When they got to Leo's room the first thing she saw was the gift so nicely wrapped on his messy desk. She didn't say anything as Leo walked up and snatched it from the desk. He walked over to her and put his forehead against Calypso's.
"Callie...I made you this." He said offering it. "It-It's not much but I made it before I found you. I found it the other day and wrapped it."
"Leo...That's so sweet." Calypso said. Carefully she unwrapped it and opened its box. It was the prettiest thing she had ever seen. It was a flower that wasn't bloomed yet made of gold. It sat on a small bronze pestle with a small silver button in front.
"Do you like it?" Leo said Touching his noes to hers. He smelled of smoke and oil. It was the best smell ever. His eyes were filled with worry like she wasn't going to like it. She kissed him. Their lips moved in perfect harmony like they were meant to always be together.
"I take that as a yes then." Leo said as they broke apart.
"Defiantly but I'm curious...what does the button do?" She asked holding it up so he could see the small silver button.
"Why don't you press it and find out?" He said. They sat together in the small couch in his room. She pressed her finger on the small smooth button. Almost like magic the golden flower bloomed to make a beautiful flower. "I saw a flower like that on your island. One day it was all I could think about so I made it."
"It's a moonlace." Calypso said. "only they are silver."
"Oh dang it." Leo said. "I'm making another one!" He said about to take the flower but Calypso pulled away.
"You can make another one but I'm keeping this. It's perfect."
"But it's not the right color!" Leo protested but Callie shook her head.
"I'm still keeping it."
"But-" Leo started.
Calypso shut him up with a kiss. "I told you I would need to shut you up."
"Whatever." Leo said letting Calypso lean into him. He played the a lock of her hair twisting it in his hands. They sat there for a while. Calypso took in the warmth of him.
"Hm." Calypso said deep in thought. Leo stopes twisting her hair.
"Is something wrong." Leo asked.
"No...Its just..." Calypso sat up and turn to face Leo sitting cross legged. He turned and did the same. "Will you take me shopping. I really want to see the modern world."
Leo laughed that clear funny laugh that made Calypso hear skip a couple beats. "I'm not a big shopper..."
"Please" she said leaning into him scooting in and wrapping his legs around his waist. "I wouldn't want to go with anyone but you."
Leo sighed. "Alright. But your going to need a jacket it's December. It may be warm at camp but it's cold in the mortal world." He wrapped his hands around her waist pulling her in so their chests touched. She was engulfed in the smell of fire.
"Ok." She said. "I'll steal one of yours, or Pipers." Calypso put her hands on his shoulders and pulled him in for a kiss. They sat there kissing what seemed like hours when they heard a ding.
Leo and Calypso stood to see Emily in the door way. "What are you doing here?" Leo asked waking towards her. Calypso trailed behind her.
"I came to talk to Leo...I didn't know you had company..." she said glancing at Calypso. Was that, jealousy in her eyes.
"It's fine." Calypso said trying to shake the fact that another girl was jealous because Leo was hers. "What did you need to speak of."
"I had a dream. It was my dad. He told me to 'follow the wind' to find who's behind that voice."
"Hey don't come talking to me." Leo said. "In the morning talk to Chiron. and it wasn't Drew?"
"No." Emily said. "Drew talked to them in her charmspeak and they said that it wasn't her. She wasn't powerful enough. Apparently."
"Well at least we don't have a traitor on our hands right?" Calypso said taking Leo's hand.
"Yea..." Emily said. Calypso swore that she looked at her with jealousy or maybe it was just her cold eyes of war like her father.
Leo ruffled Emily's hair. "Good night kiddo. Talk to Chiron in the morning and maybe the oracle will give you a prophecy."
"Ok. night." Emily said fixing her hair and traveling bake up to the surface. When the bed came back down Leo and Calypso flipped down.
"I think that girl has taken a liking to you." Calypso said staring at the metal ceiling.
"You think?" Leo said. Calypso looked at Leo. "oh...you think she's jealous." Calypso nodded.
"Lots of girls like you, you know? They are all angry that I took you." She said. Tears started to fill her eyes. Why couldn't she have a normal relationship with out making people mad.
Leo rolled Calypso on top of him. Her tears fell onto his face. "hey." Leo said calmly pulling her head into his neck cuddling her. "it okay."
"Why can't I have something with out making people mad. I wanted a good relationship with my father, so I helped him. I got sent away to a magic island. Then I finally break free with you and...and..." Leo kissed her forehead and stroked her hair.
"Listen. No matter what anyone else thinks. You will alway be mine. I found you. No one will ever take that away. Understand." Calypso nodded. Leo continued to comfort her while humming You Are My Sunshine.
They lay there together like that until the tears stopped flowing from her face and they both fell asleep.
