I Can't Forget that You Forgot (A Leo Fanfiction)

And it Happened a Couple More Times

Leo's eyes blinked open.

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!

He was lying in his bed, unlike how he was just moments before.

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!

Did he pass out, or...?

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!

Click!

"Leo!" Piper called from the hallway.

"You better get your butt outta there before I drag it out myself!"

Leo froze. What kind of dumb magic was this, making him relive today?

"...I'll be right there, Beauty Queen."

Quickly, the fire-summoner got dressed and dashed down the hall, passing Jason and Piper.

"What's the rush, Repair Boy?" the son of Jupiter called.

"Gotta get an early start, Superman!" Leo yelled back, hoping he wasn't being overly suspicious.

He could imagine the surprised looks on his friends' faces.

Despite the calm exterior, the son of Hephaestus was freaking out on the inside as he sat in the left corner.

He had asked his plate for waffles instead, just to experiment, but it still piled up with toast. (Not that he didn't enjoy the breakfast, of course.)

Leo dully noted that Piper had that tofu omelette from yester--the first today.

Suddenly, Leo remember Percy and Annabeth and glanced over in their direction.

Sure enough, they looked up at each other and Percy said something to Annabeth. She nodded in reply.

"...Frank, it's easy. No need to fret over it," Hazel's voice drifted over to Leo. No doubt she was convincing Frank to buy groceries with her.

And Piper and Jason were shrugging to each other, apparently not worried about their errand.

Nico was simply poking at his dry pancake.

About halfway through the meal, Piper tapped her glass filled with orange juice with her fork, getting everyone's attention.

"Alright, we should get started." This time the daughter of love didn't even glance at Leo.

That won't help them remember me, Leo realized.

"Can't we finish eating first?" he asked, hoping for a response.

Luckily, he got one.

"Leo, it's gonna be quick, and I really want it off my mind," came the reply.

Alrighty then.

"Shouldn't we wait for Coach Hedge?"

"He already knows he'll be staying on the ship."

Third time's the charm?

"But--"

"Shut up, Leo," Frank interrupted.

Said demigod blinked in surprise, and slumped over in his seat.

Piper gave him an apologetic look before continuing.

"Who'll guard the ship with Coach Hedge and Nico?"

"Me and Annabeth--"

"It's 'Annabeth and I,' Aquaman," Leo intervened, once again hoping them to remember him.
