New Year's Fireworks

"You're right." Aaron says, standing up. Stretching a bit, he starts to walk. "Alright then, lets get going, an hope we're not caught by your little brother in the cabin." He jokes around. The Triton kids would probably mess with them too, so it's better to leave now anyway.

I walk beside him, just enjoying the moment. "I had fun tonight." I tell him when we get closer to the cabin. "Really. I haven't done anything like that in years," I add, and for a moment I consider opening up about everything, but I quickly dismiss the idea. I'm not ready for that, not even with Aaron.

"I had fun too." He says as they reach the cabin. Everyone inside was probably asleep now. So they best to not wake them. "Esto, I…" he begins, about to just flat out and confess how he felt. But he wasn't even sure how, or what he felt. And how did she feel? She kissed him, but maybe she was just caught up in the moment. These thoughts crossed his mind as they met the cabin. Maybe he was just over thinking everything.

I smile. "I think I might take a break tomorrow. If you can, meet me by the cabin at ten." I turn the knob behind me and stand don the partially open doorway. "Goodnight, Aaron." I say, before slipping into the lighted cabin.

Cole looked as the fireworks started. "Wow," is all he could say, as he looked at all of the fireworks. Each one was specifically different, just like the kids at Camp Half-Blood. He turned to look at Jules when had the same awe-struck expression.

I watched as the fireworks burst. This was the first time I'd seem them. I reached out, as if to touch them. "I was offered a position in volunteering." I said "I didn't want to, I wanted watch." I looked to Cole, who was looking at me. I raised my eyebrows and looked back at the Fire works. I took out the fox I had made earlier. It ran around the sand and zoomed to the forest. I watched it go, sadly. "What's your favorite color?" I asked.

As we neared the beach, I pulled myself closer to Luna as if to hide from the other demigods. We stopped and I moved myself even closer until I heard her mutter something. "Huh?"

I followed Luna obediently, blushing more and more each time we received irritated glares by our feloiw campers. When she pointed at the empty spot, I nodded wordlessly and followed her. We had just sat down when the fireworks started. And it truly was a fascinating event. Colours errupted in the dark sky, showering us intheir unwordly light. I barely registered Luna talking, I was too stunned to even bother replying.

Even though I had seen the scene with the bowl I couldn't find myself to care as I stuffed a handf in my mouth and nodded."'Anks"I managed to say when I swallowed, my eyes still glued to the brightly light sky

I turned to look at her with a gasp."What?! No more fireworks?"I whined and pouted childishly

I giggled as she acxidentaly ateher hair and grinned."Watch nore fireworks!"I demanded and clapped

"You have a phone?!"I gasped and stared at her stunned and wide-eyed

"Oh,right"I murmured and blushed embarassed."Well, thanks. I.... Some other time"I declined quickly and looked down nervously. Was she mad at me? Of course she was, I had practically yelled she was breaking the rules! I sighed and bit my bottom lip nervously

I looked up at her and smiled shyly."Paintball?"

"No, stupid. I'mtelling you I own paintball equipment and we have a forest here" I giggled and grinned
