Best Enemies

Rubi

I walk back over to Shay and am greeted by a shocked look on her face. I half expect her to be angry with me but all she says is

"You've got some guts Rubi Kingsley" and walks away.

I struggle to keep up with her, I should not that her legs are considerably longer than mine and she can walk much further. I am confused, she should be asking me questions and gossiping over Hanna but she has given me a cold shoulder. Suddenly I realise that Shay is jealous and frustrated. I was so fixated in beating Hanna that I completely ignored Shay. I follow her in silence saying the odd inside joke trying to regain our friendship but she isn't bending. We walk all the way to the cabins and unpack our bags. The silence is so pure it is hurting my ears. I can't think. I want to go back in time and change things but hands on a clock only move one way. Shay is my only true friend at this camp and I can't lose her. I slowly walk up to her feeling guilty.

"Shay? I'm sorry for abandoning you to fend for yourself while I was thirsty for revenge and wanted to taste Peter's sweet lips". I say with a slight hint of sarcasm. Shay tries to remain composed and looks away. But I step in front of her and bursts out laughing. I sigh in relief.

Throughout the rest of the afternoon the camp had organised many stupid activities and 'ice breakers' for us to enjoy. The only person who was enjoying it was Felix. He was dancing around being and idiot. But to be fair I had never seen him this confident. My mind flickered back to earlier and I remembered Hanna. Where was she? I stood up and started to walk around and eventually I saw the blonde head of Hanna Scott. Her eyes were slightly puffy and she looked shaken. Had I done that? She was probably just nervous I assured myself. She saw me staring and tears sprang into her eyes. She left the room and ran out of the building. She is such a drama queen. A cheesy bell is rung and we are called to dinner. A crowd of people swarm towards the dinner hall and we take our seats at the long wooden benches.

"IT'S JUST LIKE HOGWARTS!" A high pitched voice squeals. I know who it is before I even turn around. Sabrina is a short girl with long orange hair. She runs up to me and shakes my shoulders violently screaming "IT'S JUST LIKE HOGWARTS" again and again. I give her a pitiful look and try to move away but she clings on and starts to recite the whole of the first three chapters of The Goblet Of Fire. The last thing I could do to get rid of her is to say "I haven't read or watched the Harry Potter series". She would just shake me harder. Shay peels Sabrina of and we quickly hide behind a corner. We giggle as Sabrina goes up to others and does the exact same thing. Finally Hanna arrives and Sabrina goes up to her. She starts to pull her hair and jump on her feet. I can see the anger rising in Hanna's face, she is ready to explode. When Sabrina spreads her arms wide and engulfs Hanna with a hug I know that that was the last straw. Hanna shoves Sabrina away from her and raises her hand ready to strike. Sabrina starts to jump forward again, oblivious to the danger. Hanna's hand comes forcefully down on the girl's cheek with a loud SHMACK!! The whole room is silent apart from Sabrina's soft whimpers. And everyone one is looking at Hanna. I run out and grab her by the hand and lead her away. I need to talk to her now.
