Main Campfire, Saturday Evening

[fratboybitch.livejournal.com]

He wasn't going to admit that it was boredom that drove him out of his alcove and to the main campfire. He wasn't bored. He was just...without anything to do. Boredom he could have solved by sleeping. Nothing to do meant he wanted something to do and thus, he took himself to the main campfire. Despite the warmth, he lit the fire anyway. If anything, he could light his cigarettes on it.

Though, even he was intelligent enough to realize that was a really dumb idea and would only be tried if he got himself drunk. The snag in that idea was that he had no alcohol with him. Sad, really. He could have done with a nice bender.

Instead, he was just going to lay against a log and smoke for awhile. If he were some deep poet type, he'd call it stargazing. Since he wasn't that type, he was calling it relaxation. It worked for him.

Jennifer settled in at the campfire and made herself comfortable. "Hi," she said.

Considering how many people this spot tended to attract, Alex was almost surprised to see someone he didn't recognize.

"Hey," he replied, glancing over at her briefly. And deciding he could be somewhat polite, he added, "How's it going?"

[not-jaded-yet.livejournal.com]

"Pretty good," Jennifer said. "Decided to take a break from studying."

Yes, Jennifer was studying hard, even though it was only the summer term.

"Thought you were quitting," Effy remarked, settling herself on another nearby log.

No, she never really believed he'd actually do that.

[fratboybitch.livejournal.com]

"Fell off the wagon," he said, not sounding unhappy at all. "Think I'm going to stay there for awhile. I lasted about an hour. Better luck next time."

[pastmewrong.livejournal.com]

"And I didn't even get to try and steal your fags or anything." That was sad. Never one to complain about a free excess.

Jennifer waved at the girl she didn't know.

"Hi," she said.

[pastmewrong.livejournal.com]

Effy looked the girl over curiously a moment, and nodded a sort of greeting. "Alright." It served as a greeting, and a vague sort of question at the same time.

"Bus buddy," Riggins said as he sat down in front of the campfire. Yeah, he remembered this time.

[fratboybitch.livejournal.com]

"Hey there, bus buddy," Alex returned. "Thought you'd disappeared or something."

Or Alex just hadn't been looking. Or cared. He figured Tim didn't either, really.

[badassfullback.livejournal.com]

"Were you missing me?" Riggins asked with a smirk.

[not-jaded-yet.livejournal.com]

To quote a fellow Fandom High student, Helloooooo Nurse!

Though Jennifer's actual greeting was a smile and a "Hi, I don't think we've met."

[badassfullback.livejournal.com]

"I'd remember if I met someone that looked you," Riggins said, giving the girl a smile. "Tim Riggins."

[pastmewrong.livejournal.com]

"Look who isn't a disco ball anymore."

She's still working the oh so polite greetings here.

[badassfullback.livejournal.com]

"Look who still hasn't learned how to say hello," Riggins said, smiling at her.

"Isn't it a bit warm for that?" Ellie asked, glancing at the fire. It didn't stop her from taking a seat on a nearby log, though.

[not-jaded-yet.livejournal.com]

"Warm for what?" Jennifer said. She smiled at her friend.

[awesomebigsis.livejournal.com]

"The fire," Ellie replied. "Not that I'm complaining or anything. It's a nice night to be outside."

[fratboybitch.livejournal.com]

"I was going for cozy," he said, glancing over at her. "You know, like Hell."

[awesomebigsis.livejournal.com]

"I think there should be a few couches then," Ellie said. "Though, for Hell, I suppose logs are cozy."

"You know," Turtle noted, coming over and having a seat, "of course it's going to seem like we keep running into each other if you keep hanging out at the main campfire."

[fratboybitch.livejournal.com]

"I was here first and you came over," Alex pointed out. "You keep running into me."

[not-jaded-yet.livejournal.com]

"Turtle, hi," Jennifer greeted her. "I heard something interesting about you."

Of course Karev was out here. When wasn't he sulking about with his smokes?

Griff bit back the snide comment to instead take a seat with a wave. "Having a good one?" Look, they had two days till full-on male bonding time began. Griff was looking to preserve his future sanity.

[fratboybitch.livejournal.com]

"Depends on what you mean," Alex said, glancing over at Griff. "Good day, good night, good something else?"
