Leo sat in the mess hall, wearing his cleanest tshirt and jeans. He would've put on "nice" clothes, but he didn't have any on the ship. He couldn't have them in his room, considering it also doubled as a miniture forge, so it was safer to just bring old tshirts and jeans. Although, he had found a blazer in Jason's closet -most likely put there by Piper- and had slung that on in an attempt to smarten up his outfit. It was a bit big, considering Jason was a big, muscular son of Zeus (or Jupiter) and Leo was not. He'd rolled the sleeves up to his elbows so the size difference wasn't so obvious. He'd moved the large table that was often used to the side of the room and instead was sitting at a small table big enough for two that he'd kept in the storage area. In the middle of the table there was a red rose in a vase - he'd found that in Piper's room. He was pretty sure she'd put it there on purpose so he'd find it, since she wasn't big on flowers. He knew this wasn't a date but...he really wanted to think it was a date. He nervously fidgeted while he waited for Calypso, his thoughts going at a million miles an hour. What if she didn't want it to be a date? Maybe I should've said something to tell her I wanted it to be a date? I mean, she probably just wants a normal dinner, not some stupid demingod trying to be romantic. Gods, where's Pipes when you need her...

He'd all but convinced himself that this was a terrible idea and that he should quickly change things back while he still had the time, just as she walked in. He looked up and grinned, his eyes widening slightly. Wow...she was in a similar dress to the one he'd first met her in. Simple, white, Greek style...Her hair fell down in waves down to her shoulders, a thing he rarely saw. Usually, her hair was up in a ponytail so that she could work without her hair getting in the way. He really couldn't help staring like the idiot he was - she looked beautiful.

Calypso smiled, lightly blushing under Leo's stare. She had been nervous that she'd be overdressed, but seeing Leo in the blazer and the small table he'd set up... she realised she'd worn exactly the right thing.

It took Leo a few seconds to once again function like a normal human being. He stood up and pulled Calypso's chair out for her. "Hey."

"Hey." She walked forward and lightly kissed Leo's cheek before sitting down in the chair.

Leo lightly blushed. Gods, how could the others do the whole dating thing and not be blushing every two seconds? Calypso just had to smile at him a certain way and he'd start to go pink. He sat back down in his seat across from her, laying his hand out on the table for her to take like Piper had told him (and showed him - he never wanted to watch so many romance movies in one go ever again). "You look beautiful."

She grinned, taking his hand. "Thank you. You don't look so bad yourself."

He chuckled, "Thanks. Come on, we should eat." He looked down at his plate, happy to see the pepperoni pizza waiting for him. He picked up a slice, biting into it. He quietly moaned - pizza was the best food ever created. He relaised that Calypso wasn't eating, just staring at him in confusion, her head tilted to the side. "What?" He asked once he swallowed down the bite of cheesy, spicy goodness.

"What's that?" She asked after a moment of hesitation. She knew this was going to happen a lot - she was so out of time she wasn't sure what anything was any more. And as eager as she was to learn about the new world, she didn't enjoy being in the dark.

"Pizza." He told her. "You should try some. It's great." He paused for a second before using his pizzaful hand to nudge his plate forward, gesturing that she could take a slice. Oh Gods, the teasing Leo would get when Jason found out. He never shared food, especially not pizza...

She took one of the smaller slices from his plate and slowly bit into it. She uncertainly chewed on it before swallowing, a thoughtful look on her face.

Leo waited, carefully gauging her reaction. "So...?"

She smiled and nodded, "You're right, it's good."

He grinned, "I'm glad you like it."

Calypso's own plate filled with pizza and she started to tuck in.

They sat at the small table for hours, both of them eating many plates of pizza. And then all the ice cream that their stomachs could handle. During the whole thing they always had their hands joined. Most of the time they talked, but every so often they would just quietly sit there, sometimes watching the images coming from Camp Half Blood, other times they would just gaze at each other. If Piper could see them she would probably squeal with delight at the romantic scene before her.

At the end of the night Leo walked Calypso to her room, the couple still holding hands. "I'll, uh, see you in the morning." He said quietly before leaning down to softly kiss her.

She gently kissed him back, "Night Leo." She murmured as she pulled away. She smiled, gently squeezing his hand before letting go and walking into her room.

He grinned, walking into his own room across the hall. Once inside he did an excited, extremely happy victory dance - one that he would never admit to doing and one that he'd probably die of embarrassment from if anyone ever found out about it. He'd actually done it. He'd found Ogygia, saved Calypso and then went on a date with her! It was the first time everything was really starting to sink in...

He changed out of his date clothes and changed into another old tshirt and pajama trousers, before climbing into bed. He was still smiling as he slipped off to sleep.

Hours laters Calypso stared up at her ceiling. She couldn't sleep, even though she'd been right - the bed was extremely comfortable. She sighed, getting out of bed and leaving her room, quietly padding across the hall to Leo's room. She softly knocked on the door, opening it slightly when she heard no answer. "Leo?" Leo grumbled in his sleep, but didn't wake up.

She felt a pang of guilt for disturbing him, but quietly entered the room, softly closing the door behind her. She tip toed over to his bed. climbing in next to him. She curled up close to him and closed her eyes, jumping slightly when she felt arms wrap around her.

"Hey." He mumbled, smiling sleepily as he looked down at her, his eyes half shut.

"Sorry for waking you. I couldn't sleep..." She whispered, looking up at him, getting hit with another pang of guilt.

"S'fine." He lightly kissed her forehead, cuddling her closer.

She smiled, wrapping her arms around his waist.

"G'night." Leo murmured, closing his eyes.

"Night," Calypso whispered, finally falling asleep a few minutes later.
