Just like how every morning starts, one of the counsellor's tiered voices blares through the speakers, telling us to get ready and go to the main hall. I sit up and stretch as I hear the cabin door behind me open. I look down beside me and realise that Robin is gone, I look through the cabin door and see that Robin is dragging Griffin out of bed. With the help of Billy and Collin. Axel comes out and sits on the stairs next to me.

"Fuck, I need new clothes..." I mumble to myself and Axel looks over at me. "I'll go with you." Axel sighs as he stands up stretching. "Okay." I smile. "See you at breakfast!" Robin shouts from over his shoulder. Both Axel and I walk over to our cabin and go inside. I go straight over to my bed and pull out my bag from underneath before unzipping it and taking out some clothes.

"I need a shower." I sigh as I smell my hair. It smelled like dirt almost. "Okay, do you want to go shower first and then I'll shower after?" Axel asks as he grabs his things from his bag. "Sure, I'll be out in ten," I say as I go to my desk and I get my towel out of my other bag. "Don't use all the hot water!" I hear Axel shout as I walk into the bathroom. I lock it shut before stripping out of my black pyjama pants and the hoodie that I've worn for the last three days or so. 

Gross.

I quickly get into the shower. I get under the water and grimace as all the dirt and grime wash off my body. When I'm done with everything I turn the water off and dry myself. When I'm done I wrap the towel around my waist and leave the bathroom.

I walk out and go to my bag, which is on my bed. "I'll be quick." Axel says while walking into the bathroom. I just nod before changing into some fresh clothes.

"Finney, you can go ahead to breakfast!" Axel yells to me from inside the bathroom. "Are you sure!?" I question from my spot on my bed. "Yeah, I'll be fine!" He shouts before I hear the shower turn on. I get up from my spot and make my way out of the cabin. I walk down to the main hall and grab some fruit and a pancake with some syrup and butter. I sit in my spot by Robin.

"Where's Axel?" Billy asks with a frown. "He said I could leave because he was taking a shower." I reply before taking a bite of my pancake. "Oh, okay." Billy nods. Robin grabs my free hand in his and strokes the back of my hand with his thumb which makes me smile. Griffin looks up and gives me a suggestive look but doesn't say anything.

Robin rolls his eyes at him before he takes a bite of his omelette. Soon Axel enters the main hall and grabs his breakfast before sitting next to Billy. Everyone chats with each other while I sit there and push around the pancake on my plate. I was absolutely petrified about the fact that my phone was left in the director's office. What if she found it and she went through it? What if she knows that we know what's going on? My anxiety was creeping up by the second.

"Breakfast is over!" A counsellor yells. All of us get up and throw away our leftover food and plates. I walk quietly behind the rest of the group and think. 

Maybe I should go and get it by myself just in case I get caught so then others don't get in trouble and it would just be me... 

"Finn! you coming with us to the lake?" Robin smiles looking back at me while the rest are walking ahead. "You guys go on, I'm gonna go get my phone." I smile.

"I'll come with you then." Robin says walking up to me. "No, you stay Robin, just in case I get caught, and I need to go clear my head anyways." I sigh. "What? No, we have to be with someone remember." He frowns at me. "I'll be fine Robin I promise, it's broad daylight and everyone is out and about." I comment. "Besides, right when I get it back I'll go straight to you guys okay?" I raise an eyebrow at him.

He sighs letting me know he's given up. I walk to him and give him a tight hug. "I'll be okay." I mumble into his chest. "Fine..." He sighs before pulling away and stroking my cheek. "Okay, now you go catch up with the group I'll be back in no time." I smile up at him. He nods, he looks like he wants to say something but before I can ask he smiles and pulls away to go catch up to the group. I linger there for a moment before I make my way towards the trail that leads to the main cabin. Unfortunately for me, the trail was completely empty, not a soul in sight.
