Taking All the Right Steps
Chapter 1:Hit the Road

Finally !
Finally !
Finally !
I can't believe he's letting me go.
My dad is actually letting me go to camp !
After, my whole 'this is my last Summer before senior year than I go to collage' speech didn't work,
I went for the good old 'do everything your family asks you to do without complaining ' thing.
I even did all my chores.
Still nothing, but before I gave up I did the one thing I know for sure no man on earth could ever say no to...
I did my puppy dog eyes,...
add a little pout, ...
maybe some guilt tripping,...
a dash of whining and...
a whole lot of begging......while shedding a couple of tears
My dad was hook lined and sinkered
Now I know what your thinking....I sound spoiled, but in reality I'm not. To tell you the truth I was kinda surprised my parents even listened to me since they usually ignore me.
Sometimes I even feel like I'm not even part of the family. You wouldn't think so either if you looked at our last family Christmas card.
Let me paint a picture for you :
My dad is blue-eyed, light skinned, and blond. My mom is green-eyed, fair skinned, and blond. Oh and don't forget my Mr. Oh - So - Perfect older brother, Rain, who is... yeah you guessed it blue-eyed, perfectly tan skinned, and -oh surprise surprise - blond.
Then there's me, plain brown eyes, olive skinned and, wavy brown hair that occasionally frizzes up.
Sometimes I think I'm adopted but everytime I bring it up my parents laugh it off like its the funniest thing in the world, tell me that my deceased "great grandmother" once had brown hair "just like mine", and then quickly change the subject.
Anyways... back to my exciting news. So after all my work, my father gave in. Hmmm I guess the saying is true hard work really does payoff.
I can't believe I am FINALLY going to camp.
After about Three years of practically begging EVERY SINGLE YEAR they probably got tired of it-( and boy do I got a mouth on me ).
Oh course not just any camp.
Uh-uh
I, Natalie Victory Summers , am going to the camp where stars are born ...
Star Rockers of Song and Dance camp.
Star Rockers is a very well known camp well more like school since you have a whole schedule with different classes that range from history of Dance to How to Manage a Band. Of corse there are the fun classes too like Starlight Dance and Spotlight Magic. Those classes I are what I'm looking forward to the most.
..
I run up the stairs to my room in a daze. I'm moving so fast i barely have time to twist the doorknob avoiding what could have been a very sad and retarded display, and rush into my room looking for my suitcase in a frantic search, a silly grin on my face the whole time. You could practically see the waves of excitement that were emitting off my body.
It felt like I was ridding a unicorn in a sea of rainbows!

Luke P.O.V.
" Hey Luke all packed to go to S.R." said Ace, my best friend and beta.
S.R. being Star Rockers the dance camp the teens in my pack went to every year since we could remember. The camp actually used to belong to my mom but when she got killed by rouges my dad gave it to me. To be honest I always loved dancing so I was really happy when my dad decided to give it to me and not sell it .
Actually the whole pack liked to dance so everyone in the pack always either helped out or attended it. I wish it was just for my pack, but to earn more money we decided to let humans enroll too. The dance camp soon became well known and that was all thanks to ME!
Yeah, yeah I sound sooooo selfish well it's not like it isn't true. I literary did put in all my sweat, blood, and someother strange liquids I prefer not to bring up into that
camp.
So yes, I have a invisible permit to be selfish and say that all that was all me, me, ME.
" Dude I've been packed since the first day school started " I said .
So as you can see I hate school and me looking foward to going to camp every year is the only thing that gets me throughout the school year.
Anyways we were currently loading all our stuff needed to head over to the camp.
Ace, James, Todd, Terry, and I were all going to car- pool together to S.R. since it was a long way there.
" Haha, okay well then let's hit the road guys," Ace shouted as he jumped into the passenger seat, claiming shotgun.
Everyone else soon follows shouting and hooting a chorus of " yeah" and "let's do this", me of course getting into the drivers seat of my old beat-up dark blue jeep.
Slipping on my shades I echo out the exact same words Ace said ( but way cooler) " Let's hit the road guys!"
