We talked and joked around the rest of the afternoon on that little picnic blanket. When it was time to leave we both put what what left in the basket and I wrapped myself up in the blanket for warmth. As we walked back smiling I realized I had been so distracted by everything else that I had forgotten my whole mission!
"So... It just occurred to me that I've known you for over 3 months and I still don't know your name..." I said awkwardly as we walked "or do you just want me to call you Fox Man for awhile longer?" I snickered and caught him rolling his eyes at me.
"My name is Alex" he said with a smile.
"I'm Raven, but you somehow already knew that" I giggled a little and he smiled "how did you know that anyways?" I asked.
"A magician never tells his secrets" Alex chuckled and it was my turn to roll my eyes.We reached camp and I was surprised and a bit scared that Miranda hadn't even bothered to show up, maybe she decided not to? I hoped so, it would spare me some embarrassment...
"Hey you two!" Thought to soon I thought as Miranda flew over "how was the date?" She ask like it was no big deal.
I felt my cheeks heat up "it wasn't a-" I started but Alex interrupted "It was great, we had a wonderful time" he said happily causing me to defiantly turn red as a rose, did he seriously think it was a date?! "It-" I was just cut of again by Alex "let's go to our tent Raven" she said, taking my hand and walking to the tent we had stayed in the night before, practically dragging me along.When we entered the tent I instantly flipped out "what was all that about?! It wasn't a date!" I whisper yelled, I didn't want to disturb anyone/thing.
"I know" he said calmly.
"I never s- wait... You do?" I was confused and I must have showed it on my face because he quickly explained.
"Miranda is a pixie... Let her think what she wants and life will be a lot smoother for you here, alright?" He told me and it just nodded, not really knowing what to say "plus I like to think it was" he said quietly and started making his bed, I blushed, not knowing if I was meant to hear that I just decided to leave the awkward situation and hope the flustered fluffy feeling I had wasn't me forming a crush on a fox.
