Last Summer

Wednesday, July 26

O. M. G.

OMG.

OOHHHHH EMMMM GEEEE

THE 2 PEOPLE I WOULD NEVER EXPECT AT DANCE CAMP CAME TO THE CAMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The camp was short on staff so they showed up.

Jeb and ❤️Eric❤️ showed up!!!!
oops...
I didn't mean to put hearts next to his name. It was an accident, won't happen again!!!

Sorry. I'm awkward and stupid. Sorry.

He's waaaaaaaay out of my league. He's 14, almost 15, SUPERCUTE, and SOOOO~OOOO~OOO~O TALENTED. He's an amazing dancer!!!! I don't think I'll ever be THAT good.

uhhh... moving on!

Jeb was my team's counselor. Our team name is The Tipperary Taco Eating Toucans. Now we have 3 counselors. I guess my team was just too much work for only 1 or 2 counselors.

The girls said I was spelling "toucans" wrong on our t-shirts. No. Heck NO!!! They said it was "t-u-c-a-n-s" not "t-O-u-c-a-n-s". I looked it up. It's toucans. I WAS RIGHT!!!!! So to you girls who FALSELY corrected me;

IN YOUR TOUCAN-ESQUE FACES!!!!!!!!! HA!!!!!!!

I caught Eric staring at me , like, three times. Not that I was counting. Every time I looked at him, he was looking at me. I'm creepy. I'm sorry.

We did the same dance activities again today. Miss Lydia called Eric up at the end of the day to sing, wait for it, wait for it...

THE DANCE CAMP SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He sang sooooo off key and his voice cracked like, 20 times during both verses!!

I laughed so hard I cried!!!!!! He was so cute!! umm, err.. I mean FUNNY. YEAH THAT'S IT!! Funny.

What? I didn't say he was cute.

nope

not me.

OH SHUDDUP!!!

SO I THINK HE'S CUTE!!!!

Sue me.

Jeez.

They dismissed us into the hallway.

10 minutes later...

a kid was walking towards the door. He looked to be about 3 or 4.

BOOM!!!!! HE BARFED ON THE DOORMAT!!!!!!!!!

His mom brought him over to the bushes to complete his projectile puking there.

IT WAS SOOOOOOOO GROSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Eric walked over to me. "What happened?"

"Some kid threw up on the doormat." I replied.

"Ew." he curled his lip.

"yeah." I said quietly crinkling up my nose.

Eric laughed. "I see you're easily grossed out by that sort of stuff!"

"Well who isn't?"

"So, do you have any idea why he did?" he asked. "Last year there was a catastrophe. A bunch of campers got a virus and it was spreading fast, so they shut down the camp."

"Well, it could've been a few things: little kids are sensitive to heat, so the drastic temperature change may have caused him to get sick, he could've eaten too much, food poisoning, or a stomach virus." I stated matter-of-factly.

"How long have you studied children's vomiting?" he asked sarcastically.

I rolled my eyes at that boy.

"I'm KIDDING!!" he laughed. "...I think you're brilliant!!" He blurted out.

I blushed so much! My face looked like a baboon's butt!

He blushed too and took a sudden interest in the caulking on the window.

"When you two LOVEBIRDS are done flirting and discussing vomit, Jul, you're ride is here." Said Jeb, coming out of nowhere.

"LOVEBIRDS?!" We repeated. Eric blushed like CRAZYYYY!!!

"Yeah, yeah yeah." said Jeb "Julie, you should probably go. Your friend is waiting."

"Yeah..." I sighed.

"So, maybe we could talk tomorrow?" Eric asked.

"SURE!!" I answered a bit too eagerly.

He chuckled and gave me a crooked smile. "Later." he said winking at me.

"Yeah... later." I grinned.

I saw a boy who looked to be 14-ish walk up to Eric, then I realized...

I KNEW HIM!!!!!!

"JAKE??!" I screeched.

"JUL!! HOW YOU BEEN?" He laughed heartily.

I walked over to the two of them.

I hugged him. Eric just watched awkwardly.

ERIC'S POV

I watched Julianna hug Jake. I realized I was clenching and unclenching my fists. Hey, it's not like I was jealous or something! I saw Jake sneer at me. Some friend huh? Julianna gave me a worried look and opened her mouth to say something (probably "are you okay" if I read her expression right), but then Jake said "You both texted me about this camp, so I thought I'd check it out. Thought I'd kill 2 birds with 1 stone, except I'm not KILLING them, I'm TALKING to 'em!!" He snorted at his own joke. I saw Julianna roll her eyes at him. "Classic Jake." I mumbled.

"Oh, I've kept my friend waiting. Gotta go! Bye Eric! See ya later Jake." She called over her shoulder.

JULIANNA'S POV

"Hey!" I yelled to my friend.

"HEY-O!!!!!!" she yelled back.

We hopped into her car.

"Were you talking to ERIC O'NEILL?!" she swooned as she said his name. That kinda bothered me.

"Yep. The one and only. What's it to you?" I interrogated.

"Oh, nothing. He's just sooo cute!!!!!" she sighed.

"I wish he'd talk to ME!!!!" she squealed.

"You're lucky." she stated.

"I know..." I said to myself.
