Leo Valdez x reader: Statue Boy

(Y/N) *This is based off of a writing prompt I found on pinterest!*

If you ever decide to go on a trip to Lams, Ohio, you won’t find much. You’ll find a movie theater filled with people watching the latest movies, schools bustling with kids trying to solidify their future, office buildings filled with people trying to earn money, gas stations and restaurants for the people who are just travelling through, and well, you get the point. The only peculiar thing about this town, is a statue, right in the middle of town. Now, you may be thinking: what the gosh diggity darn heckity heck is so important about a statue? Now this statue is cursed, and to learn its story, we have to go back to about 2 years ago. Yeah, not that long ago, but still a story worth telling. 

Once upon a time there were a group of 7 demigods who went on a quest (to put in simple terms). One of those seven, a boy names Leo Valdez got exiled to an island called Ogygia where he met a beautiful goddess named Calypso. He fell in love with Calpyso and thought that he couldn’t love anything more than her. Little did he know how wrong he was. At the moment that he got a chance to leave, he promised to himself that he would later come back to save the one he loves. He leaves. Time passes. He saves her. More time passes, about two years passes. Leo is now 17 years old, and Calypso is still a million year old goddess. One day, at Camp Half Blood, Leo is hammering away in his work space. He is oblivious to the rest of the world; right now, it’s only him, his tools, and his mind. This is where Leo feels at his best. As he’s working away, Calypso enters. She gently places her hand on his shoulder, but he doesn’t give away from the building and working. She gently coos in his ears “Leooo....it’s time for dinner.” He doesn’t give. She keeps trying different things, but nothing works. Finally, she loses her temper. 

“LEO!” she y e l l s at the top of her lungs. Leo snaps out of his trance, “wha- huh-eh? Oh hi babe! What’s up?” he says sweetly.

“Leo, I need you to be honest with me...” Calypso says, trailing off at then end (like she’s debating on wether ot not to say it) “Do you love me?”

“Why would you ask that?”

“Because you never spend time with me anymore Leo! You’re always in here, away from the sun, building. I honestly think that you’re turning into a vampire! Be honest with me! Do you love me more than you love building?” Leo couldn’t answer. In his mind, he was criticizing himself. How could he not love Calypso more than building, she was his girlfriend. But, then again, if his girlfriend can’t support his building antics, then is she really the right one for him? I mean, shouldn’t a significant other support one another through everything? Before he could answer Calypso, she understood. “Fine. I hope you’re happy now that you’re choosing this,” Leo felt a sense of relief, like a weight was off of his shoulders. “but just know Leo Valdez, I am not happy with you. I can’t believe you. You came all the way to an island in the middle of no where for me, does that mean nothing?!?!? You know what, I’ve found a calmer way to deal with this..” she cleared her throat. “Leo Valdez, son of Hephaestus, I curse you to life as a statue. You will remain as a statue until someone who loves you and that you can love more than building, more than your friends, and more than me comes and holds your hand.” After she said that, the sky started rumbling and Leo started feeling stiff? Rigid? And before he knew it, he had turned into a statue. -This is where we fast forward in time.-

So, interesting story huh. Now let me tell you about (Y/N).  (Y/N) was a normal citizen, she did all the things you would expect a normal person to do. She lives in the city of Lams, Ohio, the city of the notorious statue of the *cute* boy. Believe it or not, she is annoyed by the number of people who go to the statue every day to take a picture with it while holding its hand. It’s story had spread far and wide, and with the story came people. Now one day, (Y/N) was just running errands, buying chocolate, graham crackers, marshmallows, apples, oranges, you get the idea. She stops in front of the statue, looking at it. As she’s formulating a plan for the rest of the day in her mind, she realizes that she’s never actually taken a picture with the statue. 

Sigh. Now this is going to annoy her until she ends up taking a picture with the statue. She walks up to the statue and asks a random passerby to take a picture of her and the statue. They willingly comply. She gives them her phone and walks up to the statue, trying to figure out what to do. As she’s trying to do this, she accidentally touches the statues hand and finds herself.. falling? She falls on top of this incredibly handsome man. He’s got a curly mop of brown hair, tanned brown skin, an incredible jawline, chocolaty brown eyes(but not like dark chocolate, like hot chocolate), fine muscles and abs that are visible through his shirt, even though he has a thin, scrawly figure. He’s taller than you, however, about 5′7′’. And on top of it all, he’s smirking. 

“Well beautiful lady, I think you just fell for me.”

Alright! Imma leave it here up to your imaginations! Please give me feedback, and ideas for a next one. This is my first imagine, and I want to make more!
