A/N: Hello, everyone, here is yet another collection of Leo and Reyna moments. They'll probably stay on the fluff side, though I'm not going to promise anything.

It took everyone quite a while to realize that the only person who Aurum and Argentum liked (besides Reyna, of course), was Leo.

It wasn't until they were all sitting around in the senate room, after a meeting—Annabeth, Percy, Reyna, Frank, Hazel, Jason, and Piper—and Jason was recounting a story about how Aurum and Argentum had attacked him when he tried to sneak into the kitchens for a night time snack.

"Well, it's not that surprising," Hazel had said when they stopped laughing, "They really don't like anyone, you know."

"That's very true," Jason said.

Reyna allowed herself a small smile, "You make them sound like monsters," she said, rubbing Aurum's head in an attempt to comfort him, as he seemed able to sense that he was being made fun of.

"Actually," Piper started, "Reyna's not the only one they like,"

Percy grinned. "Yeah, really? Who else around here is as chilly as Reyna? Octavian?"

"Excuse me—" Reyna started, looking offended.

"They like Leo too," Piper said quickly. Reyna immediately stopped talking, looking flustered.

"Do they?" Jason said, looking incredulously at his girlfriend. He seemed confused that the dogs would like anyone if they didn't like him.

"What, surprised anyone likes Leo more than you?" Percy joked.

"No, I just—" Jason struggled to speak, "It's just that, Leo's Greek, and Aurum and Argentum are, like, extremely loyal to Rome." He turned to Piper, "Do you really think they like Leo?"

"Yes," Piper said firmly. She was watching Reyna as she said this.

"You know, she's right," Annabeth interjected, "I saw Leo throwing a chew toy for Argentum the other day. And Argentum actually grabbed the toy instead of Leo's hand."

"Gods, you guys are being ridiculous," Reyna said, still looking flustered. "Who Aurum and Argentum like is really not that important."

"But is it true?" Percy asked, grinning.

"Ridiculous," Reyna repeated stubbornly.

"Come on, Reyna, you have to have noticed," Jason said.

Reyna sighed loudly. "It's only because he fixed them once," She said quickly. Her cheeks were pink. "They were both coughing up oil fluid and stuff."

"Are you sure?" Hazel asked. "The other Vulcan kids used to take care of them all the time and Aurum and Argentum still bark at them,"

Suddenly, there was a crashing sound from the doorway. After a few seconds, Leo stuck his head around the door, looking sheepish and pleased at the same time.

"It's alright, everyone. I know you guys were so worried about me," He grinned. "But the statue didn't hit me,"

"You knocked over a statue?!" Reyna said, half rising out of her chair.

"Relax, your highness," Leo said, holding out a hand to stop her, "I caught it before it hit the ground," He sank into a chair.

"Hey, we were just talking about you, Leo," Percy said.

"Yeah, apparently Aurum and Argentum actually like you," Jason said grudgingly.

"Is that supposed to be weird?" Leo grinned, "Who on earth doesn't like me?"

Everyone snickered at that comment. It was exactly the kind of thing you could expect from Leo Valdez.

The group eventually moved on to other topics, and Aurum and Argentum and their liking of Leo were soon forgotten. But that was the first time that it occurred to Piper that there might be something more than a fluency in Spanish and a few repair jobs between Reyna and Leo. After all, Reyna had still been blushing even after they started talking about the weather tomorrow and the most recent swordfight. And she could have sworn Leo had been looking right at Reyna when he asked who on earth didn't like him.
