Cameron shook his head. “I only don’t want to talk about it because it’d be a waste of your time.”

Lilah looked down at him, looking a little surprised or offended. "It's never a waste of my time."

Cameron didn’t meet her gaze, though he traced her offendedness. “If you say so, Lilah.”

"If you don't want to talk about it, then I won't push you to. We can drop it," Lilah sighed, her features softening. "And you can go shower."

Cameron sighed. “I’ll probably just change. I don’t mind if I don’t shower.”

"No, you should shower. It'll help, trust me," Lilah assured him with a smile.

Cameron shook his head tiredly again. “No thanks. Thank you for the suggestion, though.”

"Cam…" Lilah sighed, shaking her head. I have no idea what to do with him…

Lily whined and wiggled in Cameron’s grasp. The puppy was hungry and tired. She wanted to go find Lilac and sleep with the older dog.

"Let's let Lily out, yeah?" Lilah suggested.

Cameron glanced down at the pup, as if just realizing she was there. “Oh- yeah, good idea.”

"How about if you shower, while I take Lily out?" Lilah offered.

Cameron blinked a couple times. “She’s prolly just hungry.”

"Then I'll go feed her. You can shower," Lilah pressed, gently taking Lily and standing.

Cameron watched Lily pull away with a tiny frown. He knew he wouldn’t do anything, therefore that consequence was being cold.

"If I come back here and you haven't showered, then I'm not getting you that pie for breakfast. Or lunch. Or dinner. Or even dessert," Lilah said as she started toward the door.

Cameron frowned a little more. He really wanted that pie. Maybe he’d just sneak down into the kitchens and nab one.

"And before you get any ideas, I'll tell the staff to hide all of the pie and not let you into the kitchens," Lilah declared, opening the door.

Cameron huffed gently into the sheets. Then he’d let himself starve.

"And they'll bring gruel up and force feed it to you," Lilah bluffed, though convincingly.

Cameron huffed into the sheets again yet didn’t move. So what if it’s gruel?

"Do you know what gruel tastes like? It's honestly the most disgusting thing in the world," Lilah said, holding back a smile.

Cameron huffed again. She’s bluffing. How would a princess like herself know?

"Don't you huff at me," Lilah laughed. "C'mon, Cam. Please just shower."

Cameron shook his head. “No, I’ll be fine.” His voice was muffled in the sheets.

"Maybe you will be, but I still want you to shower," Lilah said.

Cameron grunted. “I’ll just change.” He didn’t want to wash the lake smell out of his hair.

"Cam, please? It's not good for you to sit in the dirty lake water," Lilah pleaded.

“I like the dirty lake water,” He murmured softly into the sheets. “Alright, I guess I will.”

"Thanks, Cam. I'll be right back, then. I'm going to go feed Lily and drop her off outside with Lilac," Lilah said as she stepped fully out of her room.
