I didn't even realise I had fallen asleep until I felt a hand on my shoulder, shaking me awake.

"Cammy. Love, wake up." The person smells like mint and rain with a hint of sweat but in a nice way. I recognise the scent as Leo. Sure enough, when I open my eyes, I see big pools of brown staring at me.

"Good morning, beautiful." I giggle stupidly at the pet name. His fingers trace the outline of my face, sending chills through my body.

"You ready to go home?" His question takes a second to register in my head. Home? I thought Percy was taking me back home.

"What do you mean? Isn't Percy coming?" A small grin stretches across his face.

"He thought it might be nice if I took you home and we could spend some time together tonight." His grin turns sly. I catch his meaning and push him in the chest.

"Nice try, Valdez, but it's not gonna happen. I can move just fine but these bruises don't look like they'll be healing any time soon."

His smile falters and I instantly regret saying anything at all.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that. It's not entirely true, they're fading pretty nicely." I hold my arms out in front of me as if that will prove my point. The patches of green and yellow that cover my skin make us both cringe a little. It's enough for me to hide my arms back under the blanket.

"Anyway. Are you ready to go home? I've got all your stuff in the car already, we've just gotta sign your release papers and then we can go. Is that okay?" My only answer is a nod, earning a warm smile in return.

Leo helps me stand up out of the bed. He helps me get changed but he doesn't look at me body. He just stares into my eyes with a small smile playing on his face, occasionally glancing at my lips and licking his own.

It takes a few minutes but I eventually slip into a pair of grey trackies and one of Leo's black shirts that is way too big on me. But it smells like him and it's really comfortable.

Leo's hands support my waist as he walks me towards the front desk, where we sign the papers and thank the ladies sitting behind the counter.

His hand moves up to my shoulder to support me better as I hobble towards his car.

"Are you okay?" He's trying to hide his smirk but I can see right through him. I scowl.

"I'm fine Mr Sympathetic." I push him off me and stubbornly climb into the car by myself. My injuries aren't that bad. My back is still a little cut up and my arms are still bruised. Okay, my stomach still hurts from when I was kicked but other than that, I'm fine, really.

Leo appears in the drivers seat next to me. A smirk still lingers on his lips and he glances at me out the corner of his eye as he starts the engine and drives me home.

"So, what do you want for dinner? I can make you anything." He winks at me but keeps one eye on the road. My eyebrows raise in disbelief.

"You can cook?" It comes out a little more offensive than I intended but he just laughs it off.

"Of course I can cook. Anything you want." He repeats, waiting for my answer.

"I really want a burger. And I mean, really bad." As if on cue, my stomach growls causing me to blush from embarrassment.

"I can tell. I'll text Percy when we get home and ask if he can go shopping on his way home and pick up some stuff so I can make you a burger." My stomach growls again.

"Or 2." I mumble.

By the time we walk through the front door, I mean hobble through the front door, Leo has texted Percy the shopping list for our dinner. Percy being the way he is said he'll do it under the condition that Leo makes him burgers too. Reluctantly, he agreed.

Seeing me struggle must have struck a nerve in Leo because his face turns soft and he rushes over to me, scooping me up in his arms and carrying me bridal style to the couch. He places me down gently and throws a blanket over me. I giggle when the it tickles the inside of my nose.

"You are absolutely adorable." He boops my nose with his finger, smiles at me and runs off to the kitchen for the gods know what reason.

My hand feels around the couch for the tv remote. After finding the phone Percy lost a year ago and a mouldy Cheeto down the side of the sofa, I find the remote and turn the tv on.

I flick through the channels and, finding nothing interesting on, I switch to Netflix and put on how I met your mother.

"Here you go, hon." Leo comes into the living room and places a glass of water on the coffee table. He kisses my forehead and sits down next to me. I rest my head on his shoulder and relish in the way he smells. His body heat surrounds me and lulls me into a deep sleep.
