"What was that for?" Hunter asked as Brooke's lips finally pulled away from his. He leaned in and kissed her lightly on the lips again.
"Mmm...For being the best boyfriend I've ever had." She said, pulling herself closer to him. Hunter had noticed how much more affectionate Brooke had become in the last couple days, but he didn't really mind it. It didn't go too far like it did when she was drunk, so it wasn't too bad. It was actually really good. "And for being pretty darn cute." She giggled and then pulled Hunter down to her, kissing him deeply on the lips. He moved his hands gently around her, holding her tight. She pulled herself closer and closer, pressing her hips into Hunter's. Hunter raised an eyebrow as he felt her groan a little against his lip then move her hands down the under his shirt.
"Hey." He said, pulling away a little only to be pulled back again. He held her back again. "Alright. If we don't leave we're going to be late." He said, taking her hand. She frowned a little then sighed.
"Alright, but you have to promise to not be so great all the time, understand?" She said, leaning up and kissing him again. "Then I won't feel the urge to kiss you all the time!" She said with a laugh. Hunter playfully rolled his eyes then started walking toward the dining hall.
"Are you excited for capture the flag tonight?" Hunter asked, nudging her a little.
"Only if you plan on winning again. We're on the same team this time, so maybe we should team up." She said before gasping and gripping his arm. "We'd be unstoppable!" Hunter laughed a little nervously. Hunter knew how well Brooke fought and it wasn't well and on top of that, Hunter really didn't want to be alone in the woods with her for an extended period of time.
"We'll have to see what the Athena kids say. You know how it goes when you disagree with them. I hope they say we can team up!" He said with a fake smile. They finally arrived in the dining hall and he kissed her temple gently before splitting off to their tables after getting their food.
"She wants me. She wants me bad, Jake and I don't know what to do." Hunter said with a sigh. He grabbed his cup and looked at it a moment before pondering if he could get alcohol. Instead, he order strawberry lemonade. Jake, once he stopped laughing, looked up at Hunter.
"Oh, excuse me." He said before taking a drink and wiping his eyes. "Brooke Stephens wants to have sex with you and you're stopping her? Sorry, can I get a 'what the hell' from the table, please." Jake said, raising his hand as this section of the Hermes table shouted, "What the hell!?" Hunter headdesked then let out a groan.
"On top of that, she wants to team up during capture the flag. I can't team up with her!" He said, looking up again. "She's a terrible fighter. She draws too much attention. She might rape me!" He took a big swig of lemonade then took a deep breath. "It'll be okay." He said with a nod. "Jake, distract me, so I can eat."
"If the master pleases." He said with a roll of his eyes. "Did you see Arabella and Brett come in here?" He asked. Hunter looked up a little surprised.
"No, were they making out or something?"
"Quite the opposite actually. Cold as a glacier. I don't know what happened, but it was not the flirty cutie patootie crap we've seen for the past few days." Jake said, taking a bite of food. Hunter ventured a glance at Brett who was talking to some of his friends. Then he looked over at Arabella who was talking to Danny. She looked bothered by something.
"I wonder if she finally knows that it wasn't him." Hunter said quietly. "Should I tell her? Should I tell her it's me?" He asked in a hushed tone, far more secretive than he probably needed to.
"Well, what if it's something else? Then you've revealed yourself far too soon. You gotta think about these things, Hunter." Jake said in a fatherly voice. Hunter poked at his food a little.
"I don't know. I just hate keeping this secret. I know I should, but-" A horn sounded and Hunter looked up. "Capture the Flag." He said before drinking the rest of his lemonade and then turning just in time for Brooke to grab him by the hand and drag him out of the dining hall toward the forest.
