemed to realize that he was there too.

"You can help," she said, looking up at him with dirt on her face. She looked like a football player.

"I don't know," he said. "I'm good with machines and that's about it."

"Come here. Let me show you."

Leo got down on his knees and set his crutches to the side.

"The soil is too packed. You have to grind it up so the roots to grow. Yes?"

"Yes."

"Get to it. There are plenty of plants to grind," she ordered.

Leo grinned and started clumping the dirt up. "Yes ma'am."

The two of them were in there for a while. They didn't talk much, but Leo was okay with it. he got to work by her side for a few hours and her hand had brushed against his, like twice. So, he was fantastic.

"How long until we are to your home?" Calypso asked him.

Home?

Leo didn't know if he'd call Camp Halfblood his home, but he knew what she meant.

"Soon. Why? You anxious to get rid of me?" he joked.

"Definitely."

Leo's heart dropped. He knew that Calypso was joking, but what if she was going to meet someone at camp and rather them take her on a tour of the modern world than him. Leo felt like he was going to be sick. He didn't want to lose Calypso so soon.
