I was the first one to arrive, not that it's something new... I was the first one for the past 13 years. David was a bit concerned the first tree times i came a day before the camp actually started, but I think he's used to it by now.

It's not new to me that my parents don't care enough to actually remember when it starts, or what I like, or check on me... They never did...

Sometimes I feel like David is kinda figuring it all out... It gives me anxiety... I'm 16, I don't want to go to an orphanage. And I hate how stupid I was six years ago, crying in front of fucking David, and bitchy Gwen

I was deep in my thoughts as I was holding Mr. Honeynuts on the thing I would never call a bed, but still better than nothing

I heard footsteps coming close to my tent, so I quickly stuffed him under my pillow and took out my phone, as to imitate being busy

Then David came in, and as much as I hate to admit it, I do like him a little more... He's like a perfect father... Wait, what the fuck am i thinking?!

Oh my God I'm just so stupid, I'm daydreaming abut a loving, normal family again...

"Hey kiddo, how ya doing?" as annoying as allways, David was too happy at this hour, but I would be lying if i said that it isn't nice to be cared about, even if that's just how he needs to act, it's still nice

"I'm fine camp man" as much as I want him to just sit here and talk a little, I need to hold the asshole persona, Its not like I can just stop being an asshole and start being nice to fucking David, not in this life at least .

"That's good!" wow, I relly want him to just know everything, and just help me, but... I'm too scared, "you?" Wait. Did i just ask David how he's doing?! Am I insane?! What the fuck is wrong with me?!

D-did Max just ask me how I am?! Oh my gosh it's happening, after 13 years of trying to get him to soften up, he is!
"I'm amazing, thank you for asking Max!" I said, I'm so happy.

"that's... Uhhh, good" that felt weird... He looks like he's... Proud, of me? No that can't be true, no one is proud or happy to see me, I'm just seeing things.

"Wel the bus will be here anytime, so maybe you'll join me and Gwen to wait for them?" David reminded me just how much I miss Nikki and Neil, I don't really care about the rest of the camp, but Nikki is like a sister to me, while Neil... Well Neil is my crush...

I fell in love with him like tree years ago, I was 13 at the time, it was my seventh year at the camp, while his third, I will never forget the night I fell for him.

Nikki was asleep so Neil and I went to the spooky island, we were just talking, kinda swimming, or more Neil was swimming and I was too afraid to take my hoodie off

But he saw that, and came up to me, huged me, and told me "it's okay, I saw it before, just, don't be scared to show me" that night was the first time I showed my scars to somone.

And what he did, made me cry, made me cry so hard and so long that I felt pathetic. He took my arm and slide his finger over every single scar, and he didn't say it was disgusting, but said that he was proud of me, that I didn't give up, but I went on with life.

From that moment on we were close, really close, me falling in love with him, and him just getting cuter and cuter, and I've been more and more comfortable with him

And a year ago I told Nikki, that was so awkward, but it was totally worth it, she told me that Neil confesed to her that he's gay, so I have chance, and he has a crush on someone in the camp, I am sure that it's not me, but I can dream about it can't i?
