Leo knew he was tired. His hands were always busy, but now he could barely occupy them with anything because they felt so shaky. His heart felt like it was going to pump out of his chest, but not before his eyelids slammed closed from the weight of his exhaustion.

Letting a yawn escape from his mouth, Leo stumbled to the door. He quietly slid it shut all the way and turned the lock. Leo never liked to sleep in his cabin. First off, it was a disaster zone and he wouldn't be able to rest until it was clean. And if the whole point was to get some rest, then it would be stupid to go there. Ever since he camped out at Ogygia, he couldn't get used to a bed. If he slept under the stars, there was a higher chance of monsters attacking him in his sleep or getting kidnapped. Maybe both if he was lucky. So, napping on the floor of the little engine room was the next best option.

He didn't even get the chance to have a late-night worrying session before he fell asleep. Leo's body curled up into a defensive ball and the demigod nightmares took hold.

Not me going on a writing spree, pumping out words like a crazy person because I've just gotten over a writer's block that lasted about a month. That's why I'm publishing so much so quickly sorry. Also, I KNOW this chapter is short as heck (just over 200 words) but the next chapter will be longer to make up for it. :3

I swear on the River Styx - well, maybe not that much - I swear on Hades gym shorts that I will get to the real angst soon! Again, tysm for sticking around to read this and as always, I appreciate reviews 3 -Apollo
