"Hey, we all got our things." Cammy said, nudging him with her shoulder as she returned the smile. "Scented soap."
"Hey, we all got our things." Cammy said, nudging him with her shoulder as she returned the smile. "Scented soap."
Alex raised a brow with an amused smile, "Scented soap?" His head tilted to the side.
"Can't do it. The smell, seeing it, anything. Can't stand the stuff." Cammy answered, pulling her bag around to dig through it, pulling out a ziploc bag with a plain bar of soap in it. "I started carrying the damn thing around, because apparently everyone likes scented soap."
Alex let out a small laugh, shaking his head in disbelief, "Damn, I was not expecting that. What other random things you go tin that bag then, huh?"
"All sorts of things. Name a thing, and chances are I have it in here. Obviously, not something like a printer, but yeah." Cammy said, something warming in her chest at his laugh. "Go on, pick an item."
Alex shrugged a shoulder, crossing his arms over his chest, "Uh… a spork?" He raised a brow, a smile now permanent on his lips.
Cammy stuck her tongue out slightly as she dug around, eventually pulling out a plastic spork with a triumphant look. "Yup. And yeah, I got a spoon and fork in here too, somewhere."
Alex let out another laugh, "Wow… that's actually pretty impressive. So you just collect random things you think would be useful and stick them in your bag?"
"Things I know would be useful." Cammy corrected, digging around. "I've got snacks, 'cause Pidgeot forgets to eat when he gets in that weird sciencey head space. My wine, a water bottle, too many pairs of fucking earbuds, Hunk's recipe book, 'cause reading it helps him calm down, nail polish and makeup, obviously…and like, a shitton of other things."
Alex peered into the bag before he pulled away and nodded, "It's nice that you care so much about Hunk and Pidge. I don't know anyone else who'd remember to pack things for them to make sure they're okay."
"They're my best friends?" Cammy said, tilting her head in confusion. "Of course I'd have things for them. "
Alex looked towards the ground, "Right, yeah… apart from Shiro I've never really had a best friend before so I wouldn't know…"
"Honestly, I might just be weird. Don't sweat it." Cammy closed her bag, slinging it over her shoulder as she bumped him.
Alex cracked a smile, and bumped her back, "Nah, you're definitely weird."
"How rude." Cammy feigned offense, placing a hand over her heart.
Alex chuckled, “Whatever. C’mon, don’t we have more cleaning to do?”
"Aw man, you're right." Cammy wrinkled her nose, smile still in place as she looked around. "Let's check out that room, see what we can clean inside."
Alex nodded, making his way towards the room Cammy pointed out. He pushed open the door, searching around for a light switch before he finally found it.
Cammy was already in the room before Alex had found the lightswitch, looking around. They had gone through some sort of side door into a large, open room with a high ceiling and elegant decor. "It's a ballroom."
Alex raised a brow, walking further into the room and spinning in a circle was he was in the center, “Damn… this place is epic.”
"I feel like I'm in a Disney movie." Cammy said softly, her voice carrying throughout the large and fairly empty ballroom despite the low level of her volume. "Dancing bears, painted wings, things I almost remember.." She sang quietly, a small smile playing on her lips.
Alex looked over towards Cammy, “And a song, someone sings, once upon a December.” He finished the lyric, looking away so she wouldn’t see his blush.
Cammy blinked, half of a babbled sentence in Spanish spilling from her lips before she could stop herself. She shook her head, repeating herself in English this time. "Dude. You're a Disney fan?"
Alex frowned, though the blush seemed to darken, “One, Anastasia is not Disney and two… m-maybe…”
"My category for Disney includes anything similar, because it's the only name I can remember." Cammy said, waving dismissively as she practically bounced on her feet. "And maybe? You just sang back to me! Not even Hunk does that!"
“You mention to anyone that I did and I’ll cut your tongue out.” Alex turned back to her and crossed his arms, though he didn’t make eye contact with her.
"While part of me desperately wants to go and tell everyone right now, it'd be really hard to make out with someone without a tongue." Cammy mused, sighing dramatically. She huffed a laugh, placing her hands on her hips as she spun around, returning to looking around the ballroom.
Alex sighed a little, walking around the outside of the ballroom. This time it was his turn to him softly, almost having a light bounce in his step as he did so.
Cammy's mouth quirked up into a smile at the sound of Alex humming, and she winked over at him before closing her eyes. The steps from the dance instruction videos she'd watched as a kid came to mind easily, and despite being a bit rusty, she didn't have too much issue with them.
Alex looked over to Cammy and watched her for a moment, keeping up the tune before he eventually started singing it, words easily flowing from his lips. The song was kind of slow and… relaxing.
