"Rose?" I asked. I gestured towards the bed for her to come sit. She came next to me and sat down hanging her head as she did.
"What?" She said grumpily. I looked surprised why was she so grumpy right now? 
"Hey what's up with you?" I asked confused.
"I like Nathaniel I think he's sweet" rose said like she knew everything.
"Max is a jerk" she said accusingly.
"Well don't be surprised if he gets with some one else who deserves him" I said.
"Yes I don't care, I want him to get with someone maybe Paige" she said before storming off. I turned to drift back off to sleep and than I woke up again. Miles had come in and layed down next to pearl, pearl eyes switched on and her hands wrapped around miles strong arms. She looked beautiful like usual even waking up her hair was perfect in a messy bun on her head. I envied it, hopefully soon enough I will find it with aspen. Aspen! I knew what I had to do, I threw on some clothes and headed out of the tent. I knew where aspens tent was but I had no clue if he would be up at 7 in the morning but I was guessing he would be. It took me a minute or two but I got there quickly. I didn't know how I could knock. So I walked in, thinking back it wasn't the best idea I've have but it came to my head. Luckily for me his sister was not there.  He was shirtless with some running pants on or something and he was brushing his teeth and he spat it out before looking at me. He was ripped when I say ripped I know you guys think oh good looking but no like the hottest guy you can think of. I knew I was blushing but I couldn't help it.
"Oh Rexta?" He said turning to face me. He grabbed a shirt off his bed and threw it on.
"Well I mean you've seen me wearing not much in the red dress, I guess it's even" I said trying to fill the silence, he just laughed and walked toward me.
"How can I help you?" He said royally. I knew this had to come I had four days left to win his heart than have a boyfriend. But I needed him for the last night so I only had three.
"I wanted to ask you, if you would go on a walk with me tonight?" I asked. He looked at me a bit amused and nodded.
"Yes, I suppose I can do that" he said a joke way.
I left him alone and walked back, we agreed to take a walk after the service. The rest of the day was boring, max was so sad he was devastated. I got ready early for the night meeting and was ready quick. I was wearing a dress that was Adventist but a bit you know out. Max was so sad, he loved rose but couldn't do anything about her and Nathaniel making out during the service. Thea had to go up the front doing well as usual. It finished quick and aspens eyes flickered to mine.
"You ready?" He whispered into my ear. He was wearing a red and white collage top and his hair was in messy curtains. He looked amazing tonight but I quickly reminded myself that I wasn't here for love I was here for revenge. Aspens eyes widened and he got up, I followed soon after. We started to walk outside of the tent and we marched down the road in mostly silence.
"So how is your 3 nearly four days been?" He asked looking at me with a cheeky smile.
"good, but I can't imagine it without you" I said trying to put my best flirtatious smile on. He chuckled to himself before replying.
"It's been pretty good to have you around too" he said his smile growing on his face. I had about 3 days to get him to be mine before I needed him as my boyfriend in two. We walked and talked for long time watching the wildlife and we enjoyed it. Well he looked like he did. He kept smiling or putting his hands in his pockets. We got to outside of my tent and he looked at me before leaning his head in and grabbed my neck sweeping me off my feet by kissing me. I know you guys are probably thinking it was awkward but it really wasn't he was good at it, very good. I turned around and moved towards the front of my tent.
"See you tomorrow" he said before walking off. The tent was pretty full. Miles was inside brushing the fly always of pearls hair, and Tye and tenai had ear phones in there ears listening or watching something. I fell on my bed and pulled the curtain around yearning for privacy. I caught a glimpse of Isabella scrolling on her kindle but Thea wasn't here visiting. My bed was warm and I squirmed inside of the blanket trying to find my comfortable position. I lay and between the faint laughs and muffled talking, I noticed something. I found aspen attractive and not only that I liked him. Like I wanted him. I stopped completely shunned.
