I've always liked Lazel (term by thegirlinthesecondrow) so I decided to write a fic. It Might be a bit strange at first but you just might like it. Criticism is ok as long as it's constructive. I do not own Leo Valdez (no matter what I say;) or other characters from the series. I also do not own Little Ceaser's, I do however enjoy their pizza. I hope you like my story. R&R please!

Chapter one

Hazels Pov

It had not been long since we returned from our mission to release Thatanos. It had been very tiring and it didn't help that as soon as we got back we had to fight for our lives. On the upside though, we had won. We had just received a message from the other camp, Camp Half Blood, that said they were about an hour away. I still couldn't get Leo's image out of my mind. He looked so much like Sammy that it was scary. Just thinking about it sent a cold shiver down my spine.

I would know soon enough though. The ship was landing now. At Percy's word, we hadn't attacked it, despite the fact that Octavian was bent on not letting them survive. Reyna had finally settled that the Greeks would be given a chance. Hopefully Percy was right, and Jason would be on that ship. He was a good leader and everyone at camp looked up to him.

The ship landed in front of us. Any second Sam- Leo would walk out. But still, what could I do? I already had a boyfriend, and I didn't even know if he was like Sammy at all. Still, I couldn't shake the feeling that I was supposed to meet him. My thoughts were interrupted when a large cheer erupted from the crowd. I looked around someone else's head and saw a person on the ground in front of us. It only took me a few seconds to realize that the person standing in front of us was Jason. He was holding hands with a pretty girl who had dark hair and tan skin; I hadn't met her before.

Suddenly from on the ship we heard a loud clang. Someone shrieked in surprise and two seconds later a boy with dark curly hair saying sorry in a sheepish tone walked backwards, eventually jumping off the ship. Still as soon as he turned around I saw a small grin on his face. His eyes were wild and mischievous. It was Leo. Reyna glared at him, obviously wanting an explanation.

"My ADHD was acting up. I was looking at that tree," He said pointing at a random plant nearby, "I ran into Nyssa and she dropped something. I don't know what it was; I wasn't paying attention." Reyna rolled her eyes at his excuse.

Leo's Pov

I couldn't help but feel embarrassed. I hadn't even been here for two minutes, and I already look like an idiot. I ran my hand through my hair and looked up at Reyna. She had dark hair and she looked at me coldly; a purple cloak hung around her shoulders. I looked away out towards the crowd. I looked out at the vast amount of people while Piper, Jason, and Reyna talked. There were all kinds of people there, ranging from buff dudes with swords or spears, to petite girls with slim beautiful figures and pretty faces. I was not disappointed by the number of gorgeous females at camp Jupiter. It was almost better than camp half-blood!

After my friends got done blabbing, it was finally decided that us Greeks could live! The rest of our friends got off and almost immediately I saw Annabeth run into the arms of a boy I could only assume was Percy. The crowd was already starting to dissipate, and I was curious to meet some of Jason's friends from here. He was already gone though. I was momentarily angry at this, but dismissed the thought quickly. I'm sure he probably misses his friends here very much.

A boy comes up to me. He has dark hair and a baby face. His head doesn't seem to match with his body. He looks like he must be Chinese or Japanese. I think Asian would be the safest word to insert here. He smiles at me welcomingly.

"Hello, I'm Frank," He says. I smile back at him and introduce myself.

"My name is Leo Valdez. Do you know where I could get some food?" He looked momentarily taken aback.

"They have some in town, but you can't take weapons or anything like that in there. Why?" I sighed.

"I have been working my ass off for the past eight months trying to build that ship in half the time it really should have taken. I am exhausted. And hungry." He looked at me for a moment. Then a girl a little younger than me, thirteen at the least, came up from behind him. She had caramel colored curls that surrounded her pretty face and the most beautiful golden eyes I had ever seen. She wasn't what I would call hot, but I was curious to know her. She smiled at me.

"Hi I'm Hazel daughter of Pluto," she said a bit shyly. Something told me this wasn't her usual personality though. She sounded a bit nervous. Frank gestured to me.

"She already knows who you are, Leo. Hazel and I were with Percy when he got that video message scroll thing." I nodded. I didn't know how else to respond.

"It's nice to meet you," I said finally smiling at Hazel. She smiled back warmly. "I'm a son of Hephaestus." I added. She nodded.

"I kind of figured that when that one girl labeled you 'repair boy'," she said trying not to laugh for my sake.

"That would be Piper," I said finally, "She's my friend." Hazel nodded. We just sat there and talked for a little while until eventually Frank got hungry too. Turns out they have a Little Ceaser's there. He invited me to go eat lunch with him and Hazel and I of course accepted. We headed off into the general direction of the village, with Frank in the lead. I couldn't help but think about food the whole way.

So what do you think? I would really like it if you would review. Flames welcome, but I prefer there to be a bit of constructive criticism if you aren't going to be complimenting my work. I know at the beginning it sounds a bit like Secrets of Love, but it is very difficult to start this story. I did my best to make it different. It will be VERY different in chapters to come. I also realize that Leo's personality is slightly off. Just keep in mind he is overworked and tired. And hungry. very hungry.

R&R please!
