We sat around in a circle huddling around the fire , the light illuminating from the fire shone on our faces , there were quite a lot of people sitting by the campfire a few that were new to me it was a bit weird to be all around these people I shifted around on the log I'm not used to being around so many people and it was starting to get hard to breathe. While everyone was socializing I was trying to regulate my breathing , fiddling with my fingers to try and calm myself , speaking to myself mentally trying to tell myself it's okay but it's not

"Oh you guys look beautiful tonight" Dr.Rose chimed as she sat down , everyone's chatters became silent and the only thing you could hear was the rustles of leaves and crackling of the fire, "As most of you know I'm Dr.Rose I'm one of head doctors here at Sunshine Peaks and today we are here just to be comfortable with each other basically to get to know each other and I mean what better way than being her in the great outdoors" she said smiling and clapping her hands, she was the most happiest doctor I've
seen and I've been to quite a few maybe it's because she likes her job

"So I'm going to let you lot get to know each other explore around the camp and we'll meet back here in say an hour or two" and with that said everyone grouped up and went off in different directions .I stood up and started walking needed to get far away from here I needed to breathe as I was walking I saw a tall tree with many long branches so I decided to climb it I carefully sat on one of the branches and very cautiously looked down I was very high I didn't realize that I've climbed that high. I sighed and looked up to the sky it was a full moon and the wind was blowing lightly

I don't want to be here anymore it's getting harder and harder by the day it might be my second day here but I don't think I can do it I want to go home even though home isn't where my heart is

"This is a private tree" a voice startled me from above the tree I looked up and saw a figure dangling from the other side of the tree

"Excuse me" I said my eyes following the figure as it moved towards me , the way he moved it was if he knew every step

"I don't stutter" His voice replaying in my mind I've heard this before this voice was oh so familiar and I was so ready for a fight

"Never said you did" he moved closer to me his face now visible in the light , he clenched his jaw his eyes gazing into mine he was studying me and I was studying him but I couldn't read him the eyes that I labeled blue were now visible as grey

"You're Madison's roommate Neveah" he said looking away rolling up the sleeves of his sweater

"Last time I checked yeah , and you must Shane's or Nathan's roomate right Leonardo"

"No I prefer my prefer my space" He shrugged "I like being alone" I could totally relate I was alone most of the time after the accident

"Yet you are here with me" Swinging my legs from side to side he chuckled slightly looking up into the dark sky

"I don't know about you but this scene is boring" He said pushing himself off the branch he was falling and fast I frantically tried to get off the tree , was he hurt ? as I stepped on the branch I heard a thud I looked down and saw him there standing waving then he just ran away , what exactly just happened ?

"What are you doing , are you mad ?" Madison appeared from the bushes as Nathan followed behind him. Slowly and carefully I climbed down the tree , Madison rushed towards me putting both her hands on my shoulders

"What did he do to you , are you okay" She said starring at me , I chuckled and her and Nathan looked at each other worryingly , "I'm fine" I said pulling away from her grip and turned on my heel , tiptoeing to see if I could find this mysterious boy

"And to answer your question he didn't do anything to me in fact he was decent" I shrugged and turned around to see Nathan and Madison's surprised expressions

"Leo was decent ?" Nathan squinted his eyes as if trying to understand "Leonardo Davies ?" I nodded my head slowly , okay although it was kind of hard to believe that Leonardo was decent but he was I don't know maybe his not the person I painted him out to be

"That Leo is very rare" Madison said looking down at her feet "Anyway" She shook her head her long her swaying from side to side "Let's head out to the campsite" she said I looked over to Nathan and he was doing the same actions as Madison , it seemed as if something happened something that I don't know although was curious about asking it was not my place it seemed like a very touchy and rather sad subject , I quietly followed Madison and Nathan as we walked back into the bushes and towards the campsite
