hullo, all. this chapter will be purely caleo, yay. i'm getting help (inspiration) from fanart since i'm sick and feeling utterly unimaginative.

CALYPSO POV (first person)

I've been feeling so alone lately- it sounds all "Oh, great, this is gonna be one of those mushy, deep things." But, sadly, it's pure truth.
A few weeks ago, a boy, scrawny, ruffled curly black hair, beautiful eyes, fire-proof, son oh Hephaestus showed up on my island, Ogygia. His name was Leo Valdez, and he was unlike any other hero I've ever met.

Sure, I've fallen in love with my share of hero's over the years- but Leo, he- he was different. He carried no weapon, he longed for no girl, he kept his distance when I wanted him to. He spent his time trying to build a boat to get back to his boat- I know, I'm confused, too. I guess he has loved ones on that boat. But, this one time, he was shirtless...
Anyways, he was truly stuck for quite some times since I just hated him at first. The magical raft didn't show up until we managed to built our own magical raft- then was when I developed my feelings for Leo.

When he was about to go, promised me he'd come back for me. He promised, and I could tell that if there was one promise this boy was determined keep, it was this one. A minute before the raft was packed and about to leave, I kissed him. When we broke apart, he left, clearly dazed by the kiss, but more determine than ever to succeed.
And I think he loves me back.

So, yes, there's the most recent of my many, many sob stories, but the one I've felt most connected to. He's going to keep this promise, and I know it. I can feel it. Can you ever feel, when you've met someone, and you cannot stop thinking about them? They're on your mind every second of every day, never ever leaving your head. Their voice, the distant memories you have of their appearance- never ceasing to exist in your mind. Can you feel when the person feels the same way? I can, and dear gods, I hope he can, too. I hope he can hear my voice, see my face, feel the kiss linger, every second of everyday, just like I can. And gods, I hope he doesn't break his promise.

I've been crying for hours now, since I discovered his charred shirt yesterday. He has to come back. He just has to.

I've been crying for so long, I'm starting to hear things. It's almost like a giant ship is approaching...
And, oddly enough, I can hear him yelling my name- wait, he never yelled my name.

Argo \\, giant ship, coming back for me... no, no I must be hallucinating. He can't be hear; I must be lovesick.

"CALYPSO!" it's getting louder now, I can feel his presence.

I whip around, and much to my surprise, a gigantic Greek warship is landing about 70 yards away from where I'm standing.
And much to my surprise, Leo Valdez is standing on behind the wheel, jumping and screaming like a madman.

He's here, oh gods, he's actually here. The ship just landed. I can make out figures behind him- around six, but the only thing I'm paying attention to is Leo. He actually came back for me. No hero has ever come back for me. He just jumped off his huge Greek warship- oh gods he just jumped off his huge Greek warship.

"Oh- LEO!" I scream as I run to him to see if he's okay. "Oh gods, are you okay?" I ask him as I help him up. He just jumped two stories, but he's still grinning.

"Yes, I am defiantly okay. I am more than okay. I am fabulous. I am terrific. I am-" I manage to shut him up by kissing him again. He seems confused, like What do I do now? kind of confused, but he catches on and kisses me back. He's still grinning.

I see his friends just got off the ship. Tall, blonde boy with electric blue eyes, choppy-haired girl with color changing eyes, tall, muscular boy with black hair, short, curly brown haired girl with golden eyes, tall, curly blonde haired girl with stormy gray eyes, tall, ruffled black hair boy with sea-green eyes- oh gods. Leo mentioned he knew Percy. I didn't know that he knew him well enough that were on this quest together. Percy looked uncomfortable and laced his fingers through the blonde haired girl's- who must be Annabeth. They climbed back aboard the ship, Percy talking and Annabeth having a sudden look of realization sweep across her face. The blonde boy and rainbow-eyed girl had their arms laced through the others, and they went off to explore. The black haired boy and the golden eyed girl held hands, then followed the blonde boy and rainbow eyed girl.

Leo notices me eyeing them. "Oh, them? Not enough time to drop them off at home. Um, their names are Jason, Piper, Frank, Hazel, Annabeth and Percy." He says quickly. "Ignore them."

"Okay," I laugh. We spend most of the day wandering, occasionally kissing. We chat a lot, there's still a lot to know about one another.
We spend about 36 hours on Ogygia."Wait!" he says. "I came here to get you off this island. C'mon, let me give you a tour of the ship."
When we board the Argo \\, the rest of his friends are already there. It takes us a good five tries to get off of the island with me aboard, but the gods remember their promise to free me.
No matter how long ago they made their promise, this is the best way to leave behind my old prison.

Ahahaha, like it? turns out i was feeling imaginative. i was shaking writing it, actually. i made myself ship caleo. should i keep writing more romantic ones like these? I enjoyed it. oh, and, if theres a bunch of line breaks after this, my computer's being weird, I apologize.
