Things Change

Welcome Home

Leo stepped off of Festus, still a bit groggy from sleep. He made his way to the Bunker and walked in. He smiled, remembering how much he missed everything. He walked over to his desk where he would draw out plans for new inventions and on it was a small stack of papers. He sat down and began reading.

"It's been 1 week exactly since you died. Or... "Died"... I have hope. I don't know if you'll ever come back or if there are even any chances of you still being alive, but I'll keep my hope. I miss you. Everyone does. Not having you here really brings us down. You always brightened the moods when these things happened. Where are you now? Please come back.
Xoxo your friend Piper"

"It's been 3 weeks. Please come back.
Piper"

"It's been a month and a half. Where are you? I'm still hopeful...
love, Piper."

"3 months. And I still believe your out there. Jason sends his regards. Annabeth says that if you're dead, she'll kill you.
Piper"

"Hey man... We miss you, you know? Jason can't even bring himself to write to you. He's crushed. He needs you... So if you're still out there, please return ASAP. And by the way, Annabeth's threat still stands.
Your friend,
Seaweed Brain.
(Percy)
(In case you were wondering)
(So yeah)
(Just come back)"

"5 months. If you don't get your scrawny little butt back here soon, I will personally hunt you down and kill you.
-Annabeth "the killer" Chase"

"Leo. Please.
Piper"

"I'm sorry... I've given up hope.
Pipes.
Beauty queen."

Leo cried. He didn't realize the pain it would cause the others. He laughed at Percy's note, and realized there was nothing from Jason, Hazel, or Frank. Always the most sensitive. Well, besides Jason. He's probably the first Leo wanted to see. As he put the notes away in his drawer, he made his way to the door. Nervous of what he should do. With one final deep breath, he walked out.
