Leo inhaled the air from this high above was cool and crisp, and after so many months in New York it smelled clean, fresh to. He opened his eyes to take in the scene, the top deck of the Argo II. Only he and Jason were on this deck, Annabeth And Piper were discussing...well...something and Coach downstairs in the rec room was practising kick boxing, when the old satyr had first told Leo that the ADHD part of him wanted to ask how his short, stubby little legs could ever 'kick', but the rational part of him made him shut up. So of course, with still a long way to go until they reached Frisco, Leo had to annoy somebody, and that somebody just so happened to be a blond headed son of Zeus, (or Jupiter as Jason called himself).

" Hey Sparky!", Leo called as he walked over.

Jason turned to raise his eyebrow questioningly at Leo, but turned back around looking over the railing.

"Soooo watcha thinkin Sparky", Leo exaggerated the nickname as much as he could, making the spar sound longer then adding in a high pitched ky. But Jason just ignored it, and this annoyed Leo that his efforts to annoy were being ignored. Damn, those romans must have taught him well into hiding emotions.

" Oh just thinking if my roman friends want to kill me when I get, you know because I was missing for so long. Wonder if they got a new leader?...", Jason rambled on as Leo stared at him blankly completely forgetting what he'd just asked. Jason had finished his little brainstorm/speech and was now looking at him with concern, waving his hand in front of Leo's face. "You asked what he was thinking" said a little voice inside his head.

"Oh yeah!", Leo shouted snapping his fingers in remembrance, also startling Jason a bit.

"Uh yeah... you ok in there Leo?", Jason asked, but was completely ignored by Leo.

"Don't worry Sparky, They won't hate you, nobody could hate a Sparky", Leo reassured but mostly tried to annoy, as he made every Sparky stand out. Jason finally rolled his eyes in annoyance. Score for the repair boy! Wait did he just call himself that? Whatever he'll get Piper back for it.

"Please don't call me Sparky" Jason answered in a controlled tone. Yes! Now Leo's got him right into his little trap.

"Why? Lightning Man is only your beloved Piper, allowed to call you Sparky?", Leo asked cheekily. Jason's eyes squinted as he glared at Leo.

"She's not", he emphasized the t on the not, "my girlfriend", he stated to Leo

"Awwwwww", Leo moaned like and Aphrodite girl whose favourite soap opera character just died. "She'll be so sad, sooooo sad", said Leo.

Jason's face immediately took on a pained expression, "no I mean... like she's great... but like... roman ... so like...", he stuttered along, much to the amusement of Leo whose was smiling happily, enjoying watching the 'great roman leader', now babbling like an idiot.

"So ya", Jason finished without stuttering, as Leo just smirked.

"Good job Sparks, no stutter no more", Leo commented, ignoring Jason facial expressions completely, which were-by the way- a sign to run for Leo. And in one fluid moment Leo was hurled right off the ship, fortunately close enough the grab the edge of the railing.

"Good job Flame Boy, no fallin no more", Jason said smirking as he leaned over Leo, on the other side of the railing-the side Leo wanted to be on- as he sent Jason a pleading look.

"Er... little help here Jase?", Leo asked hopefully, still hanging on to the railing.

"Naaaa, you'll manage", Jason said as he walked down to the hold area of the ship.

Thank God for those long days at the forges, building his arm strength because Leo was left hanging there for another half an hour. Until Annabeth came- right when his arms were about to give out- ,and reluctantly, helped him up.
