Camp Echo Falls (Completed)

Chapter 37

Jade's POV

A ray of light from the widow hits my face, warming my face, as I stir to the sound of birds chirping. My head hurts from the drama from last night, not to mention the alcohol. Yes I'm a bloody lightweight. I don't even remember most of last night, just that I had to practically drag a drunken Naomi back to the cabin.

And then what happened after that. Fuck.

The feeling of Leo's arm around my waist is so vivid in my memory, the light trace of his breath on my neck, as he held my closer to him than ever before. The rush of adrenaline coursing through my veins, the thudding of my heart in my ears, the pure need to be closer to him. Fuck.

Why am I so stupid? I can't be with him, not only because of Will, but because of so many other things. So why do I keep putting myself into this position? The one where he can use me and get away with it over and over?

I know for certain that after this summer, I'll never see him again, so why let him use me to keep him entertained for such a short time? And then let him leave and pretend I never existed? Ugh, I'm so, so stupid.

I turn my face away from the sunlight, grabbing a pillow to cover my face, groaning as I'm rewarded with the cold side, helping to calm my headache. I hear someone else in the room stir, but don't open my eyes, not being bothered to move even an inch.

We've probably missed breakfast. I can't even think about getting out of bed right now, let alone walking all the way to the dining hall. Oh well.

A knock at the door makes Naomi groan from beside me, but I don't bother to move, leaving Alison to answer the door. I hear the commotion as she opens it, and footsteps, as people enter the room. I slowly roll onto my back, tossing the pillow to the side of me and slowly sit up on the back of my arms.

Opening my eyes slightly, I see Will entering our room holding a plate of food, Jax and Eli behind him, both struggling to carry a plate in each hand,  and several drinks under their arms.

I close my eyes again and throw my hands up in the air in praise, falling back down onto my bed with a flop, causing the boys to chuckle.

"You guys...are fucking...legends." I hear Naomi mumble, from beside me and turn to see her sitting up on her bed, stretching her left arm up into the air. Her hair sticking up in some places and a small, tired smile playing across her dark lips.

The boys take a spot on the floor, placing the plates pilled with food on the floor. The food ranges from toast and croissants, to fruits like strawberries and grapes, to many helpings of bacon. Will start to hand out cutlery, Alison closing the cabin door behind her and joining the rest of us in the circle on the floor.

Naomi physically rolls out of bed and a loud thud comes from her side of the room, as she hits the floor. "Help." She groans, her voice muffled from being face down on the floor.

Will shakes his head chuckling lightly, and gets up from the floor to help her. I turn away from them, sitting up on the edge of my bed, stretching my arms up to the sky and yawning. I wipe the sleep from my eyes and push myself off the bed, heading for the bathroom.

Turning the tap on I splash my face, the cold water waking me up, sending a shiver down my spine. I brush my teeth and gurgle some mouth wash, taking a mental note to not drink orange juice this morning. I quickly run my fingers through the ends of my hair and twirl it up onto my head in a bun, securing it with a black hair tie.

I pull on the sides making it looser and pull out some baby hairs, I turn to the door and it clicks as I turn the lock and let it swing open. The group are happily eating and talking, sitting crossed legged in the small space of carpet at the end of our beds.
