Isabella's pov;
Third day of the camp,
After finishing breakfast, Ms Devlin announced, "Since you went hiking and played scavenger hunt these two days, you would have known the outline of mount diablo by now so today we will be going on a field trip up the mountain which is the sole purpose we came here for. Note that every plant within the park is protected so collecting or destroying anything inside the park, including mushrooms, is prohibited so take things you need to note down like a note and a pen and when you're ready with your things, gather at the big rock at 8 am sharp." And left.
Sophia shook me and asked, "Why are you still standing here? Come on, let's go to the tent and grab our things."
I gave a nod and followed her to the tent. How could she be so normal like nothing happened? Is it because it happened many months ago? Did time really help us to be strong? But, still, losing someone close to our heart... Argh! If i was there in her shoes, I'm sure i would have struggled in trauma right now.
"Hey!"
I came back to reality and asked Sophia, "Huh? What were you saying?"
"What were you thinking about?"
"N-Nothing. Let's go." And walked to the tent.
She held my hand and asked me, "You seem odd since the morning. Is something bothering you?"
I smiled at her while saying, "You're proving everytime that you can see through me well, right? Let's get our things first." and continued walking to the tent.
After a while, everyone gathered in the place where Ms Devlin mentioned.
I asked Noah who was looking into his phone, "Where's Liam? Why can't I see him around?"
"He's in his tent. Sleeping."
"Sleeping? Why is he still sleeping in a tent and not being here?"
"He's sick."
"Sick of who?"
He gave me a smirk and said, "He's ill."
"How?"
He let out a sigh and said, "He got sick since he came back from scavenger hunt and he took medicines so he's taking rest in the tent. Probably he'll join us for lunch. And, don't ask me further questions since I've been answering every one in this class since last evening."
"Sorry."
I turned to Sophia and said, "Watch my spot. I'll be back in a minute."
"Where are you going?"
"To see Liam."
"But Ms Devlin is going to be here any minute."
"I'll be back. If she's here before I return, go with her. I'll catch up with you guys later." And walked to Liam's tent.
I stood in front of Liam's tent and asked, "Um, it's Bella here, can I come inside?"
While I was waiting for his permission, Harry came out of nowhere and asked, "Why aren't you with the others?"
I ignored him and tried to lift some portion of Liam's tent in the front but Harry held my hand and stopped me from doing it. I snapped his hand and asked, "What are you doing?"
He asked me back, "What about you? What were you trying to do to someone else's tent?"
"It's Liam's tent. Not someone else. And don't sound like I'm barging in."
"Why are you trying to go inside?"
"Argh! What do you want with me?"
"I want you to like me back." And left.
