"I'm just kidding" I said "I don't even know when it is so how can I say no". I look at Kat and she looks really mad. "That's not funny" said Kat. "I'm sorry but you know me always sarcastic" I said. "I know" said Kat. "So when is it?" I ask. "It's in two weeks, it's going to be Friday the 18 and Saturday the 19th and we come back Sunday the 20th" said Kat. I look at her with a smile. "I also pay for everything" said Kat "I was saving that money to buy you the ps3 you always wanted but with this we'll have a lot of fun" said Kat. "I want to cry, thank you so much, you're the best girlfriend ever"  I said to Kat with a smile and watery eyes. "Let me just ask my mom if it's okay" I said laughing. "You're so funny" said Kat "you haven't asked for her permission in 3 years". "You know me so well" I said. "you better come" said Kat. "well you know I never been camping before so this is my first time" I reply. I texted my mom and told her I was going camping. I also texted my manager I needed those days off. "Well sense we are not doing anything this weekend would you like to go to the movies?" I ask Kat. "Sure, which movie?" Ask Kat. "Any movie as long as we go together" I said. I have to work but I'm usually off on Sunday and Wednesday because I don't like my days off together. "You got to pick another day off because I need you to work on Sundays because you gotta help me open the store or close it which ever my shift is" said my manager. "Sure, then I want off Saturdays" I said. "But I still need those days off" I said. "I know" said my manager. I went to work, I wish I was rich and didn't have to work plus I can spend all the time with Kat I want. That will never be life. I went home. "Can I call you" said Kat in a text. "Sure" I reply. My phone started ringing. I answer. I don't like talking on the phone but Kat does so I have to do it for her. We been talking for 3 hours and it's now 3 am and I have run out of things to say. I remember that I been paying a 3 diamond engagement ring for. "How would you like for your engagement ring to look like?" I ask. "I don't care because what matter is the thought not how much money it is or how many carrots it has" said Kat. "I would like to have 2 children a girl first then a boy and you?" I ask. "maybe 3 it don't matter to me just not more then that" reply Kat. I feel so bored and I have run out of things to ask. I'm looking at the time and it's 4:18 am. "if we get kidnap and they ask you to choose me or death. who would you pick?" I ask. "you answer first" said Kat. "I will always choose" I did a pause thinking carefully on what to say next. I already knew the answer but this way is more fun. I thought in my head. "death because I can't live with out you" I reply. "But you don't have to answer" I said. There is an awkward silence. I was hoping she would answer. "It's 5 am and I work at 10 am so I'm going to try to sleep for 3 hours" I said. "Are you mad at me" said Kat. "No I'm not, good night and I love you" I said as I quickly hang up. I'm laying here really bored and I can't sleep. I only have an hour to get to work and I haven't sleep at all and now I gotta get ready for work. I forgot to ask for the weekend of camping off from work so today is the last day I can ask for those days off. I got to work clock in and went straight to my manager to ask for the days off. "Hey, I need a favor, I need next weekend off?" I ask my manager. "It's too late now, I already made the schedule" answer the manager which her name is Danielle. "Okay thank's" I reply. I guess I'm not her favorite anymore. I went to work really mad. I just wanted to go home but I know she wont let me because I run this place for her and she doesn't do crap but I guess that's why she puts me to work with her. I still have 4 hours left and I gotta come up with a good reason why I can't go camping. My shift is about to end and I still haven't come up with a good excuse why I can't go camping. My phone is ringing and Kat is calling. "Hello" I said. "Would you like to go somewhere tonight?" Ask Kat. "Sure, I'm leaving work now and I'm going to go home shower and then I'll pick you up in like 30 minutes" I said. "Don't go home and come pick me up at work" with a pause "I just got out too and I don't want to call my mom" said Kat. "Okay, but where do you work?" I ask kinda mad but more disappointed. "McDonald in Carle place" Responded Kat. "Ok, I'll be there soon" I said and hang up. Why didn't she tell me she has a job and why is she working with her x-boyfriend. I don't even want to hang out with her anymore but now I have too. This is my excuse not to go camping. I'm going to get really mad and I'll be mad still then is a week away I can do this. "I'm outside" I texted Kat. She came out and went in the car. "Where do you want to go?" I ask. "Anywhere" answer Kat. "Okay" I answer as I'm driving away from her job towards my house. "so we going to your house" ask Kat. "well you say anywhere" I reply. "I want to go some where new" reply Kat. "okay" I said. I kept driving towards my house. We passed my house. "where are we going" ask Kat. "a new place" I answer. I driving for more then 20 minutes. It's been so quiet. "we are almost there" I said, breaking the silence. "there is nothing to here, it's boring" answer Kat. "well you got to have a open mind" I did a pause " it's by looking not doing" I say. "ok" say Kat. The road came to an end and I went to left and I stop. I didn't say anything at all, I just look at the beautiful view of the state of Connecticut. I drove half a block down and now I see Manhattan, the empire state building, I really like this view every time I see it but Kat looks like she's not having fun at all. I started driving towards Kat house. "I know your mad at me" said Kat breaking the silence. I started driving towards port Washington bay. It's a really pretty place where you can fish and take a water taxi and walk around and they also have movie night. " I'm not mad, I'm more like disappointed" I reply. "I know, I'm sorry" say Kat. "Being sorry, doesn't mean anything" I did a pause "what is done is done" I said. There was a big silence. I didn't want to fight so I didn't bring anything up but I'm sure she knows I'm furious. a phone started ringing I took out my phone and it wasn't mine so Kat took out her phone and it's her mom calling. We run to the car got inside and turn on the car and then she answer the phone. I started driving towards her house as she lie to her mom of where she was. she hang up the phone so I turn on the radio. I had dedicated a song to Kat. just the way you are from Bruno mars. This song came is playing in the radio and I know it by heart so I started singing it. Kat was going to grab my hand but I put both hands in the steering wheel. I felt bad so then I put it down and she try again and we just started holding hands. we are near her house. "I can't find another job and they are going to pay me really good there" said Kat. "I'm not mad that you have a job, I'm mad that you didn't tell me that you where working there but I'm over it because at the end of the day it doesn't matter anyways" I reply as I stop in front of her house. she just walk out didn't even say bye. I don't mind if you ignore me but then don't act like nothing happen when you do feel like talking to me. If I ignore you then I will apolize and it becomes your choice whether to talk to me or not. I drove home and I went to take a shower, got out of the shower. I look at my phone and I have six miss calls from Kat. My phone is on silent mode. "hello" I said. "why didn't you answer" said Kat. "I'm busy got to go" I said as I'm hanging up the phone. she ignores me then she's going to ask me why I don't pick up the phone, that is funny, oh well now she's going to be mad. She deserves it for ignoring me. She's going to feel like I hate her but I reply so that shows I don't hate her. It's just that everything wont go  back how everything was before. first she needs to apologize for ignoring me then I'll think about whether everything is normal or not. In 7 days is the trip to go camping and they put up the schedule today. I went to work and the first thing I did is look at my schedule and I'm off the days of the camping trip. I finish work and went home. I saw a text from Kat so I open it "hi". I still don't see an apology from Kat so I'm going to make her wait. 3 hours pass by and I answer back "hi". "why have you been ignoring me" reply Kat. "what are you talking about" I reply. "nothing" reply Kat. I went to sleep. I have to work all this days so I can be off on the weekend. It's now Thursday and there is only one day left still I go camping. I have too work all day but then I got to go home and pack for 4 days worth of cloth. It's 9 pm and I'm running out of work to go pack because I leave at 7 am to the camping trip. I am home and it's time to pack. I really suck at packing but I have too try my best. I pack everything and now I'm going to sleep because I got to wake up at 6 am. It's 2 am and I can't sleep. I need to sleep because I don't know what time I'll be going to sleep later. It's four am and I still can't sleep. My alarm is going off and I guess I slept less then 2 hours, I hope I don't fall a sleep on the way there in the car with Kat and her family. I got ready and drove to Kat house. I got there and I went to dunking donuts first so I finish my food and coffee in the car before I went in. I rang the bell and Kat answer the door and she gave me a kiss in the mouth. "why did you take so long to go in" ask Kat. "how do you, never mind, I was nervous and I was waiting for it to go away" I reply. I went inside and left my bag in the door where the rest of them where. They are eating. "would you like to join us"  said Kat mom. "sure" I reply. we all ate and then we went to their car. I'm not allowed to drive there so they have too drive me.  Kat grandma is here so we are taking the long way there so she can see the city. It's been 3 hours sense we been driving and Kat needs to use the bathroom. after driving for an hour we stop at a gas station and Kat is really mad because she's wearing white shorts. I'm confuse on that but I don't ask about those things to girls. after 20 minutes we got back in the car and started driving again. it's been 3 hours and we are finally at the place. I help set up the tent which 6 of us are slipping in this tent so it's really big. it took us 2 hours to set up this tent for 10 people. "the food is ready" said Kat grandma is Portuguese. we ate and we just sat there and did nothing all afternoon. It's like 6 pm and Kat jump in the river next to us and so I follow her and her mom got mad and told Kat to get out. we sat there still 8 pm. "It's time to  go to sleep" said Kat mom. we all got up and went to sleep. I have problem sleeping so I can't sleep but I have too so I'm going to pee. the bathroom is a little far from us. I went and when I came back I saw Kat step sister, step brother, sister and brother in law sitting out side playing cards and I decided to stay and play with them. they all went to sleep and I'm waiting for the fire to go out which it will be soon. "my mom said for you to go to sleep so she can go too" said Kat. who does she think she is. I said in my head. I got up and went in with Kat inside the tent. I woke up the next morning and my phone is dead and I can't check the time but today is the day we are going canoeing all day so it should be fun. we got in the car, and just the young people are going and we drove for more then 30 minutes before we got to the right place. I wanted to go on one that it was for two people but Kat said no. we got one for half of us. we are sitting down listing to instruction. "why didn't you tell me you where playing cards and talking last night" said Kat. "because I didn't want to wake anyone up after I walk out and I didn't know how else tell you" I reply. "w. e." reply Kat. when one of us said that then it was a really big deal and a big fight is coming. I stood in silence because it's not the right place to do this. we are getting in the boat well I honestly don't know the name but we starting going on the water and we have to paddle all the way down. It's been 3 hours and we are still on the water and I don't think we are half way there. Two of the people that where with us they went by them self. one of them fell so we stop the boat and I jump out and so did Kat. "get back on it you might get hurt" I said. "I can do it" reply Kat. Then Kat limp, I knew something was wrong but I don't want to make a big deal so I stood quiet. I stop the boat. Kat jump inside the boat while I stood out side still holding the boat. I saw Kat leg and she's bleeding. I didn't want to say anything but I look behind me and I saw that the rest of the people are coming back from helping one of the guys that fell on the single boat. after two hours, Kat and her step brother where tired of being in the boat so they got off and they started walking because people told us we where very close. after 20 minutes we got to the place and Kat is still not talking to me. "you left me behind so I guess we are even" I said to Kat. "what ever" reply Kat. we are in the bus on our way back to the car to go back to the camp site and I realize that it's 2 pm. I feel so tired and I hope they let me take a Nap. we got in the car and drove back to the camp site and we ate and I went inside the tent and Kat and her step brother follow me into the tent. I laydown and Kat is in my head well we made a straight line heads to heads but not touching. I felt a sleep. I been awaken to someone screams and is Kat mom. she said something in Brazilian that I didn't understand. I saw Kat got up and went to the other side of the tent.  I feel so tired so I went back to sleep. I woke up before the other two and I'm still very upset on Kat mom attitude. it really got to me and made me cry and Kat and her sister found me crying. "well now you have seen me cry" I said to Kat. I went back in the tent and fell a sleep again. the next day came and today is the day we leave. we pack everything and left. The way home should be less hours because we are not taking the long the way. After 3 hours we got to Kat house. I'm texting my mom and telling her I'm back. Kat's mom and her grandma went to the laundry and her step dad and brother are upstairs watching a movie and me and Kat are down stairs. Kat got on top of me and after 15 minutes we hard someone walking down the stairs and it's Kat stepdad and she jump off me and she got really worried because it's going to cause a lot of trouble if he saw us. I was pretty sure that he hadn't seen us but Kat was unsure. It's now 8pm and I'm starting to say bye to everyone. "Would you like to stay and have dinner with us" ask Kat mom. "Sure" I reply. Now I gotta be here for more then an hour. I ate and now I'm saying bye to everyone. I'm in the car driving home. I got home and I have no text from Kat. 3 days have pass by and Kat still hasn't texted me. I wonder if I did something wrong in camp and that's why Kat is not texting me back. I'm going to cvs and buying a card. A card that is about missing you. "I miss talking you. I miss texting you. I miss that you always make me laugh. I miss that I'm always smiling. The last week have been the best week of life. It's now 9.22 and we haven't talk for four days and I'm here in front of your house waiting for you to text me. It's now 9.53 pm and I just received your text. I love you so much" I wrote on the card and just left it in the mail box. Kat and I talk about stupid stuff still about 3 am. I'm going to sleep now. I fell a sleep but thinking that Kat doesn't want to be with me anymore. I just feel it. I heard something ringing and it's my phones alarm I have too go to work. I saw Kat has texted me "thank's for the card". That's mess up that I wrote everything from the heart and all I get it's thank's . "Oh, no problem" I reply. Three more days have pass and I haven't heard back from Kat. This relationship has come to an end.  I'm going to call Kat. "Hi" I say. "Hi" reply Kat. "I need to see you" I reply. "I don't have time" did a little pause "but I'm sorry I can't date you anymore" said Kat. "Well if you end it I'm never dating you again" I reply. "I know but we got to end it" reply Kat. "Ok, that's fine, good night" I reply as I hang up the phone.
