Camp Corona

The girl, whose name Jack still didn’t know acknowledged with only a simple nod. He assumed that meant he didn’t need to pay her for any cigarettes. He hoped. He opened his mouth to say something else, but Claire began to speak again. He shut his mouth and turned his head to look at her and listen to what she was saying.

She instructed the campers to get into pairs and to introduce themselves, after which they would proceed to tell their partners two truths and a lie. It seemed that whoever couldn’t figure out what the lie was, they’d be “pressured” to jump into the ocean. Jack glanced down at what he was wearing—a old white T-shirt with the words “Young & Reckless” written in graffiti-style letters on the front along with some pretty cool designs all around the letters, a dumb shirt but one he loved, along with some nondescript basketball shorts. He had no time to change into a bathing suit, and he supposed that it wouldn’t do too much damage to get his clothes wet for a little. That is, if he lost.

He tuned back to Ophelia with an cocky grin. Or maybe he’d lose on purpose so she could see him strip down. Maybe.

“You wanna be partners?” he asked her smoothly.

When Claire mentioned getting into pairs, Kalina almost felt sick to her stomach. She hated pair activities, because she wasn’t outgoing enough to seek out a partner on her own. And the others, for whatever reason, be it intimidation or simply not liking her or something else, never came to her. Well, this time it’d be different. She saw Claire had already claimed the only other person Kalina knew, Colline, her cabin mate, so she was on her own now.

Kalina took a deep breath and stepped forward, getting closer to Claire, and approached a boy she had seen earlier in the day (Ryan). He seemed to be acquainted with the boy who was flirting with Claire earlier.

“Hi there,” she called out, trying not to sound bashful. “I’m Kalina… Do you want to be partners?” She flashed him a cute smile and pushed some of her hair behind her ears, so her view of him was not obstructed.

Can I possibly help you with something?

Also, I finally posted. So. Like. Yaaa.

Camp Corona

Omg i'm so sorry I didn't post. I took a nap so I thought I'd have the energy to get something up but I got so drowsy all of a sudden. Quality over quantity though right? I'll see if I can throw something together in a lil bit.

Camp Corona

I´ll get my post up very soon.

Camp Corona

Not sure if I should post now or wait until Windy's post. Decisions, decisions, decisions. I'll wait and see if inspiration hits. Derp.

Also, Blox, I took a look at your RP. It seems pretty cool! (I was impressed with your logo!!!) But I probably couldn't join. I barely have enough time to commit to this lol. :/

Camp Corona

A love hexahedron?!

Camp Corona

That certainly must get annoying. I thought they invented something that would prevent random time-travelling-lapses.

Also, damn, it's already almost midnight. I promised myself I'd read 100 pages of this stupid novel but I guess one fourth of that will have to do. Good night all!

Camp Corona

Kalina went along on the tour, and she had to admit, the camp was really a lot nicer than she expected. Sure, she read through all the pamphlets and stuff she had received earlier in the year, but she didn’t think it’d be this… perfect. Well, nothing was perfect. But it was pretty damn good. She walked along silently, listening to the bubbly, kinda quirky, but seemingly friendly counselor named Claire while she happily explained the bits and pieces of the tour to the group of campers. She took note of one of the boys who was flirting with her earlier, and she wondered if all the boys were just as flirty.

Once they arrived at the pier, the sun painted the western sky with dazzling shades of red and orange, which faded into a majestic purple in all directions. A few clouds lazed along the horizon glowing like lamps and sending more concentrated beams of sunlight upward and outward. It was simple picturesque.

Claire the counselor asked if there were any questions. A blonde girl toward the front of the group asked a question, but before Claire could answer, the boy Tony Valentine, with whom she had spoken earlier, shouted something about who could get in the water first, ripped off his shirt and dived into waves.

“What a little shit,” Kalina muttered under her breath. It was more of a sarcastic term of endearment than an insult, though. She smiled and considered jumping in herself, since she still had her bikini on underneath all her clothes, but she decided against it. She’d probably lose her clothes—or worse, someone would steal them. Not that it’d matter, as she’d still be in her bathing suit, but she loved the outfit nonetheless and didn’t want to run the risk of losing it or getting it caked in sand.

She turned her attention back to Claire and crossed her arms curiously.

Jack stood by the back of the group. It almost caused him physical pain that there were going to be activities ‘to get to know each other better.’ He’d rather consume a bottle of arsenic. But it was too late to break off from the group now, and it wasn’t like he had anywhere else to be. So, against his better judgement, he stayed, but didn’t speak up to ask a question.

As he watched Claire and the crowd, he saw someone approaching the pier from the camp. He looked just in time to see her quickly throw a dimly glowing object out of her hand. Though she seemed to be well aware that such an attempt to hide whatever she had wasn’t very effective. With a coy smile, Jack took a few steps back and walked up to her.

“Smoking a cigarette, huh?” he asked her in a low voice. “No need to worry about throwing that out in front of Claire.” He nodded toward the giggling counselor. “She’s high as a kite right now.”

He smirked and then added, “But do you think you could hook me up a little later with a cigarette? I’ve got some spare cash if you’re not feeling generous.” He grinned at her.

This is random and late but I had a friend from Australia once. But he literally disappeared one day without a trace. Must've travelled in time. Or maybe he switched schools, I dunno. Lol

Camp Corona

As Jack stood there, waiting for the tour to begin, his eyes scanned the campers around him. Much to his surprise, there was no shortage of good-looking girls to be found. The vast majority of them appeared to be around his age as well. As more and more people showed up, Lanceton kept a close eye on Claire the counselor, just to see what she was up to. He didn’t know if she was playing games with him or what, but she was definitely a wild card.

Then something happened that he didn’t expect. Another boy came up to her. The newcomer was shorter than Jack by a couple inches and looked to be about the same age as him, if not younger. From where he was standing, he couldn’t catch a word of what they were saying. He leaned in very close to her and… Was he sniffing her? Jack raised an eyebrow as the boy continued to coquette the counselor.

I see… He thought. So I guess the boys are already crawling over Ms. Slutty Counselor. Not that it even matters. He chuckled to himself. I already got a piece of that.

But just by looking at Claire’s face for a second longer, he could already envision her response to his thoughts: Wouldn’t you want to come back for seconds?

Maybe. She was hot, yeah, but she certainly wasn’t someone he’d get obsessed, and most definitely not jealous, over. Obsession and jealousy, and other such feelings of attachment, required the energy he simply didn’t have. At any rate, there were plenty of other beautiful girls to pick from here.

Kalina was playing with her blonde hair slightly when she heard a voice not too far from her. It belonged to a boy who wasn’t talking to anyone in particular; he was just trying to orient himself among the crowd. When her eyes focused on him, her lips curved into a sly smile.

Oooh, cutie alert. This would be an excellent opportunity to step up her flirt game a bit. Kalina slinked a little closer to the new boy and smiled at him.

“Did I miss anything important? I'm Tony Valentine by the way,” he was saying.

“Oh, you didn’t miss much,” Kalina crooned to him. “The tour is just about to start, I hear. Did you just arrive? Oh, and I’m Kalina.” She held her soft hand out to him to shake. “Kalina Rigel, with a ‘G.’ Nice to meet you.” She stared up into his eyes. There was a slightly mischievous glint in her eyes.
