Campfires & Rainbows

Chapter 15

Last night Tiny and I 

walked back to our cabin in silence. To be honest, it was awkward, she was still upset with what I told her.

I didn't know what to say so right now, I'm just hoping this would pass over.

Once I got in bed, I couldn't sleep. I was tired both emotionally and physically, but my body ached and wouldn't let me sleep.

On the bright side, I'm happy Tiny is safe and sound.

"Wake up! WAKE UP! Everybody wake up!" Eva danced around the room singing the her version of the clean up song.

Despite what little sleep I got, I wasn't tired, so I hopped of my bed and grabbed a red crop top, 

black leggings and white high top converse.

My hair looked horrendous, but I didn't feel like taking a shower so I put it into a messy bun.

I felt bold today, so I put on some matte red lipstick with the help of Eva. Whenever I do my own lipstick or makeup in general, I end up looking like a clown.

Once I finished, I decided to go down stairs and take a nap on the couch until everyone was ready to go.

"Devin! They're serving bacon today! Get up, get up, get up!" Riley pulled me of the sofa and let me tumble to the ground.

The only thing I'm not going to miss when I leave this camp is the way people wake me up.

I got up and looked around while heading for the door. "Where's Tiffany and Tiny?"

"Oh, they're coming they had something to do, or... something. I don't know, don't worry about it." Riley shrugged.

We walked down to the cafeteria with the group. I remember this morning when Tiny woke up Eva was squealing and squeezing the life out of Tiny," I MISSED YOU SOOOOO MUCH! AND NEVER EVER EVER RUN AWAY AGAIN. Got it?" Tiny nodded. "Good, because you're grounded." Eva huffed still holding onto Tiny. 

I laughed at the memory, Tiny was always so sweet and innocent, her waist long pink hair made her stand out in a crowd. Her piercing ocean blue eyes were intense but somehow calmed you. She always wore huge sweaters making her look even more small and fragile than she really was.

Tiny was the kind of girl you would want to protect no matter what.

And yet, I did just the opposite. Last night, when she thought everyone else was asleep she cried herself to sleep. She cried into her pillow to try and mask the sounds coming out of her. She didn't want to wake anyone.

She's so thoughtful and puts everyone else's needs in front of hers.

Her and I were the last ones to fall asleep. We talked for a little bit before I retired.

"Tiny?"

"Hmm?"

"I'm sorry,"

There was a long pause.

"It's okay, it's just a silly little crush... I'll get over it. Don't worry about me, I'm happy that you're happy with Quinn."

Although I usually love pancakes, I proceeded to pick at them, I didn't feel very hungry.

Tiny is like this perfect little angel, if she's so perfect... Why do I prefer Quinn?

Quinn is more dominant... I guess. I don't know how to explain it. I think it's kind of like the straight girls. Straight girls prefer the good-looking "bad boy", over the polite just as good-looking nerd.

"Who's the new girl?" Riley pointed ahead of us, with her mouth full.

She was pointing at Tiffany, but Tiffers isn't what drew our attention, it was the girl next to her.

The girl next to her was wearing black sunglasses that made her cheek bones pop. Black converse with black legging that hugged her curvy hips. A black crop under this open leather jacket.

But what really caught me off guard was that this girl had short shoulder length hair that was bright pink.

"That's not a new girl... that's Tiny Ross.
