And I'm just gonna continue 3rd person since no one really commented on it

Please read the A/N at the end!

On with the story!

The last thing Nico remembered was Olympus. He remembered the Fates showing them the huge globe and being turned into vapour. Now, he work up on a sandy beach, Reyna beside him. Nico suddenly noticed they were holding hands and pulled away, blushing.

He looked around at his surroundings. They were on the coast of an island, though Nico couldn't see land anywhere else. Behind them was a forest, though it looked more like an oasis.

He leaned over an prodded the unconscious praetor. "Reyna," he whispered. She didn't budge. He tried again. "Reyna," he said, louder this time. She grumbled and turned around. He sighed and yelled, "REYNA AVILA RAMÍREZ-ARELLANO GET YOUR BUTT UP!!!" He ended up with a slap in the face by a startled Reyna. "Ow!" He muttered. "Oh my gods I'm so sorry!" She apologized. Then her face went Sirius (A/N: HP anyone?). " But never wake me up like that again or you'll end up with more than a slap." He nodded.

She got up and Nico noticed for about the millionth time today how beautiful she was. Her chocolate brown eyes that matched her long, braided hair. The fact that she never wore makeup but still looked stunning. And the aura of leadership surrounding her. She blushed. "You really think that?" She asked quietly. He did a mental facepalm. "I said that out loud, didn't I?" She nodded and Nico blushed furiously.

"Well, yeah, I mean all that and I always wanted to tell you that isortahavehadacrushonyouforthepastthreeyears." He finished quickly. Reyna took a bit to process what he'd said, then smiled. "I did too." He looked up. "For reals?!" She nodded. Nico felt his heart thumping faster. The girl he'd liked since the 2nd Giant War liked her back! Then, they kissed. Not a make out session like Annabeth and Percy had most of the time, but just a long, passionate kiss.

Then, out of no where, they heard a familiar voice. "Well look what we have here."

(A/N: I was gonna end there but because I haven't updated in so long decided to keep going :3)

We broke apart to find a smirking Leo. "Looks like Death Breath finally found a special someone, eh?" He said, raising an eyebrow. (A/N: Yes, I'm aware that Leo and Calypso left Ogygia at the end of BoO but in this story, he hasn't and Festus has broken down so Leo needs time to forge the parts Festus needs and fix him and they haven't left yet) They both blushed. "Shut up, Valdez. It's not like I don't know about you and Calypso." Nico shot back. Leo flushed a bright pink but managed to say, "Hazel told you, didn't she?" He nodded.

Leo rubbed his hands together. "Well, if you're going to be staying here for a while, might as well catch up! C'mon!" He said excitedly and grabbed both Nico and Reyna's arms and dragged them through the forest. When they exited, they came face to face with a small hut with a garden that had all different sorts of flowers, which Nico could name a few because of Persephone's constant lecture on different types of plants.

"Whoa," Reyna gasped, looking around. Suddenly, a girl in Greek robes with cinnamon coloured hair and a dark almond coloured eyes, who Nico guessed was Calypso, came out of the hut. "Is that you, Leo?" She called to us. "Right here, Sunshine!" He said, running to her and giving her a kiss on the lips quickly. Then he pointed to us. "Calypso, I want you to meet Reyna and Nico, some friends of mine." He introduced. Reyna gave a small frown. "I wouldn't exactly say your my friend, especially after destroying New Rome. More like fellow demigod." She pointed out, which caused Leo to huff and Calypso to give him a look that said: you're explaining this later.

"I thought we'd gotten over that! And anyways, it wasn't me, it was an eidolon(A/N: is that how you spell it?)!" He said, throwing his hands up in exasperation. "And your point is...?" She asked. He rolled his eyes. "Whatever RA-RA." He said which then Reyna sent him a death glare that immediately shut him up. Calypso let out a small laugh. "I need to learn that sometimes," she said, playfully punching Leo who mimed mock hurt, then brightened up.

"Come in! You need to tell me what happened on the beach and for the last, um, how long has it been since I left?" He asked. Calypso rolled her eyes. "Three years," Nico said. His eyes widened. "Holy Hephaestus it's been three years?!" "Yes, Repair Boy, now come on. You wanted to know why we're here, right?" Reyna inquired and he nodded excitedly like a 5 year old and dragged Nico over to the hut while Reyna and Calypso followed behind, trying to stifle their laughter.

When they got in the hut, Nico saw dishes and clothes floating around. Leo must've seen his confusion, because then he said, "invisible servants. Awesome, right?!" When the girls came in, they sat on a pair of couches near the back of the house, Nico and Reyna on one, and Leo and Calypso on the other.

"So," Leo started, "are you two a thing now?" He asked smirking. Reyna and Nico exchanged a look and both nodded, blushing, though Nico could sense something bothering Reyna. Leo punched his fist in the air. "Told you so, Sunshine!" He said, and Calypso suppressed a laugh. Then Reyna spoke up. "But that's not why we're here." She said quickly before things could get awkward. The couple turned their attention back to Reyna where she started to explain about the quest. "...so now here we are, on Ogygia, looking for you two." They stared at us for a moment before Calypso asked, "what was the prophecy?" Reyna looked at him, signalling for Nico to speak. He sighed at recited the prophecy:

The son of Death and the daughter or Rome,

To together, defeat, and bring Fate home.

A curse to be told and broken,

To a warrior's name unspoken.

Another shall be rejoined,

With a love stuck like two joints.

And to scale the wall a friendships lost,

To lose a price worth a heart's cost."

He finished. "We were thinking of you when they said Another shall be rejoined, with a love stuck like to joints. So we came here after visiting the Fates." Reyna concluded. They both nodded in understanding. "Well, what are we waiting for? Festus just happens to be completed a bit before you came here!" Leo said happily. Nico paled, and Reyna noticed. "Nico, what's wrong?" She asked gently, placing her hand on top of his. "Well, it's just the rivalry between the Big Three, you know. I don't want to get everyone blasted out of the sky because of me." He confessed.

Leo came over and slung his arm around Nico's neck. "Don't worry! You said Ouranos was waking up, didn't you? I'm sure good ol' grandpa Zeus won't mind!" He said grinning. Calypso sighed. "Leo, Ouranos is the god of the sky. It won't matter if Zeus shoots us down or not if we're in Ouranos' domain." She explained to him. He made an O with his mouth as realization dawned on his face. Then frowned. "Then how will we get of Ogygia?" A smirk appeared across my face which I could tell was making the others nervous. "Well, if we have no other way, I guess we'll have to shadow travel, won't we?" I explained.
