"Did you get your camp email?" Luke shouted through the phone.

"Stop shouting! Yes, my mom received it ten minutes ago."

"I can't wait!"

"Luke! Stop it."

"Fuck it, Elle. We'll be having fun there," he said, laughed.

"Oh my god, Luke. You cursed! You're just 10!"

"Who cares?" he said. I could hear him rolling his eyes.

"I do.. I won't go if you don't stop cursing," I warned.

"What the he- fine then," he said, sighed.

"Promise me, Luke."

"Yeah, I promise, Elle."

"Elly! Lucas is here!"

Mom yelled from downstairs. I was packing my stuffs for the camp. When I was done packing, I zipped my bag and walked downstairs. I see Luke was standing in the hallway in his blue button up shirt and black slack. His blue eyes searching for mine.

"We are going to camp, not school dance," I said, laughed.

"Who the f-who cares,"he said, laughed nervously.

"You say the word and I'll unpack my stuffs," I said.

"Okay okay.. I won't."

I turned to my mom and hugged her. I walked to Luke's mother minivan and put my bag inside. His mom, Alice hopped off the car and started to talk with my mom.

"No! mom, we're going to be late! No chatting! After you send us then you both can chat until the summer ends!" he yelled from the passenger side. I hit his head with my palm.

"Rude!" I said.

"Ow..." he cried in pain.

This camping thing was great. I have new friends; Tamara and Jess. They both are my tent mates. Luke has his own tent mates; Bobby and Louise. Days passed by and we all had a lot of fun; flying-foxing, hiking and other outdoor activities. Today is the last night of the summer camp before we all pack our stuffs and go back home. My team; Tamara, Jess and I were in charged for secure our territory. It supposed to be two teams; mine and Luke's but he and his team are nowhere to be seen. I was talking to Tamara when Jess started to yell something.

"Elly, watch out!"

I was about to turn my back to Jess when something get thrown on my head. I swear to god it smells stink and phew, smelly as hell. It was Dolly's poop, Miss Lola's cat. I heard Luke and Louise laughed out loud and Miss Lola walked out from her tent hurriedly.

"What's going on?" she asked.

"Oh my dear," she said once she saw what really happened. She washed my hair for freaking ten times and the smell still there; on my head. I don't know why he did to me like that so I cried. I went back home with Miss Lola since I asked her to send me herself-instead of Luke's mom minivan.

Then, here we go.

New message from : Alice (Lucas' mommy)

Alice (Lucas' mommy)
Rosa belle, I've heard about it. How's Elly now?

Rosa belle (Elly's mommy)
She's fine. Her hair is still smelly.

Alice (Lucas' mommy)
Oh.. I'll visit you both soon. I'll bring Lucas to apologize to her.

Rosa belle (Elly's mommy)
I don't think she wants to see him now. Well, kids things.

Alice (Lucas' mommy)
I hope her hair can be done ASAP.

Rosa belle (Elly's mommy)
I think she needs a new haircut.

Alice (Lucas' mommy)
That's terrible.

Rosa belle (Elly's mummy)
Yeah... what did Miss Lola gave to her cat until her poops smelled like that? haha

Alice (Lucas' mommy)
haha. I have no idea, Rosa belle.

Rosa belle (Elly's mommy)
Gtg, Elly is crying again.

I've been Luke's friend since we both were five and he never did such a thing to me-I mean like this kind of thing. I don't know what's his problem and why me. Since that night, it was the first time I had a really really weird dream of Luke Hemsworth.

"A girl can dream."

His eyebrows rose. "Is that what you dream about? Being with me?"

"Mostly. Addition, forever."

I don't know if that's really me and Luke or not because that time, that girl looked pretty; shoulder-cut hair, perfect body and tall while the guy that she's talking to is perfect; perfect hair, perfect blue eyes, perfect face and everything's perfect. They both looked pretty much like us; just that I'm here-average, nerdy and short while Luke is just like yeah, normal; blue eyes and normal. That time is exactly at the familiar place; the place that I want to spend my time with my 'prince charming'.

I woke up and relieved that it was just a dream. The next day, we both are good and I told him about my dream. He says that he will never going to like me and I say me either and we both back to be strangers.
