Chapter 38: Hiking and Camping
The breath of spring has awakened the wilderness of Fox, and the snow has not yet completely melted, but new green has emerged from the wet soil and damp branches, and the majestic rhythm of life has been continuous.
The fluffy-tailed red squirrel was pulling at its stock under the roots of the tree, but it was pricked by the hedgehog, which had not yet fully awakened from hibernation, and was so frightened that it scurried back into the tree, making a series of thin and light sounds.
Nahi is most familiar with this kind of environment, and has already started to make up for the scene of eating barbecue, although he has just had a good time eating at Salga Lake.
Yes, that fairyland-like uninhabited secret was called Salga by Carlisle, and it is said to be in honor of a dear friend who died unexpectedly.
Unsure if Linda and the others would be able to accept this wild barbecue, or let Dmitry show off his vampire hunting skills, Nahi smacked her lips with some regret.
"Want to eat? I'll catch one for you in a moment. For Dmitry, the mountain road was no different from peace, pretending to be like everyone else, panting and climbing, but in fact attention was all on Nahi, and naturally noticed her greedy expression.
"What? You wouldn't want to eat such a cute squirrel, would you? Penny has been a cheerleader all year round, and the physical strength and cardiopulmonary function of the jumping exercise played a role at this time, leading the way with Hadlin of the football team, walking in the front. Hearing Dmitry's words, he looked back at Nahi in shock, and couldn't believe that the most gentle and beautiful human elf would want to hunt small animals on the spot.
"Huh... Say it as if you don't eat meat... Hah..."Linda was the most inactive, panting on the side of the crutches climbing crutches.
Nahi stuck out his tongue with a smile, a little embarrassed by his greed, and seeing that Dmitry was still in a posture of being ready at any time, he shook his hand gently: "Didn't you bring beef?" Just bake those, and it's troublesome to clean up the freshly caught ones. ”
The cold and slender big hand immediately held the warm and gentle water with his backhand, and everything else was no longer important, and the peach blossom eyes reflecting the spring light only looked at the beauty in front of him at this moment, flashing with intoxicating tenderness.
Linda: ......
So, why the hell is she talking to Naihi? Is it for dog food?
How could a girl's hike be just a simple climb of the mountain, and the three girls had to stop and take pictures from time to time.
Of course, the focus of Penny's photography is herself, this time with Hadlin, the exclusive photographer, she is even more happy to shoot, jumping, running, climbing trees, picking flowers, if it weren't for the cold weather, she even wanted to come to a Wild Creek bikini series.
Linda likes macro micro-focus, carrying her baby SLR on her back, indulging in the budding and struggling of all new things, kneeling or lying on the wet mountain road, twisting herself into a weird posture, and rolling in mud, which makes Penny laugh.
Nahi just shoots with her phone, she prefers grand compositions, and the inaccessible natural mountains and forests are rich in layers, and they can be taken with no photographic skills to shoot amazingly dense or elegant.
But she and Dmitry tacitly did not take portraits of each other, and the photos are easy to reveal their identities, maybe there is nothing wrong now, but it will be a great hidden danger decades later.
Selena, who has been working in the secret government department, has long warned about the horrors of online big data, and they have always attached their front-facing cameras and never used fingerprints.
By the time they stopped and found a suitable campsite, it was already past noon, and several people were hungry. Penny took out a few sandwiches and gave them to the crowd.
The two had actually discussed a countermeasure yesterday, but seeing Dmitry's stiff appearance when he took the food, Nahi still couldn't help but want to laugh, but he didn't laugh too much and gloated, biting his lip and holding it back, but he held himself back so that his cheeks were pink, and his eyes were watery.
Seeing this, Dmitry hated and loved, rubbed the peach-like girl of early spring into his arms, and bit it hard, and after biting himself, he first felt distressed, pecked her pink eyelids and white cheeks with pity, and finally fell on her soft and moist lips, and rubbed them shallowly.
"Ahem... I'm sorry, but can you take into account the feelings of a single dog? Linda took a bite of her sandwich and was about to swallow it, almost choking to death.
I can't blame her for making a fuss, the main thing is that the picture in front of her is too exciting. Maybe it's because the height difference between the two is too perfect, maybe Nehi is too soft and well-behaved, maybe it's Dmitry's restrained but crazy movements, obviously it's not an eighteen forbidden action, but it's a deep and intense desire that makes the air hot all of a sudden.
The atmosphere was interrupted, and Dmitry was not good to continue. Holding Nahi to find a rock and sit down, pretending to eat, while the others were not paying attention, he quickly stuffed the sandwich in his hand into Naihi's wrapper, and only held the wrapping paper and moved his mouth empty.
Two sandwiches weren't too much for Nahi, and she was afraid of being discovered, so she bit quickly one bite at a time, and her cheeks were swollen, like a little hamster hiding food.
Eating too fast and choking a little, Nahi frowned and thumped her chest. Dmitry hurriedly handed over a bottle of yogurt and chuckled to smooth her back.
The campsite is located in the middle of the forest on an open meadow near a stream. After simply padding their stomachs, Dmitry and Hadlin were in charge of setting up the tent, and the three girls were collecting branches nearby.
"Listen to Penny, you're teaching at Western University now?" Hadlin was full of curiosity about this former school figure, and talked to Dmitry while cooperating with a string of tent stands.
"Hmm." In Nahi's absence, Dmitry is the noble and detached teacher Theo, who cherishes words like gold and has no intention of talking freely.
Hadrin touched his nose, he was a sports student, his grades in cultural classes were really average, and he had not received a letter of acceptance from a formal university, and he planned to attend a community college first, and then transfer to Seattle University or Warsington University.
I was thinking of building a good relationship with Dmitry, and then I mixed up a letter of recommendation or something, uh, now it seems that this is more difficult than failing a math test.
Let's talk about it later, there are still two years to go, and who knows what it will be like then.
The midday temperature gradually rises, and although the sun is still hiding behind thick clouds, it also casts a melting halo.
The action of setting up the tent was wide open and closed, and the thick jacket was a little in the way, and Hadlin's forehead was already sweating, so he simply took off his coat and threw it on the backpack on the side.
The undershirt clings to the texture and puffs out a strong curve with the action of lifting or pressing. The boy's face was already a little angular, his thin lips were pursed, his jaw was sharp, and his short chestnut hair was slightly curly.
Not far away, Penny held her face with both hands, and her cheeks flushed with heat and flush just by looking at the hard-working silhouette. This is the boy she likes, annoyed and scolded, but an action, a look, will still attract attention and touch the heart.
Nahi looked sideways at Penny like this, happy for her, but also a little confused. All she knew was the natural bond between the vampire and the singer, deep and fiery, persistent and long-lasting.
And Penny, Penny's feelings are the beginning of love, it is a young Muai, shallow and sweet, it may dissipate in a long time, and it may change color in the impermanence of the world, but the initial beauty is always sincere. Who's to say it's bad?
Linda walked past the two of them with a branch in her arms, rolling her eyes helplessly. But after the mistake, there was more loss and confusion in her lowered eyes, which she herself was not aware of.
Her parents went their separate ways when she was very young. My father married another early, married and divorced, and I heard that now he doesn't marry at all, and only changes his girlfriend one term at a time. The mother is married to a career, and she revolves around secret missions every day, not to mention her daughter, who even puts her own safety out of the way.
The two people who should teach her love the most are the two extremes, so that she has no illusions and no expectations for love.
But now, the two pairs in front of her seem to be giving her a correct demonstration, and they take the trouble to tell her, don't be afraid, this is what love looks like.
It was as if something had opened the hard shell in my heart, and I struggled tenaciously like spring grass, carefully tempted, and sprouted from the frozen soil that had been sealed in the dust for a winter.
Linda suddenly felt a little panicked, and such a change made her feel insecure.
Throwing the branch in her hand in front of the tent, Linda crossed her waist and pretended to complain: "I don't want to eat dinner at all, the dog food is full, thank you!" A single dog applies to leave the site for consumption. ”
Penny leaned into Hadlin's arms, laughing heartlessly, waving generously, only reminding her to stay safe.
Nahi noticed that something was wrong in her expression, and was a little worried, trying to dissuade her, but was pulled by Dmitry.
"Don't worry, I've marked her meta-consciousness and will keep an eye on her." Dmitry whispered in Nehi's ear.
I forgot that Dmitry also has a talent for tracking...
Nahi suddenly realized that he had not seen Dmitry's skills, and since the first meeting, he has always looked like an ordinary man, except that he can't hide his body temperature, and even some vampire traits are not obvious.
He rarely moved quickly in front of her, didn't sparkle in the Seattle campus sun, and never used his talent to stalk her or spy on her. Even the pursuit is a traditional and solemn confession, and it has never kidnapped her with the meaning of the singer's morality and forced her to respond.
He is like a dragon stripped of its scales, a knight stripped of its armor, not boasting of strength, not showing off his demeanor, revealing his true and fragile heart, to be cherished or trampled on, without the slightest complaint.
His eyes were sour, and Nehi buried himself in Dmitry's chest, clutching the hem of his shirt.
Lo and behold, Hadlin also knew how to take off his coat and tempt Penny with his muscles. This fool's jacket is still well worn, and even his neck is not exposed.
Dmitry was flattered by Nehi's initiative, hugged his slender waist, and rubbed his chin against the top of the little girl's fluffy hair, "What's wrong?" ”
Naxi was embarrassed to say his little emotion, poked his finger at his waistline, and spoke: "I ask you, when you were in school before, why didn't your skin shine?" ”
"Because I wore sunscreen?"
Nahi: ......
