Halfborn's POV:
TJ and I were sparing each other, while Mallory spared with a dummy. I was a bit distracted by Mallory, her green-orange eyes fierce as she attacked the dummy.
"Halfborn, I've stabbed you three times, would you pay attention."
"Yeah sure," I say snapping my attention to TJ.
It was Saturday and Floor 19 decided to take the day off. After sneaking out of the hotel in the wee hours of the morning. We headed to the store to spend our Valhalla issued money, then headed to a state park.
We arrived and had a picnic, next to a stream that leads to a small waterfall which falls to a lake, eating sandwiches. Mallory thew her lettuce at me and I throw a tomato at her, this started a food fight. It ended when TJ wouldn't let us through the mini cakes.
We all had tomato, lettuce, mayo, mustard, in our faces, and hair. We ate our cupcakes, I smeared mine all over my beard.
"Halfborn your mouth is big enough, how come all of the cupcake is missing it?" TJ said, Mallory laughed, with the sun behind her, highlighting her red hair and green eyes.
I grabbed some lettuce from my shoulder and flung it at TJ. That earned a snicker from Mal, a fluffy feeling twinged inside of me, like it does whenever I make her laugh.
Mallory got up and went to a nearby stream, she began skipping rocks. I stared at her, her flying hair, soft smile on her lips, "see something you like Gunderson?" TJ asks, startling me.
"Shut up,"
"Just a question."
"I said, shut up."
"Hmm, I see. So you wouldn't mind if I set her up with say Erik from floor 26?" TJ asked with smugness.
I stand up and make my way to Mallory, "by the way your cheeks match her hair!" TJ says behind me, I give him a death glare and I could see him gulp.
I stand by Mal grabbing a stone I examine it. "Bet I can get more skips then you." I say.
"You're on." She said looking me in the eye.
We started skipping rocks competitively with our einherji strength, I was crushing Mallory with sixteen skips. "Take that Keen!"
Skipping her rock we watch it jump across the water twenty times. "Yes!" She jumped up, her arms spread in victory.
"Oh, lucky shot." I say with an eye roll. I then push her into the river, she squealed as she fell to the shallow river floor.
She popped up red faced, TJ comes over laughing, I push him as well. Mallory laughs, getting up she tries to push me over. I laugh at her attempts, TJ comes to help her. My skin feels warm where Mallory's hands are on my back.
Picking her up I hold her over the waterfall by her ankles. "Gunderson! Put me down!" I swing her slightly, "put you down? Okay." I say with a smirk.
I lower her into the water, then pull her back up. I do this a few more times before I drop her. Mallory chucks a rock at my head, "oaf." She exclaims.
TJ is laughing his head off, "your turn Jefferson." I say picking him up I throw him into the lake. I jump in myself, creating a large splash.
We slash and dunk each other for hours before it got late the packing up we began to head back to the hotel, soaked and laughing with a few bumps and cuts here and there from rocks we either threw at each other or from falling.
"Night idiots." Mallory muttered before heading to her room. "Don't worry big guy your secrets safe with me." TJ winks at me before going to his room.
"That little pest," I say under my breath before heading to my own room.
