Camp Life

Chapter Seven

Breakfast was finished alot quicker than you'd imagine. Both AJ and Nico ended up eating a pancake. Not once did the blush on Nico's face falter.

Today AJ actually had stuff to do, and she was not pleased about it either. It took about five hours for her to finish all her training, and four hours for Leo to finish his.

AJ walked back to her cabin after showering to find a note, neatly folded on her bed.

Will you please meet me by the lake at 3:30? Pretty please? With a cherry on top? -Leo

AJ laughed, checking the time only to see that is was already 3:25. She panicked, until she remembered the lake wasn't that for from her cabin. She walked out of the cabin, putting the note in her pocket for safe keeping.

"Hey." She greeted Leo, who was sitting in the sand. He looked up at her and smiled. "Sit." He said. AJ laughed, but sat down in sand. "what's up?" She asked. Leo tilted his head to the side, as if examining her, "I just wanted to see you." He said, blushing slightly. AJ smiled a little at that.

"I have a question," Leo said after a minute, AJ looked over at him, "Why, exactly, was Nico blushing this morning?" He asked her. AJ laughed, "When I walked into the room, they were in the exact same position as last night, only they were sleeping," she stopped to take a breath before continuing, "Nico didn't realize that we had seen them last night, and almost threw a book at my head." She finished saying. Leo laughed, "does he know that I saw it too?" He asked, AJ nodded, yawning. "Tired?" Leo asked. "yeah, a bit." She told him, laying her head on his shoulder.

Leo stood up after a minute, grabbed AJ's hand, and pulled her to her feet. AJ looked confused until she saw that they were going back to her cabin. Leo always seemed to like to hang out in there, though he will never admit it.

when they got there, AJ crawled into her bed, and Leo stayed at the door. AJ was too tired to really think about or remember it, but when he closed the door to leave, she could have sworn she heard him whisper, "Goodnight, darling, I love you."
