So I was bored and I decided to write a prequel to the only one. So review for the sake of Leo. I don't own this, Rick does.
Calypso needed him, plain and simple. After he had left she had fallen in to at state of depression. He had opened her mind up to so many things. Jeans, mechanics and the idea that maybe she could get out of here. It was a naive hope but then again when she was born ,so were cellular phones. He was the first boy to ever break the hard shell around her heart. Oh, she was had crushes, many of those, but they all left without a second glance. Even Percy. After they had left she had cried, but she was back to being normal after a week of depression. But Leo had stayed in her heart clinging on to the fragile strings that most men played like a guitar. How could she have been so stupid? She mentally curses herself. As her mind wanders she imagines what could happen if Leo came back. Him, sitting with his arms around her on the beach watching the sun set as he played with her hair. Or him kissing her across the rebuilt dinning table.
"Stop!" She shouted. The invisible servants flittered away. " I hate you Zeus! Can't even give me any real company! WHY?" Why. That was the big question here. WHY was she cursed like this, WHY did Leo have to leave? Sometimes she wondered why she went on like this living alone with only the birds to keep her company. At times like this she remembers that her point in life is to be the biggest "what if" in a hero who landed heres life. To be forever alone.
She went on like this for weeks, day after day. Sometime she would wake up clutching a knife. Nights like that scared her. During the day she cooked and cleaned and built, anything to keep her busy. She almost didn't notice the bronze dragon flying overhead. Looking, searching for something or someone. After three days of it hovering, it landed on the beach, crushing the newly rebuilt dinning table.
" Calypso! Calypso! Sunshine?" At the sound of that familiar voice she ran out and let herself get caught up in his arms.
" Leo." She croaked. " oh gods, you look awful. What happened? How did you get back?"
" That doesn't mater now. I'm back and this time to stay." he said squeezing her tighter. She breathed in his familiar scent. " I'm home." With those word he led her in to the cave. While she fixed him some dinner he explained what had happened. "We were in Greece, on top of Mount Olympus, and gods, Cali, there were so many monsters and we whirled though them and..." He faltered. " Gaea was there. She almost killed me. So many were lost. Nico the one who put her back to sleep. It killed him." He buried his head in his hands.
" Leo, It wasn't your fault. He chose it." She said carefully.
" I know, but it hurts so much, how can I survive it? How." His voice came out muffled due to his hands in the way.
" you have me, forever and always. "
" The gods gave me one wish after. It was to return here and to be allowed to stay with you forever." He said. " if that's okay with you."
" oh Leo, of course it is. But why? Why would you give up your life for me?"
"Because I love you." He said sweetly. " So we can open up Leo and Calypsos workshop and home for lost demigods. Cider and stew. Music. Spontaneous combusting into flames. With a laugh she wrapped her arms around him and said the three words that he had heard all to little; I love you.
