"I'm going to miss you so much." Griff told me.

We were standing outside the Camp Kikiwaka bus, hugging each other goodbye. "I'm going to miss you even more." I mumbled, setting my gaze towards the ground when soft lips landed on my nose, cheeks, forehead, then lips.

"Don't be sad. Next summer I'll have a phone, and we can exchange numbers." Griff explained, smiling weakly.

"Ok."

Griff and I just stood there for a good while, hugging until Xander placed his hand on Griff's shoulder. "We gotta go buddy. Dad's waiting."

Griff pulled away slowly, tears brimming his eyes. He wiped away a stray tear from my cheek, laughing softly. I briefly hugged Xander before sadly waving goodbye, watching as they got into the car and drove away.

A loud honk came from behind me, causing me to whirl around. Through the window of the limo, Luke waved me over. "Hey sis!"

I plopped my bags into the trunk and slowly sunk into the black limo.

"What took you so long?" Zuri chuckled.

I didn't reply.

"Ok," Luke said. "Why are you so sad? There's totally something you guys aren't telling me."

I sniffed, feeling tears begin to drop down my cheeks. "Griff..." I sobbed.

Luke furrowed his brows. "What about him?"

"They're dating," Emma said.

There was a short pause before Luke shouted: "WHAT?!"

"Oh no," Zuri muttered. "Here it comes."

"Who said you could get a boyfriend while I was gone? I'm the older brother so I have to approve! I only met this guy once! Once! You guys had one job to keep her away from boys and you couldn't even do that! We are going to drive back to Maine and let this Griff kid know that he has a lot of procedures he needs to go though before he can even think of dating my sister. And you! What makes you think you can go behind my back dating a guy?"

I sniffed. "He's fine, Luke. I knew you'd be mad. It's just...I really like him and...I miss him already!"

Luke shook his head. "Next time I see this dude, we're gonna have a nice talk. Alone."

"So. Tell me Griff. What does she look like?" Carlos asked me.

I laughed and stared at the screen, smiling at my two best friends. "I already told you a BILLION times."

Sofi frowned, "Please Griff? I wanna know her more. You say that she's 'the most gorgeous and beautiful and funny and nice and sweet-"

"Ok! I get it." I replied. "So. She has really pretty eyes; you know? Their like— like staring into a really neat green ocean, and her hair is so soft, and pretty, and it smells really nice when we cuddle. She's got this super tiny nose that's almost not really noticeable? And her lips— those are the best— they're super soft, pink, and they feel really nice on—"

"OK! We get it. You're in love." Carlos teased.

"Shut up and leave me alone." I murmured.

"Oh! Oh! Can you take us when we drop you off in Maine? At the camp? I wanna meet this 'Ash' girlie!" Sofi exclaimed. "She sounds like a dream."

I nodded. "She'd love that!"

"This is gonna be interesting." Carlos said, smirking.
