A/N: hey guys! I'm finally done with school so I'm gonna be back to somewhat regular updates. I hope you guys enjoy this oneshot!

Leo's P.O.V

I walk down the street alone. I look around and I sigh. I can't go home...I can't go back. Calypso will tell them all now and they'll hate me. I see a church and see some people yelling about sin...about people who aren't different to anyone else.

I sit down with my mum at the kitchen table with my aunt. Rosa looks at me and then at her son. She looks at me with an evil look. "Esperanza, why did you give birth to that?" she asks and my mum looks shocked. "I mean he is tainted by sin, is he...homosexual?" she whispers and she shudders. My mum grabs my hand and storms out. "Insensitive judgemental..." she looks down at me. She smiles and meets my height. "You were made perfect, like everyone else my lion, don't let them change that" she says and takes us home.

I sigh and shake my head. Why can't I just be me? I mean...I can't. I begin to walk back to camp and I sigh. Am I really wrong? A diablo? Just because I love both genders? I mean Nico is gay and everyone supports him, but will they be as accepting? Something grabs my arm and I see Nico. He looks at me. He smiles at me and I hold back everything. "oh, hey" I say and fake a smile. He looks happy, but confused. "what's wrong?" He asks, his face full of worry. I sigh and I feel the tears wanting to fall. "I'm..." I say and Nico sighs and he shadowtravels us somewhere. It is sunny and I see flags, colours loud and vibrant almost like a flock of birds in the safari. I look at Nico and he smiles. I see multiple coloured flags and see people dancing. "Gender doesn't matter, sexuality doesn't matter...all that matters is love Leo, and we all love you..." Nico says and pulls me towards a stand and he smiles and looks at me. He picks the rainbow flag and he looks at me and I pick the Bisexual flag up. Nico smiles and he buys them and he pulls us towards the people. "Come on" he says and I look around at all the smiling faces. I smile and look at Nico. He...looks different than usual...less closed off. I smile and grab his hand and he looks at me. "Thank you" I say and I look into his eyes and I sigh. "Honestly...I get it Leo, I understand...wanna talk about it sometime?" He asks and I nod and smirk and pull him into the crowd to dance the day away

"There he is!" Piper yell when she sees us entering camp. Nico smiles at me. I see Calypso and she looks disappointed at me. "Leo...I don't understand this" Calypso says and I sigh and see the rest of the seven look at me. "What is there to understand, he is Leo, that's easy enough to understand, even for small minded people" Nico says and he sighs. Calypso looks at me and looks furious. "Leo...are you okay?" Hazel asks and I look at Nico. "Yeah I'm okay" I say and I smile. Jason smiles and Piper does too. I smile. "I'm bisexual Calypso..." I say and she looks shocked and shakes her head. "Then we're over" she says and walks off. I sigh and shrug it off...I am not some diablo like those idiots say I am. I am Leo fucking Valdez, a flaming bisexual Cheeto and nothing can stop me. I smile at Nico who gently squeezes my hand and I smile properly for once in my life.
