This love tasted like chocolate and gooey marshmallows to Rio, and she couldn’t get enough…
Agatha adjusted her violet sweater, the neck of it catching on her braid, setting down the items she carried on the small wooden table Alice had set up a little way from the roaring fire.
“I can’t believe you’ve never had a roasted marshmallow,” Jen intoned, as she stood and helped Agatha set everything out for easier use. Graham crackers, giant jet puffed marshmallows and chocolate bars already cut into the perfect size; Jen nodded contentedly as Teen, well, Billy walked over with Eddie. They all still referred to him as Teen, mainly out of affection, and a little urge to tease their youngest coven member.
Rio shrugged as she joined them, taking a plate Teen had filled with what she’d need to make the yummy treats. “I never had time to indulge in things like this before,” she quietly stated, walking over to Agatha, who scooted over on the wooden double bench and took the plate from her.
“Well, now you do, so let’s get it poppin’!,” Eddie cheerfully called out. Agatha smiled, grabbing Rio’s hand, placing a kiss to the warm tips before handing Rio a long skewer with a marshmallow already speared.
“Just reach out and hold it over the fire, it will start to burn. You can either let the fire catch it or just turn it until its golden brown and pull it out. Ill have your cracker and chocolate ready,” she encouraged, smiling as Rio held her stick over the fire, watching the flames start to leave little scorch marks.
“I love to let mine catch fire, get it nice and burnt,” Alice laughed, watching a Lilia very carefully rotated hers until it was perfectly golden brown and building her little treat. Rio pulled her out once it was engulfed in fire and Agatha helped her build her Smore. They all watched as ‘THE’ Green witch tasted her gooey little treat before becoming consumed with theirs. Eddie kept letting his burn and fall in the fire, Teen and Alice laughing at his little pouts. Lilia took pity on him, taking his skewer and toasting a few to his liking, handing them back, with a little kiss to his temple, shaking her head in that affectionate way only of hers that was so motherly.
“What do you think,” Jen questioned around her own mouthful. Rio chewed, her head tilted to the side a bit, she long, midnight hair spilling over her own forest green sweater, pondering just how she felt.
“This taste like, the first time Agatha kissed me…” she whispered, voice trailing off.
Eddie smiled at her, his cheeks showing off dimples, “I know exactly what you mean,” he replied, giving Billy a kiss. Agatha pulled Rio to her, wrapping her long arms around her, nuzzling her nose into the long, wavy locks she loved playing with while falling asleep, leaving a kiss just below her ear.
The group carried on chattering away, the fire burning bright into the long night. Rio looked around the group and thought to herself, ‘Maybe they taste more like the love I feel right now, surrounded by this coven of mine.’
