Your Flame (Leo x Reader)

Bonding Better

He raised an eyebrow. "Weird that you pointed at my lips and not anywhere else...." I scoffed. "Don't get any ideas Chuckles, I don't need any more perverts around me." I said in a monotone voice. And it's true. A few hours here and I already have guys looking at me with perverted smirks. And I'm pretty sure Chuckles knew that too.

He only blushed and rubbed the back of his neck. "Do you just wanna- walk around or something?" he mumbled. I shrugged my shoulders and nodded yes. We got up and left the campsite. Little did I know that someone was watching us the entire time.

Leo's P.O.V
Holy gods why am I so nervous around her??
I try and held back my quivering tone and said "So.....how are you doing?" "Fine I guess" she calmly says. "Oh.... well so am I!" I spoke in a cheerful manner.

We walked around the camp and talk at the same time. Well, it wasn't really a conversation if you're the only one talking the most. She just looked bored all the time. We ended up near the beach even. I smiled and jogged all the way to the shore. I turn around to see (Y/N) uninterested.

"Well aren't you going to come? The waves are nice!" I yelled. She looked at me then the waves  then back at me. I grinned widely when she decided to sit right next to me. "......I'm not used to this....place" she said calmly. I raised an eyebrow. Curiosity intensifying inside me. "Why not?" I asked.

She didn't say anything. She only just looked at the ocean. I sigh and laid down, staring at the stars. "The Stars sure are pretty, aren't they?" (Y/N) said.
"Well not as pretty as you...." I said out loud. She immediately turned around and looked at me, shocked.

Crap I was talking out loud!!!! RED ALERT RED ALERT!!!

I sat straight up, immediately blushing tomato red. "That's not what I meant!!" I said. "I mean.....um......I......" I looked down in embarrassment.

Silence overwhelmed us....

Out of nowhere I feel a pat on my head. I look up to see (Y/N) calmly ruffing up my hair softly with her hand. "You have sand in your hair" she said. I snickered for a few....then started to chuckle...then later on just laughing mad hard.

Tears swelling in my eyes. I turn around to see a cloudy (Y/N) looking confused. "I have no idea how you do it" I finally say. She raised an eyebrow. "Do what? I didn't really do anything."

(Y/N) P.O.V
"Do what? I didn't really do anything" I said. He stared at me for a few then turned around. "Nothing....never mind" he said.

I didn't really care so I shrugged it off. I decided to look up at the sky. billions and billions of stars twinkling under the night sky. "I gotta admit..." I said. "This is a great spot for night seeing." Leo dramatically gasped and said "Is (Y/N) showing GRATITUDE?!?!?! Holy mother of GODS!!!!" I only looked back at him with a cold glare. He ended his dramatic scene then and there. I sigh and looked back at the ocean from the beginning.

This place......it feels too familiar.....

-Flashback time-

"Mommy!!! Daddy!!! Look at what I found!!" You cheerfully said. Your dad was near so you ran over to him first. "Look daddy!! I found one!!!" You said again. He chuckled. "My little (N/N) what did you find?"

(N/N) = Nickname

"I found this!!" You opened your hands to show a baby r turtle, resting calmly on your palm. Your dad was shocked. "Daddy.... why isn't it moving?" You said in a sad tone.

He looked at you with sad eyes and hesitated of saying the truth. He then patted on the baby turtle and calmly said "He's just sleeping." You tilted your head in confusion. He picked you up and brought you to the shore. You weren't scared of the water, so you didn't flinch when he dropped you down. "Go on." He said while sitting down. "Set the turtle free." You looked at him confused. "But he's sleeping. How will he ever know his way home?" You asked. "He'll wake up." He said with a smile.

You did as you were told and let that baby sea turtle into the waves. It didn't take a while for that baby sea turtle to wake up. It started swimming back to the ocean.

Your dad sighed in relief and put you on his lap. "Can you do me a favor?" You nodded your head vigorously. "Everytime you come to the shore- I want you to promise me to bring that turtle back to its home." he said. "But how will I know there's going to be a turtle there?" You asked.

He hugged you tightly.
"There will always be one, I promise."

Here in this flashback I didn't say any facial features of your godly father cuz I'm not revealing it YET- continue

-Flashback ends-

Bored, I stand up to walk away- but just then...I saw a baby sea turtle lying on the shore. I slowly walked over to notice that is was the same turtle years ago..... Hearing Leo's calls of my name snapped me out of my trance.

"Hey wait up!!" He said. The turtle was lying there. Without hesitation, I lifted it up. At this point Leo was standing right next to me. He sighed at the sight of the turtle. "(Y/N)...it's dead, why are you holding it?" He said.

"My father used to take me and my mom to the beach. One day...when I was young....I found this same exact turtle lying there." I said. I walked up closer to the shore.
"He said to let it be free and swim back to the shore. Saying that it will swim back home." I placed the sea turtle gently on the ocean waters- which were now calmer than before.

"And it did."

Not even a minute came by when I saw the turtle shook itself up, and swam away. I saw Leo utterly amazed at what he just witnessed. I rolled my eyes. "I should be heading back to the Hermès cabin.... it's almost time to sleep anyways."

Leo smiled lightly.
"How did you do that (Y/N)?"
I stopped and turned around with a smug look on my face.

"Because I can Chuckles."
