No Other Girl (Midnight Red Fan Fic.)

29 - Camping Trip (Part 2)

The next morning I was woken by the Tarzan call. Anthony. I got up and stretched. Thomas was still sound asleep. He looked so precious. I didn't feel like waking him up so I exited the tent quietly to join everyone else.

They were already dressed and whatnot, chilling by the died out fire.

"Hey sleeping beauty!" Julie yelled when she seen me.

"What time is it?" I asked squinting. The sun was so blinding.

Colton checked his watch. "It's about to go on 12."

"Already?" I always did love sleeping in.

"Yea. What were you and Thomas doing last night?" Joey snickered.

"Whatever it was it definitely tired them both out." Eric joked.

"You guys are disgusting." I said flatly.

They all laughed.

"Oh hey here comes Thomas!" Anthony yelled.

I turned to see his hair all over the place and eyes brighter then ever when in the sun.

"Morning guys." he greeted.

Everyone said their mornings.

"What are we planning on doing today guys?" Joey asked rubbing his hands together.

We all looked at each other.

"Hiking?" Julie suggested.

"Sounds fun." I said.

"Hiking it is then!" Joey announced.

On that note I started to get ready. I made Julie come with me to the bathroom.

"So how'd you sleep?" she asked.

I had just finished brushing my teeth. "Wonderful. What about you?"

"Good I guess." She sounded a little upset.

"Spill it."

She sighed before answering. "It's just these are the last few days I have with Anthony. They're going by way to fast."

I hugged her. "I know your pain."

She sniffled.

"Don't cry." I pulled away from her wiping the tear that fell on her cheek. "The last thing we'd want is the boys for us to be bummed out. So smile."

She gave me a huge smile.

"There it is." She made me want to cry.

We were both in the same exact situation with our relationships. I knew I had to be the stronger person. But honestly I think that tough chick act was wearing off.

"Could you guys be any slower?!" Julie yelled from the top of the hill.

I was almost there. Thomas behind me. I didn't even know how the rest of the guys were doing.

I did a little victory dance once I reached the top. Thomas crawled the rest and sat down. I sat down next to him.

"Hey look at what I picked up on the way up here." he revealed in his hand a small daisy.

"How sweet Thomas." I took it and kissed him on the cheek. "Thank you." I placed the flower in my hair.

Once all of the boys made it up the hill we took in the awesome view.

"I'm king of the world!" Joey shouted scaring a couple of birds in a nearby tree.

I couldn't stop looking at the lake. It was shining in the distance. Nothing like L.A. and nothing close to Frisco. I've always loved quiet environments but I don't think I could ever live in one.
