And then his second statement was just...."Well, you don't know better," she giggled then proceeded to say. "Besides, I have a boyfriend, though if I didn't..." She was NOT about to say anything else. The words coming out of her mouth at that very moment were not making any sense. Her? Feelings for Corvus? Nahhhhh!
She walked over, sat on her knees and reached to where the snacks were sitting on the blanket. "I have the blanket because I don't want grass stains on my clothes, you don't need them either," she began as she held up a bowl of his favorite. "And you think that I would really forget you like that?" Well, maybe if it were anyone else she would but this was her best friend. She winked and gave him a smile, reaching for her own snack of choice, white chocolate and strawberries, which of course, was her favorite cousin's snack as well.
Well he wouldn't know any better? He had been on a date before. He knew things. He looked at her for a moment as he raised an eye brow at her. He wasnt sure what to say to that so he just turned to look at the stars instead. What could he say? Maybe...Just MAYBE he might of had a
small crush on her when he was younger. BUT Ara never felt that way. And she still didn't because she was always bossing him around. She was always telling him about how he was like her brother. That was pretty easy to understand.
He looked back at her as she explained the reason for the blanket. It made sense. She was probably right anyway. Not that he ever worried about that. He moved to kick his shoes and folding his socks into his shoes, wiggling his feet in the grass. He moved onto the blanket with her as he waited for his snack. JELLY BEANS!!! And it was POPCORN style.
No she would never forget it because she would never hear the end of it. "Thanks." He gave her a smile as he grabbed a handle full of them from the bowl. He looked around for a few moments before laying down against the blanket. He put his jelly beans against his chest, popping one into his mouth as he did. So delicious. He stared up at the stars as he pointed out the little dipper." Look. There." He pointed still." The little dipper. And then the Big dipper." He grinned a little as he looked over at her to make sure she was paying attention.
