"So...what now? We...share the bed? " Y/n smacked Leo's chest, feeling the vibrations as he laughed.

"No, Valdez, you are sleeping on the couch, while I get the bed." She stated.

"What? No fair, that's sexist," he whined.

"Hmm, what about the 'I'm a gentleman' façade you put up there, hmm?" The daughter of (g/p) teased with a smirk. "Gotta be sexist to be one."

Well, how did they end up here? Pretty simple.

Being sent by Chiron with your crush to a quest for retrieving a stolen parchment sounds somewhat easy. But doing it? That's a whole new level of hardness.

They were successful, nevertheless, back on their way to camp-half blood, but had to stop halfway on the nearest motel to call it the night. Which, unfortunately, only had one small bed. For two.

"Nah, I'd rather be wise when it comes to bed or the couch," he gave his stupid grin (that Y/n really wanted to smack off his face).

"Fine, rock, paper, scissors - winner chooses" she decided- a decision which was regretted it immediately.

"I win! Ha!" Leo pumped his fist in the air. Y/n rolled her eyes, muttering a, 'whatever, loser' and proceeded to the bed, taking the rug from there.

"You think I'd actually let my friend rot on the couch?" Two hands sneaked around her waist, and the intruder was met with a swift punch one the nose, and an audible crack, before Y/n processed his words. Her eyes widened.

"Oh shit. Shit. Fuck, I'm so sorry Leo. Are you alright?"

A groan from the demigod on the floor, "Remind me never to give you surprise hugs again."

She pried his hands away, assessing the injury. "Yep. Definitely broken. Hold on, lemme get you the first aid kit- and ambrosia. I'm so sorry."

"Thanks for the commentary." Ah, sarcasm. "Of all the ways to get my nose broken, why does it have to end up like this?"

"Shut up," Y/n wiped the blood off with the wet cloth.

"Looks like we'll have to share," Leo said.

"Yeah, share," she relented, "But rules. No touching, or anything of that sort. You, me, corners of the bed. Get it?"

"Damn right girl, I ain't coming near you for the next month." The (h/c) girl smirked.

"Think I can count on that, Tinker lord."

"Stop wriggling, Valdez."

"What? I'm still in my line."

"No- you just caused the pillow in between to move."

"Sheesh, drama queen."

"Says you. 'McShizzle'"

"Whatever."

Silence prevailed.

"Leo?"

The demigod facing the window hummed.

"Do you ever, like, think what life would be if we weren't demigods?" It was no more than a whisper. Leo frowned, before smiling softly at the moon.

Returning from the quest, you call it quits, crashing on the nearest motel. Which, unfortunately, only has only one bed.

• Blushing internally but acting all tough out.

• "So...what? We, like, share the bed?"

• "No way Valdez, you're sleeping on the couch."

• "Hey, that's not fair, you're being sexist!"

• Ending up playing rock, paper, scissors with Leo winning and Y/n grumbling.

• "Ha, I win!"

• "Whatever, loser."

• Him taking you by surprise by sneaking his hands around your waist and murmuring, "You really think I'd let my best friend rot on the couch- Ow!" Crack.

• Maybe too surprised.

• Cue Y/n panicking. "Oh shit, I'm so sorry Leo, I didn't realize- Oh My God, is your nose broken?!?!"

• Leo groaning on the floor, "Remind me never to give you surprise hugs again."

• Fixing what you can with first-aid and ambrosia.

• Repeated apologizing.

• Ending up sharing the bed.

• "But we have rules. You, me, corners of the bed, get it?"

• Building a pillow-dam between two of you.

• Awkward silence.  

• Cue cheesy jokes.

• "Why did the minotaur cross the road?"

• "Presumably to knock some sense in to your head?"

• "Hey!"

• "Joke's on you, Klutz."

• Turning into full fledged conversations, despite not facing each other.

• Eventually one of you falling asleep, causing the other to go silent and smile fondly.

• Slowly scooting closer.

• Y/n being a blanket hog.

• Leo waking up with nightmares and the child of g/p comforting him.

• Hugging and whispering soothing things until sobs and sniffles have subsided.

• Ending up them cuddling, facing each other, just staring into the others eyes.

• Silence, but this time, it's comfortable silence.

• Y/n running her hands through Leo's soft curls or soothingly rubbing his back.

• Leo nuzzling his face in the crook of her neck- the poor boy deserves more luv.

• Falling asleep in each others warmth, for once feeling safe.

• Well, as safe as it could be in a motel miles away from camp.

• Waking up tangled with each other with pillows scattered around you, the sun hitting your face.

• Y/n not being a morning person, scrunching her nose and rubbing her eyes, grumbling.

• And Leo staring at you in amazement, I mean how could someone be so beautiful and yet real?!?

• Cue awkward stuttering, coughs, internal squealing and overall embarrassment.  

• "Um, Y/n? You drool when you sleep."- Leo.

• Pretending that the night never happened.

• Successfully returning to camp.

• Only mentioning it when you guys kiss, under the stars and later just laying on the grass and-

• "Hey, remember when you broke my nose that day? In that motel?"

• Giving him a dry look. "Really, Leo? Do you have to ruin the mood?"

• "You still love me though."

• You laughed, and kissed his nose. "Of course I do. And did you realize your cheeks were on fire the morning after?"

• "Hell, was it that obvious?"

• "No, I mean actually on fire, mr. McShizzle. Like right now."
