Chapter 6

Leo POV

I squirmed on the picnic blanket. The sun was all the way down and the stars were coming out. The necklace in my tool belt seemed to weigh a ton, but that wasn't even possible. My tool belt was magic. It could hold anything and make it have no weight, but the necklace was different. I had an awesome night planned, I just had to wait for the right time. When I saw Clover walk through the tree line with Jason, Piper and Annabeth, I knew it was almost time. Clover smiled at me, but I could tell something was wrong. She had a pack slung over her shoulder, as if she were going to leave. I gave her a quizzical look, but she seemed to not notice it. Or ignored it. She sat down and I put an arm around her. Clover smiled, this time with happiness, but she didn't scoot closer.

"Hey," I asked her, "what's wrong?" She shook her head, brushing some of her blond hair behind her ear.

"Nothing," she said through a pained smile, "just tired I guess." We sat in awkward silence while the others gathered around on the picnic blanket. I leaned in close to Clover's ear,

"I think you will like what I have planned." She smiled, and this time it was not forced. It was her beautiful smile, the one that caught my attention when we met. I let go of her and stood up,

"Thank you for all coming!" I said dramatically. Clover and Annabeth rolled their eyes, "I would like to announce that these fireworks won't be any 'normal' fireworks," I said, making quotation marks with my fingers, "These will blow your mind!" Clover smirked, and I realized I had used a pun, on accident of course, but was I about to admit that? No. I reached into my tool belt and pulled out a remote control, with the classic big red button. I pushed the awesome dramatic button and the ground shuttered. My secret hatch opened and all of us fell into a hole.

Clover POV

When the blanket disappeared from under my feet, I knew something big was going to happen. I landed on something hard with a THUNK!

"Ow.." I moaned and looked around me. Something big was moving up, as if on an elevator. I looked up and saw the stars coming closer and closer. Then I saw trees rising up. I looked down and saw polished wood, like on the...... I looked over at Leo, who was standing at the control console of the Argo II! He saluted me and I giggled. The greek trireme rose up over the treetops and began to speed across the sky. I stood up and helped Annabeth up as well.

"Woah...." Annabeth said as she gained her balance, "This is way cool!" I laughed and walked over to the edge of the ship. Trees speed by us, the camp started to get smaller, and we were going higher. I screamed with delight and spread my arms, feeling as if I were on top of the world! Leo pushed a button and the ship went into autopilot. He walked over to me and put an arm around me.

"Like it?" I laughed,

"I love it!" Leo held out a finger and said,

"It's not over yet." He reached into his tool belt and pulled out a remote. I laughed again,

"Are you ever going to run out of those?" Leo shook his head,

"Nope." I laughed some more. I loved it when Leo did that to me. This remote was a lot more complicated, which made me think, What has he done this time? Leo first pushed a square button that was labeled, #1. The walls shuttered and speakers popped out of them. Not small ones, the big ones that make the bass sound like thumps of your heartbeat. A DJ table popped up in front of Festus and had my birthday party's playlist ready. I turned to him.

"You didn't?" Leo grinned at me,

"Yeah, I did." He pushed play and People Like Us, by Kelly Clarkson, came on. I looked around,

"Leo, this isn't about me this time. It's about you guys," I gestured around at everyone, "you don't need to play my music." Leo shook his head,

"It's not just your music, we added in all of our favorites." I walked over to the DJ table and looked at the Ipod. It read, The Seven's Favorites. My eyes began to tear up. I would have to remember this playlist. I turned to Leo and hugged him,

"Thank you for allowing me to come." I said. He laughed and pulled away, but still held my hands,

"You helped build the Argo II, I thought you should get to watch it fly." I smiled and squeezed his hands.

"Come on then, let's party!"
