I walked into cabin 3 with Mike. He was just another boy in my cabin. There were also 2 girls, they were on the top bunk of the bunk beds on the left of the room. They were laughing at whatever girls find so funny. Mike was sort of.. I don't know exactly. He wasn't the nicest but it's not like I care or anything. Maybe I do. I'm assuming neither of the girls would want to be my freind, and I'm assuming neither does Mike but I still wish I could have at least 1 friend. I don't say anything though. I wait for him to choose the bed he wants. He chooses the one across the room. I softly sigh and walk over to the bottom bunk. I sit down softly and hear it creek. I slip my backpack off my sore shoulders and put it on the floor next to my bed. I put the headphones to my walkman on my head and click the play button. I lay down on the creaky bottom bunk and just stare at the slightly shaky top bunk. I close my eyes and just relax for a few minutes. I could feel myself slowly slipping away.

I feel someone aggressively shaking my shoulder and a open my eyes slowly. I was met with Mike, he had a dull look on his face. "It's time to head to the mess hall" he said. I felt him lift his hand from my shoulder and the slight warmth it left. I saw him exit the cabin, not to far from the girls. I took the headphone part of my walk man off my head and rested it back on my neck. I sighed softly and dragged myself out of the comfy bed. I ran my fingers through my hair in attempt to quickly fix it. I then walked out, through the already open cabin door and I noticed the temperature change in the atmosphere, it was cooler then earlier. I reached for the handle of the cabin door and pulled it closed. I saw Mike and the girls heading towards the mess hall, along with other campers as well so I sped walked so that I wasn't too far behind them. I saw them enter the mess hall and I followed behind. I looked and saw the somewhat long line of kids waiting for there food. I sighed softly and walked over to get in line. I was behind Mike and some dorky kid wearing a baseball cap. They were talking and laughing. The line finally began to move and I saw as everyone in front of me got there food. I was finally getting mine. I saw one of the counselors, counselor.. Nancy I think? She smiled at me and used a shiny metal ladle to scoop up some tomato soup. She poured it into a bright red bowl and sat it on my tray. Then she grabbed a grilled cheese sandwich and sat it next to the bowl. "Get your juice and utensils at the end" she said. I smiled softly at her and then slid my tray down to the end. I grabbed a small plastic wrapped pack of utensils and a napkin, then setting it on my tray. Then I grabbed one of the small apple juice cartons and placed it on my tray as well. I remembered that one of the stupid rules was that you had to sit with your cabin during meals. I scanned the mess hall for the others in my cabin. I saw them, they were at a table towards the back. I walked over to them and sat down next to Mike on the oak wood picnic table. I distanced myself a few inches away from him. I stared at my food for a good 20 seconds. I wasn't really hungry. I glanced over to Mike to see him staring at his food. His hair was pretty messy but I looked kind of cute. I stop glancing at him and look back down at my food. I open up the small plastic wrapped pack of utensils and grabbed a plastic spoon. I just swirled it around in my soup for a few seconds. I glance over to Mike again and I make eye contact with him for a few seconds, I quickly look back at my food. I grab my grilled cheese and dip a corner of it into the soup. I bring it up to my mouth and bit the corner off. I chewed it and it wasn't as bad as I had expected. I decided to say something to Mike, it wouldn't be awful to have a friend. I turned to him and spoke "So uhm, why are you here?" I say quietly but loud enough for him to hear. He turns to me and begins "My sister's working here over the summer and my mom forced me to come with her" he said blandly and rolling his eyes. "Oh, same with me except my brother's working here" I said. "Oh uh- cool" he said. This wasn't going the best, typically I wouldn't say something like this but something came over me. "Uhm.. I don't know anyone here and I was wondering if maybe you wanted to be friends..?" I say, clear hesitation in my voice. I saw his face light up slightly and his dull expression finally leave. He smiled softly and shook his head "yeah sure" he said in a softer tone.
