Cal groaned as he got shook awaked, he open his eyes
only to yelp and close them again. Riccaro was to face with Cal, there was only a small gap between the two. "Riccaro I told you, personal space." Cal groaned as he got up, it was definitely a bad idea to sleep on the couch.
Riccaro jumped up and down smiling ear to ear. "Mama Cal is back!" he smiled and continued to jump up and down. Cal just chuckled at his childishness.
Cal slowly got up, he almost fell twice before he could finally get up without falling. Cal walked to his room, eager to get clothes so he could go to the sauna. Thinking off that, he remembered the talk he had with Bryan. Honestly someone needed to get that boy a therapist job, as he was amazing at giving advice. Now that he thought about it he guessed it did make sense that Bryan was an amazing fit for his case, it was about love and Bryan was the son of Aphrodite. He shook his head, deciding to leave those thoughts for later. He snatched his clothes and shut the door behind him.

He arrived at the Asian side of camp and headed to the sauna, he really needed a bath. He rather not use the Egyptian side of camp, as it was inhabited by sharks. Though he supposed they could probably get rid of the sharks as Mikel is never around anyways. He sighed a sigh of relief as he was early enough to be the only person at the sauna, he quickly stripped and put on his towel. He walked into the sauna pool, he sat down and sighed as the tension in his muscles slowly disappeared. He got comfortable, completely forgetting about his worries. The door open, and Cal's head snapped up as he stared into multi colored eyes.
"Oh sorry I didn't realize that anyone else was going to be here, I'll leave." Nad swiftly turned around just as Cal spoke.
"No, it's fine. You can stay." Cal was a little nervous as he was not one to bathe with other people. Nad turned around, and nodded. He was already in a towel, he walked in and sat at the other side.
It was awkward to say the least, both were facing away from each other. Nad was rethinking even going to the sauna, he breathed. Knowing he had to talk to Cal or else it would be awkward for the whole time, he turned and faced Cal. He blushed at the sight he saw, Cal's face was red, most likely with embarrassment, he was biting his lips, probably thinking about how fast he could get out, water was also dripping from his stomach, as he had been at chin level before. To say the least, Cal was honestly probably the cutest guy Nad had ever seen. Nad won't lie he had fallen for the Mint hair demigod awhile ago, he had doubts about Cal liking him back so he never acted on his crush. Though he supposed it was now or never.
"Cal, um. Can we talk?" Nad's voice quivered, the Nordic demigod wasn't one to be nervous or scared. But Cal just brought out a different side of him.
Cal turned his head, he was about to make a snappy comment. But by the look on Nad's face, he knew this was important. "Sure.. What's up?"
Now faze two, he just had to tell him he liked him. That wasn't too hard right? "I- Cal..... I like you! Well more then like you, I love you.. " Nad wasn't one to show fear either but he could feel tears threatening to fall.
Cal eyes widen, Nad liked him... Cal didn't know how to feel, he was going to be honest he had never really thought about liking the nordic demigod. He had a crush on someone else but he didn't want to break Nad's heart, though he knew it was the right thing to do.
"I- ugh.. Nad I'm going to be honest, I don't really like you... Though we can still be friends.. " Cal winced as the door was shut, the mint hair demigod didn't even know how Nad went that fast. Cal felt bad but he knew it was the right thing to do, he didn't want to lead Nad on..
Cal sighed, grabbing his clothes and getting changed. People were going to start and pile in soon, he most definitely didn't want to be there when that happened. 'Sorry Nad... ' and with that he left to the egyptian side to get some much need alone time...

Nad was sitting over near Lee's cabin, he was close to breaking down. The Nordic demigod was waiting for Lee to get back so he could talk to her, he need someone to talk too. 'then why don't you talk to me, dear friend... ' Nad shivered, he had to leave, and fast..
