A Different Reality (Percy Jackson Fanfiction)

Chp 54 - Leo's POV

(A/N: To @ReadPercyJackson, my consultant about Leo's personality)

Leo was holding a piece of paper and taking notes.

"Again, so we need a cinnamon cake..."

Dylan shouted from under a car.

"Make it double!"

Leo continued his list.

"Coconut pie, lemon pie, a bag of scones, oreo cookies..."

"At least five!"

"I want it too, make it eight!"

"No, fifteen!"

Leo interrupted.

"I'll get twenty, okay? Ryan, what do you want?"

"I don't like sweets, bring me a sandwich"

"What flavor?"

"I don't know. Roast beef, maybe"

Leo picked the money Ryan was handing to him and headed to the bakery on the other side of the street. He was waiting in the line, humming a song, when he heard a hiss behind him. All his demigods instincts turned on.

What is it?

I don't know, maybe a monster. And I don't have any weapons! Gods, how I miss my tool belt now.

What do we do?

Improvise and get ready to run.

He turned but it wasn't a monster. Well, at least didn't look like a monster. It was a beautiful girl with green and purple streaks.

That's odd.

What?

She's looking at me with more hate that most monsters did.

Why is this odd?

Because I always had a gift to be annoying. Most monsters wanted to kill me just to shut me up. It's really flattering knowing that I can piss her off even more before even saying a word.

It's a truly blessed gift.

"WHAT are you doing here? I thought I said to stay away from me"

"No, you didn't"

"Yes, I DID"

"No,you didn't. You said to stay away from your shop and most of all, your flowers"

She rolled her eyes.

"Get. Out"

"Nope"

She was taking deep breaths, and Leo waved the piece of paper he was holding.

"I have a list to order, and I don't want to face Dylan without his cinnamon cake. Make it double"

"Fine! But don't talk to me!"

And she left to a table were she was sitting previously, probably.

What? But she came to talk to us!

Impossible woman!

"Hey, Leoni, can you help me?"

Leo turned to look at Carl.

"Sure, with what?"

"You already finished with your last work, right?"
