Despite being Eleanor's shieldmate for a long time, Summer still had difficulty keeping up with the Aesir. She didn't keep up with the camp's training - simply watching Justin, Atticus, and Eleanor train was exhausting. Instead, she'd sneak off and venture around the camp, finding a couple other camper's doing the same. She would always find Chace in the Shipwreck, sketching or painting, though she didn't think he ever noticed her. She usually would find Caspian and Zachary by the lake, passed out together from training - she found it hilarious how they could fall asleep leaning back to back and this time took a picture of it with her phone. She could only assume that the two woke up when the rain started.
She'd guessed it was going to rain, but she'd left her umbrella in her bunker. She held her jacket above her head and rushed to her bunker, only stopping when Justin stopped her. The son of Thor was in a t-shirt and probably freezing, but he was insane in her opinion. He grabbed her and spun her around, leaving her helpless against the chilling rain. He'd only let her go when she'd sworn to the gods she would kill him and Atticus had stepped in to get the Aesir out of the rain.
Once she'd gotten her umbrella from her bunker, she opened it and held it against her shoulder, twirling it around as she skipped away from the bunkers. Whenever she wasn't with Ellie, she was wondering where her shieldmate was. She always wondered if Eleanor thought about her as much as Summer thought about her. She knew she should have been thinking about the other camps. She should have been worrying about a possible war, the peace talks, and training to make sure she was prepared. But she didn't think she could be prepared. How could anyone be prepared for a war unless they'd already fought in several?
She had the feeling that this was weighing more on Eleanor than her own shoulders. Eleanor was an Aesir. While Justin appeared carefree the last time she saw him, she could only guess how both he and Eleanor were on the inside, or when it was only them, alone doing research on the other mythologies. She wished there was something she could do to help, to make things easier on them, or at least Eleanor - Atticus could handle Justin on his own, and if he couldn't, he had Riley to help.
She stopped skipping and smiled widely when she saw Eleanor at the rainbow bridge. "Ellie-kins!" she called out to her before running over. She had to catch her footing, almost slipping on the bridge from the rain making it slick. She managed to catch her footing and grinned up at Eleanor. "So how was training?" It was no secret that Summer tended to ditch her training, unless it was with Eleanor. Any excuse to spend time with the Aesir, she took it.
