Mateo Sanz

(Rated M: For the simple fact that it talks about BDSM and it might Involve sex) It was just after lunch and people were going their own ways. Some going to class. Which was something that Mateo should be doing. Hand to hand combat with Dustin. But the reason why he wasn't going there today was pulling him by his arm. A smirk pulled at his lips as his eyes roamed around her body. Her blond hair swayed every time she walked, and it was almost like she had done it on purpose. They were in their orange camp shirts at the moment which of course was tacky enough, it took away from some of the individuality he thought. But there was no telling anyone that at the moment. She turned around, an innocent smile playing on her lips. He knew better than to believe it at all. He chuckled a little as he allowed her to pull them into the forest. They were far enough away from prying eyes that he, in his teasing way, pushed Cora up against one of the trees there. He stood taller than her by a foot and some inches. He smirked down at her with something in his eyes that told her that he knew better than her to be innocent. They had been fooling around for a couple of months now, and Mateo had liked where things were going at the moment. She seemed to like it as well, and the best part of the whole thing was that she wasn't being clingy. Which is something that he wouldn't be able to handle at all. They had had a talk about everything beforehand. He didn't want to bring her in if she was going to be like that. However, he couldn't help but feel comfortable with her. He lent down, his lips finding hers in a fast second. He couldn't help but trail his hands down her sides. His thumbs found their way under her shirt, caressing her soft skin. He liked to be able to touch her in certain ways. It made things easier in his mind. He let the kiss linger a little longer before he pulled away and smirked down at her. "I think that we should take this a little farther." he told her with one of his rare smiles. Within a second, one hand moved away from her side and did a wave in the air, where a scroll had formed. He grabbed it with his hand and then a pen soon followed as well. "We've been playing around a little, but I was thinking that we could take it a little father." he told her, handing the rolled-up paper to her, allowing her to look through it. " There is a lot going on there, so I figured that we could talk about it here, no one is around." He said, sounded more like a man on a mission. There was going to be a bon fire later that night and he didn't really want to miss it, besides he knew one of Mr. D's kids would bring something to drink and he was all about that. He stayed silent for a moment before he tilted his head a little watching her read it. "It goes over the bases that would need to be filled. If you're not okay with something let me know and it will be taken off, no if ands or buts about it." he told her. "After all it's about you and what you are safe with doing." he told her honestly.

Mateo stayed sitting there, even when she arrived. He knew better than to run up to him. She would end up hitting him and he didn't want that to be the way that things started off here. He sighed a little and wanted to roll his eyes at her snarky words. There was something else in there and he just looked at her in that moment. He didn't know what to say, so he just looked at her. Her body had changed a lot since he seen her last. She was just about five months now, so that was what a woman looked like. He hummed a little and patted the sand next to him. "I'm not going to hurt you... physically, mentally or emotionally." he added the last part to the end because he hadn't really done that, emotionally maybe. But he was stupid..and she knew that he was, along with not being ready for anything that was going to happen. He wasn't ready emotionally to be a dad or be the man that she wanted him to be. He had no idea what he was going to do from this point on, but he knew that he had to try to do something. As he didn't think that he could start over with someone else. Besides, she was the one that was carrying his child. He sighed as he watched for her to move closer to him, if she did. "Look." He began with a sigh. "I honestly didn't mean to hurt you in the way that I did." he glanced over at the water now watching the waves hit the sand with a splash. "I'm an asshole and I know that you have cussed me with every breath. I desire that." He told her with another sigh. Gods was it going to be another day full of sighs? He didn't turn his head to look at her because he knew that if he did something might crack in him and he didn't know if he would be able to hold in the whole thing. "You have known that I've been this way since forever." he told her, it was true. He honestly at one point in his life didn't want to be claimed by anyone. He wanted to have his own time and do what and who ever he wanted, now it was a little different. "That day, I just went to go for a walk and ended up talking to Levi." he said remembering what they had talked about. "Finding out that he knew months before I did hurt me more than anything. I ended up punching a hole in his wall." he didn't feel that best about the way that things ended on their end. "It wasn't you that made me leave, it was my shame." he told her as he glanced over at her. A pleading look on his face. "I hurt you and my best friend." he told her. "I was just going to go and kill some monsters and be right back." he told her with a promise. "I killed the monsters with ease and then another idea hit me." he sat up straighter in the sand. Trying to lock his eyes with hers. "I thought that maybe you wouldn't want to live here with the baby, even thought it might be safer. I'm sure Lilythe wouldn't care." he went on in thought. "But I wanted to give you something that you could call your own." he began with a soft tone, he hadn't and wouldn't raise his voice to her. He hadn't come to fight with her. If she wanted to then he would silence her, how he didn't know just yet. He glanced away back at the water. "We have our own place, a two-bedroom apartment in town." he told her. "The key that I gave you opens that door." he told her as he ran his hand over his hair.

Lena, At least I got an answer back and of course you would keep the key. I'll be there soon enough. Just making sure things are okay here before I leave. Mateo

He heard her before he seen her, and he knew that he was going to get it from her. Honestly, did he blame her for it? No. Did he need it coming from her, no but he was going to get it anyways. He raised an eyebrow when she said that she and his brother had been worried about him. Now which brother? Well, he guessed that there was only one brother that she really hung out with. Shadow. "I'm sorry about that." he muttered out while biting his lip. He should have messaged her as soon as he was able to honestly. He knew better than to keep her waiting. She was his charge, and he knew that she would have thought the worst. And honestly, he was right. The Mom of the camp was a big one to piss off. Her questions soon came, and he sighed. She was more worried about him at the moment then being pissed off. That was a good thing. She went on as he opened his mouth to chat back but closed it to let her finish her thought. "No, I'm not hurt, nothing that didn't already heal up that is." he told her with a smirk. Most of them go hurt and he had used his meds to heal him anyways. "No!" he rushed out. "I've gotten it all done." he said in a fast tone. "I've been working and apartment hunting for..." he began and sighed a little. "She's going to be mad, but I got us a place here in the city." he told her with a small sigh. "I don't wanna have to take up the big house with all of us." he said that was if Helena even took him back from the stupid shit that he did. He gave her a small smile before speaking again. "I'll be coming back soon. Just working on getting things in there now. I have it pretty much filled." he nodded his head a little. "Thanks for the job though." he told her with a smile.

20 years old | Dating Helena (issues) | Son of Hecate | Baby Daddy BDSM | Hardheaded | magical child | learning his lessons Universal abilities Superhuman Strength: Demigods are far stronger than any human. Superhuman Speed: Demigods are far faster than any human and possess greater swiftness. Superhuman Agility: Demigods possesses agility, equilibrium, and bodily coordination that are far greater than that of humans. Meaning, they possess great acrobatic prowess and maneuverability helping them in the midst of battle. They can move, jump very high, flip, climb, and run incredibly fast without difficulty or exhaustion. Superhuman Durability: Demigods possesses much greater durability, resilience, and constitution than any human being. Therefore, they are capable of withstanding and surviving blows that would otherwise leave a human dead and/or injured if lucky. Superhuman Endurance: Demigods can endure physical stresses beyond the capabilities of the greatest humans, allowing them to operate efficiently for extended amounts of time, even if they are weakened or exhausted. Above-Normal Healing Factor: Demigods can heal faster and with more finality than humans and sustain far greater damage than humans. Heightened Senses: Demigods' five senses (hearing, smelling, sight, etc.) are greatly increased. The senses of a demigod helps them notice small details and unusual attributes that shouldn’t be there, which help keep them alive in battle. Superhuman Stamina: Demigods have an unusually advanced musculature, granting them exceptionally high stamina and endurance surpassing most mortals. Demigods can perform rigorous physical activity for hours, until fatigue toxins in their blood stream begins to impair them, and they will begin to show signs of fatigue. Superhuman Reflexes: Demigods have far above average reflexes that can keep them alive during a fight (diagnosed as ADHD in mortals). It allows them to dodge inhumanly fast attacks that mortals wouldn’t be able to react to. Their reflexes also enables them to keep pace with beings faster, or as fast as them when in the midst of combat. Children of Hecate Mystiokinesis: Reality Warping/Spellcasting abilities. Like their mother, their magic is strongest at night and weak during the day. By speaking in either Latin or Ancient Greek, her children can cast many spells for various effects such as creating fire, generating cold, protecting oneself, and shielding themselves from the tracking abilities of monsters and etc. If a child of Hecate overexerts their magical capabilities too much, it physically takes a toll on their body causing them fatigue, exhaustion, dizziness, or faint. It could also cause their magical energy to be drained or depleted, leaving them powerless. This skill can be used to copy any other ability; however, it will always require the verbal component and will always be weaker than the natural ability of someone else. For example, this could mimic hypnokinesis but would require an incantation and would be weaker than a Child of Hypnos's natural born ability. This also applies to their own limited abilities on this list. They can verbally cast spells to manipulate shadows or control dead but will always be weaker than those who have a natural born talent for it. Those with natural born talents do not need to cast a spell for it. Mist Control: Those with the power to control the Mist can create Mistforms, illusions, and influence the minds and memories of mortals. Additionally, the following ability is available on a limited basis and must be applied for. Necromancy: the natural born ability to summon and control the dead. Umbrakinesis: the natural born ability to mentally generate and manipulate darkness, the absence of light.

What was it now. Would he have left if she would have out right and told him that she was having his child? He would like to say that he doubted it. He would have been a little more level headed but of course he was still half asleep in the moment. Not really listening to rassional words. She was scared too, he didn't care, he knew that he had to do something. He needed to do something and the best thing that he could think of was going walking. He needed that at the moment. He needed to wake up and get things going in his mind again. Maybe going to talk to his best friend would do the trick. Surely he would be able to help out with his emotions that were going on at the moment. He rolled his eyes when she told him that it was love. Yeah, maybe he loved her but he still wasn't ready to take that step just yet. He dind't want that to be part of them. Not right yet. He still had time to heal him from everything that happened with the last girl that he had thought loved him. He put on his clothes and got down to his socks and sat on the bed to put them on. She brought up the fact that he had asked what was wrong and he shot her a look. "Obviously. When you're girlfriend is trying to stop herself from fucking crying while in bed, what boyfriend wouldn't ask what was wrong.. did you want me to just ignore you?" he questioned her curiously. Honestly, he was trying to be the best boy friend that he could be but she was making it really hard if that was the only thing that she could come up with at the moment to be mad about. He was trying to be the boyfriend that she needed or rather wanted. It was hard for him to get that. He placed his second sock on and stood up looking for his shoes. He did need to take a walk. It would depend on how the talk went with Levi on rather or not he would stay or not. He wanted to prove her wrong. He honestly did. But he was hurting himself. He wanted to be the second peron that found out. Hell, if not the third person to know since it was her sister that gave her the test to do. He would be able to live with that, but she had waited months to tell him and he wasn't having it at the moment. So he ignored her pleding, even if it felt wrong to do so. The next words came out as begs for her. He felt it in his bones. He felt that he was doing something wrong. He wanted to stay with her. He wanted to help her with everything in him, but his body was moving on it's own. He didn't know what he was doing. Going for a walk that was what he thought he was doing. He stepped around the corner outside of his room when he heard her say that she loved him. Shit! He crused himself for a moment before walking away from her all together. Where was his best friend when he needed him.

Mateo nodded his head in agreement. There was always something that could be done, and breaks were just that. It was strange giving his little brother a word of advice for love when he didn't really understand it all himself either. It was a lot, and he didn't know what he was going to do about the whole Lena thing himself. He had been fighting the feelings that he had. He knew that things would finally come out in the end but what kind of end would that be for him. He smiled a little at his brother and nodded his head. "That sounds about right to me. Always be true to yourself." Right, like he could do the same. He wanted to bet himself up for giving advice that he couldn't even take. The older camper laughed at his brothers' words. "Tell me about it. I can give the advice but never do it myself." he shook his head thinking about it. He needed to learn to do that. He turned his head from looking at the wall to his brother and smiled. "That is what everyone is doing in life." he told him with a small smile. He didn't want his little brother thinking that everything should be easy like that. He blinked a little when his little brother thanked him. Mateo smiled once again and nodded his head. "You don't have to thank me, but I do wanna hear about how you wooed this girl into being with you." he told him with a wink. he knew that his brother had it in him. He just needed to get that part of him going. "Tell me when it happens yeah?" he said with another wink.

Mateo didn't think that it would have been known at the moment. Hell, he thought that he would have gotten to Levi first, but being Lena's brother, of course she got to his before he did. He had been looking down but ended up slowly looking up at his friend and gave him a funny look. "You knew?" he questioned curiously. Getting a little mad at that thought. She thought to tell her family before the dad to be? Had she lost her mind at that. Surely, she had lost what little she had in her brain. After their fight, he needed someone to be on his side. He needed to get away. Fuck everyone at this camp. The encouragement his friend had offered had gone right out the window. He hadn't wanted to say anything. The next words out of Levi's mouth was he was happy that she told him because it was eating him up alive. More or less. Regardless of how it should have came out. He was supposed to be his best friend, but obviously he needed to rethink that all together. He turned on a dime and punched a hole into the wall that was right next to him. He didn't care at the moment who's room it was. "Right." he muttered out and walked to the door to open it again to leave. He needed to talk to someone else about all this. He didn't need to be in her cabin for when she showed up at all. "You should have done better." he told him as he opened up the door and walked out of it, not really listening to what the other man had to say. He headed to the big house. Maybe talking to Lilythe would be the better idea.

Mateo was glad in a way that his sister had ended the conversation about him and Lena. He didn't want to spend the whole time with her just talking about his relationship. He turned to her and watched her nod like she was happy to have him say that they were good. She never questioned him again which was nice as well. He looked around at the people in the bar and he sighed hard when she brought up that he should sing with his sister. "Abigail." he said in a warning tone. The man didn't sing at all. "You know I can sing to save my life." He muttered to her again. She had that playful glint in her eye and he knew what that meant. He was going to be singing regardless of if he wanted to or not. He watched his red headed sister make her way up to the sign-up sheet and danced on her way back. He just knew that she had signed him up to and when she got back to him, she had told him that he was going to sign aint no mountain high enough. He gave his sister a look that said really and sighed hard when he grabbed the drink one the table for them and downed it. "Great." he muttered out. Knowing that she would pull those puppy dog eyes out on him.

Mateo wasn't a slow man. He was definingly a man that liked things hard and rough. He had to stop himself from flipping her over and pounding into her. Honestly, it would be the next best thing, minus the fact that he was able to watch her breast bounce as she rode him. It was something that he couldn't help but stay trained on. He was glad that she didn't have any fear to show her body to him. Because rather he wanted to admit it or not, she was hotter than hell and he could eat her up alive if only given the chance to do so, which he was happy that he had been given that chance. Though, he knew that she would have given him that much without even asking. He was pretty good on his threats. He knew that she knew that much as well. He didn't care if she couldn't cum for him again, he would force her to cum on his cock while she cried. He had no care in the world about that. However, the threat seemed to start kick her into bouncing a little more. Which started to feel pretty damn good. He kept his thumb there on her clit because that moaning was music to his ears. It sent him in a whole different world. He of course hard ended up getting her into his bed without thinking about what could happen to them at all. He was inside of her without any kind of protection and in that moment he could care less. His hand had moved away from her clit and up to her breast. He wanted to grab and touch. Her hands braced on his chest, and he moved his hands up into her hair, pulling her down to him in a hot kiss. He was getting pretty close. If she kept moving her hips around the way she was, he was going to bust inside of her soon. His breathing got a little heavier and he thrusted up into her, wanting more friction around his cock. "Shit." he moaned out as his hands moved down to her hips. Helping her move on him a little harder. He was about to come. Everything about this night was amazing, hate fucking was one of his favorite past times. His thumb slide to her clit once more and began to rub her again. He needed her to cum with him. Hearing her beg him to cum broke something inside him. He glanced up at her through hooded eyes and allowed himself to follow her command and there he was cumming for her. Cumming inside her. He stopped her from bouncing on him, placing her solidly on his cock unmoved. His head fell back on the pillow, and he sighed hard. "Fuck Lena." he shuttered out as he started as he rolled them over to their side so that he could hold her to him a little better. He needed to catch his breath for a moment before he began to clean her up.

It had been about two weeks since he had written that letter to Lena and if he told anyone that he wasn't worried about getting stood up from Lena then he would be dead, stuck dead by the gods right here and now. Everything in him was telling him to run to the cabin and not look back. But there was something in him that made him want to wait it out and see what she would do. He hoped she would come and save him from all these things running through his head. He had no idea what he was going to say at the moment, or even do. Would he run to her or just stand there looking like a fool. Maybe more than likely the later of the two. He paced back and forth for a little while and began to run different things in his head. He hadn't seen her in a little while and he had to wonder how big she had gotten. If she was having a boy or girl.. no..not her.. they. If they were having a boy or girl. He felt the butterflies in his stomach, and he finally took a seat on the sand. He was going to wait here all night long. @ Helena L'Amour

Dear Lena, I know I was an asshole, but you weren't any better to me either in my opinion. Though sure I'll blame this all on me. I shouldn't have run out on anything. That I will blame on being scared at that moment. I didn't know what to do. I don't have family to run to for help. It's just me. I mean if you wanna call my half siblings family sure, then I have them. But they aren't going to be helping me with the baby or you. I know me storming out as caused some issues with things, but I know I'm trying to make it up to you. As you might have felt, the letter was a little heavy and there is a key. It's for you if you want to leave the camp and come stay with me. I have a little apartment. Two bedrooms and already some stuff for us and the baby when he or she gets here. It's all yellows and greens. I had asked for help in the department. They were all too happy to help out. But if you don't want to come to the apartment then Lilythe said that you could go to the big house if things got to out of hand. I've also been working too, which is how I've gotten all this. I don't want you to think that I've been stealing or something. If you have questions, you can totally ask Lilythe about it. She gave me the job to help out. Also gave me a little mission to get some steam blowed off. Look I bet anything, because I know you, you've skipped over all of that and are looking for an apology, but you aren't getting one here. No that would be the easy way out. Over a letter, how stupid is that. I'm sure that you would think so as well. So, I'm writing to let you know that I'll be back at camp in a couple of weeks. Fourteen days from the time I've dated this letter. I'll be waiting at our spot. I'll give you a sorry then. - Mateo Ps. I don't expect you to write me back. It would be nice if you did though.

It had been sometime since he had left the camp. He had promised Lilythe that he would keep in touch. Honestly, he had been lost in his own head and he didn't know what to do about it. Now that things were fixed up, he was able to do what he needed to do. He knew what he needed to do. He needed to get back to camp now and show Lena that he was sorry. Though that was going to be easier said than done. He bite the big one with her, and now they were having a child together. Which of course took a toll on him as well, but he was better now. He had even gotten them an apartment; it was still pretty bare, but he was working on that at the moment. It had a bed and a TV in it. He had been walking around the area trying to find a place where he could send an Iris message to Lilythe. It had been a long day and he was ready for anything that came his way. He had already fought a couple of monsters, but he wouldn't tell her that at the moment. He had taken care of the problem that she had asked him too. He found a fountain and walked up to it finding the spray at just the right angle and found the rainbow in the mist. He dug in his pocket and pulled out a drachma and tossed in. "O Iris, goddess of the rainbow, accept my offering." He muttered closing his eyes and then opening them. "Show me Lilythe at camp half-blood." he said and waited for the woman on the other side to accept his message. Was he going to get yelled at? Maybe. Did he need it? Again maybe. @ Lilythe Rayne

Mateo's face went blank for a moment when Lilythe told him that he was going to have to ask Lena what she wanted. He shook his head because there was going to be no way that he was going to march his ass over to her at the moment. He was still working on his feelings for everything. The fact that she said that he had to fix things as well. Lena should be the one fixing thing too. He shouldn't be the only one that needed to do it. They both had done things and said things. So of course, he wanted a sorry as well. He nodded his head a little and took a deep breathe. This was all just way too much for him at the moment. He was ready to leave. If he could that was. "Well, could you see for me until I get back?" he questioned curiously. He knew that Lilythe would want to talk to her anyways. Well, that was what he thought anyways. The fact that she had agreed that he could go and beat up a couple of monsters was great to him. He would just have to get a sword and all that, depending on when he was going to fight the monsters. He still had his magic and all that at night but during the day he would have to use something else. He gave her a small grin and nodded his head. He would have to figure out what to say to Lena when the time came. He watched as she grabbed the keys off the counter and passed them to him. A smile came to his face. "Thanks, will do." he said and moved to go to the door. "Oh, and I promise not to die." he mused a little as he chuckled. "Oh, what about a weapon?" he said curiously. He waited for her to bring him one and then he was off. He still needed to clear his mind of all the things that were happening. (You can end it if you want too)

He watched her hand as she patted him on the shoulder. He let out another sigh. He needed to do what he needed to do. He knew that Lilythe was right. He had to agree with her that much, however, it didn't mean that he had to like it. This was going to change his whole outlook on everything right now and he didn't know what to think about it. He moved from side to side on his feet and thought about what was going to happen to him. He was known for being a playboy and hell, not he was locked in with someone. He didn't hate the idea deep down inside, but on the outside, where he was still trying to figure himself out a little he was worried that he was going to be the right person for her and that scared him more than anything. He was the boy who didn't commit to anything. Especially after the whole Megan thing. Lilythe told him to stay at camp until the baby was born and he sighed. Again, it was like he was doing that a lot as of late. He nodded his head a little. "Thats fine." he told her, "She would be safer here then out in the open." he said as he ran his hand through his hair. "I don't know." he said as he thought about it. "Would Lena like to be at the big house?" he questioned curiously. Maybe, since her brothers and sisters know what was going on at the moment. He blinked. "Maybe we should move into the big house at least until we're ready to live out in the real world." he was trying to not choke on his words. There was a lot going on. A small smile came to his lips as he said that getting a job for him would be easy for her. "Great." he muttered out a little happier. She told him that he would need to get his license and he nodded his head a little. That he could do. He was old enough to try and he had already gotten his permit and had been taking care of that over the years. It was the only way that he was getting into bars and things. He nodded his head. "I think that would be a good idea." he told her the small smile becoming a little bigger. "I think Lena would like to move into the big house as well." he told her with a small nod of his head. "I think she would be safer there than in the cabin with all her siblings around her all the time." he didn't want to make her feel bad by leaving but he needed to go out and clear his head, because he was worried he would say something stupid again. He didn't want that. "I don't want to hurt her anymore. I need to go do some soul searching while I'm away." he told Lilythe with another sigh. "I'll be back. I'll Iris message you in a couple of days." He told her honestly. "During that time I'll write her a letter as well. I need to figure out a way to tell her sorry."He told Lilythe with a small smile on his lips. There was a lot going on his mind and that was something.

Mateo wanted to scream out loud, but he only done so in his head. For a second. "You're right, you're only 17 years old." what the hell had he thought. Nothing apparently. He was too busy thinking with his dick. He wanted to put his head through a wall at the moment. "Scared doesn't mean that you shouldn't tell me, we could have gone through this together." he said to her, his voice not that quiet now. He was mad, sure, he was more than that. However, the word that he was wasn't coming to him at the moment. He threw up his hands when she started with the whole my body thing. She was right, he should have been careful with what he was doing. "Wonderful, just fucken wonderful." He spit out as he paced the room getting as far away from her as he could at this moment. He was pissed and he didn't want to be around her at the moment, but she was in his room. He walked over to the closet and grabbed a shirt and pants and began putting them on, because he was going to be leaving this room. She could stay in it all she wanted to and think about what was going on, he needed to walk. He turned to her when she started speaking again, as he pulled the shirt over his shoulders and down his stomach. "Love right." he said once again as he put one leg in his pants. "Passion maybe I wouldn't call that love." he said rolling his eyes. He had no family, and this would mean that she and this baby would now be his family. He didn't know how to treat them. He had nothing to go by. Hell, his mom didn't want him, nor his dad. So, there was that. He learned from the best. He finally he got his pants on and he sighed looking at her. "Right." He said to her. "Because telling me in the morning knowing I'm not a morning person was the best time." he glared at her for a moment before going to the mirror and brushing his hair back with his fingers. "It would have been different if you would have told me if I was up and going already Helena." he told her. "Hell, I might have been excited if I knew before now. I was supposed to be the next person to know not the last person to know about this before the whole damn camp finds out." he said to her. He hated this. He hated fighting, him and Megan did it all the time. He hated it. It reminded him of those times, it reminded him of why he didn't need to be with anyone at the moment. He blew out some breath and looked away from her this time trying to not get into his feelings, because oh they were big. He didn't know how to handle them at all. "You're right." he said in a soft voice.."You always have to be right about everything." He told her while shaking his head, tears were starting to come to his eyes, he wouldn't let them fall though. "I'm leaving now." he said. "I wouldn't have if you would have told me sooner but now, I get to look like the joke of the whole camp whose GIRLFIREND decided to not tell him about his child that she is carrying." he walked over to the door and put his hand on it. Did he want her to tell him to stay, would he if she asked him to, begged him too. He knew that he would do everything for this girl, and that was what scared him more than anything.

Mateo watched her carefully as he said what he told Lena. She hadn't moved a bit, but he had to wonder if he was going to get the blunt end of everything. He closed his eyes when she started talking and keep them closed as he tried to put himself in Lena's shoes. Honestly, it was a lot harder than he thought that it would be. He listened to what Lilythe said and sighed. So much sighing happening right now. He shook his head and opened his eyes, looking right at her. Lilythe was normally right about things, but he didn't want to say that out loud. Maybe the way that he said it did make Lena feel bad, but he didn't want to be a dad, he didn't lie to her at the moment. So, there was that. "Well, I didn't lie to her." He said out right. He didn't want to lie to Lena and have to fake it his whole life. He didn't want a child right now. He was not a fit man much less a father. He shook his head a little ran his hand down his face. This was all to much. So many she didn't mean it, and maybe what he said, he didn't mean either. He didn't want to be a dad right now but didn't mean that he didn't want to all together. She was to young right now. Maybe when she was his age. But he hated that she was only 17 years old. He was worried about everything that was going on, he didn't want anything to happen to her, and yet, here he was causing the most to her by leaving. But he needed to. He needed to get his life together, he couldn't stay at camp much longer. He had to care for Lena and the baby that was on the way. His face flushed red when she said that what he was doing basically was being a parent. "Wha..."He blinked a couple time, bewildered by her statement. He knew that he loved Helena, but he hadn't told her that, and now he wanted to be a dad, or was acting like one at the moment. Was he lying to himself? How crazy was that. Did he need to relearn about himself? Lilythe looked puzzled by the next question he had. He was worried about her getting into some trouble. When Lilythe said that she hadn't seen a pregnant demigod, he kind of sighed a little. Well, this was just great. "Right. I think I'll have to do most of the fighting then." He just hoped that it was at night when it happened then, because he would be able to use his magic that way. But he would still be able to use a sword and things, he wasn't that stupid. "I think I need to make this trip alone. The last thing I need is to have someone in my ear about what is going on." He told her with a small smile. "I'll be back, I promise." He told her as he thought about it. "I can Iris message you while on the road to get these harpies out of the way." he was ready to take this on at the moment. He knew that he was going to have to say something to Lena, but he doubted that she would talk to him, so maybe he would tell Levi instead to let her know that he was going to take care of a nest of Harpies. "Umm." he started off and looked to the ground then back at her. "Is there any way that you can help me get a job?" he questioned her curiously. "I need to start saving up for a place."

He knew that Lilythe was right about it. No one is really ready for a child at the moment. He knew that, but it was happening way too fast for him, and he didn't know how to react to it. He wanted everything to do with the child and Lena. Of course, he wanted to change for her, but then there was the whole thing that happened with Megan, and he had a thing about trusting girls in that respect. Did he think that Lena would do that to him, maybe not, but he wasn't at all one hundred percent sure. She still told him to leave. Lilythe had made a point that they had acted the best way they both new how to and he still he wondered if he could have handled it a little better. "Well, she sure has a funny way of saying it." he commented back to the older woman who said that she didn't think that Lena meant what she said. If not, then why did she say it. Granted he did say he didn't want to be a father, but who wanted that at the moment. It was the first words that came to his head and he had repeated it to her. Which he shouldn't have but it was to late for that now. "I made the mistake of saying I don't want to be a dad..." He told Lilythe as his head went to his hands once again. "The more I think about it, the more I worry for the child, and of course Helena...would this make her that much more of a target?" He was a little worried about her. Everything was crazy. "She can't leave the camp just yet." he told her with a worried look on his face. "I don't know what I would do if I lost the only family that I've ever had." He was stupid, and he could hear Lena nodding her head along to that. However, he perked up when Lilythe said that there were some monsters out in New York that needed handling. "I'll take it." He told her with a sigh. "Anything to get myself back together." He told her, "Do I need to bring anyone with me just in case, or can I take care of this myself?"

Mateo could only sigh. He didn't handle being told well at all. It was sad and he knew that he needed to go back and talk to her a little more, but they had said things that hurt the other and that wasn't what he was wanting to do at the moment. He needed to sulk a little and so did she. He knew that she might have it a little harder than he did at the moment since she was the one that was pregnant at the moment. However, he didn't care because this was wild, and he was still reeling from the hurt of not knowing at all. "Yeah, I know. I shouldn't have acted that way." Maybe his spell hadn't worked, it was the morning, his spell work was only stronger in the night. That much he knew. He once again shook his head and sighed. That was going to be the thing today. Him sighing. His lungs were going to pop from it, he just knew it. He knew all about the camp and how the gossip traveled. It just sucked being on the other end of it at the moment. He liked to be part of the spreading not what it was about. Mateo had been looking down, but his head snapped up when she agreed with him that two months was too long to wait. So, someone had agreed with him. So maybe he wasn't going to be a lone in this at all. He had someone that he could talk to and that was a good thing right. He gave her a faint smile and nodded his head. "I would have been able to handle it better, if she would have told me when she found out. I would have still been shocked and all that, but I would still be able to help out more. Right now, I have no idea what I can do. She wants nothing to do with me at this point." He told her. "She told me to leave, so that is what I'm going to do." He said looking at Lilythe. After everything she said. He understood that Lena was scared, hell so was he, he hadn't told her to leave the cabin. She told him to leave. She was the one that told him to do that, so she couldn't get mad at him for that. He wouldn't tell anyone that he was going off but Lilythe. That was all that needed to know at the moment. She told him to figure out what he wanted and then talk to her. "But that's just it." He told her with a sigh. "I don't know what I want." he said as he once again ran his hand through his hair. He scooted up to the edge of the couch and placed his head in his hands. "I want to be there for her, but I think to figure myself out I need to leave." He said glancing back over to the older camper. "I think I need a quest." He told her. "I need to go do something. Clear my head."

Taken a deep breath and letting it all out in one blow he nodded a little at her question. His dark hair falling into his eyes just slightly. He didn't have anyone to talk to this about. He thought he had Levi, but he was playing brother to Lena at the moment, and he was still pretty pissed off at him for not saying something to him earlier. He swore he sighed way more times than he thought he would this day. "Good to know that everyone knew before me." he muttered with another shake of his head. That was the thing that was bothering him to no end. If she would have told him any other way, he would have been able to work out his feelings. Hell, if she would have told him when she first found out, he had seen her that night. Things could have been better. It wasn't that he didn't want to be in a relationship with her, he wanted that. Hell he was in there right now. However, he wanted to know why she thought hiding it because she was scared was the better idea of it all. And to top it all off, Mateo isn't a morning person so of course being told that right when he woke up was doomed from the start. He walked from the kitchen to the living room and sat down on one of the couches. "Shock is an understatement." He told her with a small frown on his lips. He didn't know what word would put it as it. He sighed once again. What was that now the hundredth time. "She waited two months to tell me anything, everyone knew before me. How is that even far." He told Lilythe as he looked dead in her eyes. He just needed someone to be on his side. "I might not have acted the right way when she told me. But I'm more upset that she hadn't said anything to me because there were plenty of times we were around each other." He told her as his foot began to tap on the ground.

He ran his hand threw his hair once more for good measure when he heard a voice coming from top of the stairs. His blue eyes snapped to where Lilythe was in that moment, and he let out a sigh. Tears threatened to come to his eyes as he tried hide the fear in them. He was doing pretty good. However, Lilythe would know that something was going on, because that was just her in the long run. He shook his head for a moment and sighed. "I don't know." He said as he freaked out a little more, his voice going up a little as he tried to not again get angry. Because she had waited a while to even tell him about it. Which hurt him beyond belief. She even told him that she knew he would do this and run away. She even gave him a way out if he wanted it, however, he didn't want to go out. He wanted to be there for the child, and her. Admitting that he had more feelings for her than just the normal lust. He might even say he l..o..v..e..d her. Which was saying a lot for the boy who told himself and her that he wouldn't be doing that. He shook his head and sighed again. "Did you hear already too." He muttered as he looked around the room hoping that no one was listening.

Mateo was glad that Levi seemed to have time to talk to him. He needed it at the moment. Because he wasn't sure what he was going to do at the moment. He needed to get his head on right. He might have said some hurtful words to Lena, but in those moments and the way that she had hidden the truth from him had hurt him more than anything. He knew two wrongs didn't made a right, but hell did it feel good. He was fuming a little and he was sure that Levi could feel it. He was curious if one of the Ares boys was playing his emotions at the moment. Like that Dustin kid did at the volleyball game. He took a deep breath as he walked into the cabin. He should have known better than to go to the cabin in which Lena lived but his best friend also lived there at the moment. He noticed something was off with Levi when he gave him that half smile. He grabbed one of the fluffy seats and waited for something to happen. When nothing did, he sighed. "Fucken Lena man..." he grumbled out. His voice was laced with distasted. "How could you not tell someone something so fucken important the moment it fucken happens." He began and sighed hard. His anger was getting the best of him. "She waited two fucken months before she told me, and we could have done something to prepare more for it or hell I don't know..." he said as he shook his head. "I'm not a fit person to be a dad." He told him, he didn't want to come out and say it. He didn't want to say that Lena was pregnant at the moment. Saying that he was going to be a dad was enough. He fell back on to the fluffy pillows and let out a strangled scream. He wasn't having the best day at all.
