Watching AJ disappear back towards the building again, Cam couldn't help but wish he had said something else to her. Anything. Just to break the ice that was forming a little. Mentally kicking himself, he turned back to look at Chandi as she asked about his scars.
Cam threaded his arm around Chandi's drawing her towards the stand of palms he had passed earlier. "If ah'm gonnae be telling stories, it's probably best tae take advantage of that wee bit o' shade. It's just a wee bit warmer than the west coast o' scotland eh.." He smiled down at her, genuinely pleased to see a friendly, if at present unfamiliar face. "And ye can fill me in on the new look as well." As they moved over the beach, the warm sand oozing around their feet, Cam looked upwards at the trees arching skywards and the broad leaves which crowned them. The sun was still high in the sky and the broad leaves cast a cool shadow almost straight down onto the sand below. Dropping a little more heavily than intended, Cam made himself comfortable, pressing his back against the silvery trunk of a palm. He patted the ground next to him as he looked up at Chandi before looking down at the scars plainly visible on his forearms. "The scars.. Most o' them were a little goin' away present fae some pointy toothed buggers back in London. Ye'll be pleased tae ken that what ah gave them in return makes this lot look like a bad papercut." He looked back up into her eyes. "As fer the rest, just general bumps and scrapes. Ran intae some troubles up on the Canadian border. Ah think ah must be gettin' clumsy in mah auld age. How about yerself?"
