I trudge back to my cabin, a trail of young girls lingering behind me. I was furious, I came out to the camp to get away from the city and annoying people, just to get trapped with a guy who loves to tease me. I wondered if he was doing it for attention of some kind, he seemed nice to everyone else, but he just loved to get under my skin.

When Sidney had told us that we were stuck together, all summer, I simply did not say another word. I turned around and collected the girls and began the hike back to cabin twelve. I really didn't need to talk to Niall, we would have plenty of time for that in the following month.

Niall and his group of boys were slower behind us. As some would call it "giving me my space to cool off".

As we reached the cabin, all the girls rushed to their bunks to begin setting up their stuff. Every once in a while, one of them would interrupt my unpacking to help them with their sheet or hanging something up. I then read them all the rules, making sure they understood them clearly. Realizing I barely knew anything about my girls, we decided on a name game. Starting with out names and a fun fact about ourselves.

"I'm Alexandra Richardson, but y'all can call me Andy. One fun fact about me is that when I was younger, I lived on a farm!" I giggle, trying to appear fun to the girls. I point to the girl seated next to me, Piper coincidentally, that is her turn in the game.

"Hi, I'm Piper and I do ballet." She introduces herself.

"I'm Brittany and I love Taylor Swift!" She cheers, throwing her hands in the air. Our attention is distracted from the group when a fist rattles in the door. I stand up, walking over to the door, opening it to be greeted by Niall. I groan slightly, not really wanting to talk to him.

"Hey Andy, can you watch the boys? I have to run to the camp center to grab something." He smiles, hopeful, and his hands shows me to a group of six chaotic eight year old boys. Before I can even respond the blue eyed boy runs off down the trail, leaving the group of campers. Crud.
