I shrugged, "alrightttt."

"Do you happen to have a way to get a taxi, or are we driving?" I asked, and sighed a little. Downtown wasn't exactly easy walking distance.

"Uhm. You'd have to call for taxi, and I'm not that great of a driver. . .

"You don't drive when you order a taxi. ."I muttered, confused.

"But you were talking about getting car.."

"Oh, I meant getting a taxi or walking."I said, blushing at my mistake. Oops. I dug around in my pockets until I found a phone, and then pulled it out. "Do you know taxi service numbers?"I asked.

I pulled out my iphone and searched through the contacts. "678-890-6669" I say, reading it off my phone. Then I put it back in my pocket.

I out in the number as she read it off, then hit send. I told them the address for camp and hung up. "Let's goooo!"I said, smiling

"Okay!" I reply grinning. I grabbed Keri's hand and put it in mine, walking towards Thalias tree.

I intertwined my fingers with Kasi and walked with her. Off to adventurrrrre.

I walked to the courtyard, as I thought that Suephrom would probably be in his cabin or something. Probably sulking about how b#tchy I was. He was a son of Morpheus, so... Cabin 20, right? I looked over at it. It was a huge building, and it had to be to hold so many demigods. Overcrowding at its finest.
I didn't want to admit it to myself, but I was slightly afraid of going inside. I was tired and injured and sh#t, and a group of demititan-hating half-bloods in there could probably take me down in an enclosed space. I stood next to the steps, shifting my weight from one foot to the other and glancing around, procrastinating for as long as I could.

I walked into the courtyard looking down at my knuckles. I was gently running my fingers over them to check for fractures, and I wasn't really paying attention. I needed to get to my cabin to get some ambrosia, and maybe take a nap. I looked up when I got in front of my cabin, and loked right into Madeline's eyes. I instantly started shaking, and was absolutely speechless.

Subject: Re: The Cabin's Courtyard 8/6/2012, 1:20 am

I... oh, f#ck. I hadn't expected Suephrom to nearly walk straight into me. I froze completely, heart pounding in my ears, and scrambled for the right words to use. If I messed this sh#t up, I was going to punch myself in the face until my nose broke or something.
"I... I'm... sorry..." I said with a slight stutter, and looked down. Gods DAMMIT, why did I choose now of all times to f#cking STUTTER? At least I hadn't said something completely idiotic, like 'I thought about you in the shower'. Gods.

Subject: Re: The Cabin's Courtyard 8/6/2012, 1:26 am

I opened my mouth and closed it. She said she was sorry. Sorry for what? It was my fault. But the words weren't working. My brain wasn't working. I thought about sinply running away, because seeing Madeline like this made my chest hurt and my breathing get ridiculously shallow. She just. .she looked so sad. I opened my mouth again, closed it, swallowed, and then opened it again to say. "I'm sorry, too." It was barely a mutter, and how was it possible for me to sum up everything I was feeling in three words? I started walking towards her.

Subject: Re: The Cabin's Courtyard 8/6/2012, 1:39 am

"You didn't f#cking do anything," I replied, sounding a lot more irritable than I intended. "I mean... er... I thought about it in the show- I mean..."
Dammit.
"I mean... I was being a real b#tch, and I'm always a b#tch to you, and... er, sorry." Well, I was that way to everyone, but I felt bad when I completely abused Suephrom, for some reason. It was probably because I had that stupid crush on him.

Subject: Re: The Cabin's Courtyard 8/6/2012, 1:48 am

"I wasn't being any nicer."I muttered, now standing right in front of her. Would it hurt her shoulder if I picked her uo off the ground in a hug, or just hold her in my arms. Wait, I missed something she said. I needed to stop daydreaming. She said something about a shower, I think. I'd had one of those. "The shower must have been hard."I muttered distractesly. Wait, being unemotional. Stop that. I loked back into Madeline's eyes. Okay, time to say it. Just say it. "Madeline, I really like you, and. .well. . Will you be my girlfriend?"I asked. Going from hiding from her to directly confronting her had tumbled my brain around, and I realized wlthat I'd said that out loud without thinking it out first. That was problematic. Hopefully it sounded okay. How was my hair? Why was I worrying?

Subject: Re: The Cabin's Courtyard 8/6/2012, 2:02 am

"Yeah... wait, I, um, yeah, the shower was hard... and..." Agh, why did he have to drop that bomb right now? As if I wasn't feeling conflicted enough already. After the initial confused jumble of words, my first reaction was to smack him, but I only raised my hand slightly before I stopped it. Wasn't I trying not to be a b#tch? Hitting him probably counted as being a b#tch.
I couldn't figure out how to answer the girlfriend question. I mean, yeah, I liked Suephrom more than I wanted to admit, but I tended to not do well with commitment, for some reason...
"... and..."

Subject: Re: The Cabin's Courtyard 8/6/2012, 2:08 am

I frowned. She had started to raise her hand, and I had no idea why. Smack me for asking her out? Wasn't kissing sign enough that she oiked me, or was that just not important nowadays? I kind of assumed the latter already, but for some reason I had imagined it meaning something to Madeline. Fat chance, apparently. It was kind of mean, but I just stood there and waited for her to say whatever she was trying to say.

Subject: Re: The Cabin's Courtyard 8/6/2012, 2:27 am

Why was it so hard to figure this out? If I liked Suephrom, shouldn't the obvious answer be yes? Maybe I was afraid that I was just going to hurt him more. I did have a rather... abrasive nature... oh, f#ck it. No, I did not mean that literally. Shut up.
I put my hand down, and actually smiled a bit when I answered, "Sure."
Suephrom's frown worried me, though. Ffff...

Subject: Re: The Cabin's Courtyard 8/6/2012, 2:32 am

I smiled a little back, and said, "You're forgiven if I'm forgiven, "softly. I closed the remaining gap between us and wrapped my arms around her waist, carefully avoiding her injured arm. Please, please, please let that be the end of this. Now that I was here, with her, I knew I wanted it to stay that way. Us, together. Hopefully, not fighting.

Subject: Re: The Cabin's Courtyard 8/6/2012, 2:47 am

"You didn't do anything... but alright." I felt sort of strange, and hugged back with one arm. I still wasn't exactly accustomed to hugs, but it was weird in a pleasant way. I decided that I liked hugs. Or maybe just Suephrom hugs. Whatever.

Subject: Re: The Cabin's Courtyard 8/6/2012, 2:50 am

I backed away a bit,but kept my arms around her loosely. I looked into Madeline's eyes and smiled at her. Then I leaned forward and kissed her.

OOC: Short post is short shut up

Subject: Re: The Cabin's Courtyard 8/6/2012, 4:24 pm

I kissed my boyfriend back. Gods, what had I gotten myself into now? I'd never actually had a 'boyfriend' before, since I tended to either scare away or beat up everyone, so I was actually sort of nervous about this whole situation.

Subject: Re: The Cabin's Courtyard 8/6/2012, 4:30 pm

I pulled back a bit, and realized that I had a girlfriend. Madeline was my girlfriend. I smiled at the thought. Hopefully she would stick around, now. Maybe she'd even care.

Subject: Re: The Cabin's Courtyard 8/6/2012, 4:38 pm

Damn, my arm was hurting... a lot... "Do you have any ambrosia left?" I asked, somewhat awkwardly. I didn't want to seem like I was just changing the subject randomly. Gods, what was wrong with me? Being nervous and awkward and sh#t... was this what being in a relationship was like? Ugh.
