The green tennis ball was being thrown around between the people. His blond hair whipping in the wind, his laughter, it was all infectious, hypnotising. There are 7.9 billion people in the world and I am looking at this one. Why?
Lucy's hand waved in my face, I must of zoned out, I can't remember what she was yapping on about. Probably about her current boyfriend, Rylan. It is hard hearing about their 'relationship' Rylan is one of my best friends, but Lucy is going out with Ethan, her Ex at the same time. Rylan has no clue and only a couple of people know, no-one knows what to do. Its so complicated, right?
Damn, I zoned out again. I can't stop staring at him, I really want to join in, playing the game. One of his friends pulls him over and they laugh, I want to know the joke, how funny was it? He stops laughing and looks over at me. Oops I've been caught. His eyes crinkle as he smiles at me, showing off his cute little dimples, he looks like an adorable puppy. He starts walking towards me and calls my name.
Darcey...
"Darcey..."
"DARCEY!"
I jolt awake and brush my head against damp material. Damn, the tent was wet. I was the last person awake and people were surrounding me. It was my first time camping and it was very tiring, especially when you were always asked to help due to being the eldest. My two best friends were put in one group together and I was left out. I am always being the odd one out. On the plus side, I found someone who became my little sister and my best friend.
As we stepped out the tent the cold air slammed against our skin and the smell of Bacon invaded our sense of smell. I was then strangled to death by Bea (my little sis).
The End
If only... That would of saved me from the heartbreak to come later, but it would of also mean that i would have had no recollection of the good memories as well.
***Later***
We were sat in a circle outside the tent relishing the pure sunshine around 1pm. We had just gone zip-lining. It was one of the most frightening yet marvellous things we had done so far. We climbed up a ladder then up monkey ruts in a tree to reach a VERY high platform. I am not very good with heights.I got strapped in, held the rope, told to step to the edge, then freaked out. The instructor then pushed me off. It was the most horrible yet amazing sensation. It was the best when we had to make ourselves suspend in the air and then pull a lever and descended.
After eating lunch, a bread roll with nutella and cheddar cheese, weird combo but do not judge, we were told to sit and wait till the next activity. We enticed all our friends into our conversations with juicy gossip. We played truth or dare when I got someone to run with me around the field in flip-flops and we were dared to race crawling underneath a marquees elevated floor.
Then my boo's and bro's got onto the topics of ships. First it started off with celebrity ships like DNF and Tuboo, all innocent, then it went onto more raw ships. Shipping friends and trying to play matchmaker. It was my turn to be shipped and I showed no emotions which was funny because they were then arguing who I would fit with better... but I failed once a name was mentioned. His name.
