Stay With Me

And now they know

Thankfully, this is the last chapter I wrote, so after this they will be longer and better. ENJOY!!

 In the morning, Percy woke up with Leo leaning over him, beaming.

¨You slept through the entire morning!¨ Leo laughed, sitting him up and pulling him out of bed. ¨Get up!¨
¨Really?¨ Percy said, hugging Leo. "Did I sleep for that long?¨

¨Yes," Leo replied. "Yes, Percy, you did. Look outside!!¨
The bright sun shone through the window, and Percy saw the entire camp out training and doing their stuff.

¨Leo!¨ Percy whined, ¨Why did you let me sleep that long!?¨

¨Because.¨ Leo said, kissing Percy on the forehead. ¨ My little puppy needed some rest.¨

Percy laughed and started to get dressed. "Ok, lets go I guess.¨

When the two demigods finally left Percy's cabin, Chiron trotted up to them. "Where have you two been?¨ he asked, raising an eyebrow.

¨Um..." Leo and Percy looked at each other. ¨We, uh we were, uh...¨ Percy tried.

¨Percy wouldn't wake up and I was trying to get him out of bed.¨ Leo said, grinning and telling the almost truth. They had both slept in late, but Leo had woken up early and not bothered to leave.

"Ah..." Chiron laughed, "and Percy, why were you so tired?"

"Oh, I couldn't sleep last night it was to cold!"
"Of course I was fine!" Leo said, jabbing his thumb at his chest and lighting his other hand on fire.

"Of course!" laughed Chiron. "Well, get at least some training in today, boys."

"Yes, sir."

As they walked away, Leo started laughing so hard he clutched his stomach.

"That was close," he choked

"More than close," Percy said, "I mean, people know I'm gay, because of the whole Luke thing, but I can't say the same for you."

Percy put his hands in the pockets of his hoodie and kept walking calmly. Leo smiled.

He caught up with Percy, "Yeah I know, but they'll find out eventually, right?"

"Yeah, but it might as well not be now." Percy shrugged.

*LATER*

Dinner was becoming too much for Leo. Percy had told him they couldn't sit next to each other, touch each other, even look at each other. Leo was sitting alone and quiet, pushing his food around with his fork.

"Dam it." Percy thought "I can't just leave him like that, he looks so miserable."

Percy broke, finally, and went over to Leo.

"Hey."

"I thought we couldn't sit next to each other."

"Changed my mind." Percy said, and he gently pulled Leo's chin up to look at him. "I said I'd stay with you didn't I?"

"You did." Leo smiled.

"Well here I am," Percy said, and kissed Leo, drowning out the gasps of other campers. Leo kissed him back, not caring they were totally exposed to people who didn't know about them yet.

They pulled apart, snickered, their faces still about an inch away from each other, and got up and ran.

When they reached the shore of the lake, they slipped on the sand and sat down next to each other.

"That's one way to show them!" Leo laughed

"Yeah! That was great!" Percy responded, still smiling, "And remember. I'll always keep my promise. I'll stay with you forever."

"DAM IT PERCY! WHY DO YOU HAVE TO BE SO CUTE!" Leo pulled Percy in for another kiss.
