She hadn't seen her new baby brothers yet and as the big sister she thought this was a major oversight. "Camping?" she raised an eyebrow. "That sounds fun." She told her mildly.
"Oh yes it is you should try it sometime." Kayla looked at Paris in all her nice clothes and fine jewelry and chuckled. "Then again maybe not."

Kayla raised an eyebrow at Cela, honestly did the girl know something that she did not. She had no control over Nicholai, he did as he pleased and it was usually she that did everything he said and wanted. "Well all I can do is try I suppose" she said watching the girl devour some candy and her hand twitched as though to reach out and take the bag off of her.
"Yes I think you should totally come camping" Kayla agreed, she was beginning to regret agreeing to the whole thing in the first place.

And that was great, too. I'm glad it happened. You don't look at me like you wish I would disappear or like maybe I'm scum or something anymore. I'm glad we're friends now, Kayla. It feels good." Plymouth grinned and gave her a random hug. He squeezed her good and tight and even nuzzled her hair a little.
And then.... Plymouth had to do something. He knew the train would be at the station soon and his CellBell time would diminish. "Scuse me, Kayla. I'll go get you something to drink in a second, okay?" Meanwhile, he slid into the compartment floor with Cela. He folded his legs so that he was on one knee and watched her munch on jelly slugs for a minute. "CellBell?" Plymouth totally tuned everyone else out. He didn't care if they were around cause he had something IMPORTANT to say. To do.
"I... just wanted to tell you that I'll miss you this summer. And I hope you know that you can owl me every day. Twice a day. All day, if you want. Or you need to. For anything." Plymouth scooted in close to her. He wasn't even sure if she was listening - sometimes she was candy-centered, right? Plymouth got all nervous and antsy and tugged on his hair for a moment. Then, quick as lightning, he reached out to take her face between his palms and he kissed Celadine Toussaint. It was only the second time HE had ever kissed HER. Ever. Plymouth didn't linger, but he kissed her good. A good and proper goodbye kiss.
"Please don't tell me I taste like jellyslug, okay?" Plymouth laughed and scooted away from her. "HEHE!" He was going to totally pretend that that had been private. Plymouth crawled back up into his seat and sat dazed for a minute or two.
"Well - I -" she couldn't honestly say that it had been great. Their little accident had been just that an accident. "Yeah I am glad we're friends too Plymouth" she agreed truthfully.
Kayla watched as he knelt down on the floor next to Cela and her eyebrows shot up at his little speech to her. Ah so it looked as though she had totally underestimated Mr Morgan big time. She leaned back in her seat and watched them for a moment, so long as he didn't hurt her and that he always made Cela happy then she was happy too. But there had been a moment there when...
She shook her head,
don't even go there Winters she scolded herself silently.

Kayla caught Tobi's look and shook her head and then looked away. If he said anything she would hurt him.

He opened his mouth to answer Cela's question, and then Plymouth did the worst thing ever. He got down on his knees and... well, public displays of affection were bad enough, but in this situation, Cope just felt lightheaded and ill.
"I'm not invited," he gave Winters a look before shoving to his feet. "I believe I will go find the trolley for a bit of a snack. Erm..." Without another word, he rushed for the door and out into the corridor. Air. Where had all the air gone?
"I didn't say you weren't invited Kettleburn, I merely suggested that since you didn't like the idea of camping that MAYBE you shouldn't come." Kayla was just about to get up and leave the compartment but Copernicus beat her to it and she was definitely not leaving at the same time he was. She would give him a five minute head start and then she would go to the Prefect's compartment.
