The Endless Forest discussion

((This is just a huge field filled with wildflowers))

Cameron sat down on the grass with Rue. "What's your favorite flower?"

“Tiger Lillies.” She said quietly. She wrapped her arms around her knees.

He smiled, "tiger lilies. Those are really pretty." Like you, he thought.

((OOOOOOOOH))

She shivered a little. It was getting kind of cold, with the sun setting. The grass was pink in the dying light.

((XD))

"Are you cold?" He didn't have a jacket, but he had his shirt.

She nodded. She was cold, actually, not just a little chilly. She scooted closer to him.

He put his arm around her. "Better? I can give you my shirt."

Her eyes widened. “No!” She said abruptly. “It’s okay.” But she leaned into him, appreciating his warmth.

He laughed, "just want you warm." She leaned into him and he scooted closer.

They were practically pressed against each other now. Heat filled her face, but she stayed where she was.

He smiled, "the Sun looks nice."

“Yeah.” It did. The sky was a purple-pink color, and a little higher it was a dark blue-purple, the color of a bruise. Without thinking, like at all, she leaned up and kissed him.

He was surprised and jumped a little at the contact. She blushed and he leaned down and kissed her.

Her mind was telling her how crazy this was, but she stopped thinking and wound her hands through his hair, kissing him back.

He pulled her by the waist onto his lap. He was probably passing a line, I mean they just had their first kiss but he really liked her and she seemed to like him too.

She pulled away, but not far. She leaned her forehead against his and caught her breath.

He closed his eyes and grinned, "that was...wow." He blushed.

She kissed him again, stopping his words.

He laughed a little kissing her back. He wrapped a hand into her hair an one around her back.

She pushed him onto the the ground and ran her hands down his chest, forgetting about his wound.

He laughed surprised, "woah. Rue, you have a bad side." He pulled her down and kissed her hard.

She smiled against his lips, and kissed him back.

He rolled her onto her back and kissed her again.

She wrapped her legs around his waist and wrapped her arms around his back, and kissed him back.

He stopped kissing her to breathe. "You're crazy Rue." He kissed her neck.

She just smiled, the butterflies in her stomach fluttering.

He put his head against hers. He didn't know what to say. She wasn't saying anything. Did she not like it?

“What are you thinking?” She whispered.

He looked into her eyes, "I'm thinking maybe you didn't like it." He said quietly.

“Of course I do, silly,” she whispered back, and pressed her lips against his again.

He kissed her, "wasn't so sure." He mumbled. She pulled him close and he grinned.

She sat up quickly, remembering herself. “More?” She asked him.

"More what?" He asked sitting up quickly.

She smiled sideways at him, asking with her eyes.

He titled his head totally discombobulated. "What?" He asked smiling a little.

She kissed him softly. “More?” She asked.

He nodded making his hair fall into his eyes. He leaned in and kissed her again slower than before and gently pulled her closer.

She kissed him back, but this time it was slow and careful instead of rushed and heated. More her pace.

"Is this better?" He asked quietly.

She nodded, but she could go either way. She fell onto her side and pulled him down with her.

He fell beside her and hugged her, she felt cold so he squeezed her as if that would make the cold go away.

She smiled into his chest and yawned. “Tired,” She said.

"Then sleep. I'll protect you." He kissed her head and closed his eyes.

“Okay,” she sighed. She closed her eyes and curled up.

He fell asleep with Rue in his arms. "Goodnight." He whispered.

Rue woke up to warm sun on her back. She stretched her arms and knocked into someone beside her. She scrambled away, to the edge of the forest, frightened, eyes wide.

Cameron woke up when something hit him. He got up when her heard running. "Rue? Is that you?" He looked around panicked but then saw her behind a tree. "Rue? Are you ok?"

She peeked out and saw the boy from last night. Cameron. She remembered and stepped out. “Sorry,” she smiled shyly.

He smiled, "good morning. What happened?"
