Leo's POV

"Valdez!" Percy said, snapping me back to reality.

"Huh, oh what, sorry." I said. "Yeah, um what did you say again?"

"Um. Are you checking out Reyna?" Percy turned around and saw who I was looking at.

"WHAT?! Um no!" I blushed.

"Dude, you're so obvious. Ask her out!" he said.

"Look okay, it's not important, and it's obviously not that easy!" I said. "This never happened okay. Don't tell her anything!"

"Chill, bro." he said. "Your secret is safe with me. I swear on the River Styx."

"Thanks dude!" I said.

"LEO FREAKING VALDEZ!" someone called. I turned around. It was Piper, she probably figured out I put the baby powder in her hairdryer. She wasn't the girliest kid but hey, you still gotta look decent sometimes.

"Gotta go! Bye dude." Percy said, smirking.

I was ready for the longest lecture in my life. I caught Reyna's eye. She was smiling. Probably glad that someone would kill me.

"Hey Piper, I think you got a little something on your face." I said.

"Very funny, Valdez. Very funny." She said glaring.
