[GL] Black Gold

Chapter 33

Camie started opening up to Théa more and more and every time she saw her she tried paying attention to the things she said and the things she liked. Théa could feel the shift and she tried her best not to blush. She was really happy that she was getting closer to Camie and the latter's friends could see it. Therefore they did their best to invite Théa to their outings and the five of them started hanging out together quite a lot.

Camie on the other hand was scared that she would forget something so she started writing a list of Théa's likes and dislikes. She did feel that it was weird however so she only wrote in it when no one was around.

"Am I a stalker?"

Camie shook her head. No. She just wanted to be a good friend to Théa. But then why wasn't she doing the same for her other friends? Camie looked at her notebook and looked at how many empty pages she had left. Should she do the same for her other friends? That way it wouldn't be weird anymore and if someone saw her notebook, she could just say that she was a very good friend.

This idea pleased Camie and she started writing down everything she knew about her friends. While doing the list she realized that she had way more information about Théa than the others. Maybe she shouldn't have felt bad in the first place. She thought that she didn't know anything about Théa but it seemed she knew more than enough. Should she stop taking notes?

Camie couldn't decide so she continued taking her notebook with her everywhere. This way if she needed to write something down, she could. And just the thought of having the notebook calmed her down enough for her to completely forget about it and she never opened the pocket it was in ever again.

While she was sitting with her friends she still had that notebook in her bag, unaware of its existence. Most of the time when Camie met her friends, they would sit down in the grass or meet in the cafeteria. It was the prior this time as they sat down next to the football field. Camie didn't really know what the others were talking about because she suddenly noticed something red.

"It's really rare that they have the blueberry one. It's the best one so you have to come very early if you want to have one.

-Was that always there?"

The girls stopped talking and Théa who had been staring at Camie this whole time followed her gaze:

"The toy capsule machine?"

Camie quickly nodded. She never noticed that there were toy capsule machines on campus. Who had such a genius idea?

"Yes. If I recall correctly, it has been there for the last three years."

Emma rolled her eyes:

"Why would we have such a machine on campus?"

Nylora quickly elbowed her in the side:

"I think some people might like it."

She discreetly pointed at Camie and Emma immediately straightened up:

"I meant why would we only have one such machine? We should have more. They are really fun."

Topiary raised her thumbs and Emma sighed. She could have said anything however because Camie wasn't listening at all. She was staring at the tiny dinosaur plush on the machine and she couldn't look away. That dinosaur was adorable. She wanted it. But she needed 2 euros and she didn't have any on her. But what if the dinosaurs were gone by the time she came back? But she couldn't ask someone for money. What should she do? She really wanted that dinosaur. And what if she didn't get the dinosaur? There were other animals in the picture and despite really wanting the dinosaur, Camie would have been satisfied even with any other one. But she still preferred the dinosaur.
