Campgrounds, Saturday evening

Oct 13, 2007 20:55

Wyatt had come out to the campgrounds while it was still light out to set things up. Now as night fell he had a nice fire going to ward off the chill of the fall night air, and a blanket stretched out on the ground beside it, along with a picnic basket of food -- including marshmallows, of course.

Per Wyatt's call, Isabel made her way out the campground, smiling when she smelled woodsmoke.

"Tell me you have marshmallows and I'll be one happy girl."

"Of course I do," Wyatt said, standing up from where he'd been tending the fire. "You can't have a campfire without marshmallows."

"You really are the perfect guy," she laughed. "It's not too late. Want to head to Vegas?"

"I heard they have drive-thru chapels there now," Wyatt said, grinning. "I wonder if they do orb-thru."

"That might raise a few eyebrows. But then again, it's Vegas, I'm sure they've seen everything at some point." Walking over, Isabel reached for Wyatt's hand. "This is perfect. I've missed campfires. It's the one bad thing about moving back to the dorms."

"I figured we had time to slip one in before it gets too cold," Wyatt agreed, taking her hand and leading her over to the blanket.

"What's wrong with cold?" she asked, letting herself be led. "It just means you have to bring another blanket. And maybe snuggle a bit to keep warm."

"Point," Wyatt said. "But since I was raised in California, I'd need a lot of snuggling to keep warm. Not that that's a bad thing."

"No, it's not," Isabel grinned as she took a seat on the blanket. "It could be entertaining even. Although it might distract from why we'd be out there in the first place."

Wyatt chuckled. "Unless we were doing something important, like some kind of stake out, then it would be bad. And good, too." He reached for the picnic basket and pulled it in front of them as he settled down beside Isabel. Inside, beside the marshmallows, was takeout from Ching Tai.

"No stakeouts. This would be more fun," she promised. "There are three different meteor showers before the year. We're going to have to see at least one of them."

The take-out boxes were pretty unmistakable. "Oh awesome. You thought of everything."

Wyatt smiled sheepishly. "I would've brought something that wasn't take-out, but I didn't inherit my mom's ability to cook," he said, pulling out a bottle of sparkling apple cider and two wine glasses.

"This is fine. I'll cook next week," Isabel said as she opened some of the containers. "I promised you lasagna didn't I? And that is non-alcoholic right?"

"Sparkling cider," Wyatt said, pouring some into the glasses and handing one to Isabel. "No alcohol, I promise. And yes, you promised lasagna. My mouth is watering already."

"Good. I wouldn't want to see the night end before it's really even started," she said sheepishly as she took the glass. "And me as a drunken idiot would pretty much do that. "

"No fear of that," Wyatt said, retrieving plates and utensils from the basket. "No way would I want things to end early."
