Youth Camp - A Leondre Devries Fanfiction

Chapter One

CHARLOTTE'S POV:
I wake up and I'm still missing Leondre. I look at phone with hope. Nothing. I sigh and get out of bed. Leondre and I can hardly ever text because he's busy with the tour and album. I met his friend Charlie. He seems nice. After the first month of Leondre being gone, I slipped back into depression. When we do get the chance to talk, I hide it from him. I don't want him to worry.. He was supposed to be back sometime this week with Charlie because the tour ended but I'm leaving for a 4 day, 3 night summer camp last today so I won't be able to see him until later on next week. I sigh again and take a shower and get dressed.
I have youth group tonight but I'm not looking forward it.. The girls there tease and bully me because I love One Direction, I'm dating Leondre and I'm not good at sports. At all. The only reason I still go, is because the boys there make me feel loved (in a friendly way). I don't have any friends that are boy. Because I'm honestly too shy to talk to them.
youth time
I sit in the car with my youth leader. He told me he would drive me to and from youth and church since my mom and I haven't spoken in forever. I'm staying at his house until Leondre gets back.
"You alright? You seem upset." He asks me. "No, I'm fine." I lie and smile at him. He sighs a he pulls in the parking lot. I open the door when he stops me. "What?" I asked. "Charlotte, you seem really upset. I don't believe that you're 'fine'.." He says. "I am." I insist.
Can he tell I'm lying? He looks at me for a while then he lets me go. We get out and I walk inside - the whole time, feeling like I'm walking to my doom. When I get in the room, I hear giggles and people looking at me - nothing new. Some of the guys were throwing balls, others were standing around. "Hey Char." This guy called Josh says as he smiles at me and walks over. "Hey Josh. How are you?" I asked. "Good, you?" He asked. "Fine." I said, hoping he'll believe it. Just ten, I spot someone across the room - Leondre and Charlie.
What are they doing here?
"You know them?" Josh asked, looking at me. "Yeah." I say softly and I put my books down on the edge of the stairs and walk over to them. I just stand there at first, behind them. Trying to wrk up the courage to talk to them. Suddenly Charlie smiles and points at me. Leondre turns around, confused at Charlie's reaction and he smiles and hugs me tightly. I hug him back. "I missed you." He said. "I missed you to." I said. I wanted to tell him everything but all that really happened was the bullying got worse and I had sunk back into depression. "How are you?" He asked. Charlie had gone off and started talking to Josh. "Fine, you?" I asked. I hated lying to him.. He doesn't deserve me.. "I'm great, now tat I've found you. Are you sure you're fine..?" He said, looking at me with a worried look. "Uh, yeah. Yeah I'm fine." I said. He looked for a while an I hoped he wouldn't ask any more questions.. Then he smiled again. I'm just glad you're here.." He said as he hugged me again. I hugged him back. I felt like crying. I just fought the tears.
We hugged for a while until youth started. When it was over, Charlie and I went over to Leondres house. We hung out until about midnight then Charlie and Leondre went to sleep. I tried to sleep, but I couldn't stop thinking. When we went to breakout a few hours ago, two girls there started laughing and teasing me because I hugged Leondre. One punched me and I knocked down as called names. I just tried to ignore it. I laid there, listening to music. Suddenly tears started coming. I didn't even try to stop them. Everyone's asleep, so it doesn't matter. They started coming faster and I tried my hardest to keep my crying low so I wouldn't wake anyone else up. I looked at the clock, 1 in the morning. I had to leave for camp tomorrow but I couldn't seem to stop crying. I heard Leondre or Charlie get up. He walked over to me and I could feel him standing over me and looking at me.
He knows I'm awake.
Crap.
I lay as still as possible. The tears still comming, but slower now. "Charlotte?" He whispers in my ear - obviously trying not to wake anyone up.
Charlie.
I jut laid there. He was still watching me and I felt rude completely ignoring him. "Y-yes?" I asked trying my hardest to stop crying. "What's wrong?" He asked. He seems worried. "Nothing. It's just.. This song makes me emotional." I said. It was one to make me emotional but not this emotional..
"You sure?" He asked. I wait for a few minutes. If I tell him the truth, would he tell Leondre? I don't know why, but I didn't want Leondre to know that I'm back in depression. "Uh.." I stall. I honestly didn't know how to answer. "I'll take that as a no." He says as he sits on my bed. I sit up and refuse to look at him. "What's wrong?" He asked, looking at me. "Nothing.." I lie as I wipe the tears from my face and fake as good as a smile I can at him. He just looks at me. I can't fake the smile anymore. If falls from my face and my eyes water up. I fight the tears as best as I can. They start falling but I wipe them away. He leans over and hugs me. "Do you need me to wake Leo?" He said in a little louder than a whisper. "No." I say quickly. He looks at me confused and we stop hugging. "Why not?" He asks. "I don't know.. I just.. I just don't want him to know I'm like this again." I said. "Please don't tell him." I say, finally looking at him. He looks worried but he nods. "Alright. But to have to promise me, you will tell him if it gets serious." He says. He looks stern. "Alright. I promise" I say. He nods. "Goodnight love." He said as he kisses me on the forehead and goes back to sleep. I sit there for a few minutes.
Am I really going to hide my biggest problem from the guy who saved me? I sigh as another tear falls.
I lay down. Just before I fall asleep, I look at my phone to check the time. 2 am. I just sigh lowly and end up slowly crying myself to sleep.
