(THESE ARE FAKE ROLES, THE REAL PEOPLE WOULD NEVER DO THESE ACTIONS, + this one isn't very good, I'm just trying to get 2 chapters out a day.)
I crept to the spot the little oak tree was at. I looked back at camp to see Puffy walking alone to the theater. I looked back at the forest and walked in. I heard a few wolves, but those were miles away on the tops of the mountains.
I looked around some more. Why did I think I'd actually find something?
"Minx?" I heard somebody say. I quickly turned around and saw Wilbur behind me. He was a boy I met at lunch. "I'm sorry, Will, you scared me." He laughed and asked why I was in the forest all alone. I trust him, so I told him what I saw. Not like I don't trust Puffy, I just didn't want her to think I'm crazy, that's all. "That's strange. My Dad always told me that if you see something like that, believe in your gut." I looked at the camp again and walked away. "Yeah? Well your dad is crazy." I immediately regretted what I said to him. But I couldn't stop. When I walked into the theatre I saw Puffy at the front of the stage. And what am I? A background character. This was my favorite play ever, and I memorized the lines to the main character as a kid. She was my favorite. I felt so sad when I didn't get to be her, but I was happy for Puffy. I smiled and waved at her but she looked mad at me.
After practice, I walked to the cabin by myself. I don't know, I didn't think Puffy would want to walk with me this time. As I opened the cabin door I saw Wilbur standing by Kacey. They both looked disappointed. "What?" Wilbur rolled his eyes and rolled up his sleeve and I saw a scar on his arm. "Will! What happened?" Kacey laughed and told me "Nothing happened, Minx, but your relationship with Puffy will be over by tonight." I was confused. "What do you mean?" It hit me. They're trying to make Puffy hate me by faking a cut, and that's why Puffy looked mad at me. I went up to Kacey and punched her. She held her swollen jaw that I punched for the 2nd time this week. I heard the door slam open. "MINX, HOW COULD YOU? You first cut Wilbur's arm for trying to help you, then you punch Kacey? I hate you." MY whole body filled with anger. "I-" She covered my mouth. "I don't want to hear it. You're a monster." I stood there wanting to punch Puffy. I would never, though. I still care about her with my whole heart. "OH, and by the way. Have this back." She threw the leather jacket at my face. My eyeliner started to run and she shut the door and walked Wilbur and Kacey to the health office.
Hannah walked behind me. "This was your plan too?" I ran to her with my finger pointing at her face. "No. It wasn't. It was wrong of them to do, and I'm so sorry. I should have stopped them." I put my arm down. My feelings would start to sink. But Hannah did something that a monster like me didn't deserve. She hugged me. "Pretend I'm Puffy." She said, I smiled.
The next day, I saw Puffy sitting with Wilbur and Kacey. I just sat with Hannah, I didn't mind it. I noticed that Puffy kept looking at me with guilt. I guess she knows me too well to think I'd do that to Wilbur. But then I think, I did it to Puffy herself. I could still see the scar. Hannah threw away our trash and took us back to the cabins. "Want to go for a walk?" She asked. I agreed, grabbing my jacket. "Ooh, I like your new patch!" I didn't have a new patch. "What?" Then she pointed to the little patch that wasn't a band one, or a patch of my cats, It was a design from my favorite Christmas play, that Puffy was playing herself. I had a big grin on my face, knowing I'd been forgiven.
