"We should get out of the water. Dont want us ending up in the hospital wing with pneumonia on our first week back." He says.
"Right." I reply, the pain evident in my voice.
What was that? Were we about to kiss? Maybe i misread the situation but... I dont know. I could of sworn that was what was going to happen next. Yet here we are sitting in the edge of the lake in silence, the only noise to be heard is our shivering.
"We need to dry our clothes" I say. "I know a place we could warm ourselves up" I state as I stand up and begin walking back through the forest. We climb up the ledge I had just moments ago fallen down and begin our trek.
A few moments later we arrive at an abandoned bandit camp.
"A bandit camp? Why would we come here?" Sebastian asks, stopping in his tracks.
"Relax. I cleared it out a day or two ago. No ones here. And besides, they have a firepit" I say as I continue walking towards the pit.
"Confringo!" I say as I cast my wand towards the fire and watch as the flames rise towards the moonlit sky. I kick off my boots before I take off my vest and begin unbuttoning my shirt.
"What are you doing?" Sebastian asks, giving me a concerned look.
"I dont know about you, but I dont feel like freezing to death. And theres no way Im going to feel any warmth with these drenched clothes attached to my body."
I remove my shirt and hang it on the tent of the bandit camp, adding my socks and vest with it. Im left in nothing but a bra and my skirt as I approach the fire and hover over it in an attempt to get warm. Immediately the warmth radiates onto my body and I feel the goosebumps dissapearing from my skin.
"You know. When Imelda dared me to do this. I definitely didn't forsee myself standing half naked infront of you in an abandoned bandit camp. Thats for sure"
