Leo's POV

After the three of them left, the rest of us kind of sat there awkwardly until Hazel cleared her throat, obviously uncomfortable.

"Soo... Leo... You seemed to have a calm attitude towards the whole... ah... Piper situation?" She stuttered out, I give her a blank look, not getting what she meant.

Annabeth coughed loudly.

"She means, you seemed to know exactly what to do in that situation." The confusion that once swarmed my head cleared away, I nodded hesitantly.

"I've had... experience, you could say..." I give out a carefully constructed answer, I didn't want them to figure out too much, especially since I still didn't fully trust them. The Hazel girl seemed familiar - why, I didn't know - but Annabeth and Will weren't really on my good side yet.

"Right.... experience..." Annabeth probed me a bit. I shrugged and nodded, not giving out any more information. There is a time and place to tell people things, but right now is not the right time or place to tell Annabeth, of all people, about my personal life.

The door burst open. Phew, just dodged a bullet.

"LEO!!!!!!" 

Or maybe not.

Piper was at the door, looking very mad and pissed off. Shit.

"Y-y-yeah?" I gave her the most innocent and timid look I could, with puppy dog eyes and a slight pout to add in effect. Piper's angry expression disappeared almost completely. 

"Oh, um... ah... nevermind, just... why did you lie to me?" She had a mother hen voice on, and I fought back a smirk.

"W-w-well, i-it's just..." I trailed off, pinching myself to gather some tears. Finally, Piper cracked.

"Oh darling, you don't have to say anything, I'm just a bit hard-headed, there there..." Piper cooed at me, I inwardly smirked. Wow, this plan is going better than expected.

After more cooing and fake tears, she finally left. The rest of the occupants of the room just stared in awe. I shrugged, finally letting myself smirk.

"That was fun."

Jason's POV

Holy Zeus.

How?

Frank, Percy, Nico, and I were all eavesdropping on the conversation. We've all seen Piper mad, and when Piper's mad, no one can calm her down or stop her. And I mean no one. Not even me, and we've been dating for a while.

Well, no one except for Leo apparently.

Who is this guy?

I can't seem to have a firm grasp of his personality. Not that I'll ever admit it, but I happen to be a control freak. I like to know everything. What is happening, what's going to happen, who is who, where is everyone, but Leo seems to defy everything. 

He seems cold hearted, but at the same time calming. He seems nervous and shy, but at the same time confident. To say it is confusing would be an understatement.

The only thing I know for sure is that Leo is a mystery, one mystery that I might not be able to solve.
