Story 14: The States VS The Forest

Delaware's POV
"Care to explain why I'm picking you three up?" I said in a somewhat harsh tone towards Texas, Arizona and Tennessee. "But-" "No ifs, ands, OR buts." "Fine, we went for a walk, but then we went and started messing around in the park, and we got full of mud." Tennessee answered. "There. Now you three have set an even lower expectation than you already have, and even before this, it was pretty low." I scowled. I was pissed and tired at the same time, NEVER a good combination.

I just wanted to go home, shut out the world, and sleep. No reading, no studying, no doing homework, just sleep. Pennsylvania was looking at me awkwardly the entire time. And her face just completely said, "Holy shit girl, are you ok?" And my face pretty much read "Don't fucking talk to me right now." That's how bad of a mood I was in. I stopped the car for a minute while Pennsylvania went into the convenience store to get something. I thought about my day in general, it was a big dumpster fire, and that was a fact.

Pennsylvania's POV
I could tell Delaware was pretty mad, so when I went into the convenience store, I got her a slushy, but I also got one for me too, so we could have them together. I walked back into the car, well, it was more a van, but whatever. I handed Delaware her slushy "Here you go, maybe this'll make you feel better." I said. "Oh, uh, thanks." She replied. I could tell she felt better that someone cared about her well-being for once. She started up the car again and started driving towards our house, well that was until we came to a little bump in the road.

"Fuck." Delaware mumbled. "Construction. We'll have to go the other way." "But you've never been the other way-"

"Quiet."

Oh man, I knew I was I fucked. But I tried to stay serious, nonetheless. Huh, that's a fun word to say.

Hawaii's POV
And why was I here? It's a funny story. So me and Alaska were playing a horror game. Now, Alaska is an expert at these games, but me? Hell no. So, of course, when I got the obvious jump-scare, fell backwards, and now my head hurts. Now, of course, Delaware had to worry about me, so she brought me with her, and a few other states, for different reasons. I scrolled through my iPhone, not minding the chaos. And then it died. "God damnit." I mumbled. And then I just heard it. And I'm not even gonna try and recite all the cuss words Delaware said. "The car just decided to break, and we're in the middle of the forest. What's next?" "Hold on, Let me call Dad with my phone, because yours is at the house, charging." Pennsylvania picked up her phone and called America.

Pennsylvania's POV
"Not answering. Let me leave a message." I said. "Hi Dad! So there was construction, and we went down the other road, the van broke, and so on. So, can you get back to us soon? Bye!" And as soon it was sent, Penn's phone went black. "Fuck." And Alaska's face lit up "CAMPING TIME, BABY! WOO!"

But then there was Delaware, holy shit.

Alaska's POV
"GET THE STUFF! LET'S GET CAMPING! WE DON'T HAVE ALL NIGHT!" I screamed. I was ECSTATIC. And Hawaii was ready, mainly because I like talking about my joyous camping adventures. So of course she was kinda excited, so she could experience MY experiences. So yea. You excited yet? Yes, I'm talking to you, the reader. Don't tell Matt this happened though, she'll get mad at me. Anyway, we had some ropes and blankets, so me and Pennsylvania made some hammocks with them, we also cleaned up the van a bit so some people could sleep in there, I easily started a fire, and we figured out where everyone could stay. We where soon ready for sleeping, but you can't go camping without sitting by the fire!

Matt's POV
The states sat by the fire, while Alaska and Hawaii went to go find some materials for a fire. Delaware was still not having it, though. "Come on Del! This could be a once in a lifetime experience! You know we've been so stressed out, so this is our escape!" Pennsylvania exclaimed, I mean, who couldn't turn down camping with the states? Oh wait, I shouldn't be getting involved in this. Delaware just sat there, frozen. "You wanna go to sleep now?" Pennsylvania asked. "Fine." Delaware replied. Alaska came out of the woods, carrying firewood and Hawaii. "I'll let you guys decide what happened." He said. There were also a few other states there, so obviously, there had to be fun. "Tennessee, drop us a song!" New York exclaimed. "Alright. This one goes out to New York." No idea how Tennessee had is guitar, just blame it on the gods. He started playing "The story of Tonight" While some of the others sang along, And Delaware got the guts to join in, and soon, everyone was singing. Life was good.

Delaware's POV
Last night was definitely a blur, but all I know is we sang Hamilton songs and and drank apple juice that we had in the back of the van. Definitely fun. I actually think that last part of the night made it all for the better, and honestly, and long as we're screeching "The story of tonight" at the top of our lungs at god-only-knows-how-late-in-the-night-it-was, life is exquisite. I was sleeping in the van, so when I looked out the window there was Alaska helping America fix the car. "Alright. Should be good to go. Wanna get going?" America asked Alaska. "Looks like Delaware just woke up, so let's get going." Alaska said. "Ame, I gotta tell you all about last night!" I exclaimed. Ame sighed. "This is gonna take a while,"

FINALLY! IT'S DONE! So, for starters, I went on my another un-motivational strike again. And I blame it on the drama going on in my life right now. But either way, after losing one of my best friends over me just hanging out with another girl for only one night, yes, I hung out with another girl for just a few hours, and she got mad at me, I swear you can't make this shit up... But I wrote a song about me losing her! Should I share it? It's still not the best condition, but I'll clean it up and maybe post it on YouTube! Either way, I'm actually kinda excited for what feels like a brand new start! So yea, that's my life right now, anyway, let's put this chapter to sleep properly, until next time, Matt, signing off. Goodbye!

EDIT: Jesus Christ I was wrong about the friend thing, turns out she was just having a bad day, and I seriously thought she was legitimately mad. And I showed her the song out of embarrassment... Why do I bother with this shit...
