AN: Ok so I know the media is Piper and Leo but it reminded me so much of Rowan and Leo that I had to add it 😄

Leo had the ship landed right in front of the Big House. Naturally it caught many people's attention. I mean it's a gigantic ship just sitting there, how could you miss it? We were just about ready to take off, just after lunch. We were doing last minute stuff. Percy, Kylie and I were organizing our rooms, Leo was doing repairs. I tried to help but he just shooed me off saying he was okay. Typical Leo. I was incredibly nervous. My heart pounding, stomach twisting. It was even more than it did when I was with Leo, which was saying a lot. I couldn't get that line about somebody perishing out of my head. I knew that Annabeth was probably right. It could mean anything but it pained me to think about it. I just had to wait till we were in the air, then I could clear my head.

I emerged onto the deck, the bright sunlight stinging my eyes. I walked over to the rail to see people staring in awe at the ship before they came back to reality and kept moving on. I was itching to get in the air, failing to clear my head on land. I squeezed my eyes shut, gripping the sides of the ship. I took a large breath before falling away from the edge of the boat and to the quarter deck where Leo was working on something.

"Hey," I said approaching him.

"I told you, I don't need any help," Leo smiled,peering up to meet my eyes.

"I know. Just checking on how you're doing. We can't be too much longer."

"Hold on," Leo said returning to his work, "Just one more little tweak. Wait for it, and, hold on. Okay done!"

I laughed, "Great! Nice tool belt by the way"

"Why thank you!" he said standing up and wiping his forehead, "It's magic."

"Oh really?"

"Yup. I can pull out almost anything that can be found in the average workshop. It seems to be endless."

"Ohhh. Interesting."

"For example," Leo said shoving his hand in a pocket and pulling out a package of mints.

"What is this a way of telling me my breath stinks?"

His eyes widened, "Gods no!"

"I'm just joking!" I laughed.

"Pffffft. Yeah, I knew that."

"Are those Wii remotes?" I asked peering around him to the control center.

It was Leo's turn to laugh, "Yeah."

"What do you need those for? Playing video games when you get bored?"

"Oh yeah," he said almost believably, "I figured I could play some Mario Kart if I had some free time."

I laughed, "Okay, serious answer now?"

" They just help with controlling the ship."

"Hey, if it works!"

"Yuppp," he said popping the p.

Just then Kylie came running up to us, her red hair flying behind her.

"Rowan," she huffed, catching her breath, " Jonah's here to see you."

I grinned, "Really?"

Kylie nodded.

"Be back in a minute."

I ran off the boat as fast as I could. Once I spotted Jonah and ran over to him throwing my arms around him to hug him.

"Woah there tiger," Jonah laughed.
