Hey guys! It's finally hols and I'm so sorry I didn't upload this chapter till now but I was sooooooo busy.. Anyways, I'm here and now for the HOTTEST CHAPTER AS YEt; LEo Valdez and Calypso as a pair.. XD Even I'm excited.. So, let's go on... Happy Reading!

Leo's eyes searched all over the place but he couldn't spot her. He'd asked Reyna, Jason and Frank but no one could tell where she was.

Well, if she doesn't want to be found, Leo thought, I might as well give up on finding her. He tugged at the collar of his shirt as he always did when he was either hot or dissatisfied with himself. At this moment he was both. Leo decided he would go out of this messy hall, with couples sprawling over each other, and into the cool night for some fresh air.

And so he did. He walked out of the hall and down the stairs into the brilliant garden lit with white lights from the lamp posts and the moon. He strolled among the soft grass in his black boots and took a deep breath. The air smelled fresh, compared to the congested hall and of roses which grew on bushes nearby.

But, there was something that made the scene seem sweeter than it already was, filled with moon beam rays and roses and flowers. It was a voice, the sweetest he had ever heard. It came from the place where the garden bent around the corner. He moved slowly towards the voice, careful not to disturb the person or give any warning. As he turned round the corner, he saw a girl with caramel colored hair, in a beautiful orangish-yellow dress, colored like sunsets, kneeling down and cradling a flower. She seemed to be in her own world stroking the leaves and flower petals and singing to them as if they were small children.

This scene may have seemed childish but somehow the voice made it all unnecessary to think of. He leaned against the wall, enraptured by the melodious voice. The surprise that followed caught Leo off. As he racked his brains to think where he had seen this dress before, the answer came to him suddenly.

"Calypso!" he cried out before he could stop himself. The figure turned with a startled look on her face and indeed, it turned out to be Calypso. The horror turned to embarrassment and then to anger. She stood up and strode up to Leo, "What are you doing here?" She asked with her face red but her mouth screwed up as if in anger.

Leo got over his surprise and grinned, putting his hands up. "Hey, I was just standing here getting the air and you were singing. So, I guess it was just a candlelight affair, only there are no candles so a moonlight affair, I guess."

Calypso opened her mouth as if to retort back but bit back and started laughing. Her laugh was breezy and so infectious Leo couldn't help joining in. When they finally stopped, Leo remarked, "Thank the Gods, I thought you were gonna chew my head off."

Calypso regained her angry expression, only now the embarrassed and angry blush was gone, and it seemed she was only faking it. "Leo Valdez, I'm telling you. Do not creep over me like that. I hate it, especially when..." She looked away as if she was uneasy to say anything more.

"Especially when what? When you're singing?" Leo asked in a soft voice. "You don't have to. You sing beautifully."

"I- I do?"

Leo shrugged his shoulders in response. "Yes. Much better than I do, in fact. I can't even sing the low keys, let alone the high ones. I'll probably sound like a donkey."

Calypso smiled. "You would. But ...thanks. Nobody has ever complimented me on that before."

"That's probably because you're too shy and meek around people to sing."Leo noted.

"That's actually true." Calypso laughed. "Do you know you're the only one who has heard me sing yet? Or maybe not the only one, but one of the two people, the first being my Mother."

Leo smirked, "I'm glad to know that, Sunset."

Calypso pouted. "Why in the name of Gods do you call me Sunset? It's not funny."

Leo held up his hands. "Whoa, whoa. Calm down. I don't mean it as an insult. It's supposed to be a nice thing. It means you're as fiery as the sunset you know, as bright as the sun. Plus, your gown induces it."

Calypso looked down at her dress, still not seeming to think it a compliment. "Then, I'm gonna call you something too." Leo shrugged. "Hmm.. What about Fire."

"Fire? What made you think of that?"

"I don't know. Just the first thing that came to my mind." She blushed a little while she said this for no reason.

Leo smirked again and put on a thoughtful tone. "You know what I think? I think you said that 'cuz fire is hot and so am I."

"Oh, you are so not hot." Calypso replied blushing furiously.

"Really? Then why are you blushing?" Leo grinned staring down at her.

With a seemingly indignant "I'm not!" and a spreading blush on her face she fled to the safety of the hotel, leaving Leo grinning happily to himself.

"Well, that's a start." He muttering while he rubbed his hair, making it as messy as it usually was. Little did he know of Calypso leaning on the door of lift staring at herself smiling with rosy cheeks in the mirror that stood in front of her.

So, that was it! How do you like it?! Please tell.. please please please do .. cuz I love this chapter myself... LEOOOO~! 3
