The Hope in Our Scars

It was about 10 when Leo and I finally landed and made camp. It was on small island of Ogyilium, you've never heard of it haven't you? Of course, it was just a small island miles away from our last one. It was under the influence of the "mist" so no mortals could have seen this island.
Mortals? You may ask. What the hell are you if you're not human?
Leo and I have got to know each other, throughout the past hours. I've learned he was a demigod ( a product of a deity and mortal, how I do not know), and he too has been wiped of his memory, only leaving him with only a handful of knowledge from his previous life. I, too , had hard times trying to recall the memories of my past. The only facts I could remember that my name is Lilac, and I was sent on an important mission, I couldn't seem to piece together. I also knew for a fact, that I was not mortal too, since I clearly had the power to see through the mist. Even though, Leo and I have just became companions in a short time period, I knew with every bone in my body, I could trust him and he could rely on me.
Near the flames that sparked and danced to the rhythm in the night, I leaned my head on Leo's shoulder, and he started to stroke my hair, which made me blush slightly.
After being served some of Leo Valdez's famous tofu tacos (which I was priviledged to try on this beautiful evening).
We were on the shore, laying down next to each other, I had stripped off my flanel shirt, wearing a black tanktop that matched the shade of the sky, jeans, and was barefoot. Leo also decided to discard his orange camp half-blood t-shirt, because of the intense heat that surrounded us like an inside of an oven. So he was wearing my flannel shirt unbuttoned exposing his abdomen (the shirt was too baggy for me anyway), only wearing some pants, and was barefoot as well.
We were to put it simply, just gazing at the stars, and in lost thoughts about our unfamiliar past. Who are my parents? Where do I come from? Are my loved ones still out there? This frightening thought made me shiver from the thoughts despite the extreme temperatures. Leo, seeming concerned of my sudden coldness, slowly took off the flanel shirt, and gently placed it around my shoulders, and placed a firm grip onto my shoulders. This made me once again blush very terribly as Leo Valdez sat beside me half-exposed, and was trying to boost my confidence which has terribly decreased in so many ways.
"It's going to be alright," he said, in a serious tone that took me by surprise.
I couldn't help it anymore. With Leo's words of reassurance, I found myself shedding tears of homesickness and grief and anger. I couldn't forgive myself or the horrible evildoer who took my memories and sent me on a punishment trip in absolute isolation except for this kind, humorous, beautiful twist in her so far horrible life. The only good part of it all was Leo. Who was the only person who could give me confidence and gave me hope just by standing next to me.
I gave Leo a small smile. "Thanks, Leo," I said.
This made him grin too. "I would be disappointed to see a stunning beautiful damsel, being depressed and sad."
"I'm not beautiful, Valdez."
"Shut up, Prince Valdez, thinks Malady is the most beautiful woman to walk upon this miserable guilt trip aka known as life."
I burst out laughing as if Leo's remark was the most powerful sunshine and memory I have gained throughout the past few days. And it could be indeed, I thought.
Leo smiled a grand smile, that made my heart ache in knowing I would never be in the same league as him. "I'm not kidding you are," he whispered into my ear. Which left a faint cool breath that bounced against my neck. "I can show you how attractive I think you are," he joked, wiggling his eyebrows.
I tried not to laugh and elbowed him to shut up.
"Like I said before Leo I'm not attra-"
A set of lips pushing against mine, stopped myself from saying anything. I knew through all of the wet sensation, and raging hormones inside of me that Leo Valdez was kissing me. He was kissing me. I was half-still-in disbelief mode, but my other self just went on with the flow. I wrapped my arms around his neck, and kissed back. A soft moan of happiness escaped from Leo's lips. As he trailed down my lips, chin and started to suck on my neck. He finally paused after a few more seconds, and looked at me in the eye. Sparks of humor danced in his warm brown eyes.
"Now do you think that your still not-"
I slowly, but swiftly, pressed my lips onto his, in which another moan, escaped his lips, and made me feel pleasure and happiness. I think I had given him an answer to his question.
