Addison POV

Well that happened. I was on the bus as Avani talked away. I didn't really listen to her as my mind was on other things. My side was bruised from when I hit the ground but other than that I was okay. Then there's Dixie. I close my eyes and lean back into the seat. How I missed those soft lips already. I look up in front of the bus and see Dixie's head. After the kiss we didn't talk about it and both just went back to camp.

I don't know what this all means or what this means for us but-
"Addison are you even listening?" I snap out of my thoughts and look at Avani.
"Of course I have" she raises one eyebrow.
"Then answer the question" she says and I swallow hard.
"Uhm...yes?" I say and she stares at him.
"What the fuck Addison you think I'm fat?!" I shake my head.

"What no, I....no-"
"Addison I'm messing with you I know you stopped listening awhile ago" I sigh and and look at her.
"I'm sorry" she smiles.
"What's on your mind?" I bite my bottom lip.
"Nothing I'm just sore from falling" she grabs my shirt and trys to lift it. I fight her and push my shirt back down. I don't want to show the whole bus my bra.
"What the hell Avani?!" I say and she laughs.
"Calm down I just want to check out your bruise" I sigh and lift my shirt half way.

"Fine" she takes a look at it and frowns.
"You'll definitely have the bruise for a few days, maybe I could find you a pain killer?" I sigh.
"Yeah that would actually help" she nods her head and grabs her backpack from the bottom of her chair. I look over at Dixie just to see her looking at me. We hold eye contact and my heart races. Eye contact is so powerful and addicting but it scares me at the same time.

She smirks and looks away. Thank god I thought was going to die under her powerful gaze. I look back at Avani who is looking through her backpack. She pulls out painkillers and looks at me.
"Why do you look so flustered?" I feel my cheeks with my hands. They were burning.
"I don't know" I say and she raises one eyebrow before handing me the painkiller.
"This won't kill me right?" I ask her and she laughs.

"No I promise it's just to help with sore muscles and shit my mom gave them to me Incase I hurt myself" I nod my head and pick up my water. I put the painkiller in my mouth and swallow it with water. I relax into my chair.
"Want to watch a movie?" I nod my head.
"Okay there's baywatch, the half of it, jumanji, Jurassic park-"
"Put on Jurassic park" I say smiling remembering how it's Dixie's favorite movie and how we didn't finish it because we were well....busy.

"Okay sure" she says and puts her iPad in between us. The movie starts and I lean my head against her shoulder.

It's been a week since camp and my bruise is looking much better now. I walk down the hallway and smile. I see Dixie walk into the art room and I decide to follow her. We need to talk about that kiss. I walk into the room and see Dixie leaning against the table looking down. I look around the room and see no one else was in here. I close the door softly but Dixie doesn't move.

"Dixie?" I ask and I hear her sniff. I immediately rush over to her.
"Dixie what's wrong?" before I knew it she turned quickly and wrapped her arms around me. She buried her head in my neck and cry's. I hold her tight not knowing what else to do.
"I'm here, it's okay" I say rubbing her back in small circles. I kiss the side of her head and I feel her start to calm down. She slowly pulls away and wipes her face.

"I'm sorry princess" she says and I give her a small smile.
"It's okay, do you want to talk about it?" I ask and she looks down at her hands.
"It's just....I don't think Charli's getting any better" she says that breaks my heart.
"I'm so sorry Dixie" I say and she sits on the table.
"I want to take her to this dance competition next week but our mom said that Charli couldn't go" I sit down next to her.
