Camping.
Best thing to do in a vocation or school trip, you'll refresh your mind by the calm and beautiful weather and scenery, and it's also a good occasion to learn collective work.
Through this view right now, we could see many children doing different tasks that their teachers told them to.
Everybody except these two.
"For adventure!" Anya shouted hands up due to excitement.
"If the teachers ever discovered what we're doing now we'll be exhausted." Damien said trying to look calm but actually worried about what could happen next.
They were now wolking around the forest in order to explore it.
"No need to worry!" Anya said with her dizzy smile and usual confident tone. "We'll told them we got lost while looking for wood."
"You're really…" that's ridiculous, why am I even following her? I shouldn't. It's not to late I can go back right now but---
Damian looked at Anya face, it was full of joy and excitement just like a normal child will be while trying something new.
Just looking at her like that made his heart race and his face turning all red.
How can he not?
"C'mon Sy-on boy, no need to worry! We'll be fine and careful." Ok finishing her sentence with that sarcastic smile of her made him think again if his decision was right or not.
But, his thoughts were all cut off by the cold water falling on his hand.
"It's raining." He mumbled. So, no need to stay here anymore or else we will get sick.
Suddenly, a great sound heard all along the forest, it was thunder.
Damian flinched due to that sound, then looked around trying to catch Anya's figure, but none.
"Anya!" The boy shouted in fear.
Where did she go? She was right here just a moment ago. She wouldn't get any far just in some seconds.
Sobbing. Damian ear catched a sob sound coming behind the tree infront of him.
He quickly went checking for the foolish girl as he think.
Her small figure was shaking and her hands covered her ears in fear.
"Anya." He protested. Is she ok? She is definitely scared of the thunder. Weak as always. Now what should I do? We must go back to the camping site quickly or else we will get sick. how can I comfort her?
Anya raised her head, her watering eyes met with his. He sight in despair, her tears were and still his weakness since he met her.
"Here, hold my hand." He said as he lend her help.
Anya only looked at him for a while then accepted his propose, but at same time, another tour of thunder hit the place.
Anya held Damian hand strongly due to fear. In the other side, Damian was scared too and Anya did notice it because of his trembled body but he acted bravely even so.
"L..let's go! We should find a place to cover ourselves from the rain."
Anya nodded in agreement then Damian leads her to an covered place he noticed while walking.
Sitting on the corner, Anya's body still shaking from fear of thunder and the cold weather. Damian found himself panicked, he didn't know what he's supposed to do in situation like this, he never comforted someone and neither someone comforted him -except his brother sometimes and their loyal servent-.
Comforting words? Like it's ok or it will be fin-. Why do I even c..care? W..why am I worried about her anyway? But-
The trough of Anya's crying face come across his mind, he felt a weird feeling grew bigger inside him.
Suddenly an idea came straight to his head. M..maybe it's better… better than nothing..
Damian looked at Anya's hand then grabbed it. He could felt warmth in his cheeks due to his action, nervousity was clear in his face expression too.
Anya looked at his face in surprise but he quickly looked away trying not to make any eye contact with her. The pink haired girl felt warmth scrolling through her body, she wasn't shaking anymore and it seemed like she's feeling more safe.
A Damian's thought came across Anya's head.
I think I'm feeling better now, not scared anymore. I hope she feels the same.
