Cam and Iris stood in the queue at Lima Bean, waiting for their turn. It was fairly busy and the baristas were rushing around trying to get orders given out. Cam slipped his hand in his girlfriend's causing her to look up into his eyes. She smiled brightly and the urge to kiss her cherry red lips was strong.
"You're leaving tomorrow," Cam began, playing with her fingers. "We should do something, just the two of us. Like a date."
Iris's smile widened, "I'd love that."
"And I want nothing more than to kiss you right now."
"And I would let you if my dad wasn't sitting at a table five feet from where we are. Not to mention the fact that Barry is sitting beside him." Iris scolded.
Cam grinned and settled for placing a kiss on the back of her hand, smirking when she her cheeks rouged.
They grabbed the coffees and brought them back to the table. Vanessa smiled when she saw the coffee, much to Chris's relief: she had been cranky all morning because the hotel's coffee machine broke down.
"So Iris, you're leaving tomorrow. We should do something together, just the two of us." BARry said with a small smile. Iris's eyes widened as she glanced at Cam, unsure what to say. Her mouth opened and closed like a fish as she searched for words.
Thankfully she was saved by Becky's insistent whining, "I'm leaving tomorrow too, babe." Her high pitched voice rang through Iris's ears like a siren. "I wanted to hang before I leave."
Before a fight could break out Joe stepped in, "How about going to the fair today, all together. That way you can all spend time together before we go back home." he suggested.
Barry frowned and, try as he might, Cam couldn't help but mimic his expression as his face fell, but Iris merely grinned and claimed, "Great idea, Dad."
Breakfast went smoothly after that and the six soon found themselves in front of a ticket master at a carnival. They bought five tokens each and looked around at the different things there were to do.
"Ooooh cotton candy," Iris yelped as she dragged Barry and Cam along with her. Becky clung desperately to Barry's side as Vanessa and Chris trailed behind, trapped in their own euphoria of love. They paid for the food then Vanessa and Chris parted ways to play a grab the duck game. Becky pulled Barry towards a shack in which you had to throw three balls into a bucket. He watch dejectedly as Iris and Cam walked towards a roller coaster, and his annoyance at Becky's clinginess increased. He sighed and threw the first ball, it fell into the bucket with a plonk and the other two balls followed suit. Becky squealed and the noise rang in Barry's ears. He groaned audibly as Becky took the bear from the guy at the shack. They both turned to see Cam and Iris looking whiplashed as they got off the rollercoaster. Her eyes were bright and her cheeks flushed, she looked like an angel - the sight made Barry smile as he dragged Becky towards them, causing Cam to scowl gloomily, and roll his eyes.
Not too far away, Nick sat on his bed with his laptop resting on his thighs was he typed away furiously. It was a rare occasion to see him not in his Dalton uniform but Jeff was having an extremely lucky day. So when he walked in on Nick wearing a tight t-shirt and simple blue jeans, it was only to be expected. His eyes darkened lustfully and he struggled to say any words.
Finally he managed to let out a strangled, "Hey,"and watched as Nick looked up, smiling brilliantly and gesturing for his best friend to sit beside him. Jeff attempted a smile but it was more of a grimace as he tried to keep his hands to himself when Nick closed the lap top and scooted closer to him. He gulped and stared at his friend talking animatedly, the words not quite registering in his mind. All he could see was his lips moving and the urge to kiss him was hard to keep at bay. He pulled his eyes away from his lush pink lips and looked anywhere else but his eyes landed on his chest. That shirt was definitely doing him justice and his muscles were clear and noticeable against the cotton material. His breathing picked up and his heart rate quickened when he felt a hand on his forehead. He looked up to see Nicks concerned face and made out the words, "Are you okay?"
