-SAVE THE NARGLES

I wish I knew what I was doing. But us demigods don't think that much. We just do it. Ha. Summing up my world. Gods, I sound like Leo. This is bad; This is really bad...

I was standing outside the living room right now with Leo. I was cluching his hand tightly, and so was he. I looked at him, making up a plan at he stared at me. With those dreamy chocolate brown eyes...Oh my freaking gods I am turning into a guy-obsessed Aphrodite girl, for LEO! Off topic.

"OK, here's the plan. You stay here and I will talk to him. Good?" I whispered. That was all I got. I got most of the plans that I followed from Annabeth or Frank.

"That's barely a plan." He contradicted.

"Best either of us got."

"Touche."

I let go of his hand, but I was really dissapointed. I really missed having that secure person to hang on to. He seemed to miss it too. I wish he could come with me. But I needed to do this on my own, well, this part.

I was just going to walk out into the open, but he grabbed onto my hand again. I turned around. I flashed him my angry look.

He looked like his feelings were hurt, I glared at him with a little more sympathy. He smiled a little, but brought my hand up and kissed it ever-so gently. Flickers of red flame trailed up arm from the spot with small puffs of smoke with it, leaing a nice warm feeling behind, like I was sitting in front of a fire place. I wished it would happen again. In return, I kissed him on the cheek. Little bursts of scented breeze that smelled like leaves and cinnamon and autumn went down his skin, and he blushed. I realized I was blushing too.

I let go of his hand again, but now with a little more courage and even more dissapointment. I steadied my breath, and went out into the open.

I walked slowly, not even making a sound, bare feet padding like a cat across the gleaming wooden floor. Mellie and Coach Hedge were nowhere to be seen. Only my dad was in the room. He was watching TV. One of his own, less famous, movies, to be exact. I went and stood right behind him and stood there for a good half-an-hour, making the almost non-existant plan more like a plan. He never noticed me. Surprisingly, Leo was quiet, moving his fingers and playing with his hair and pieces of metal with no sound. OK, he was still the ADHD kid I knew.

The TV turned off, and he sighed and got up. I was still standing there. He was walking oer to the hallway where Leo was, so I spoke then.

"Why do you want me now?"

He turned around in surprise. He smiled. I kept the plain face.

"What do you mean?"

"I mean,you pushed me away for my whole life, now you want me closer. Why?"

"I...was scared about what happened. You have never done anything like that before."

"I know."

We just stood there for a while. All I knew was that I can't be the first one to talk, even with all the questions and

"I am glad you came out."

"I'm not."

"Why? I wanted to see you."

"I knew I had to eventully come out into the world."

"If only you didn't go into the unrealistic."

"I want to go back."

"What do you mean?"

"I want to go back to Camp Half-Blood."

"But I don't want you there. You got into some serious legal trouble because of them, and I was not even alerted."

"But that was the first school where I was happy. I had duties, and expectations. I had friends. I even found out more about Mom."

"I DON'T WANT YOU GOING BACK THERE!" He sternly said.

"THAT WAS WHERE I FOUND MYSELF! I KNOW YOU DON'T LIKE ME BENG THERE, BUT I WAS HAPPY! FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE I WAS CONSTANTLY HAPPY!" I screamed. I was on the bridge of fury. He was being so selfish. Can't he see I was in pain? That it was too much.

"BUT YOU WERE WITH PEOPLE WHO MADE YOU A INTERNATIONAL CRIMANAL AT 15!"

"THEY ARE LIKE MY FAMILY! THEY UNDERSTAND ME MORE THAN YOU DO OR EVER WILL!" Right now m eyes were clouded with tears. Why is the world so cruel?

Dad saw that he hurt me, his eyes grew more kind, and he put his hand on my sholder.

"I just need you here. You need to tell...your friend...to leave. I saw you and him in your bedroom. He can't make you come back. That desision is up to me."

That was it. It was over. Nothing could ever change his mind. But it was not up to him. He does not even know where it is. It is up to me. It always was. I just wanted him to be happy with it.

"I am going back. I have to. I bet Mom would agree with me. Goodbye."

I pushed his hand off my sholder. I then ran and grabbed Leo's hand and went back into my room. I closed and locked the door; it locked now at least, and threw a bunch of clothes into a duffle bag, and grabbed the photo book, dragon, flowers and Katoptris. I made the bed and cleaned it up, so it looked like I was never there. I pulled on some ratty gym shoes. I then climbed out the window. Leo followed me and closed the window. Somehow, he made the window lock from the outside. Then everything hit me.

"Gods, what are we going to do now?" I exclaimed as we climbed down from the roof. I jumped on the ground with Leo right behind me.

"We will have to go back to camp."

"But we do not have any money, or food, or transportation."

"We do not have food, but we have money and transportation."

"What?"

"Follow me."

We jumped the fence that surrounded the mansion and walked down the street, Leo turned sharply into an alley, and I followed him. He pulled out a set of keys, and I saw what he meant by transportation. It was a 1960s blue Mustang.

"Oh my freaking gods, DID YOU BUILD THIS?" I asked excitedly.

"Of course I did, Beauty Queen. It's how I got to your house." He answered as he unlocked the car and opened the passanger door. I stepped in and put on the seat belt as Leo started the car.

"We might have to go to New York, but let's have some fun while it lasts." He said with a cheesy grin.

"I want to go to Houston." I said without realizing it.

"What?" Leo paled.

"We need to face our past. We can go to Oklahoma if we go to Houston."

"OK."

"What are you waiting for, let's go!" I yelled and I threw my hand up as we sped out of the alley and out into our new adventure. Together.
