She shook her head freeing her hand. "As am I. And don't think flirting will get you anywhere, when I'm mad, I'M MAD."

"I'm not flirting with you," he protested, reaching her for her hand again. "I have a girlfriend. But I think I still might have a crush on you. So this whole thing is really complicated."
"Do you think I don't already know that?!" She exclaimed turning around. "Being friends is hard enough."
"Stevie," he muttered, pulling her into a hug. "Please calm down. I really don't want you to be mad at me. We'll figure this out okay."
"Figure what out?" She sulked pulling out of the hug.
"Whatever this is," he explained, gesturing between them. "I'm sorry I made you upset, I didn't mean to."
"Whatever." She said crossing her arms.
"Come on, I'm seriously sorry. I didn't want to make things awkward between us or make you feel bad," he insisted, frowning at her. "Please don't be mad."
She sighed and started to pick some strawberries, "Are you going to help me or not."
"Yeah, sure," he mumbled, sitting down to pick some strawberries. "Whatever."
She started to pick some, "Don't eat the strawberries, though. They taste awful."
"Alright." He nodded and continued picking he strawberries in silence.
"Sorry I was a jerk." She muttered.
"You weren't a jerk," he protested, stopping to look at her. "You were just upset and it was my fault. I'm sorry."
"Don't be sorry, I was over acting."
"i shouldn't have brought it up," he argued, shaking his head.
"Can we stop arguing and say its none of our faults?" She said softly.
"Alright fine," he agreed, hugging her again.
"Are we better now?" he asked quietly, holding onto her.
"Okay, good," he replied, pulling back and smiling at her.
"It's nothing." She said looking at him.
"Okay," he said skeptically. "When are we leaving for the quest?"
"I think... Next week. So many people are get sick around camp, they want to know if they can fix it with the pills we have."((Want the strawberries to be what's making everyone sick?))
"So we have some time then," he noted, nodding. ((Yeah, that works. And Stevie ate one, so maybe she gets sick too.))
"A lot of time." She smiled.((What to continue here AND on our quest topic?))
"Yeah, good," he replied, smiling at the ground. ((okay. I'm waiting on Halle's post. Is she on?))
((I don't think so.))She looked at the berries, "Do you think you know why they taste so sour?"
He shrugged. "No. Maybe some nymph put a curse on them."
She got a distant look, "Maybe it was the kids we saw together."
"What? The ones by the lake?" he asked, looking over at her. "What about them?"
"I just thinking... Maybe it was them." She looked down. "Stupid, I know."
"They messed with strawberries? It's a possibility," he replied. "Not at all stupid."
"True. But what did they do to the strawberries?" he asked, looking down at them.
She raised her eyebrows, "Maybe witchcraft."
He nodded. "Possibly. But why?" he asked, looking over at her.
"Maybe to get revenge, or maybe for a prank..."
He nodded pensively. "Yeah, I guess."
"I kind of hope it isn't them." She looked down. "That girl probably wouldn't care if she killed us."
He nodded in agreement. "She was crazy."
"If she's behind this it's not a good thing," he said.
"That girl is mad." She rolled her eyes.
He nodded. "She's horrible," he added. "I hope she had nothing to do with it."
