A Burning Tale

Several Months have passed now since I moved to Camp Everfree and since a Month I'm happily together with Gloriosa, the head Camp-Director. There hasn't been much happening besides that Gloriosa and I are planning to marry soon after I proposed to her. We both already know it's going to be a very exciting day for the both of us.

Another Morning I woke up to smell buttered toast and roasted vegetables. As I opened my eyes I saw a small plate with said toast and vegetables and Gloriosa sitting on the edge of our bed, smiling at me, before her sweet voice softly broke the silence.

"Good Morning, Honey. I made some breakfast for you. I hope you like it"

I supported myself on my arms and gave her a gentle but sweet kiss. I felt so overwhelmed with joy as I took a bite from the toast after putting some roasted vegetables on it.

"It's delicious, Hun."

We both smile at each other after I finished to eat my breakfast. I put the plate aside and stood up to walk over to the closet to put on a shirt and pants. Some time later we both prepared the breakfast for the other campers. We both recieved very positive feedback on the food we cook and thanked everyone.

In the afternoon I was honored to lead the Archery Workshop and was happy to see many faces which were interested in Archery. I firstly gave everyone a safety instruction and then proceeded with basic knowledge.

"Before I start, are there any questions so far?"

I looked through the group for a while before continueing.

"Didn't think so. Okay, the most important thing is that you hold the bow and arrow in a ninety degree angle and hold your breath to focus on your target."

I demonstrated every step as I explained it and hit the bullseye perfectly.

"Follow these simple steps and you should be just fine. Just.. don't be like an old colleague and let go of the grip. It'll end badly."

I carefully watched the campers as they missed shot after shot. After a while Gloriosa came over and stood besides me with a happy smile.

"Everything going well?"

She asked as we both watched the campers. I nodded smiling.

"Yep. They're doing pretty well for their age. But they still need to learn alot. But I'm very confident of them."

After about an hour I told the campers to store the bows and arrows back in the hunters cabin. We ended the day with an evening campfire, where we roasted marshmallows and made stick bread. All in all it was a nice and mostly relaxing day.
As the time went by and it got close to midnight we all headed back into our tents, Gloriosa and me into the Directors cabin, and let the night pull us into our dreams.
