Hey guys! I am so excited! it is my 13th Birthday tomorrow! And for those of you who are unsure where this story is going, it is going to be a Frank X Leo Bromance because...I just feel like it. Anyway on to Chapter 4! This will be rather short and there will be another update tomorrow!
LEO'S POV
I screamed and woke in a cold sweat. I breathed a sigh of relief. It was all just a dream. Frank hadn't really stormed in here and threatened me...had he? I felt my head, nope, no bruises from when I banged it. Hmm.
Just then there were some knocks at my door. "Leo?" Jason called hesitantly from outside. He slowly opened the door and came in. His eyes widened when he saw me.
"L-Leo! You're awake!" He shouted gleefully.
"Awake?" I asked, extremely confused, "What do you mean awake? I've only been asleep for one day, Geez Superman!"
"ONE NIGHT!" Jason exclaimed, "Ha! More like a week!" He said loudly throwing his arms around.
"Wait-what? A week?" I squeaked, very shocked.
"Yes!" Jason sounded exasperated.
Then he started jumping up and down like a hyperactive 5 year old on a sugar rush. "GUYS, GUYS! COME QUICK! LEO'S AWAKE!" he yelled, calling into the hallways.
There was a series of loud thudding sounds like stampeding elephants as Piper, Frank, Annabeth, Hazel and Percy came rushing in.
"Leo!" They exclaimed happily. Suddenly Frank came rushing forward, shaking like mad. Then he rushed up to me and gave me a massive bear hug. Literally, he turned into a bear midst the hug.
"Leo! I'm so so so sorry!!! Plea-Please forgive me! It wasn't my fault! I-It was one of the eidolons!! It had possessed the Hydra we were fighting and when it bit me it possessed me! Please forgive me!" Then he broke down into a sobbing blubbering mess.
I blinked at him with confusion. I then knelt down and gave him a hug. "I-It's okay, it was not your fault" I told him reassuringly. I know it's weird to suddenly forgive him like this, but I know what it's like to be possessed by an eidolon, and I don't want Frank, or any demigods, to go through it, it makes your soul feel icy, you have nothing but death thoughts and evil intentions, then when your are released from the possession, everyone blames you for things you haven't done.
I saw a look of relief wash through his features and he wrapped me in another hug, this time everyone else joined as well. We stayed like that for a bit. As a whole, as friends but mostly, as a family.
That's the end of Chapter 4! Chapter 5 may be out tomorrow or Thursday!
