Love Love Camp | ♡ Max x Neil ♡ |

× Telling feelings × | Chapter 12

Neil's P.O.V

Me, Max, and Nikki were hiding in the dark Mess Hall kitchen, crouching next to the fridge and trying to quiet our breathing.

We had escaped from doing other stupid camp activities, and now David was trying to find us, we were doing everything in our power to NOT do the activities.

Usually, I would be the good kid and follow the counselor around like a puppy, but I don't want Max to think of me like that, and being good is boring anyway.

I sighed and glanced at the other two, sitting down and leaning against the wall.

"You know, I'm kinda getting bored sitting here."

I said, yawning and crossing my legs. Nikki shook her head while Max rolled his eyes, snickering and looking over at the cupboards again.

"Meh, better than being out there with a bunch of boring people AND someone who has a creepy crush on me."

Max said, shrugging his shoulders and sitting on his legs. Nikki glanced at me and smirked, she knew that I was happy he didn't like Nurf.

I just flipped her off and smiled a small smile, playfully glaring at her as she stood up.

She stretched and yawned, doing a cartwheel in the middle of the kitchen and then jumping onto the counter.

"Why are you doing gymnastics in the KITCHEN?"

Max asked, she just shrugged and grinned before jumping on random sh‣t and making A LOT of noise.

We just shook our heads as I stood up from my spot, I guess nobody's going to find us in here.

I opened the fridge and bent down in front of it, quickly glancing around before groaning and shutting it. There was literally nothing in the fridge, it was empty.

I heard Max giggle and stand up, reaching for the freezer only to be too short to reach the handle.

I snickered and looked down at him, putting my hands on my hips and smirking.

He glared and stood on his toes, grabbing onto what he could of the handle and opening it.

I looked inside to see some popsicles, and I immediately took three out and shut it.

I handed one to him, hearing him mutter a 'Thanks' as I walked over to Nikki.

She was sitting in one of the drawers and messing with silverware, so I plopped the popsicle in her lap and walked back to Max.

He was sat on the floor again, licking his popsicle happily as I sat down and unwrapped mine. His was a banana flavor, mine was blue razzberry, and Nikki's was orange.

I bit the top of the popsicle, nodding my head a little and looking off to the side. It was actually pretty good, I expected it to be a knock-off flavor of blue razzberry or something.

I glanced over at Max to see him looking up at the ceiling, licking his popsicle from the bottom to the top slowly, which made a shiver go down my spine in a weird way.

I blushed and looked away, these feelings are going to kill me one day.

Why can't I just say it and get it over with? Do I really like him THAT much that I'm scared to see his reaction?

That's just being a huge pansy right there, and I am not a pansy...

Okay, maybe I am, but that doesn't change the fact that I am acting stupid right now.

I could accidentally say it wrong and then he would freak out, he already has someone who has a creepy crush on him, so why add stress by adding another crush to that?
