Camp Half-Blood

"You can't escape, it will always be there. Lurking, waiting for you!"

 

" Yeah." Auden said, grinning at them. "If- if that isn't too fast? You're really cute."
((Auden's current emotional state: :D)

 

Jack grinned, too. "If we're going to, we should do it right now so I can kiss you before Adara kisses pink and fluffy over there. It'll annoy her so much."

 

Auden giggled, like, an actual giggle. " That sounds like a perfectly reasonable decision" he said, grinning broadly. "So uh- how do you think we should-?"

 

"Stop overthinking it and kiss me," Jack said quietly.

 

Auden kisses them, right on the lips, which was more complicated then expected because of the whole hand-holding thing. He pulled back after a few seconds, now definitely blushing. "Hi"

 

"Hi. Wow. I'm. Am I dreaming? Wait, hold on." Jack turned to Adara. "Ha!"

Turning back to Auden, they said, "So, now what?"

 

"Well I'd like to keep dreaming, if you are," Auden said. "Sorry that was terrible. I would like to keep holding hands. That's nice."

 

"I hope I'm not dreaming. You're too pretty and I never remember my dreams and -" they take a deep breath. "Do you want to - you said you wanted to show me that show, do you want to, to make it a date?"

 

" Yes!" Auden said, managing to actually make it into a word. "That'd be really nice."
He laughed. "You think we shouldrejoin the adorapocalypse over there?"

 

"Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo," Adara exclaimed, mock-dramatically. She giggled.

 

Jack grinned. "It's a date, then. Yeah, we should probably rejoin them before one or the other dies of cuteness overload."

 

Larkspur burst into laughter. As she did, she looked over and saw the (adorable) kiss.
"Hey, Adara, we've been beaten," she said, in between laughs.

 

Adara looked over and observed the very end of the kiss. "....godsdammit. Also, wow, that was fast. But they're cute together." She smirked. "I'm teasing Jack about this later." She hoped they would catch up to the other two, but didn't dare say as much, just in case.

 

"You have to tease him about it, absolutely."
Should I ask if I can kiss her? Larkspur thought. Maybe that would be moving to quickly. Just a bit.
Instead, she reached out and poked Adara.

 

"Oh, I definitely will," Adara said with a grin, before responding by poking Larkspur back.

 

This meant war, Larkspur thought. A poke war!
She poked back, again.

 

Adara giggled. "Poke war, I see." She poked back.

 

Larkspur retaliated by poking her, and then flopped forward to try to give her a (slightly restraining) hug.

 

Adara wriggled around until she could successfully poke Larkspur back.
