Chapter 4

Hazel POV

Sitting on the beach was ok, but being with Leo was amazing. I met up with him when he and Jason were debating who would sleep on the floor. I barged in with, them saying:

"Dude! Can't you just fly in you're sleep! I need my master's sleep!"

"Yeah! I would LOVE! To wake up with flames all around me!"

"That only happened once! And Percy put it out!"

"He won't even get out of his room if someone was dying, he's busy can't you hear it, he and Nico are there?"

"Ew! Don't bring that up!"

"Well at least-"

I knocked on the door, so they knew I was there. They looked my way and Jason said "Hi Hazel. Why did you come here?"

"There's a volcano erupting so I wanted to know if any of you want it go with me?"

Jason knew I had a crush on Leo, so he did a nice thing and said" Leo you should go with Hazel or I'll take you with me to be punched by Percy and Nico, to complain about our room."

"Man, I was going to go with Hazel anyway, but I'll bring you back an ice pack for you're eye, when you get punched."

"Thanks Leo, you're a good friend." Jason said sarcastically.

The way to the beach we just focused on the volcano not each other, which brings us back to this moment. As I said going on the beach was ok but being with Leo was amazing.

Once we got to the beach we sat on the black sand and watched the volcano erupt on another island. Leo and I did this often because he was fire (for lava) and I was rock (for volcanic debris). Also we were the only ones who weren't scared of volcano's except Nico , who had no interest in them.

We sat on the beach just watching for around 2 hours, during that time we said no word to each other.

Though some of time, I look at him wishing I had enough courage to hold his hand or tell him how I feel about us.

We walked back (not forgetting to get an ice pack). Then it happened. Leo stopped walking and said "Hazel what's goin on"

"Nothing … really" I mumbled

" It doesn't seem like nothing, you've been tense around me for month's, it feels like that awkward tension is back."

"It doesn't matter anymore I'm fine." I lied and of course he knew I lied.

"Come on Hazel" he rolled his eye's "tell me".

I got caught up with the moment, so I told him everything. How I secretly had a crush on him for 2 years, how I don't want him to hit me in the face.

But, he did something I thought I'd never hear "Hazel I like you too".

Once I heard that every bone in was happy and I couldn't help but smile. But, before I could do anything I kissed him. I never thought I would ever have that feeling again.

I was prefect. But, of course someone HAD to ruin it !
