"Spill it, all the details..please!" Morgan whines as she kicks a rock in front of her.
"Okay." I roll my eyes in a playful manner.
We decided to walk back to our cabin early because she wanted to talk to me about something.
Now finding out what "something" was, I really want to go back.
Once we catch up to the rock she kicked, I nudge it slightly with my foot. I had worn stupid flip flops to the bonfire.
"You seriously only like him a little bit?!" Morgan squeals as she looks out the window to make sure no one is around.
I too look out the window of our cabin.
It's not like I can like him though. I'm with Eric.
Luckily those blonde bitches from earlier aren't here, they are probably still with Drake and Michael. Whoever they are.
"Morg no body else will leave the bonfire early like we did."
I say casually knowing that once Noah finds out I skipped he will too.
"How did you guys first meet? How much do you like him? Do you think he likes you? Will you still talk to him after summer camp?" Lucy rushes without taking a break.
I plop down on the rickety bed and take a deep breath.
"He tripped over buckets, only a little, maybe, and yeah I guess."
She glances up at me with wide eyes and gapes at me.
Okay.. she asked me those ridiculous questions why is she surprised at my answers..
"Don't judge me, it's not my fault he-" I start to explain.
She holds up my phone.
"Does this mean you and Eric are over?"
-1 new message from Noah your best buddy-
I should really keep an eye on my phone, I didn't realize she had it.
Shrugging, I take the phone and read who it's from again.
This time it sinks it and I'm utterly confused.
I think back to earlier, remembering something so I slowly slide under my mattress and I pull out my candy.
I hold the Milky Way, and twix in my hand awkwardly. They have melted and were smashed down a bit.
I throw the twix towards Morgan.
I lay down my phone on my stomach and take the skittles in both of my hands. sighing, I place them and the Milky Way under my pillow.
"So when did you give him your number?" Morgan questions me as she scarfs down her twix bar.
Im unsure of how he got my number, so I just shrug at her.
My phone vibrates again.
-2 new messages from Noah your Best buddy-
I read the messages. the first one asks where are you, I keep rereading the second message over and over again.
I smile at my phone, then Morgan then my phone again.
Noah @ 9:16 PM
I miss you :(
Morgan gets up from the floor and rushes over to me. She snatches my phone.
"Oh my gosh! He's so sweet!" She says dreamily.
No I really dont think so in fact he's an ass for sneaking his number in my phone. Maybe I didn't even want his number.
Yeah maybe just possibly there is a slight chance that I wanted his number..
Sighing I hand Morgan the phone.
"Type what ever you want." I say in an annoyed tone while opening my Milky Way.
She smiles an evil smile.
"Oh I love you so much! Will you go out with me??!" she says aloud and she types on my phone.
I gasp and jump off the bed to attack her. We both start laughing and I get off of her.
She hands me the phone and I read the message she sent.
Me @ 9:18 PM
Im @ my cabin with Morgan..Want 2 come?
Of course she would send that.
"Well thanks for not sending the whole I love you thing." I say.
She starts laughing, and I join in laughing uncontrollably.
I sit up and rest against the side of the bed, wiping away fake tears and holding my stomach.
"Knock Knock." I hear someone say.
I turn my head to the cabin door and wave.
Noah's stands in the doorway smiling.
He enters and sits down a few feet away from me.
"Hey buddy" He smirks.
Yay his smirk is back, oh my gosh I can't believe I just thought about his face again.
I playfully stick my tongue out at him.
"Hi buddy." I whisper.
He chuckles. "What did you say?" His eyebrows raise.
I roll my eyes and laugh.
"Hi buddy!" I say loudly.
Morgan sits there somewhat amused, then puts her hands up to her heart.
"You guys are so cute." She shrieks.
"Do you still have the skittles?" He asks while typing something on his phone.
Morgan looks and me then Noah
"He gave you that candy?" She whispers and points to the empty twix wrapper next to her.
I reach over to my pillow and pull out the skittles.
I Toss them towards Noah.
Morgan shrieks. "You had skittles!?"
I nod but then add "I wasn't planning to share them but apparently now I am."
He takes some then hands the bag to Morgan . She hands me an empty bag of skittles.
Oh great, it's not like I wanted any. Nope my buddy and best friend can eat them all.
As if knowing what I was thinking, again, Noah poured most of his skittles into my hand.
"Thanks but you didn't-" I start off saying.
Before I can finish my sentence the camp director barges in our cabin.
Her bright red hair up in a pony tail.
"Campers you know you must not be alone with mixed genders while no other kids or directors like myself is around. Mr. Samuels you may not come here anymore. Go back to your cabin."
The lady pivots on her heel and leaves.
Noah sighs and stands up, he looks at me and shrugs.
He turns and walks out of the cabin and down to his own.
After he leaves I turn to Morgan and give her the I-Hate-Her look
"That was a lame rule." I state.
She agrees as she climbs up to her part of the bunk bed.
Oh man seriously, I was just beginning to like him being here. Well at least I have skittles.
After a few minutes of silence and me chewing on skittles the other two members of our cabin walk in.
"You really shouldn't have thrown that burnt marshmallow at the little kid!" the tall blonde one says jokingly.
The other girl laughs while flipping her long blonde hair.
Her smile fades when she sees me, she makes a disgusted face my way.
Again? What is with these bitches?
They wrinkle their noses. Once again they flip their hair as they walk over to the bunk bed across the room.
After 10 minutes or so the two girls are asleep on their bunks and I'm the only one left awake.
Noah @ 9:45 pm
heyyyy u still up?
me @ 9:45 pm
nope I'm sleepin
Noah @ 9:46 pm
oh shit I wanted to talk to you
me @ 9:47 pm
lol jk but I think I'm going to go to bed now
Noah @ 9:47 pm
ok.. goodnight beautiful :)
I lay on my bed shocked that he said that.
"Goodnight beautiful." I repeat to myself.
As I'm laying on my back staring at the bunk bed above me I hear a faint knocking sound.
Curious, I sit up and look at the door. It's Connor.
"What a surprise." I say to myself.
Before he knocks again I get up to see what he wants.
Carefully and quietly I shut the cabin door behind me.
"What in the hell do you want Connor?"
"Lindy. I just came to apologize." He quickly says.
I sigh, "I told you not to call me that."
"But I used to always call you that in the 8th grade, you know... when we dated?"
"We aren't dating and we aren't in 8th grade anymore." I say with an annoyed tone in my voice.
"That's what I wanted to apologize for."
"You're 3 years too late Connor." I mumble.
He rubs his forehead and looks away for a moment, "Yeah. I know. And I feel horrible about it." He then locked eyes with me, "Could you just hear me out?"
I stare back into his eyes, "No Connor." I bite my lip and look down at my shoes, I was wearing converse. " I don't -"
He grabs my arms, " Please."
I look at his arms, more importantly his wrists. He has dozens of cuts and scars.
My breathing cuts short for a second I hold my breath and try to hold back the tears. "Connor....I-I can't do this right now."
He lets go of my arms, "I'm sorry Lindsey."
I nod my head and quickly run inside.
As soon as I shut the door behind me I burst into tears.
Why was I getting so emotional over this?
Why would he do that to himself?
