Drew's Diaries

Will, It's Time To Shine!

Dear Diary,

Last night was so crazy. Night seven was when things really started happening here at the motel. I don't mean that in a bad way, I'm fifteen, but this experience has changed me so much already. I just hope people like this new me, cause I plan to stay like this for a while. 

Now, it was just me, Will, and Nick staring at our bedroom window outside the motel, waiting to see which two campers would get off the bus. First came out the woman dressed as a scout, then a young lady who looked like a cowgirl. I immediately thought of what Will said about that Ashley girl he described and realized something. "Hey, isn't that Ashley?" I wrote. "It is..." Will said, his eyes glowing. "Oh god, not Lill." Nick said, looking down. "Who, the Girl Scout? What's wrong with her?" I wrote to him. 

"She was who I believe burned me and Ashley's stuff."

"But, I don't think she would do that." Will said. "She's just as nice as her."

Nick shrugged, then went away from the window to think about who could've burned their stuff.

Will looked at me, a bit scared. "Um, Drew? Remember that advice you wrote to me that I should talk to Ashley after getting eliminated?"

I nodded

"Well, I may have a bit of a crush on her, actually. But I don't want to push that on her yet. I just want to get to know her more."

Jeez. Romance, despite me being FRENCH, was not my strong suit. Although, I feel like talking and bonding to people more not only helps with friendships, but romance, too.

I did a thumbs up in agreement. Then we waited for the two girls to finish with the producers before they headed inside to check in. I immediately got Will put out of the room to talk to Ashley. He was nervous, I could tell, but I reassured him with my handwriting that it was worth it.

It does seem a little odd to me that I'm the only person on the teal team here. How does that other team keep losing people? I thought that my team was uncoordinated since one of the boys voted for me. Regardless, it's just a thought.

Half an hour after I got Will out there to talk to Ashley, he returned with a big smile on his face. "What happened?" Nick asked.

"She said she wants to get to know me more, and to help me with my fears!"

"I told you bonding would be helpful!" I wrote to him. He thanked me before sitting down on the bed.

Nick sighed. "I don't know what I'm supposed to do. I've never really had socialization besides my parents and all the workers in my mansion. How should I know when to ask Lill about, if she burned my stuff or not?"

I quickly wrote "Let's wait until tomorrow for that. You should think about that just like you did when you first came here."

"Ok. Thanks, kid." Nick replied.

Tomorrow would be the beginning of something I have no idea what will feel like yet.

Your friend, 

Drew
