What Happens at Fat Camp

Chapter 2

******Slide show of Carrie****** -------->

Meghan's P.O.V

My self confidence went up a whole other level from the laughs and cheers of my jokes.  I thought nothing more of it and walked into the guidance office. " Hi! I'm Mrs. Cambelle. You must be Meghan."

" Yea" I replied with a fake smile

" Okay by looking at your records you are really smart. But you were home schooled until now am I correct" she wouldn’t stop smiling it was actually getting creepy. I just nodded my head yes.

" Are you fitting in okay and making friends"  Did she even have to ask. I mean look at me, who wouldn't want to be friends with me.  My smile became real as I started talking about my self. 

" I fit in just fine, and I have plenty of friends" I assured her. 

" I see you have an great academic record but what about extra curricular?"

" Well  I like to play Lacrosse and Volleyball" I didn't start playing till this year. I had learned at fat camp but until  i was done with that i didn't play sports in public. 

"Great. We have an amazing  Lacrosse team here" she smiled. 

"Even though your in grade eleven are you thinking about colleges" suddenly my smile went away. 

" I don't know where I wanna go or what i want to be yet'   I replied

" That’s fine , if you need help with any thing at all you can come to me" 

" Okay" i fake smiled again and stood up.

"Bye" she  hollered after me as I left the door. The old me would have loved to talk about colleges  but now I'm thinking I'll be more of a model or actress. Even if I do go to college now  I don't  want to start planning yet. I'm only 17. 

I walked down the hallway, and went in the bathroom. I walked in as a few girls were washing there hands. I didn't know any of their names and I didn't need to,  When they saw me I looked them in the eye but they all put their heads down.  I checked my self out in the mirror. I looked good. i applied more lip gloss and fixed my shirt to show more cleavage. When i decided I look represent able I left and walked into class. 

" Mrs.Harrison, glad you decided to join us" Mr. Doble said i walked in and sat down. I sat dead centre of the room where everyone got a good look at me. Angie sat behind me and Scarlette in front. I didn't talk to any of the other losers in the class.  I never actually took the time to look around the class to see who was in it. i took a good look.  Behind me diagonally was a guy I flirted with yesterday in the hall but I didn't know his name. Random people sat all around me. The girl I ran into sat at the very front along with a scrawny boy with glasses. 

Carrie's P.O.V

When I finally got over the humiliation of  being called little miss piggy I hurried to class. I wasn't late. I walked in and was pointed to the only free seat. That’s the sucky part about joining a school late. I didn't mind to much though at least I didn’t have to make a fool of myself asking to sit beside someone.  i looked at the desk next to mine.

A pale skinny boy with glasses looked up at me. i felt like an elephant compared to him. I went to walk between the desk but I couldn't fit. Some people noticed and giggled to themselves. The skinny boy pulled the desk farther out for me. I could feel my face turn red as I blushed. 

" I'm David" The skinny boy spoke to me

" Hi, I'm Carrie" is said as I  Iet out a small wave. Which i wish i never did.  Way to ruin a first impression. get caught between the desks and then do a stupid wave. No wonder you have no friends, I thought to myself. the teacher got up and left the room to take attendance to the office. 

"  So your new here. Why did you move to Eastwood?"

" It's kind of a personal question don't you think" i smiled at him not trying to be rude. 

" Not really, you could have just made up a lame reason"

" Oh" I felt rude so I decided I would tell him.

" When I was little my mom and dad got divorced. My mom got me and my dad got my brother. My dad and brother moved here and my mom and I stayed in our old town. That was until my dad got called out on a 6 month business trip. So my mom and I came here to look after my brother."

I explained to him hoping he wouldn't think I was to weird. 

" Wow" was his first response." So how old is your brother?” he soon added

" My brother and I are twins. Although we are nothing alike. for instants I grew up with not so much money and he is rich. he's a boy, and I'm a girl. He is athletic and well I am me. It seemed like I blurted out my whole life story just to a  boy I sat beside for  two minutes in Law. The teacher came back and put a note on the smart board. We were all copying quietly when we heard the door open.  It was Maggie, or I guess Meghan now. 

 " Mrs.Harrison, glad you decided to join us" Mr. Doble welcomed her. She walked and sat down in her seat. She walked in like she owned the place. In the eyes of her peers she probably did.  As soon as she sat down she looked around giving the death glare. Eventually she realised we were actually doing work and asked a guy next to her for paper and pencil. This Maggie seemed different  especially compared tot he one I met at fat camp. 

****Flash Back****

" Hi, I'm Maggie what’s your name?"  I looked to see an overweight girl, with an ugly colour of  short brown hair.

" I'm Carrie" I replied Maggie responded by hugging me and then running off  to say bye to her mom. 

Through the first week we were connected at the hip . until they actually had to separate us cause we were talking to much and not working out.

******Present*****

David must have caught me looking back at Meghan. " Don't worry about what she said earlier" he tried to make me feel better. the truth was I actually forgot about it until now. 

" I won't I don't take anything Maggie says seriously" Whoops I covered my mouth hoping that David didn't here me call her Maggie. 

" What did you just call her? " David asked 

"Nothing" I insisted David shrugged and let it go. We just  sat there in awkward silence working for the rest of the period.
