True Colors

chapter 7

Nico just stood there while Will and Keira screamed their heads off.

"I wish we could watch you guys play." Will said.

Nico grabbed Will's hand. "Uh, I don't think so, we have much better things to do."

Will looked confused. "We do?" Nice gave him a look. "Oh, oh yeah, sorry, Keira."

Keira shrugged. "It's okay, I'll tell you everything that happened, later."

Will didn't even get a chance to say goodbye because Nico dragged him away already.

As they turned the corner, and disappeared, Keira looked around and happened to spot Leo walking in her direction.

So, she waved. "Hey!"

Leo snapped his attention towards her and waited, until she reached him.

"You are the new girl that likes Harley, am I right?" Leo asked, smirking.

Keira closed her eyes and took a deep breath. In her head, she thought 'Im so about to murder Nico!'

Then she opened her eyes and said. "I'll forget you ever said that, but, can you tell me where the volleyball court is?"

"I'll show you," Leo said leading the way.

Keira followed him. They wlaked silently for 50 seconds before Keira started asking Leo questions.

"So What cabin are you in?"

Leo looked beak at her as if she asked the most stupidest question ever. "Heapheastus, what cabin did you think I was in?"

"Well I don't know, I just got here." Keira said, confusedly.

Leo laughed. "I know, Keira, I was there."

Keira thought about more questions to ask.

"Do you make stuff with metal?"

Leo nodded. "Lots. Weapons and armory"

"What about jewelry, that's metal?" Keira pointed out.

Leo facepalms. "Does it look like you will be wearing jewelry in battle?"

Keira flipped her hair. "Well I always want to die looking elegantly fabulous"

Leo rolled his eyes. He though. 'Is this all girls talk about? Luckily Calypso doesn't care that much for it'

They walked in the sand and just ahead of them was the volleyball court.

People were waiting there already.

And when they reached it, Keira said, "thank you, um.."

"Leo.... Leo Valdez, and dont mention it" he said and waved to Harley, then left.

Keira walked to Harley. "Hey, Harley."

Harley smiled (once again). "Im glad your here, I was beginning to think you were lost"

Keira giggled. "Well luckily your brother walked me here"

Harley's eyes shimmered. "Did he tell you corny jokes on the way?"

Keira shook her head. "Actually, no"

He sighed in relief. "Oh, good. They're not that funny, be graceful you didn't hear them."

Keira's face went blank.

Then Keira started laughing.

Harley looked even more confused. "Why are you laughing?"
