He was a little disturbed that Kayla owned one at all. Let alone a crossbow, too.
"Oh, leave CellBell alone. She is my sweets, so I give her all my sweets. And sometimes we share. She's fine." Plus, Plymouth was sure that she wasn't getting much more candy for the rest of the summer. It broke his heart.
Plymouth raised his head from her shoulder and gave her a long, thoughtful look. "I wouldn't have made you share. That wouldn't have been fair to anyone." Plymouth continued watching Kayla, trying to figure her out. There was something more to her, something that Plymouth was only just starting to see.
Plymouth only tore his gaze from Kayla when Barry came in. As long as there wasn't room for him by Cela.... Plymouth did not like the way Barry looked at Cela.
Barry looked confused at Plymouth, sure the boy had always been weird but this was different, it wasn`t the usual happiness the boy brought "Is something wrong?" he asked the boy

He hated that everyone insisted on treating Cela like the baby in the room, and he recognized that he was even doing it at that moment by presuming to speak for her. He winced at the realization. "Sorry. Forget I said anything. So... camping?" Unlikely.
"Hey, Barry," Cope waved at the boy. "Sorry we're so full up in here. You might be able to squeeze in down there on the end."
Cope glanced at his step-brother through the hair that had fallen across his face. "Don't you think we should check with my father and your mother before we commit to too much, Plymouth? I'm not certain how long we'll be gone, and I'd hate to disappoint Winters by not following through on this... camping." Barbaric, dirty, full of bugs...
Barry nodded to Copernicus "I`ll find a place to sit" he said and then he raised his eyebrows "Camping?"h

She scooted off her seat and onto the floor , her foot still in Copernicus grip. She drew his satchel onto her lap and wiggled her ankle, indicating that he could let go now.
"If anyone can make Nicholai not freak out it would be you." Celandine nodded
filling her mouth with candy and immediately busying herself rummaging through Cope's bag.
Cela swallowed her mouthful and grinned up at Barry from her new spot on the floor. "You can sit there." she pointed to the position by the window she had just vacated, next to Paris.
Celandine tossed a piece of candy at Plymouth and poked her tongue out at him, her eyes twinkling.
SCORE! A half empty bag of jelly slugs in the bottom of Cope's satchel. Cela held it up like a prize and made a point of taking only one of the jellies, passing the remainder up to Copernicus and settling herself back against the wall under the window.
"Could I come camping?" She asked Copernicus, popping the jelly slug in her mouth and sucking on it happily.
"It isn't just the candy, Plym." Celandine piped up, shooting him a bright smile.
Cela stared at Tobi when he coughed and looked up at Aggie. Oh she knew who she was, even if she'd never properly been introduced. She jabbed Tobi in the knee, indicating that an introduction would be timely.
Barry smilled as Cela ate candy, she better enjoy it before going back home. From what he knew Nico wouldn`t let her eat for ages. Oh wait a sec he still had a chocolate frog! He held it out to her "Want it?" before taking a seat and listning to what this was about camping

Celandine turned her head and stared at Kayla's outstretched hand for a moment before looking up at her face. "I... okay." Cela stood up and took Kayla's hand, the deathgrip at complete odds with her bubbly exterior.
"I'll be back though okay?" Celandine told Tobi. She looked at Paris and Barry and Anna on the other seat, "I'm going to send you all invitations to my birthday party, I'd really like it if you all came okay? Paris? Anna?" She offered Barry a timid smile, "...Barry?" She did want to make things right with Barry, she totally missed him being her friend.
Celandine nudged Plymouth with her knee as she walked past him, a mischevious grin on her face. She offered him an air nuzzle before shooting Kayla an-okay-where-are-we-going look.
Barry nodded "Sure I`ll come, why wouldn`t I?" he said and he gave Cela a little wave before looking out the window. You have to get over her very very soon Barry. Understand that.
