I wake up to the annoying beeping of my alarm and I roll over and smack the button a few times on my phone to shut it up.
I couldn't be bothered to check my phone so I'd look when we got to camp to avoid socialising.
Then my dad walks into my room and looks at me like I've lost my mind
"Why are you not up yet?!"
"I just woke up?"
"Well get dressed and grab a granola bar on the way out, I'll take your stuff out"
He grabs my bags and leaves the room, fucking christ I do not want to do this. After contemplating life for a few seconds I sit up and change out of my pyjamas, I sit on the floor and put my converse on. I had scribbled all over them so there was barely any bare fabric left. After I tied them I got up and left my room.
I grab a granola bar and head out the door, Dad is leaning on the drivers side door, I swear we aren't even late.
"Dad if anything we are going to be early" I roll my eyes. "Well you can get a head-start on making friends" He pointed out.
I roll my eyes at him once again and get in the passenger seat and start eating my granola bar, as we drive I try to ignore the worry in my head about being away from my dad for the first time in two years. I wasn't gonna let any of these kids see me scared though, maybe if I just get caught up in what's going on I won't worry at all.
Eventually after staring out the window with my headphones blasting my music my dad taps my shoulder making me jump and make my headphones hang round my neck, "Come on Alexis we're here" he acknowledged. I look straight ahead and see the dock.
I also see a guy in a red shirt and some khaki shorts, he also had a yellow headband on making his hair stick up, he was looking at a clipboard, most likley going over campers names. I see standing nearby four kids stood around, one boy and three girls. And to the left of them was another boy throwing up over the side of the dock. This was gonna be a long week.
"come on, I'll walk you down"
He got out the jeep and shut the door, causing the other kids to look in our direction, my anxiety kept filling up as time went on and I followed behind him with my backpack on and phone in hand, my headphones starting to irritate my neck and my hair falling into my eyes as I walked with my head down behind my dad.
"Dave, whats up my man!"
Dave. I don't think my dad has mentioned him before but they seem to be friends.
