Jason and Piper dragged me to the lake.
Why? I was wondering that myself.
We sat down on the dock, dangling our feet in the water.
It was the middle of the day, and it was comfortably warm. With my feet in the water, it felt like-
"Ogygia." I sighed to myself.
"What?" Jason and Piper asked.
"Huh?"
"You mumbled something." Piper said.
"Oh! That. It's nothing." I said. My face felt like it was burning.
Piper gave me a look," I'm not buying it Leo. You're our best friend. What's wrong?"
"Really, guys, it's nothing."
Piper looked like she wanted to say something, but Jason put his hand on her shoulder, like saying don't push it.
We sat there in an uncomfortable silence. I had never hid anything from my friends before, but my feelings about Calypso were different.
Calypso.
My heart ached at her name.
Then I got a plan worthy of Hephaestus.
"Hey, guys," I said to my friends,"Im gonna take a cat nap."
Jason nodded and Piper said,"It's about time."
I got up and walked to Bunker 9.
Not for a cat nap.
For a flash drive.
