Today was Spots birthday today and he was turning 16, which meant today had to be special because even though he never likes to make a fuss of himself, if you pay attention you'll see the way his eyes light up when someone so much as utters the words 'happy birthday' to him. As much as we all refer to him as the king of brooklyn ( for being the only one of us from brooklyn) today it was only necessary to treat him like a king. Starting with Race and Jack waking him with a bucket of water after a much deserved lie in. Next was a breakfast fit for a king, which Medda agreed should be topped with a candle and on a plate i painted for him the first summer we came here that she also kept.
3RD PERSON
If you were to ask Medda if she had any favourite campers shed say she loved them all the same but, in truth, she looks upon a certain group of New Yorkers with motherly love that she would have for her own children if she could have them. They were the only kids to have gone to camp for the last 3 years and stayed and they without a doubt all plan to go in years to come until they were too old and wasnt allowed back, none of them were ready for that, including Medda. Getting older was inevitable but so were their bonds, from the very first day when Race and Charlie teamed up to defend Crutchy from the harsh insults of the delancey brothers, the rest was history.
CHARLIES POV
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY SPOTTY" i shouted as i wrapped my arms around his shoulders as he sat infront of me
"Thanks dollface" he said with a cheeky grin tucking back into his waffle
TIMESKIP
Ever since that day on the lake the birthday boy has been particularly touchy and i was admittedly enjoying that more than i should. But today he was practically clinging onto me and i definitely wasn't imagining it because even Mush was raising his eyebrows at us on more than one occasion but after a day of celebrations and hand placements, Race and I walking from the kitchen to Spots cabin where everyone else was.
"So," Race started,"You and Spot?"
"I dont know what you talking about" i replied covering up the rose tint that festered across my cheeks and wide eyed fluster, quite well if i dont say so myself.
"Oh come one, Char, dont give me that shit you could be practicly pregnant from the looks he gives you. Not to mention youre smitten with him"
"No im not"
"Yes you are"
"No, im not"
"Yes you-"
"Okay so what if i am"
"I knew it," i gave him a somewhat 'fed up' look," okay okay look, if you like him give him a birthday present"
"Huh? But we never do presents"
"No char, do i have to spell it out for you, you can be his present" then it clicked if what Race says is the truth and he does like me the same i do him maybe today is the perfect time to let him know. As we walked through the door just looking at him made my heart skip a beat. The longer everyone sat comfortably the more my heart sped until i couldn't take it.
