Leo's POV
To say I was upset would have been an understatement. I was furious I had just gotten my Sunshine back to camp and was ready to relax when all of a sudden, we had another quest. I couldn't even take Fetus with us because he was still being repaired. I was so angry I didn't even notice my hair was on fire until Calypso tapped my shoulder and smirked.
"You know you're cute when you're angry." She said I smirked "Oh really."
"Yes, you look like a roasted tomato with your face so red and your hair on fire." She said smirking.
I frowned, "Gee, thanks Sunshine, I appreciate it." I grumbled, but was soon smiling when she kissed me.
"You know I love you." she said and I smiled even wider.
"And I love you my beautiful Sunshine" I said.
It had only been 3 days since we had returned to camp upon Fetus my awesome, supersized, dragon. Before we had returned though we had stopped to do a few quick repairs on Fetus since he had been injured in the fight against Gaea. It was just enough to allow us to return to camp with a few stops along the way. I had a few priorities to take care of before I returned. I introduced Calypso to quite a few modern things including fast food, arcades, and the movies. She loved it. We had a fantastic time and were sad when we had to head back, but I knew it was time. When we arrived I was surprised to learn how little time had actually passed since I had died and then found Calypso. When we flew in, we were nearly shot down by the camps defenses till they saw the familiar golden underside of Fetus (which also had a sign that said Wassup? with a smiley face on it since Annabeth vetoed the idea last time) and heard Jason yell "Hold your fire, I believe it is a friend." We landed in the archery ring and nearly flew off since Fetus desperately needed repairs to his legs and underside. As I slid off I nearly fell over when a figure with choppy brown hair and a red feather in her hair nearly tackled me.
"I can't believe you're alive!" she cried into my shoulder, she suddenly pulled back and punched me…hard…right where her head had been moments before. I groaned in pain and frowned at her.
"What was that for?! I asked while I rubbed my sore shoulder.
"Why didn't you come back sooner!? You've had every one worried sick! We thought you were dead! Don't you understand that! It felt like I had lost my brother and yet here you are two months later as though it's nothing!" she sobbed as she once again cried into my shoulder while pounding my back with her fists half heartedly.
I had felt like she had stabbed me in the chest. I hadn't really thought anyone would miss me so much. I was the 7th wheel I wasn't important I was just…me. Yet the way she cried made me realize that I had left something behind when I had died. My family.
Suddenly another pair of arms wrapped around me and I was lifted up into great big bear hug. It was Jason who was laughing. Just as suddenly I was wrapped in a giant group hug that included all my siblings, friends, and even people I didn't know. I was overwhelmed by the amount of happiness radiating through the group. I heard so many things being said all around me.
"Welcome back Valdez…It's the super sized Mcsizzle…You owe me $10…Hey commander tool belt…It's great to see you home...You're a hero…" and so on. I was home. I was missed. I began to laugh and cry. Until I remembered something I had forgotten. I squirmed out of the hug and walked back over to Fetus. I reached up and grabbed the pretty hand that reached for me. She slid into my arms and I was once again overwhelmed, but this time by her amazing cinnamon smell.
"Everyone meet Calypso, she is the reason I was gone so long. I rescued her from her island and now she is mine." I smirked at the last part but received a smack on the back of the head. I winced once again, but continued to smile.
Once again voices came from all over. "Nice one Valdez…Where'd you pick her up… there's no way…she's hot…" I half heartedly glared at the last one but the smile was still on my face.
All of a sudden my vision caught sight of a tall figure with dark hair join the group. He froze and I set down Calypso. As I began to walk towards him my hair once again on fire I felt a hand fall on my shoulder. I shrugged it off the first time heading straight for Perseus Jackson. He had broken my Sunshine's heart and he was not going to pay. Once again a hand rested on my shoulder and I turned to see who it was. It was Calypso with understanding in her eyes. She pulled me back as I calmed down and calmly walked over to him. He seemed to have the decency to look ashamed. As he stared down at his feet she continued to walk over to him, until she was standing right in front of him. He looked up and I could see how upset he was and my anger towards him dissolved just the tiniest bit. "Calypso I'm so sorry. I-I thought that the Gods would follow up on their deal. I guess they didn't. I'm so sorry. Please forgive me. I never meant for you to have had to stay there." He again looked into her eyes and she just smiled. "Percy I know that you did not leave me on purpose. I was just so lonely and angry. I accept your apology." She said.
He looked up, but still did not smile. "Calypso, can I ask you something?"
"Yes, of course." She asked with a slightly confused expression.
"Why did you curse Annabeth? Why not just curse me?" he asked with a look of great pain and tears in his eyes.
With a startled expression she answered "I-I-I was just so upset I didn't ever think anything would come of it. Why do you ask?"
"When we were in-in Tartarus she killed an arai a-a curse was put on her that made her blind to me. She was forced to wonder why I had left her. Every time I would approach she would disappear and be moved to a new place. When I called her she couldn't hear me. I-I almost lost her. She almost dies because I couldn't reach her." He whispered the last part with a look of such pain that he seemed to barely able to contain it. No one had ever heard so much about their journey before because it caused them both so much pain. A gasp escaped Calypsos mouth as tears raced to her eyes. All of my anger toward Percy disappeared at this moment. Annabeth laid a hand on Percy's shoulder and seemed near tears. Calypso ran to them and began to sob into their shoulders.
"I'm so sorry! I didn't mean for this to happen!' she continued to sob into their shoulders. They both stood stone still until Annabeth slowly hugged her back and also began to cry. Percy just looked on with a sad, broken look upon his face. When they broke apart Annabeth looked at her with a sad look upon her face, but both said nothing.
Soon everyone began to celebrate and the mood was lifted. It had turned into a day of happiness once again.
I was brought back to the present by her lips meeting mine once again causing small automatons to start dancing in my chest. When we broke apart I grabbed her hand and took her to go pack.
