Leo Valdez X Reader | Is It Mutual? | One Shots

you are Valhalla to me pt1

  

    Last time you had ran that away from home was when you were on a quest with an einherjar friend of yours, a clumsy yet sweet boy, Magnus. He was a child of Frey and you were a child of Freya so that kind of made you cousins? You and Magnus had agreed that in order not to entangle things more than needed you would not analyze your family tree.

      It was actually funny cause you weren't dead…well not yet but your doom seemed to chase you (pun fully intended). Right now you were running up a hill in the middle of the woods as a frost giant was chasing you. You were concerned that she wasn't in jottunheim and instead was here after you.
 
    You had to blame yourself too, in all honesty you weren't exactly the one to stay out of trouble and so your life could be easily described as …interesting to say the least. You panted as your stamina was slowly giving up on you. 'oh norns, If only I had taken those gym classes' you pondered kind of irritated with yourself.
 
     One could ask…"(y/n), why of all the places are you in the middle of the woods?" The answer was that the cousin of Magnus, (Annabelle was her name? You could not quiet remember) had told you that since you were still alive you should totally visit a certain camp where there are more people like you and you would be safe. Of course safe was a word that could easily be misinterpreted, at least in a demigod's life. 
   
     Your legs started to feel sore and you feared that if you continued that way you would soon pass out right there in the forest. You had to use your brain. Easy to say when you are not running for your life, but yet your adrenaline worked better than you had thought. You quickly found a rope in your backpack that was filled with ' useless ' stuff as Magnus would say. You really wished he would be here so that you could rub it in his face.
   
      The plan was simple …tie the rope between two trees let the giantess trip and then maybe kill her??? It was a work in progress. Your fingers worked quickly at steading the rope and then you looked up the sky.

 
   " Hey!!!! Miss giantess!!! I have decided to give up you can kill me!" You yelled cupping your mouth with your hands in order to echo better.

 

That totally stopped the giantess at her tracks, bowing a little to look at you better.

"You know…I've realised…it's okay that you want to kill me cause jealousy is an emotion we all experience" you said sighing with fake pity in your voice.
 

  The giantess threw you a confused look. "What? I am hunting you becau-" she started but was quickly caught off by you.

" No no really its ok with me. I always knew I was exceptionally beautiful but to put a giantess to shame with my beauty is new to me" you said nonchalantly as you made a careless gesture with your hands.
  

  The giantess' brows furrowed in an emotion between anger and frustration. " You punny mortal I will-" she started her threat but again you acted as if you hadn't heard her. " You know what Taylor says 'the haters gonna hate hate hate hate hate but baby I am just gonna shake', a real life lesson if you ask me" you monologued pacing around.
  
 

  If you were in a right state of mind you would face palm at your acts that looked a lot like a cinematic comedy to any bystander.

"Did you just call me ugly?!" Her glare was way too heated for a frost giant in your opinion. You gulped as you put your best acting face.

"Oh…am i the first to break the news to you…well that's awkward. I thought you had mirrors in juttenheim. Do not worry though, you know what they say…'never judge a book by its cover' maybe someone will love you for your …" you intentionally caught of the phrase acting as if you were thinking really hard. "Your warm heart" you trailed off, sarcasm leaking from your tongue.

"Ohhhh you are SOOO dead!" The giantess shrieked and started chasing you again. After all this you had fortunately gathered some of your powers so you again started running towards the direction where the rope hanged.
 

You swiftly slided underneath it while transforming your sword but the giantess was so blinded by her fury that did not notice the rope that caused her fall, leading her face down to the dirt.

You quickly used your sword to cut off her head. See, your sword was rather sharp...well it had the abilities of a lightsaber (even though it looked nothing like one) so you had decided to name it as a star wars character. You had named it Han cause without him you would be riding solo. You had found it hilarious at that time and still did even though Samirah gave you an exasperated sigh as she caught the bridge of her nose, on the contrary Magnus had laughed so hard he had rolled on the floor but maybe it was the post -nearly-died haze. Alex just face palmed but she (cause she was a she at that time) offered a smile.
         
      Finally ridden off your enemy you walked your way up the hill only to find a huge sign saying.             
" CAMP HALF-BLOOD"

You really hoped this was worth the trouble. As you stumbled in you were greeted by a bunch of weird looks. 'Maybe it was the blood' you guessed. You gazed around trying to grasp the view. It was really a marvelous sight to behold. Strawberry hills stretching for miles, meticulously organised cabins and weird places like a lava climbing wall??? Perfect.

     "Hello?" A voice called from behind you making you turn to meet the owner of the voice. There stood  a tall …horse man??? "A centaur?" You asked mostly to yourself. He nodded .

   " You are new here. I am Chiron … what's your name?" He questioned and to be frank you hadn't the courage to be sassy this time.

"(Y/n)" you replied laconically not wanting to reveal your last name yet.  His eyes lit up in realisation. "Oh annabeth told me you would come" Chiron said. You were caught quiet off guard at that.

   "Oh. Well, she told me I would be safe and you know places sound pretty tempting when they guarantee you won't die a gruesome death" you explained and the man nodded slightly as an understanding smile played on his lips.

"Yeah you will be safe here, however I guess you are the age of 17?" He guessed and you nodded . "Well if you want to graduate you can go to another camp like this where they offer you both safety and a university to study at. " He explained.
 

    "Dear Odin, I will have to go all the way there now?" You asked exasperated and worn off. "You can stay here for some time till you feel ready to leave and maybe we can send someone with you after all we have plenty of kids who will be leaving for that camp this week" He reassured making you calm down a little.

"Now, I have to introduce you to someone" Chiron said and lead the way to a cabin. He knocked the door before opening making his way in.

The room was dimly lit and a little chaotic but not unbearably chaotic. After your eyes adjusted to the dark you saw a figure bend over a table and scribbling furiously. Curly hair graced his face as he turned you saw his eyes too were the same brown colour as his curls. He seemed like a Latino.

"Chiron? What happened? I swear I am not the one that filled the Aphrodite cabin with glitter" he stammered hurriedly. Chiron's brows furrowed but decided against investigating the boy's suspicious words. "A new camper has come… I would like to help her settle here as well as you can for the time being" the centaur explained sternly.

The Latino nodded as he approached you, his curious gaze piercing you. "Leo valdez, nice to meet you" he said while placing a soft kiss on your knuckles, an action that made your cheeks flush.

"(Y/n) (l/n), likewise" you responded softly revealing your last name. This boy had something that intrigued you and made you want to spend all your time with him.
   

Hey!!! Long time no see! I've come back with this and tbh I am rather pleased by the result
