Camp Echo Falls (Completed)

Chapter 28

Jade's POV

I'm lying on my bed staring up at the ceiling when Naomi and Alison walk in. Alison closes the door behind her and Naomi says something, carrying on their conversation, but I tune them out.

I rub my hands over my face and sit up, crossing my legs underneath me. My head is swarming with thoughts and I can't get a certain set of green eyes out of my head.

Leo almost kiss me and I almost let him.

God, I need to get a grip. I can't just let a random boy make a move on me like that, especially because I have a boyfriend. Will would be distraught if he found out what happened.

Oh my god, Will. I haven't seen him since our fight this morning, I was so angry but now all I feel is guilt. I need to talk to him.

Naomi stands at the bottom of her bed and drops the hand bag from her shoulder onto the floor, she falls back on to the bed, her hair fanning around her shoulders.

She turns over so she's flat on her stomach, her legs bend upwards behind her kicking playfully. Ali goes into the bathroom and shuts the door. "Are you okay?" She tilts her head at me, her brown eyes look worried as her long eyelashes blink up at me. "This morning was a lot." She emphasises 'a lot' by widening her eyes and raising her eyebrows.

"Everything's fine," I lie. I don't want them to know about me and Leo, more reason for the group to hate him after everything with Will.

"Will and Leo got into a fight, I haven't seen Will since, but Leo looks pretty bad." I say looking down at my nails, picking around the skin of my thumb.

I hear Naomi gasp just as Alison enters the room. I look up to see Naomi throwing her head back laughing. "No fucking way." She exclaims her mouth wide open, it turns into a shocked smile as she puts her head down on the bed to muffle her laughter.

"What?" Alison asks from the end of my bed, her eyes flick between me and Naomi worried.

"Leo and Will had a fight." Naomi laughs as she tells Alison.

Alison sits down on the edge of my bed and looks at me worried, "Is Will okay?"

"I haven't seen him yet," I say guiltily, Alison tilts her head to the side confused. "Leo came to check up on me, that's how I found out about the whole thing." I say quietly.

Everything about Leo makes me feel guilty for some reason. Nothing happened between us, well it almost did. But it didn't, that's all the matters.

"He came to check on you?" Naomi says raising her filled-in eyebrows, her voice sounding like she's holding back from adding something else.

"Yeah," I clear my throat, "we hung out for a bit and then I came here." I look between Alison and Naomi to see their reactions. Alison just gives me a small smile and looks towards Naomi.

Naomi just looks at me with a grin on her face, she clicks her tongue against the roof of her mouth and pushes herself off the bed. She stands up and her hair swishes as she walks over to the dressing table. She picks a tube of lipgloss up and starts to apply it.

"Whatever you say babes." She says giving me a sweet smile through the mirror. She presses her lips together, rubbing the lipgloss over her lips and turns around swinging her hair over her shoulders.

"Anyway," she starts gathering her hair into a high pony tail, "shall we go get some lunch?" She asks, tying a hair band around her thick around the back of her hair.

"Yeah sure." Alison agrees, not looking up from a book she grabbed off of the bedside table. I turn my eyes to look at my phone, it's four pm. I didn't even realise it was that late, time goes so quick during the summer.

"Let's go." I say jumping off the bed and putting my phone in my back pocket, Naomi grabs her bag and we follow her out of the door. We join the open path leading to the breakfast hall, groups of friends heading in the same directions.

We enter the hall, it's buzzing with chatter, the smell of pizza and pasta fill the air. I look around to try and find the boys and find them sitting at out usually table. I follow Alison and Naomi to the buffet table and grab a plate.

I look over the hot plates filled with pizza of all different types and my stomach grumbles, I realise I've had barely anything to eat today, because of this morning at breakfast. I pile my plate with two slices of margarita and spoon a helping of tomato pasta on the side.

Alison takes two slices of pizza as well and I see Naomi filling her plate with only pasta. I grab a bottle of water from the drinks table and we take out plates over to our table. Naomi takes the seat next to Eli and they start talking about something.

Alison sits opposite Naomi, next to Jax, the boy wearing a bandanna moves over, creating enough space for Ali to sit comfortably. He even takes her plate from her hands, so she can sit down easier. The shy, now blushing, Alison thanks him and joins Eli's and Naomi's conversation.

Which leaves me a seat opposite Will. Great.
