Kevin's POV
"Okay!" Elder Cunningham says. "Because since Nabulungi and I are camping together, you and Elder McKinley get to share a tent."
He got Nabulungi's name right-wait, excuse me?!
"W-well," I say, trying to cover up my mini heart attack. "Who would Elder Thomas share a tent with?"
"He and Elder Church already decided to camp together. Actually, everyone has already teamed up with another elder or villager except for you and Elder McKinley."
Connor coughs, his cheeks a beautiful shade of scarlet. "I, um."
"I'd be okay with it," I say, turning to him to pass a message through my look. "There's nothing wrong with it right?"
"Right," Connor replies, smiling down at me. Why is he so hecking cute-
"Awesome!" Elder Cunningham exclaims, standing up from next to me. "Okay, so your guys' tent is the last one on the right. Net Neutrality and I are going to go and start a fire for s'mores!" So long for him getting her name right.
"I've never had them before," Nabulungi confesses.
"She's going to love them!" Elder Cunningham grabs her hand and pulls her across the grass as the girl casts one last speculating look at Connor and I.
"So, tent-mate," I say, winking at Connor who blushes even more furiously. My little pink boi. "You excited?"
"To sleep? Yes," he stutters, and I laugh a little. He sits next to me facing the hill that we hiked over, waiting for the others to come over the crest. His hand scoots into mine before lacing his fingers through my own. I grip his and and hold it with both of mine, causing him to smile.
Elder Church and Elder Thomas finally arrive, laughing about something as Elder Thomas pulls crumbs from a s'mores (he eats for the occasion) poptarts box.
"I'm tired," Elder Thomas complains.
"You were bursting with energy when we were climbing up the hill," Elder Church says with a disgusted face.
"Yes, but that was seven minutes ago. Those seven minutes have exhausted me beyond human comprehension."
Elder Church just sighs.
"I think Elder Cunningham and Nabulungi are setting up a fire to roast food over there-" Connor starts.
"fIRE!" Elder Thomas exclaims, and sprints away.
"I should probably go supervise him," Elder Church says chuckling, following after his friend. And then, so quietly I could have misheard it- "my love will be the death of me."
Excuse me!? mY lOvE?! ElDEr CHurCh wHat ThE acTUaL-
"Kevin," Connor murmurs, snapping me out of my daze. "Kev, what's the matter?"
"gAyyYYyyyYyYyyyyyYyYYYYYyyY."
"What the actual freak Kevin."
I slowly point after Elder Church and Elder Thomas. "They're gay."
Connor looks at where I'm pointing before looking back at me, shocked. "Elder Thomas and Elder Church?"
I nod.
Connor laughs abruptly. "Wow."
I shake my head. "Yeah, no, not going to think about that right now."
Connor rests his head on my shoulder, confident that no one's watching. "Good idea."
We walk over and join the group at the fire as more villagers and elders sit next to us on the logs around the firepit. Connor continuously steals little looks over at me, making me look at my feet in pointless attempts not to blush. That boy.
"Let's tell spooky stories!" Elder Cunningham suggests.
"Yeah, okay," Elder Neeley laughs.
"I have one!" Elder Schrader says. "Okay, so when I was eleven, I accidentally found a dirty magazine in my dad's office, and that night..." he leaned in close to the fire so the flickering lights cast menacing shadows on his face. "I had a dream where Jesus called me a poopoo head!" The elders gasp.
The villagers sit unimpressed. "I saw my brother get eaten alive by a snake," Kimbay says offhandedly.
The elders go quiet.
"And then it threw him up," Kimbay muses.
"Oh yeah!" Gotswana says. "I was there!"
"Yeah!"
"Okay then!" Elder Cunningham says, standing up frantically. "Um, no more scary stories! Bedtime guys! Yay! Nicki Minaj, lets go." He takes Nabulungi's hand and they leave for their tent.
Connor stands and stretches as I stare unabashedly at him. He notices and laughs. "Alright, Kev-Elder Price. Let's get some sleep."
"Us too, Chr-Elder Poptarts," Elder Church says, rising as well. They disappear towards their tent, pinky fingers linked. Connor towards me gaping, and I nod in confirmation. I indeed saw that. No, I cannot believe it.
I leave with Connor, walking across the dark grass in a comfortable silence to our tent. He opens the flap for me, and I crawl in to get my bag. Connor unzips his backpack and pulls out a simple pink sleeping bag and lies down on it, waiting for me to settle. I open my bag and take out my blue Cinderella sleeping bag. I climb on top of it and face Connor, who is clearly trying not to laugh. It's not hard to notice- this tent is so small, our noses are practically touching.
"Well, goodnight then Connor," I say, smiling coyly and unzipping my sleeping bag.
"Do I not get a goodnight kiss?" He whines.
I roll back to face him. "Depends. See-"
I can't finish my sentence, because Connor's lips very rudely interrupt my sentence. Not that I mind. I kiss him back as I roll on top of him. As soon as he pulls back in the slightest for air, I roll off and climb into my sleeping bag. "Night!"
"No!" Connor tugs at my shoulder as I smirk. "No!" He determinedly unzips my sleeping bag and climbs inside, zipping it behind him. "I need a proper one."
"Was that not proper enough for you?"
He pulls my face down and kisses me softly, sweetly, before pulling back to rest his forehead against mine. "That is a proper kiss."
"Gotcha," I say breathily. He smiles, and I kiss his nose gently. "Goodnight Con."
"Goodnight Kev," Connor says, snuggling into the crook of my neck and closing his eyes. I wrap my arms around him and sigh in to his hair. Yeah, okay. This was pretty great.
This moment made camping almost, almost worth it.
