Caligo Lake Summer Camp (IC)

[ImmortalComplex]

Smoke rolled out of the windows of the van as Alter pulled into the summer camp. He was a bit late. But he wasnt going to turn down going to an end of the year party with his friends. Besides, he needed to get some supplies for the summer.

Alter realized that he may not be able to procure all of the illegal materials he usually partook upon while he was there. So there was only one option. He turned his van into a mobile grow op, and threw his plants inside. He was planning on hiding the van out in the woods where no one would go. He couldn't let his business go out just because its summer vacation, could he?

He also loaded the van down with enough alcohol to get the camp drunk for a week. And he had a friend ready to deliver more at a moments notice. (okay, maybe like a few days) Alter had called in a lot of favors from friends to get these supplies. But it was all going to be worth it this summer.

He creeped the van deep into the woods near a half mile away from the camp. Far enough away that no one would find it unless they knew it was there.

He unhinged his bike from on top of the van and began on his way to the camp.

When he got there, the campers where all engaged in conversation around a large bonfire. He just decided to slip in and star at the fire. He loved fires Mayyne

The sounds of the forest were covered by the sounds of their heartbeats, as two massive bass tubes they thumped in unison. The feeling her nails on his cheek and the hand that obstinately stood between them. The arm that was around her waist moved up over her dress along her spine until it reached the part of his back left bare by her colorful dress. His other hand slid down from under her head over the knot that held up her dress tracing the line of her spine down until the two hands met. With both his hand on her bare back he broke of the kiss moving ever so slowly down, his lips making contact with her her neck going down on her collarbone. Then with a swift movement he picked Iris of her feet, whispering in he ear "Do we continue here or in our cabin?"

Colton unlocked his cabin door and walked into the bathroom. After he peed he sighed and looked at himself in the mirror. Brooke's words kept echoing in his head. No, no that couldn't be true... Tons of girls liked younger guys didn't they? Right? Something was telling him no. But then why did she let him kiss her like that? He sighed and rubbed the back of his head. Suddenly, he didn't really feel like going back to the fire. Was he just being melodramatic over this? Probably. But he did like her...

Colton left the cabin quietly and thought he'd head back after grabbing something from the mess hall. He stepped onto the bridge and noticed it was empty. And quiet. Each footstep was amplified on the metal bridge and it seemed to disturb the calm of the scene. He walked past the camp store and entered the mess hall. There were a few people hanging around but not a lot. He walked up to the buffet and grabbed a sprite can from a bucket of ice. Opening it with that extremely satisfying hiss and pop, he left the mess hall, taking slow sips.

As he was heading back, he began to think. Should he... should he confront Nicole about, you know, being younger? Should he just back off?

Tai mi was getting bored quickly, just watching everyone. She was enjoying the people watching but she wanted somebody to talk too, as well. She spotted one of her roommates, Gwen, but she was talking to that Brooke girl and Tai mi didn't feel like dealing with her. She sighed, looking at the fire and watching it reach towards the sky. She looked around again and saw someone she hadn't seen before coming to the fire. She rose an eyebrow, seeing he wasn't talking to anyone, unlike everyone else. She came here to make new friends, she might as well do that. Being such a socialist back home, she could simply introduce herself to someone. Slowly, she stood up, and approached the newcomer. "Hey!" she said, casting a kind smile at him. "I'm Tai mi but you can call me Tam." she said, putting her hand out for a hand shake. After all, she thought hand shakes were the kind thing to do, despite their age and generation.

[ImmortalComplex]

Alter was startled by the girl who just randomly walked up to him. He had sat down literally 30 seconds prior, and he was already making new friends.

Alter took the girls hand into his own two. "It is truly a pleasure to meet you Tam. I actually just rolled into camp a second ago, and your the first person I have talked too. But maybe you can help me out. Who are the camp councelers around here? And where are the authority figures located? Because I dont want to crack a bottle in front of the wrong people, you know?

Alter returned her smile with one of his own. She seemed like an extremely nice person.

Tai mi smiled when he started to speak. He seemed like a gentleman and she liked that instantly. She listened to him talk and then, her eyebrows rose up at his last sentence. She was surprised, she admitted. She had drunk plenty times before, she went to her fair share of parties back home, but she didn't expect anyone to bring alcohol here. It didn't bother her in the least, it just surprised he actually managed to sneak some in. "It's nice to meet you too," she said, glad she was making this new friend. It was best to be friends with the one who brought all the good stuff, right? "Oh, you didn't go to the Activities Center? You can speak to someone there and get your cabin key. And you only get one, so be sure to hang onto it tight." she said, giving a soft smile. "If you want, I can lead you there or something." she added, trying to be helpful. And it's not like she was talking to anyone else anyway.

[ImmortalComplex]

Alter was suprised by her jesture.

"You could? That would be great of you actually! I thought it was too late to check in tonight." He chuckled to himself "I was fully expecting to have to crash out on the beach tonight."

The girl seemed nice enough. Alter thought it was cool of her to strike up a conversation with him. He would be sure to pay it forward at some later point. Though the warmth of the fire felt great after the cold drive there with no heater, Alter stood up and dusted the ash and dirt off of him. He tied his long dreads back in a pony tail and slipped his coat back on.

"Lead the way" He said with a smile

Gwen frowned. That didn't look much like an apology to me. . . . She knew better than to start an argument, though. "That's nice. I'm sure you feel a lot better, having gotten that off your chest! So you've talked to that other girl, too?" she added, nodding across the fire at Nicole. She already knew the answer, though. "That's good; it's probably best to get the whole thing behind you and smooth everything out." Careful, Gwen, she reminded herself. You're treading a thin line here. Her original plan to be nice to Brooke and the decision that she wasn't all bad had died the moment that Gwen felt like she was being lied to. You're not here to make enemies or start trouble. Just forgive without apologies. That was the best way to get through life, she figured.

As Gwen thought, she'd looked away from Brooke and around at the gathered campers. She'd noticed Tam there, and thought about calling her over to chat, but then her roommate started talking to someone Gwen didn't recognize. Hey, she thought, a grin slowly spreading across her face. He's hot. . . I'll have to ask Tam to introduce me later. Gwen had completely forgotten about Brooke at this point.

[Freeze]

"So you've talked to that other girl, too?" Gwen had asked. Brooke looked away. "Um," she said. She didn't really want to lie too much to the girl she had actually started to become friends with, so she decided to be truthful. "Not yet," she admitted. "I'm kinda nervous too, after the fight." She mentioned the last part in a small voice so no one would hear. When she looked back to Gwen she noticed that she hadn't even been listening. Or maybe she just wasn't looking. Before Brooke got mad she followed her gaze to the new boy who was beginning to walk away with that Asian girl from earlier... What was her name? Tam? Yeah. Brooke, strangely, didn't get mad. She playfully nudged Gwen's shoulder (which could be mistaken for aggressive) and said, "Earth to Gwen, someone on your mind?"
