Camille sighed as she placed a skirt back onto the rack. She wasn’t sure what to wear for her birthday and she was feeling overwhelmed. “I’m literally about to give up.” She said with a huff as she turned toward her friend. “Have you found anything?” She asked, curious but hoping she hadn’t so she could share the same predicament.

"So, what do we think?" Camille questioned as she had set out a small charcuterie board on the table with a mixture of different snacks. She was asking Nikki about the lavender lemonade that she had spent earlier in the week mulling over. Cami thought it tasted good, but she had to have her friends taste it too so that she was sure it did. She was confident, but not all friends had good taste, not that she was discounting Nikki. "If you don't like it, I do have regular lemonade." She offered just in case.

Wearing a long dress in a hot sweaty bar wasn't her best idea but Camille was ignoring the discomfort with the drinks she had been consuming. She pulled her drink to her mouth and took a sip before looking directly at Finn. "I'm seriously digging this look, Finnley." Camille was impressed. It didn't really look like Finn, but that was the point of Halloween. “Did you do the makeup yourself?”

The sun felt nice against Cami's skin as she walked through the gardens. She had finished the first few tasks of the morning, but now she had time to wander and pester her fellow co-workers. Samuel was her first target especially as she had started the job right before leaving so she hadn't a chance to see him before that.

Her eyes stayed on the tree lines as she walked down paths as she wasn't sure if he'd be scaling a tree or be on the ground today. It was one of the main reasons she loved the job. The days here were never boring as there was something different to do every time. Much to her relief, she spotted him not too far off.

"Sam!" She shouts before drawing closer to him. "If you're not too busy right now... I have a question." One that she had been meaning to ask. One that she hoped he would say yes to and she was sure he would, but one couldn't be too positive.

It was closing time for the shop and Camille was more than happy to go home. Her creativity was at an all time high today and she had created a few too many arrangements with African Blue Basil flowers that came from her own garden. She had decided that she'd hand them out to strangers as she walked back home. It was one of the main reasons why she loved her job. Although her boss wouldn't approve, she didn't care. Who didn't love randomly receiving free flowers? She locked up with the arrangements in hand before heading home.

There was a small breeze on the walk home that felt like gentle kisses on her face. It was pleasant and she was glad to finally be outside for the rest of her day. It wasn't long until she saw someone ahead of her. "Hey!" Her voice was a little loud which she needed so that they could hear her. "Would you care for some flowers?" She asked, holding out the bouquet. "It's on the house, and by that, I mean free."

Here Camille was again, at the flower festival, but this time she had backstage access. She helped with the flowers that were planted in some areas around the garden. She was quite proud of the displays that she was now enjoying as a viewer instead of a producer.

It was a little warm so she was happy when she was leaving the ice cream stand with her double scoop chocolate cone only for it to splat on the ground about a minute later after she had bumped into someone. Her life was a joke. Why would this happen out of all places? She sulked as she looked down, and it may have been her fault, but damn, she was really sad about it. "Well, fuck me I guess." She muttered under her breath.

Camille was no stranger to venturing to events alone. It was her me time and she'd usually meet with Raleigh at some point only and if her sister had decided to come out. She enjoyed her own company and that's all that mattered to her. Being alone also ensured any type of adventure to happen, if she chose to go along on one.

The ferris wheel called her name as she stared up towards it. It was a bit past sunset. The sky was at that point of different mixtures of colors. Hues of pink, orange, blue and purple filled the sky. She had to look past the safety risk. It would be worth it. She marched on into the line with her eyes on the Ferris wheel still. This was self care.

And there it was. A familiar voice. No fucking way. Her eyes averted to the person next to her as she turned for a full view. Jared Evans. Her nose flared a bit in annoyance. Out of everyone in the whole town, it would be that her luck to run into him. "I'm surprised to see you here." She was. This was not in her plans. "How did those flowers pan out for you?" She was curious, but she wasn't ready to face the mystery girl if he was with her. They hadn't even had their coffee yet which she had time to prepare for and now she had to wing it.

Camille finally had time for the lesson that Harris had promised her. She needed some type of self-defense skills because she wanted to be that person who could fight back if she were to ever find herself in a sticky situation. And going out alone for the most part didn't guarantee something would happen, but it was best to be prepared. Their session had been postponed due to the fires over the weekend. She was as stoked from the moment he had said he would show her some boxing moves so being at the gym. She had been staring at herself in the mirror before turning towards Harris. "Okay, so.. this stretching is apart of this how?" She asked as she wanted to go straight into action.
