Sitting In A Tree (open)

Guest

It's been another boring day at camp, I took out my eyeliner, and applied another coat. The circles of it around my eyes sometimes scare people off, but I can't help that I like the darkness. I climbed a tree and sat on the lowest branch that could hold me up. "Gee, today was sure exciting." I said sarcastically.

"Hey." I called up into the tree.

Guest

I peeked down and saw a boy, about my age. He looked like me, dressed in black, but I knew he wasn't a Son Of Demeter. "Hey," I called down. "I'm Lily, Daughter of Demeter."

"Jared. Nice to meet you." I said before climbing up the tree using only my arm strength.

Guest

"Back at ya." I replied. The corner of my mouth twitched a bit forming a semi-smile.

I sat on the branch a bit lower than hers. "What's so funny?"

Guest

"Nothings funny. Just thought I'd show a smile." I said flatly.

"Alrighty then crabby pants." I snorted flashing her a crooked smile. I hated smiling so much.

Guest

"Sorry for being happy someone is willing to talk to me for once..." I snapped. Does this kid have a problem with me or something? I've never done anything that could hurt or offend him. I just met him.

"Your very defensive." I said quietly.

Guest

"I've always been that way." I sighed.

"That's not going to get you very far in life." I looked at her. "In fact in time it could get you killed." I was thinking of my mother who was now being tortured in the Fields of Punishment.

Guest

"It may not get me far in life, but it's who I am." I noticed a sad look on Jared's face. "Everything okay?"

"Yeah just peachy." I muttered.

Guest

"Okay, then. You sure about that?" I questioned, knowing something was wrong.

"Eternal damnation." I said.

Guest

"Sounds... cheerful. If you ever need anyone to talk to I'm here." I sympathized.

"I don't anyone's pity," I snapped.

Guest

"It's not pity, it's sympathy." I said in a small voice.

"I don't need that either." I said with amusement dancing through my voice. I crack myself up.

Guest

"Do you have a problem with me, or are you just this rude to everyone?" I retorted.

Subject: Re: Sitting In A Tree (open) Sat Jul 31, 2010 2:06 am

"A little bit of both I think." I laughed. "I like you though."

Guest

"Thanks... I think. I guess your company isn't so bad either." I responded with a small smile.

"What's that supposed to mean?" A playful smile dancing on my lips.

Guest

"I mean that we should hang out more often, you know?" I replied awkwardly. I wasn't much of a people person, but this might have been my only chance to become friends with someone who doesn't completely annoy me.
