06. L'Amore
"Hey, has anyone seen Leo?" Jason asked, while the Seven sat on the dinning room of the Argo II.
"Wasn't he in the engine room?" Frank asked, raising his eyebrow.
"He's in his room" Annabeth confirmed, holding Percy's hand.
"Doing what?" he replied, baffle (as always).
"Not forgetting" was Piper's comment.
Meanwhile, Leo...
Guardo il cielo e non vedo altro colore
solo grigio piombo che mi spegne il sole,
l'unica certezza è gli occhi che io ho di te.
Leo was laid down in his bed, wrecking his brain for an answer. What he did before leaving Ogygia was a risk worth taken? Normally, when he is this excited, he can't hold his hands still. Still, his friends had noticed the small changes in him, now. But how he was suppose not to change when he met those pleading and angry eyes?
Due fotografie è tutto ciò che rimane,
sul mio letto il vento le fa volare,
la distanza che ci divide fa male anche a me.
Leo turned to the wall of his room: real-time live features of Camp Half-Blood are shown on the walls. Moments like these made him wonder why the Hades he never made a small camera, so both could be able to feel less lonely, to feel less hurt with the distance.
Se non vai via, l'amore è qui.
How was the myth? Men had the choice of staying with her and be the receivers of her love? "I fall in love with men who won't stay" That's what she said, yet each of those men had to leave. He was the first one to promise otherwise.
Sei un viaggio che non ha ne' meta ne' destinazione,
sei la terra di mezzo dove ho lasciato il mio cuore. così
Sono solo anch'io, come vivi tu, cerco come te...
L'amore.
He laughed quietly, thinking the first time he saw her. He, without a second thought, classified her as 'out of his league'. He tended to like girls who were unreachable: first Annabeth (she had said she was looking for his boyfriend first time she met you), then Khione (low from his part), later Thalia (dude, she's your best friend's sister! Who's also a Hunter!), Hazel followed (only because of the bisabuelo-Sammy-stuff), finishing with her... But, if he was send, means he always had a shot with her... That lifted his spirit.
Quel che so di te è soltanto il tuo nome,
la tua voce suona in questa canzone.
Musica e parole emozioni che scrivo di noi.
Se non vai via, il mondo è qui.
"Leo! Are you OK?" Hazel asked him, when he walked into the dinning room.
"Yeah, all peachy" he covered up. Everyone nodded "Hey, you guys wanna listen to some music? You know, lifts the spirits..." he proposed.
"Dancing contest!!" Piper added, smirking. The guys groaned, but the gals agreed.
"But, who dances with me?!" he pouted.
"We'll share you" Annabeth promised, before everyone started to fool around.
"Hey, what kind of music is that one?" Frank asked, after a while, curious.
"Sounds like centro american..." Jason suggested.
"It's, um... Calypso" Leo explained, fiddling. He saw the recognition in Percy's eyes "I don't know, suits me" he explained, trying not to make it the big deal it was.
Sei un viaggio che non ha ne' meta ne' destinazione,
sei la terra di mezzo dove ho lasciato il mio cuore. così
Sono solo anch'io, come vivi tu, cerco come te...
L'amore.
Cambia il cielo i tuoi occhi no,
come vetro è l'amore che sei.
You need to think, Valdez!! he scolded himself. She said no men visit her island twice. Well, now you have Odysseus' device, a crystal from her cave and Festus. Maybe you could set everything for Festus to go and find her... No, that's ridiculous!! That looks like the last option, unless... She mentioned Hermes and Dad went there from time to time. Could the answer be so obvious, yet so dangerous of a wild card? I have to make sure we save the world so spectacularly the Gods should give us the highest gifts... Fast chances they can be so generous.
Sei un viaggio che non ha ne' meta ne' destinazione,
sei la terra di mezzo dove ho lasciato il mio cuore. così
Sono solo anch'io, come vivi tu, cerco come te...
L'amore.
"You think he'll be OK?" Hazel asked the girls that night.
"He'll be... he just need time" Piper assured her.
"I admit I have no love for her after the time in The Pit, but... Leo deserves some" Annabeth admitted.
"Dude, what's wrong with Leo?" Frank asked the guys.
"Well, if I had to guess... he's heartbroken" Jason guessed.
"From whom?" the son of Mars, questioned.
"From someone who can't leave and is the men biggest 'What If...'" Percy explained, cryptic. Both his friends looked confused "Ever heard of Calypso...?"
