She wasn't surprised that she had confused him, his raised eyebrows had proved that. Still, he had started nodding and that made her smile a little wider. Sure, it was a bit vigorous and excitable, but that just made him even more adorable. She didn't only think he was cute though. he was a good looking guy, handsome. Then he spoke and she felt her own cheeks heating up as he agreed and offered to meet her around eight. "Yeah, yeah eight's good. Demeter Cabin," her face scrunched up at that for a split second, embarrassed that she felt the need to mention her cabin. Name as if he didn't already know. "But for now, I guess we can head out," she said after a moment, gesturing toward the door again. They'd need to get ready for tonight anyway... right?

At his answer she felt instantly relieved. She didn't know why, but it made her relax enough to start smiling again. "All right," she said, confused at why her smile kept growing. "I'm sorry," she chuckled, "that was a really personal question. What I'm trying to say is-" what was happening? What was she doing? She stepped forward again. "Is that I think we should go to dinner tonight. Like a date, I mean," she finished her sentence and then held her breath, her hands strangely placed at her sides as if she didn't know what to do with them.

Their faces were incredible close and their hands were still in contact as they looked over at each other. She caught her breath as he stuttered, then she caught her breath after a moment and nodded. "I- it does. Thanks," she muttered, unsure of how to proceed. She was frozen. If this had been six months ago, she would have probably been brave enough to kiss him. But now... things were different. Still, her eyes flickered to his lips and she decided it was best to start with a question.
"Have you ever kissed someone, Charlie?" she asked, hoping her face wasn't as bright red as she felt it could be right now.

It was silly, the way the danced around each other while simply hanging a picture. The conversation seemed so innocent and calm, whereas her stomach was twisting and her heart was going a million miles a minute. She crossed over to him when he asked if that was a good spot. "That's perfect, just... hold it close to the side there," she said, reaching up to gently push one of his hands so the painting was flesh against the grassy, rooty wall. Then she willed the roots to wrap around the edges of the painting, creating a makeshift frame that would also hold it to the wall. "Now move your hands..." she muttered, pulling back gently on his hand that she was already touching.

She felt her heart beating loudly in her ears as he came into her hideout. It was like showing a part of her soul. But he had done that with letting her see his painting skill, right? So there they were, soul bearing to one another and acting... well, a little whimsical and foolish. It was kind of a nice feeling. At his question, she lifting her hand to her chin in thought. "Hmmm.. perhaps over the desk? " she suggested, pointing at the spot. She took a step forward, toward him, "it makes more sense than over the bed," she chuckled.

Soon they had arrived. They were next to the lake and it seemed as though there was nothing different or fancy around them. She bit her lip, glancing over at him, "I'm sorry I'm being so weird about this. I haven't shown anyone this place in... a long time," she muttered before taking a deep breath and turning toward what seemed to be just a large rock covered in moss and vines. She lifted her hands, only slightly, and the vines and moss started to part to make room for a person to duck into the space beneath it.
"Come on, then," she muttered, stepping into her little hide out and preparing to close the entrance when he followed. If he followed?
The hideout was circular, green and cozy. There was a bed made out of different leaves and shrubbery, along with a desk made from tree roots twisting and bending into a beautiful shape. She had rearranged her hide out about six time in all her years at camp, but this was one of her favorites.

"Okay. Then let's go now before I change my mind," she said this a little too quickly and a little firmly, knowing that she needed to get her act together or he was really going to think she was crazy. She took a deep breath and smiled. "Shall we cover it in a cloth or something?" she asked before looking around for whatever he'd want to transport it in.
Soon, they were on their way heading toward the forest. "It's not too far in, over by the lake," she explained, gesturing ahead as she ducked through the trees in order to guide him forward.

"Now?" she smiled, reaching her hand out as if she was going to catch his at the corner of the painting, but she stopped. Her hand hovered next to his for a moment and she blinked, "erh-" she blinked again and took in a sharp breath, pulling her hand back. "I- huh- I should-" brain malfunctioning due to emotional contact. Must pull it together, she took a step back and closed her eyes for a short moment before opening them and smiling at him.
"It's really beautiful, Charlie. Do you want to see where I'm going to put it?" You can do this.
(she be a bit crazy)

"Oh, keep it?" she blushed at the idea. "I... wouldn't it seem a bit vain if I had a painting of myself hanging in my cabi-Wait!" suddenly, an idea struck her. She smiled, biting her bottom lip for a moment, "I know the perfect place! When will it be ready to move?" she was sure the paint was still wet now... granted, it could be magical paint. She hadn't shown anyone her hideout since... well since Jacob and maybe one another person. She blushed, knowing that she was getting overly excited about something that he had no idea what she was talking about. "I mean, unless you want to keep it for you... collection... or something," awe, back to the awkward stutters. Charlie Webster

She was doing perfect. Okay. Good. She gave a small nod in response but didn't open her mouth again until he said it was done. She bit her lip, stepping up off the stool and moving forward as he turned the easel around.
And then she was making eye contact with herself.
Okay, a painted version of herself but those eyes were so realistic it was insane. The way the paint blended together and the brush strokes almost dissipated into her skin... wow.
After a moment of staring at it, she finally looked up at him. Suddenly, he seemed different to her. He was kind, cute and gentle from the moment they had met but now there was another layer. He had talent, and not only that but it was as if it was given to him by the gods. Looking at that painting, she almost felt like she could see into his soul, and there was goodness there.
She smiled at him, finally. "It's beautiful, Charlie," she said her voice almost a whisper as if she was worried speaking too loud would ruin the art.

The wind was a bit of a problem when it came to the trees, that wasn't surprising at all. She sat still when he said he was almost done. After another moment she took a deep breath. "This is kind of hard, actually. Trying to sit here and be natural. If I think about it too much I feel like I'm acting more like a statue than a normal person. Do I look weird? I'm sorry if my talking is annoy-" she stopped herself, cheeks turning bright red. She really was making a fool of herself now, wasn't she? She had just been sitting there for so long she had almost forgotten how to function like a normal person. Still, at least he was almost done! She was oddly excited to see the picture, but dreading it at the same time. Charlie Webster

It was true, beauty being in the eye of the beholder. She really didn't think of herself as like a stunning beauty or anything, but she wasn't really insecure about her looks either. She was confident enough, and that was fine. As he mentioned not having any other human models, Accalias head turned toward the open window where he pointed. Her smile grew as she saw the trees and she let her shoulders hunch forward in a sigh for a moment. "That's real beauty," she muttered, half to herself and half to him.
She turned back to him, "at least in the eye of this beholder," she found herself winking at him with that comment. That was weird and uncalled for. Her eyes widened for a moment and she straightened up again. "I hope I'm not moving too much. That's probably hard to work with. Granted, plants don't sit too still either." At least, she could see their movement, their breath.

I think this is going to be amazing, he had said, and Accalia almost let her smile disappear. But no, she could tell that it was helping give him muse of sorts to put the piece together. Instead she just tried to keep thinking positive thoughts, "hey, I'm just excited to see if you're any good," she said. She held still for the most part is he painted her, but occasionally would reach up to brush hair out of her face.
After another moment, she spoke up again. "Have you painted anyone else before? I mean, do you have a lot of models you bring in here?"

"It's far away enough from camp and the trees will help keep the air cleaner. Much better than smoking out where everyone else is and stuff," she explained. She didn't really know if there was an official ruling on that. She'd have to ask in the next cabin leader meeting. In all honesty, though, she felt like they would ban cigarettes completely due to the amount of physical activity that was required, the younger kids and the general strict nature of camp in general. Still, if it was important to him it was good to have a decent place to go, right?
"If you don't like it here that's... fine, I guess." She muttered, looking back at the lake for the moment. She loved it here, actually. It was her favorite spot in camp.

Fin and Mat:
Sure! Enemies sounds good. Finley would have a lot of those so it's understandable bahaha.
Mac and Mat:
Anyone who can help her with her escapades is the bomb, so she totally supports this idea! Do you want to start a thread for them??
