Falling for the enemy Chapter 1
** So, I know I already have one story going but I really wanted to post this up. Please vote & comment (: **
I shut my last suitcase and dragged it to the door. I pulled my to-do list out of my pocket- Pack Suitcases-check. I stopped in front of the mirror to check my outfit; I was wearing an All Time Low band t-shirt and jean shorts with my back converse high tops. My phone vibrated so I jumped on my bed and grabbed it, it was a text from my cousin Sophie it said: Be there in 5 minutes, super excited.
I was so excited we were finally going to Greece! My cousin Sophie and I had decided to volunteer at a camp where a bunch of kids pay like $500 and go to Greece for practically the whole summer. They got to do a lot of fun stuff. I haven't been to Greece since I left and came to New Jersey. I wanted to visit my family, since that's where most of them lived. My mom and my older sis Joanna were coming in August.
My cousin Sophie and I were super close we were almost sisters. We were both 16. Except we looked nothing alike she had red, wavy hair and brown eyes, she's the only Greek ginger I know. I had brown, straight hair with purple highlights and brown eyes. I was born in Greece and left when I was 2 year olds so I had a slight accent on some of my words. Sophie was born in New Jersey but she was still Greek and proud.
The doorbell rang so I ran downstairs to answer the door. I opened the door and hugged my cousin then I helped her bring her stuff in. she was spending the night here because our flight left early in the morning and she lived an hour away. I said hi to my aunt who then proceeded to walk into the kitchen to gossip with my mom. We went and sat down in the living room to watch TV. "Did you see the list of all the counsellors?" Sophie asked. "Darn, I forgot to check my e-mail" I said. "Don't worry I printed out a copy" she said. She pulled out the list and we weaved through it slowly to see if we knew anyone.
Counsellors for Greek Camp 2010
Nick Christakis
Eleni Papadimitrakopoulos
Sophie Papadimitrakopoulos
Dimitri Ritakos
Yianni Kolakis
Penny Panademopoulos
Alexandra Koutropoulos
Sammie Nikolakou
There were a bunch of other names on the list, but we only recognized those ones. "Omigosh, do you remember Yianni Kolakis?" I asked. "Hmmm... not really maybe" Sophie said. "I'll be right back" I said and ran upstairs towards my room. "Eleni! Where are you going?" Sophie asked. "I'm getting a picture" I said.
5 minutes later I ran back to the living room holding a picture of our first soccer team when we were 7. "There" I said, pointing at a very, young Yianni Kolakis. "No way" Sophie said. "Yes way, do you think he remembers us?" I asked. "I dunno we'll just have to see tomorrow won't we" Sophie said with a smile.
We watched a movie and Sophie's mom was leaving so Sophie went to say bye to her since she wasn't dropping her off tomorrow. Sophie was bawling so we watched a romantic comedy to calm her down then we went to bed. I could barely sleep I was so excited.
The nest morning Sophie and I woke up at 5:30 a.m. I showered and got dressed. I straightened my hair so my purple streaks would stand out. I was wearing a purple top with black tights and my converse. Sophie left her hair down and was wearing jean shorts with a pink tank.
We had cereal for breakfast, and quickly went over our carry-on checklist. "iPods" I said. "Check" Sophie said. "Books & puzzle books" I said. "You're a dork, but check" she said while laughing. "Hey, now by doing word puzzles you are saving yourself from developing Alzheimer's when your ninety so hypothetically speaking I'm saving your ass" I said also laughing.
My mom and dad helped put the luggage in the car. We got to the airport at 7 a.m. Our flight left at 10 but international flights had to be there 3 hours earlier. We checked in and went to the terminal where the people from the camp where supposed to meet. There stood at least 10 of the hottest guys I had ever seen in my freaking life. "Best.Summer.Ever" I whispered in Sophie's ear.
After spazzing for several minutes we decided to go meet some of the other counsellors. We met Penny and Sammie first, and then we went towards three guys in a huddle. The first guy had black hair that was in a fohawk and had intense blue eyes. "Hi, I'm Yianni" he said. "Hey, I'm Eleni, this is my cousin Sophie" I said. The second guy had sandy, brown hair and soft brown eyes, his name was Chris. The third guy had blonde surfer hair and an awesome tan, his names was Nick. "Well, we gotta get some stuff before the pane takes off so we'll see you guys later" I said waving.
We went into the convenience store and stocked up on candy, gum and magazines. It was time to board the plane so I went to say bye to parents promising them I would be careful and e-mail them everyday. The plane had 3 seats together in each row across from each other. So it was pretty much 6 seats altogether. We found our seats which were directly across from Nick, Chris & Yianni. This is going to be interesting I thought, 9 hours on a plane with 3 hot guys.
