I was so excited I was laughing.
Calypso, I was gonna see her again.
"Ha ha!!" I jumped in the air, pummeling my fists at the same time.
"Ogygia, baby!" I jumped up the steps, two at a time,"Woohoo!"
It had been two minutes since Calypso called me, again.
She had been calling me all week, secretly, of course. Some times it was at night, others, like today, were smack dab in the middle of the afternoon, when Calypso knew I was feeding Festus.
Every time after I called her, it put an extra spring in my step. Always.
Piper heard me laughing, and met me on the Argo II's main deck.
"Hey!" She said, skipping next to me.
"Hola." I smiled.
"What's got you in a good mood? Not that I mind, I like this better than the Leo who doesn't eat cheeseburgers."
"Yeah. Me too. Cheeseburgers are too good to miss." I agreed,"As for what's got me in a good mood? Um, Festus left me some bacon."
"But you screamed 'Ogygia!' What's going on?" The daughter of Aphrodite knit her eyebrows and crossed her arms, making me stop our lovely stroll across deck.
"I'm just excited, is all." I rushed,"Now, come on. Are you gonna skip with Uncle Leo or naw?"
Piper didn't look fully satisfied, but she continued our skip without a word about my freak out.
*************************************
I grabbed a, (guess), cheeseburger for lunch, and was about to go call Calypso, when Jason spotted me,"Hey! Where're you going?"
I stopped in my tracks, and turned around to face the son of Jupiter,"Well, Festus gets hungry too, you know."
"You just fed him." Jason said.
"I did?"
"Yeah."
"Oh."
Silence. Frank Zhang messed with some Chinese handcuffs,(shockingly not turning into a lizard), Hazel Levesque fidgeted with the China plates, Percy Jackson munched on some blue cookies,(which I'd never gotten the chance to try), Annabeth Chase was reading a book,(go figure), and Piper was grabbing an apple and plopping down in a thousand finger massage chair,(courtesy of Uncle Leo himself).
"Leo? Where are you going?" Jason repeated,"Answer me!"
I didn't answer Jason.
Instead, I ran down to the engine room, locking the door behind me, and started making the rainbow.
