Leo POV

I lean down and kiss Calypso on the forehead. "We are going to have a beautiful baby girl."

Calypso smiles and say, "She'll be your girl, McShizzle." Her smile suddenly drops as she glances behind me at something.

"Look at that poor girl behind. She looks horrible." Calypso worries, biting her lip in anxiousness.

"She looks like she needs someone caring in her life. Leo, go over there and ask Cristyn who she is."

I sigh, "Okay baby, I'm sure she just got in a little tussle here. Just because I love you." I kiss Calypso again and shuffle over to the bed across from Calypso's.

"Hey, Cristyn. Who is this girl? I don't recognize her. Is she okay?" I question Cristyn with all of Calypso's questions in one breath.

Cristyn sighs and shakes her head. "This is Jazmine. She's been abused and Thalia rescued her from her father."

I look down at the bruised girl's face and feel a sudden guilt sink into me. "Oh. Well... I'm going back to Claypso now. Thank you.""

I briskly walk back over to her and whisper into her ear. "Her names Jazmine. She's a new arrival to Camp, brought here knocked out from Thalia. Her father abused her and Thalia rescued her from him."

Calypso covers her face in shock and exclaims, "Oh my! Oh my poor dear. She really needs someone to love her now."

I nod my head in agreement. She then looks at me with a look of excitement. "I know! We could adopt her!"

"What... Wait! What! Adopt. Baby, your due any day. We can't care an abused child and a newborn."

Calypso flats at me and I put my hands up in defeat. "Fine. We'll take her in."

Calypso jumps up in excitement and hugs me. "I love you, Leo!" I grin and give her a light kiss.

"I love you, too, Calypso."
