I'm soooo sorry I've left this story for so long! I've been SUPER busy and to be honest I forgot about it! Please note; this may change from a K+ to a T. No rape, nothing like that! Just maybe some kind of light hint! Also, I may be starting a HP fan-fiction soon ... OK, today!
Leo chased after Calypso, the words "I'm sorry!" stuck in his throat. But that girl was fast. By the time he had left, Calypso was gone.
'Annabeth? Annabeth! I'm sorry!" a voice came floating in: Percy. Looking upset, he was staring around frantically, as if expecting Annabeth to emerge from thin air.
A kind of burning hurt pierced through him, and Leo automatically said, ''What to you want?"
Percy spun around to face him, then, ignoring what he had just said, "Have you seen Annabeth?"
"No. Have you seen -''
But before Leo could finish, Percy burst out, "I'm such an idiot! I don't know ... I wanted to tell her about the college in Rome, and things went down-hill from there! I don't know! It seems all I can do today is -"
"Hurt her?" finished Leo, his rage fading. "I know what it feels like."
"Really? Why - what happened with you and Calypso?"
"First it was you ... then it was Reyna ..."
"What? Me?"
"I mean - I thought she had it for you ..."
"What? Look, you're the guy who freed her from that island - Ogygia! Your the one who came back! And Calypso has a good heart, she won't be as cruel to leave you after all you've done for her! Believe me, in these kinds of things, you need to have trust!"
Percy Jackson said this too fast - it was a moment before Leo processed it all.
"So - so there's nothing between -"
"No!"
"You never felt -"
"No!"
Some of Leo's quick-wit came back to him, and he said with a flair of amusement, "You should take your own advice, Son of Poseidon,"
"Yeah," said Percy thoughtfully, "I should. Well, I think we both have some apologizing to do!"
"Leo! Leo!" Calypso yelled.
She was going from cabin to cabin to cabin, asking if anyone had seen him. She went to Jason and Reyna, as well.
"No, we haven't. He left to go after you," said Jason.
So far, the most insufferable cabin so far had been Hermes' - the catcalling had started from the minute she opened her mouth to form the words, "Have you seen - ?"
Calypso went around to Cabin 5. Oh no, she thought, Not these idiots! I'll just skip this cabin ...
Too late. She'd missed her chance, because a minute later the words "Hey, sunshine!" hung in the air.
Oh no. What now?
"Shut up. Leave me alone." said Calypso flatly, storming away.
"Oi! You looking for that wimp? Yeah - er - he's in here!"
Calypso stopped. They're lying said a strong voice in her head.
"Oh really? I'm not an idiot."
"No, really - he needed to get something from here, he left it here a while ago - it was some sort of Welcome Back card."
Calypso paused for a moment. Welcome Back? For her, maybe? That seemed - believable. But still, Leo had warned her that this cabin was full of lies and trickery.
"Come on in! He'll be out in a minute!" said a different voice.
Calypso didn't move. Then she turned on her heel and to Cabin 5, hesitant.
"What are you waiting for? You have an invitation!"
Calypso was now staring at a bulky boy who she would have easily found attractive, if it weren't the look of i'm-better-than-you on his face. She clambered into the cabin.
It was a mess.
Clothes were lying here and there, and the disgusting smell of sweat filled Calypso's nose.
The door snapped behind her.
"What?" she spun around. The two Ares' boys were staring at her maliciously.
What a fool she'd been.
