Fandom High Welcome Picnic, Front Lawn of the School, All Day: Part II

[bigdamnprincipal]

In order to give people a place to get away from the traffic jam of the buffet and information tables, most of the chairs and tables for guests were set up further out on the lawn, under a tall blue and gold tent. There was plenty of room for everyone to sit down and enjoy themselves, but it might not have all been dry. Did we mention being grateful that it was just water falling from the sky?

[OCD is up! This is the FIRST post for general mingling. Please use this post first, if your browser can handle the comment load. Roommates, fake siblings and teachers are all here and there's more room for mingling here. Since it's outside, the picnic is open to all students, teachers, and townies!]

"I'll help you move," he assured her, leaning his cheek on top of her head.

"And then leave me there to sleep alone, right?" She was still frowning. She didn't like it when he was all quiet and she felt like it was her fault and she didn't know exactly which of the stupid things she said was what did it.

He frowned and dropped the rest of the cookies back on the table. "Do you want me to leave you alone?"

"No." She sat up, getting back in his face. "God, I want you to be excited again. I could tell you were before! I'm going to have a single," she reminded him. "Do you realize what that means? No one will interrupt us. Ever." Though she might miss sneaking into his room in the middle of hte night when Bod was gone.

She could still do the sneaking thing. Nothing could stop them from still sneaking around.

"I am," he assured her, relaxing as she finally said that and he smiled a little. "Do you think there will be two beds we can shove together?"

Re: General Mingling [SS2 2011]

"If not, we can totally steal my bed, yeah?" Caroline suggested. "I mean, it's not like I couldn't just carry it down with my stuff... I really miss that big bed."

"Me too," he smiled as he stroked her cheek. "Though the cabin setup was kind of cool too."

Was it pathetic that he'd missed her the past week?

Re: General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[puppywithatutu.livejournal.com]

He was only pathetic in that he'd spent a whole lot of time with her just two days earlier, but maybe he didn't want to remember that.

"I did an excellent job with the cabin," she agreed, scratching behind his ear a little. "I was almost sorry to lose it, other than the strange kid I was living with. And the horrible bathroom situation. And lack of useful mirrors."

Re: General Mingling [SS2 2011]

Oh, he remembered. It just was different.

He hummed happily at the ear scratching, eyes drifting shut and if Bobby had been there, he would have stuck out his tongue. "You managed pretty well."

Re: General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[puppywithatutu.livejournal.com]

"Yes I did," she said smugly, pleased that she'd made the cabins not awful for him. Yes, she took full credit for that and for his little bit of humming, so there.

Re: General Mingling [SS2 2011]

"And you're very pleased with yourself," he murmured, leaning forward to rest his forehead on her shoulder.

Re: General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[puppywithatutu.livejournal.com]

"Why shouldn't I be? It made you happy and I did it, so there." Even if he'd helped, the idea had been hers and she totally owned it.

Re: General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[need-no-moon.livejournal.com]

"You make me happy," he agreed and there was a good chance he wasn't going to move unless she made him.

Re: General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[puppywithatutu.livejournal.com]

Well, if he was going to be all sweet and make her blush, she'd just have to scratch that sweet spot and smile down at him. "I try my best. It's a rough job, but highly rewarding with incredible benefits."

Re: General Mingling [SS2 2011]

He laughed softly, his hand rubbing the small of her back and she pretty much couldn't do anything wrong if she kept touching him like that. "I think you might end up employee of the year," he joked.

Re: General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[puppywithatutu.livejournal.com]

"It's barely halfway through the year," she teased, thinking it was really only like, a couple months. "You might want to hold out on the promises."

Re: General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[need-no-moon.livejournal.com]

"Nah," he murmured, turning his head so he could bury his face against her neck. "I'm pretty confident."

Re: General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[puppywithatutu.livejournal.com]

She was just a little disappointed he wasn't kissing her neck, but eh, even Caroline knew necking in public wasn't very polite. "See, you say that and it makes me wonder how many ways I could mess it up," she teased. Did he know how talented she was at screwing up these things?

Re: General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[need-no-moon.livejournal.com]

"That wasn't a challenge, Caroline," he laughed and shook his head. "We'd figure it out."

Re: General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[puppywithatutu.livejournal.com]

She giggled, tugging herself a little closer and recrossing her legs comfortably. "Good. I prefer not screwing up."

Re: General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[need-no-moon.livejournal.com]

Mmmmmm, he could feel that. It was kind of evil and they were still in public.

Oh god, they were that kind of couple, weren't they? Fuck, but he didn't care. People could just deal. "You'll be fine."

Re: General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[puppywithatutu.livejournal.com]

They were totally that couple. It came naturally to Caroline so Jake would just have to deal with her being touchy-feely in public.

"Hmm, does that mean we're having a sleepover tonight?" she checked.

Re: General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[need-no-moon.livejournal.com]

He laughed and drew back to meet her eyes, grinning. "I think we might have to. Someone needs to make sure the room is bug free and all."

Sure sure. That was it.

Re: General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[puppywithatutu.livejournal.com]

"Oh God, make me paranoid already why don't you," she laughed, flicking lightly at his ear.

Re: General Mingling [SS2 2011]

"See? I should totally stay over and make sure your first night goes smoothly," he said, trying not to laugh.
