We are all gathered around the fire, it is dark and the stars are out. We have had somevery serious discussions and debates, for example is goofy a dog? Gordie had recentaly come up with a new story, so we were now listening to gordie tell the gross story of "David ' lard ass' Hogan".

Well my summary of the story would be 'there was lots of vomit', I mean overall it was a pretty good story. And perfect for camping by ourselves in the dark. Not scary at all, I know there will be scary stories at some point tonight butttttt I don't need them right now.

If you are wondering, me and Teddy have made up, well it's more like this: He will say hi and I will sat hello back. Now don't go thinking it will be some enemies-to-lovers situation because it definitely wont. For starters, Im not in some fantasy world where that shit happens, and anyways I already have eyes for a different boy.

"Guys should we organise where we are going to sleep?" I ask, even though I don't have anywhere to sleep.
"Uhh sure, by the way where are you going to sleep?" Chris questions.
"What do you mean where will she sleep?" Verns sleepy voice asks
" well when she fell in the water she had her bag, and you know when bags go in water they get wet, and then that water seeps through onto her sleeping bag!" Chris says sarcasticly.
"Yeah, yeah, what ever." He rolls his eyes

"Okay now that Vern understands how water makes things wet, where am I going to sleep?"

Before anyone could say anything a loud howl echoed through their makeshift campsite.

"It's the bower kids ghost!" Vern yelled huddling up to Teddy.

" sounds like a woman screaming" gordie says.

"Nah its probably just coyotes"
"Only coyotes?!" I yell, trying to discreetly snuggle up to Chris. Thankfully he noticed and pulled me closer.

"We should take turns watching"
"Sure"
"Sounds good"
"Who goes first?"
"I can" Teddy says.

We watch as he takes the gun from Chris and then makes his way over to a tree.

We have nearly gotten to sleep when we suddenly hear Teddys booming voice echo around the campfire.

" Corporal Teddy Duchamp on duty. No sign of the enemy!"

We all woke up to see Teddy pacing back and fourth.

"Shut up Teddy, can't you see we're trying to sleep?" Gordie yells.

A few moments had passed, all we could hear was teddys pacing. Thar was untill.

" the dog faces rested easy. Knowing that Corporal Teddy Duchamp was protecting them all."

"You talk one more time and I'm taking that gun and shooting you with it." Chris yells.

Time skip:

Hours later, the sun began to rise and the warmth of its rays peeked through the trees, the birds were singing and the sun had risen by the time I had awoke. I stared out infront of me trying to hear if anyone else was awake. Slowly I turned my head, I could feel someone's warm arms around me.

My arms were wrapped tightly around Chris's waist. I can't believe it- we had been hugging while asleep!

I quickly pulled away flusttered and nervous, butterflies erupting in my stomach. I sat up trying not to wake him up.
Looking over to chris who was still fast asleep with a slight smile on his face, I smile to my self hoping none of the boys had seen.
