Chapter Two: Kami
My eyes refused to shut themselves. When they would, it only produced images of her. Images one should only see or think about in their alone time. I thought for nearly an hour of things that would tire me out. Nothing came. My body was exhuasted, but my mind kept running wildly. Kamaria, Kamaria, Kamaria... it was practically screaming at me!
Finally, I left my cabin. It was after two by now and was certainly against camp regulations. I couldn't care less. I walked around the camp for nearly an hour. Night was my favourite time. I adored it. There was enough light to show you where you were and that was it. That's how I like it. The moonlight shone on the lake in the silence of the night. Ah, the lake. It's shining beauty had returned and only further reminded me of my love. How beautifully she would shine under the glow of the moon. The silver hues of her light hair making her look even more heavenly. My heart swelled, my head swam. I needed her so badly, my mouth opened and I began to whisper to the night sky,
"Kamaria, I-"
"Why are you up so early?"
With shock in my own almond shaped eyes, I spun around only to meet the wide eyes of my only love. Dressed in nothing but a flimsy white nightgown, she shone under the moonlight, just as I thought she would. Her mouth forming that beautiful smile. My mind answered her question, I was always up this early. Even if it was only to watch my little angel taking her morning stroll. However, all that came out was:
"K-..Kamaria..um, I.. don't know." A nervous frown came over my face. Stupid, stupid, stupid! Quick, say something she'd like, my mind screamed. "It's.. just a nice night.." A burst of giggles came from my dear. Oh, how adorable and yet amazingly arousing she was at the exact time. How would one manage such a thing? Her little giggles were those of an eight year old... Yet to see her in her nearly transparent nightgown could not stop my eyes from wandering, despite my attempts.
"You can call me Kami..and you know it is nearly four o'clock right?" Kami! I could call her Kami! Though I could never tell before, because of my distance her eyes showed slight signs of tiredness, yet humor at the same time. Oh, angel, how many different things a creature of your sorts can be! "Shouldn't you be in bed?" Voice filled with such concern, my heart thumped wildly in my chest. My love was only inches away, my body screamed to just grab her, run and make her mine. But my mind told me no.
"I couldn't sleep." I mumbled stupidly. Come, brain, can you not think of smarter or at least interesting things to say? "Why are you awake so early?" Good, make conversation. Make her speak to you. Hear that voice again, even if you knew exactly why she was awake; to test the lake water like always.
"I couldn't sleep either." Obviously her brain was still quite tired and could not think of intelligent things at the moment either. Her delicate shoulders raised and fell as she rose her small hand to wipe her tired eyes. "Well, I'll leave you." Her beautiful voice mumbled tiredly.
"No!" Shit, cover yourself. Don't scare her. "I mean-.. you don't have to. It's a big sky, one doesn't have to hog it all." Good, that sort of sounded nice. Even better, she was smiling again. She turned herself to the lake but did not step towards it. Perhaps she felt odd feeling the water when she knew others were watching. I continued to try and act casual about us both happening to meet here. "You know, the water's nice." Of course, I didn't really know, but I did not wish to interrupt her normal daily activities. I looked over at the angel, her eyes were beautifully wide, staring at the water. As if the water was tempting her as much as she did me.
"Really?" Her voice sounded so excited by the news that she moved forward, her bare feet only inches from the water. My only answer to that was a nod, which apparently she didn't even need to see because just before I could nod, she rushed into the water. She went in untill it was up to her ankles. Once in, her entire little body shook, causing me to frown. The water was still cold. Far to cold for such a delicate angel. Yet she still stood in the water, arms crossed to retain warmth. Her arms and legs were covered in goosebumps.
"Perhaps it got colder..?" I said, feeling more than a little guilty for sending the little blonde into the cold. She finally moved out of the water, her body still covered with bumps, only causing me to frown more before a brilliant idea hit me. Coat! I was wearing a coat! Thank God, I thought as I whipped it off and held it out to her without a word. Damn shyness. At least she took it. When she moved her arms away, I noted, even her bare self beneath the nightgown showed her temperature was low. The raised mounds of her breasts even crying for warmth. Stop it, I scolded myself, be a gentlemen. Even though my body told me to ravish her wildly right then and there as the moonlight shone down-.. Stop it.
Her high-pitched voice squeaked out once more in the quiet night a humble thank you as she pulled on the sleeves of the coat. Oh, reader, if only you could see how petite my sweet angel looked in my long coat. In trenchcoat style which reached calf-length on me, reached the ground for her. Her lovely hands were devoured by the length of the sleeves. A giggle once more came. Obviously, she found herself rather ridiculous looking in such a lengthy coat. While all I could think about is the scent of her that would carry on even after it was returned.
What seemed like hours later, she pushed strands of her glorious hair behind her un-pierced ear and she finally spoke once again, "I should return to bed. They may wake up and wonder where I went." My love stated with such a smile that I could do nothing more than give in to her request. She moved to return my coat to me once again, but my head shook and I shot out my hand to stop her small arms. This was the first time I have come into contact with my angel. Her beautiful wide eyes looked up at me in question.
"Keep it." I said and sent her back to her cabin like a father sending their child back to sleep. Now, for anyone who knows me even the slightest knows that I go nowhere without my coat. It was a very expensive, all leather black trenchcoat. A gift for my most recent, seventeenth birthday. It even carried the new leather scent on it still. Yet the moment she put it on was practically the moment she could have claimed it as hers, never returned it and I'd still be happy that she was even thinking of being near something of mine.
Once she was safely in her cabin, I returned back to mine and the moment I laid down, fell straight into sleep. How did one so small, so innocent and so unknowing to everything of this world manage to completely rearrange mine? Dreams of her continued to haunt me and tempt my hand to see if it could stay above waist level. Needless to say, it was a rather uncomfortable morning and I had to wait nearly twenty minutes before I could use the bathroom. But it was certainly worth it.
