Leo has been busy his first day back at camp. He fixed Festus' broken leg, spent a little time with his brothers and sister in the forges, and helped Calypso get settled in Rachel's cave. Chiron let her stay in the big house the night they arrived, but when word was sent to Camp Jupiter that Leo was back, Rachel offered her place. After all, Calypso is used to living in a cave, and it would be the most like home. Leo also gave his girl the grand tour of camp with special emphasis on the bunker. She was impressed with not only the size but with all the fancy electronics. She especially liked the oversized banner that said Leo and Calypso's Garage. Well, she liked it except for the order of the names. Now he's waiting on Jason to stop by so the best friends can catch up on things.
"It's so good seeing you in here," Jason says as he walks through the open garage door with a huge grin on his face.
"Hey Four Eyes," Leo says wiping his hands on a shop towel to give Jason a hug.
"You were serious about the garage," Jason says pointing to the banner. "Calypso and Leo's Garage, sounds good."
"I promised her just before I left," Leo tells him. "We fell in love working together on a way to get me off of her island. She's an amazing weaver and wiz at wiring."
"I'm glad you found a way back to her," his best friend says. "How'd you do it anyway? No one was ever supposed to find Ogygia twice."
"Remember when we caught the Kerkopes?" Leo asks.
"Yeah."
"The astrolabe I found was built by Odysseus. He built it to try and get back to Ogygia, but he could never get it to work. He was missing the one thing that would hone in on the island, a crystal from her cave. I had one," he explains.
"Was she surprised when you returned?" Jason asks.
"Nah, I promised her," he says with a grin.
"But she'd been disappointed so many times before," his buddy says.
"I swore on the River Styx. She knew I had to come back for her."
"I'm surprised you didn't just stay with her. I mean, wouldn't you be immortal there," Jason suggests.
"Probably, but I couldn't let my peeps think I was dead for the rest of your lives. Besides, she was totally ready to get off that island. In fact, she already had her bags backed," Leo says with a wink.
"I don't want to make you upset or anything, but now that she's free, do you think she'll really stay with you forever?" Jason asks his best friend. "I mean, she couldn't do any better, but she's a goddess."
"You think she was using me just to get off Ogygia?"
"I hope not," Jason replies. "I want the two of you to live happily ever after. You deserve it. I'm just a little concerned about Apollo being here in camp."
"I'm not worried about Apollo," Leo says with a grin. "My girl has way better taste then that egomaniac." Now Leo's grin leaves his face as he continues, "If I'm worried about anybody, it's Percy. She was in love with that guy."
"Trust me," Jason tells him, "Percy is too in love with Annabeth to think about Calypso again. After their trip through Tartarus together, nothing is going to come between the two of them."
"Yeah, you're right. I mean Percy told me he'd do anything to help me get back to her," Leo agrees.
"You deserve this," Jason says giving Leo another big hug.
