Coraline yawned, stretching her arms up as she kicked her sheets off her bed. Legs dangling off the end of the bed Coraline sat up onto her arms and stared down at legs that were longer then last night. Coraline knew she grew and grew quite quickly but this was ridiculous. Swinging her legs over Coraline walked over to her marked door and stood back against it before placing her hand above her head.

"How have I grown two inches?" Coraline asked curiously before frowning at her voice. It sounded weird. It sounded older. Coraline looked down at herself, at the clothes that had been too big on her last night but were now too snug. Especially around the chest area. "What the-BILL! BILL!"

Coraline opened her door, storming out into the hall and down towards the kitchen before she finally caught sight of her reflection. Coraline paused mouth open in shock as she looked at her face... her body! Coraline swallowed before giggling. This was going to be so awesome! She looked old!

"Nevermind!" Coraline yelled, turning around and around as she looked herself over. "This is so cool."

Looking around Coraline grabbed one of Bill's shirts and ran back towards her room with a happy whoop. Coraline put her 'DO NOT DISTURB' sign on her door before shutting it with a bang. Coraline needed a plan of action, Coraline needed to... get rid of her Coraline-ness.

"Okay, let's see. No key, no bracelet, no catbag, no Cat you'll have to stay here, no... wellies. Oh, but I like my wellies." Coraline said grumbling to herself as she began to write a list of things she wanted to do now that she was a Grown Up. "And I need a legend. A simple one just like Adam did. I could be Jo or ha! I'll be Caroline! Right, first I need clothes. And then I need a drink or a kiss or something! Ha this is brilliant!"

Coraline shrugged out of her clothes into Bill's oversized shirt and tugged on a pair of converse flats. Wrapping a belt around her middle she looked- well, Coraline thought she looked odd but she in fact looked hot. Peeking out of her bedroom Coraline looked around before making her escape.

"Going out!" Coraline yelled as she ran out of the Homestead. The island was in for a whole world of trouble.

It was either a violent, nasty death by dinosaur or an embarrassing, but probably a lot less painful death by kissing. Deciding between the two didn't take much time. With a deep breath, Johnny kissed Coraline again, pulling her closer and trying to ignore how she pressed against him, despite the fact that it really did feel pretty nice.

Coraline let out a soft eep or surprise as Johnny chose her over dinosaurs. She hadn't really thought he would choose that most boys didn't. Sliding her hands up over his shoulders and around his neck, Coraline pressed her entire body against Johnny as she kissed him quite happily.

She didn't need that tongue business, she was quite happy with this for now. It made her feel rather... warm. And weird. And definitely very um.

After a while Johnny began to realize that kissing was a whole lot easier as soon as you stopped thinking about it and just went on instinct. But only to a certain degree. As the kiss went on the hands on Coraline's shoulders began to roam of their accord until he had the sense to snap out of it and stop them before things went too far. Although, judging just how far 'too far' was was getting a bit difficult.

Coraline flushed as his hands wandered a little, heat spreading across her cheeks and down her body into the pit of her stomach. Coraline finally pulled away, her lips at least and looked at Johnny curiously. Turning her head, Coraline leaned around and kissed his cheek gently.

"Do you want to come waterfall diving with me later? I mean, that's better than dinosaurs right?" Coraline asked ducking her head a little and smiling shyly at him.

"Yeah. Yeah, that'd be great, I guess." Swimming, even when it involves jumping off of waterfalls, carried far less of a risk of death than dinosaurs and was (hopefully) less embarrassing than the kissing. Embarrassing as it was though, it was still pretty nice. After a moment or two Johnny realized he was still standing awfully close to Coraline and stepped back, blushing all over again.

"Umm..."

"Really?" Coraline asked curiously, breathing out a little and grinning at him. Coraline brushed her hair back and then took a step forward when Johnny started to umm. Ducking forwards quickly Coraline kissed Johnny on the lips briefly before darting towards the stairs. "You're overthinking again. So, later okay? At the waterfall. It's a date!"

Coraline ran up the stairs before he could say anything.
