"Eat. Sleep. Volleyball."

"Wakey, wakey, eggs an bakey!" I heard a voice say right in my ear. 

I groaned, covering my ears, "Leave me alone." I muttered. 

"We have to get up for practice my dear." said Dylan. 

"But I don't want to." I sat up, rubbing my eyes. 

"Hey, I got less sleep than you, and I'm not complaining about sleep." Dylan  smiled walking back to her bed. 

"That's because even though you were doing who knows what with your boyfriend, doesn't mean you have to be so happy and postive like." I joked. 

"You get enough of that too missy." she stuck her tongue at me which I did back before getting up and dressing up in my volleyball gear. 

It seemed weird to see the gym so....empty. After it being filled with friends and family when the tournamnet was going on, everything was in full swing. Now that the bleachers are back to the wall, and all us campers inside the gym ready for some more practice, it just seemed weird that camp was going to be over soon. 

"Glad you could all make it," started the director as Noah and Corey slipped in the gym. I was starting to get worried that something happened to Noah, but at least he showed up. "As I was saying, I know you guys had a few days of playing hard and relaxing, it's time to work hard some more. The camp is almost over and I'd like for you guys to get the most out of this camp.

"So! Once I am done giving directions you will go with your team and resume your practices. Now we are doing something a little different here, as it is the first year that both girls and boys are at the camp. I am close friends with a guy who directs another volleyball camp which is also coed, and in a few days our teams will play against their teams and the camp with the most points will win the camp trophy.

"So play hard, don't give up, and lets kick some ass!" with that everyone started laughing. He blew his whistle and everyone rushed to where their coach was located at.

"Alright ladies, lets start with Queen of the court!" Coach June yelled as she blew her whistle. 

With that Breanna came to my side grabbing my arm, "You are with me missy." she smiled as we went in line.

When looking to see who our third teammate would be we looked over to my left and found Kaelee in line. "She will play fine Bre."

"She better." she scoffed. With Kae's moods giving me whiplash, I'm not sure if she's nice or still mean. 

"Next team up!" June yelled as the three of us ran onto the court as coach tossed the ball onto our side. 

"I go!" I yelled passing the ball to Bre as she went to go set it.

"Four! Four! Four!" Kae yelled as she did her approach and hit the ball down so hard that the girls on the other side were so astonished.

"Kaelee!" coach yelled. "Now that's what I'm talking about!" with that Bre and I came to Kae and hugged her. 

"Damn girl, that was a great hit." Bre said. 

"Thanks, it was a nice set." she complimented Bre.

"And my pass was pretty good too you know. You wouldn't have gotten a good hit without my amazing passing skills." I joked. 

"True. Nice pass." she smiled. 

"Alright girls! Enough dilly dallying! Switch!" 

We were on the Queen side, point after point, a new group of three each time and no one could beat us.
