*Our Little World*

*Part One: Dreams and Wishes
"Wake up, honey. It's twenty after." Cassie's mother shook her daughter awake.
"Mom, it's too early," Cassie groaned. Her mother sighed.
"Come on, Cassie. It's only a half day today." Cassie smiled and sat up. "I knew that would get you up. Now get dressed." She gestured toward the folded plaid skirt and navy polo. Ew. Uniforms. Her mother left the small bedroom. Cassie scowled at the uniform and turned on her radio and table lamp. Instantly, the room was full of light and sound. Cassie sighed and stood up. She unbuttoned her pajama shirt and slid off her pants. She remorsefully reached for the uniform and slipped it on. Cassie grabbed a pair of socks, turned off the radio and lamp, and went into their bathroom.
She searched for her toothbrush and toothpaste. Ugh! Mint flavor! She groaned. Cassie brushed her teeth and sulked down the stairs. Max was waiting behind the gate for her. His tail wagged faster as Cassie stepped over the gate.
"Yap, yap!" He jumped on her, desperately trying to lick her face.
"Stop it Max! I'm not in the mood!" Cassie lightly hit his nose. He whined. Cassie rolled her eyes and went into the living room. Sara jumped off the couch and rammed into Cassie's legs. She then fell to the ground.
"You still have to go outside, girl." Cassie said, and she patted her dog's head. Cassie moved to the couch and put her socks on.
"Lucia, get my shoes." She ordered her youngest sister.
" No, you gots legs." She snapped back. Cassie glared at Lucia, then she got up and picked up her shoes.
"I hate sneakers!" She groaned. Cassie turned back to Lucia. "You're not even dressed!" Lucia looked down at her pajamas and shrugged. Cassie snatched up Lucia's clothes and threw them at her. "Get dressed." She growled. Lucia was just finishing getting dressed when it was time to leave.
" Cassie, where are your glasses?" Cassie reached up to her face. Crap. No glasses. Cassie groaned and ran upstairs. Aha! She grabbed her glasses, put them on, grabbed her jacket and backpack, and ran out the back door.
"I wonder how Angie's morning is going," She mumbled.
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!
Ugh. Morning. The worst time of day in the history of the universe. Angie rolled over and whacked the snooze button on her way-too-loud alarm clock. Still groggy with sleep, she stumbled out of bed, down the hall, and down the basement stairs to the laundry room. Grabbing her plaid skort, she searched for a clean polo. Light blue, of course. Having uniforms stunk. Once back in her room, she pulled on the most hideous uniform ever invented and nastily pulled her hair into a messy ponytail.
"Hey honey," Angie's mom greeted her as she slumped into the kitchen, grabbing a breakfast bar and pouring herself a cup of grape juice.
"Morning Ma," Angie replied with a big yawn.
"Sleep well?"
"Yeah sure, I guess." Done with her mini breakfast, Angie went into the bathroom to wash her face. Why must we get zits? Brushing her teeth as fast as possible, she returned to the kitchen, her mom waiting with her lunch.
"See you later sweetie." Said her mom as a gray Dodge Durango pulled up to the driveway outside.
"Hey Drake," Angie greeted her friend as she opened the door and hopped up onto the seat, pulling her book bag up behind her. Nearly every morning Angie got a lift to school with Drake, his little brother, and his dad. So, with that, Angie was off and so not ready for another totally boring day of school.
Cassie's mom made a sharp turn and they were in front of the school.
"Have a good day, honey," Cassie moaned and jumped out of the front seat. Lucia opened the door and ran to her group of friends. As usual, Adrianne, one of Cassie's friends, was sitting on the concrete in front of the school.
"Hey," Adrianne greeted glumly. No one wanted to be at school. Cassie nodded back and sat next to her. They sat in silence and hugged their graduating class sweatshirts closer. No one seemed ready to go to high school, either. Abriana dad's truck pulled up, and behind her was Abrinna's grandparents' car. Yes, there are two of them, but just different spellings. The two girls joined Cassie and Adrianne.
"Hey you guys!" Abrinna replied. Happy? What's her problem? She must have read Cassie's expression. "Cassie, it's only a half day and its Friday!" She exclaimed.
"You're right," Adrianne replied. The teacher opened the door to the school and the kids flooded in. All the girls groaned. It still was SCHOOL.
"Cassie!" Cassie turned and saw Meme rushing towards her. Cassie grinned.
"Hey Meme. You just made it." Meme nodded and they walked into the school. The girls slowly sulked down to the end of the hall to their lockers. Cassie opened her locker and Willy, the class dork, one of them anyways, slammed his fist into his locker, making her jump.
"What is your problem?" She demanded. Willy just shrugged and replied, "It's just what I do." Cassie shook her head and went into the classroom. Cassie groaned. All of her best friends were in algebra, which took place during the first period of school at a local high school. As she sat down, Willy and Mitch, the other class dork, waltzed in and Maddie, Mitch's twin sister, trailed in behind them. She shoved pasted them and sat down. Once everyone was sitting, the room was full of gossiping about the Jonas Brothers (=p) and the boys talked about basketball. Cassie put her head down and tried to zone out the others.
Sure, Cassie was friends with everyone, but they didn't have much in common. Meme was talking about a new movie that came out when the intercom was activated.
"Good morning, please stand for the pledge and prayer," Their principal, Mr. Peterson, replied. The whole class, sighed stood up and faced the flag. After the prayer, the class was dismissed for the first period. Math. Ick. Once in another classroom, their math teacher, Mr. Brent, handed out the test. Math. Test. Argh! Cassie sighed and went to work.
Meanwhile, Angie was headed out to the local high school, still with Drake and his dad, but with more of her friends; Allie and Hannah were in the backseat. As they pulled up to the building and hopped out, Lyla, Whitney, Mark, and Brett, more friends, joined them on the way to the hot and stuffy classroom located on the first floor. Together, they walked down the hallway and...crap. The door's locked. Again. So, instead they, excluding Mark and Brett of course, huddled together and engaged themselves in pointless conversation in order to pass the time. Finally, after what seemed to be like ages, a bald man, who Angie thought could be their teacher's brother, appeared out of the office carrying a big chain of rusty keys. Lyla, as always, tried to guess which key it was. Naturally, it was the last one she had him try, and the impatient students trampled over one another to get in the room first.
The eight from her school sat themselves down in the front of two rows in the center of the room, making the two nerds, Mark and Brett, sit up front. Every one of the five schools that met there every morning had their own little section they sat in. There was never assigned seats, but everyone always took the same spot as if they had to. Class didn't start till 8:00 A.M., so they usually had about ten minutes to talk in addition to their time waiting outside.
Of course, class went slowly, it was fifty minutes instead of their regular forty. Mr. Moore talked and talked until Angie's ears were ready to explode.
"Okay, I'm going to let you go," He said after what felt like hours. Relieved to get out of there to see Cassie back at school, Angie packed up her Algebra 1 book and notebook, heading out the door. She hoped Mrs. Arkins wouldn't be in a bad mood because they were late. Again.
Cassie sighed and turned in her test. Mrs. Arkins, their history teacher, dismissed them to get their history books. Math and history were in the same room. The class got their books and got ready for history. Extreme history, that is.
"Goodness, their late. AGAIN!" Mrs. Arkins complained about the algebra students. Cassie glanced to the hall and saw Angie zoom by. She grinned. The rest of the students rushed in.
"'Bout time you arrived!" Mrs. Arkins mumbled. Allie, Cassie's other best friend, sat in front of her and silently rolled her eyes. Angie was diagonally across from Cassie. They smiled at each other. The big weekend was coming up. Big weekend you ask? The two girls were spending the weekend camping at a nearby lake. Why? To hang out! And there was going to be a meteor shower. After history, Cassie grabbed Angie.
"Angie, dude, you know what's this weekend?" Angie smiled.
"Yeah! The meteor shower! Which means...SHOOTING STARS!" The girls aren't really into astronomy and stuff, but they loved shooting stars!
"Come on, we're gonna be late!" The girls quickly grabbed their books and ran into homeroom for religion. Mrs. Michaels started on a speech about the sacraments when Cassie, and probably Angie, drifted off to her dreamland.
"Cassie," Angie whispered, trying to get her attention. "Cassie! Mrs. Micha-"
"Cassie!" Mrs. Michaels yelled.
"AHHH!" Cassie exclaimed and jumped off her seat.
"Pay attention!" Cassie sat down and her face turned red. She heard Willy snickering next to her; Cassie smacked his arm. Hard.
"Oww.." He mumbled, rubbing his sore arm. She glared down at her book and class continued.
"Nice hit," Angie whispered. Cassie lightly smiled.
"As I was saying, Baptism is-Oh dear," She glanced at the clock. "Class dismissed." Everyone stood up and rushed to their lockers. Computers was next. Cassie and Angie walked down the hall to the computer lab.
"This lake we're goin' to is a private lake. Members only. My mom is coming along, you know, for parental supervision." Angie nodded.
"I can't wait! This comet only comes once every ten-thousand years! And rumors say that if you make a wish, it will come true."
"Pshaw," Cassie replied, "Wishing on a comet? Angie, we can wish, but come on, it's impossible."
After school, the two girls practically ran to Cassie's mom's car. Angie was coming over right after school.
"Hi mom!" Both girls greeted.
"Hello girls, how was your day?" Cassie was about to answer when her little sisters, Lucia and Rose, opened the side door.
"Hi Rose! How was band this morning?" Rose opened her mouth to respond, but Cassie interrupted.
"Good, thanks mom." She replied.
"Cassie, you can wait. Rose?"
"She moved me up a chair!" Rose exclaimed, raising up her clarinet, which was in its case.
"Great! Now let's go!" Cassie mumbled impatiently. Her mother rolled her eyes and pulled out of the parking lot. Cassie turned in the front seat to talk to Angie.
"Did you finish Breaking Dawn?" Cassie asked.
"Yeah! I loved the ending! Did you beat the mine boss in Twilight Princess?" Cassie frowned and shook her head.
"I'm stuck. I can't open this door! And I'm stuck on Phantom Hourglass and Ocarina of Time!"
"Well, that's a problem. Once we get to your house, we'll work on Twilight Princess." Cassie sighed.
"I returned it in the mail. I get frustrated easily." Angie laughed.
"I know you do! Well, what about Ocarina of Time? Or did you destroy the Wii?" Cassie rolled her eyes.
"No, the Wii is fine. We could do that."
"But," Her mother interluded, "you don't have much time. We're leaving after dinner."
"Yeah, yeah," They both absentmindedly mumbled. Cassie's mother pulled into their garage. The girls got out, ran past the dogs, and into the house.
"We made it past the hounds!" Angie exclaimed. Cassie smiled and they went upstairs to her room.
"OH MY GOSH!" Angie yelled, pointing at a poster.
"What? Is there a bug? I'LL KILL IT!" Cassie exclaimed, grabbing a nearby picture frame.
"No! Your poster! I hung mine up too!" Angie gazed at the actor portrayed as Edward Cullen.
"Oh!" Cassie realized, lowering the frame. "I can't wait! Twilight comes out SOO soon!"
"Best book ever is gonna become the best movie ever!" The two girls gazed at the poster for a bit.
"Okay, if we're going to play Ocarina of Time, we should go," Cassie finally pulled Angie away from the poster and dragged her downstairs to the Wii. Then, Angie started to squirm.
"No! I'm not done!" Angie complained.
"I say you are. I need your help." Cassie, once downstairs, wrapped Angie's legs in a thin blanket.
"What are you doing?"
"I want to make sure you hold still. You can't move an inch without your legs." Angie crossed her arms.
"True, but can't you trust me?" Cassie turned on the Wii.
"When it comes to Edward, no, I can't trust you." Angie grunted.
"Again, true." Cassie plugged in the GameCube controller into the Wii. She smiled and started to hum along with the opening song. Angie sighed and was becoming more impatient.
"Are we gonna play, or not?" Cassie broke out of her trance and pushed start. She sat cross-legged on the floor with Angie, still tied up, behind her on the couch.
"Okay, where are you stuck?"
"Well, I have the Master Sword, I'm part of the Gerudo bandits thing, and- Where are you going?" Angie started to hop towards the stairs. "Hey!" Cassie jumped up and knocked Angie down from her legs.
"OUCH! GET OFF OF ME!"
"NO! Not until you promise to stay down here." Angie considered this.
"I can't keep that promise." Cassie, still holding Angie's legs, moved towards a chair.
"Wait...what are you DOING?" Angie started squirming worse than before. Cassie lifted her friend up to the chair and tied her leg blanket to the legs of the chair.
"Stay here."
"I don't think I could go anywhere..." Angie mumbled. Cassie turned away and walked towards their pile of blankets.
CRASH!
"Angie!" Cassie exclaimed. Angie tipped the chair and dragged herself towards the stairs. Cassie dived and sat on the chair's legs.
"Must...ugh...see Edward!" Angie managed to say.
"I need your help!" Cassie then looked around the quiet house, excluding themselves.
"Where's everyone?" Angie finally stopped squirming and was now breathing very heavily.
"They went to the store, remember?" Angie replied. Cassie nodded her head and thought of something else for them to do, something that Angie LOVES (other than Edward). Aha!
"How 'bout we beat up Marth in Brawl?" Angie jerked up, somehow flinging Cassie across the room.
"Count me in!" Angie yelled, untying her blanket prison. Cassie smiled and put SSBB into the Wii. Angie was sitting on the couch again, without her blanket prison, and was holding the GameCube controller. Cassie picked up her pink Wii controller and nunchuck.
"Let's do this!" Angie exclaimed. Cassie nodded and pushed start. They skipped through the beginning and went to brawl mode.
"I call Kirby!"
"I get Link!" Cassie replied. She changed the mode to team brawl and they chose to be blue. Angie gave a sly grin when Cassie chose Marth for their opponent.
"What level? 5? 7?"
"9, duh, Cassie! We can kick his butt." Cassie nodded in agreement and they continued to choosing the stage. Angie took over and went to her "lucky place", The Battlefield. The girls went into action and kicked Marth's butt for at least an hour.
"Girls! Dinner time!" Cassie mom called. Cassie paused the game. She laughed when she saw that Link was doing his Triforce Slash, AKA his Final Smash, to Marth.
"Angie, look at Marth's face!" Angie joined the laughter, but then paused.
"When did your mom come home?" Cassie also paused and thought for a bit.
"That's a good question..."
"GIRLS! Dinner is getting cold!" The girls shrugged and went into the dining room. Her little sisters were already sitting down when Cassie's older brother, Toby, barged in.
"Get out of my way, punk," He growled to the girls.
"Sorry," Angie mumbled. Cassie gave a little smirk and they both got food and sat down.
"Are you girls packed? You know we are leaving after dinner." Cassie's mother replied, sitting down.
"Crap," Cassie whispered, "I knew there was something I needed to do."
"Well, go pack. You can eat when you come down." Cassie sighed, pushed her chair back, and rush up the stairs. She pushed through her beads hanging in her door and opened her dresser. Cassie pulled out a couple long sleeved shirts, some jeans, a few pairs of socks and underwear, and she grabbed her deodorant. She stuffed them into a way-too-small bag and rushed back downstairs. Angie was putting her dishes away when she came back down.
"Come on, Cassie, we have to go." Her mother replied from the dining room.
"But I didn't eat yet!" Her mom entered the kitchen and handed Cassie a plate with chicken, corn, and mashed potatoes on it.
"You can eat on the way." Cassie sighed angrily and followed her mom and Angie out the door to their camping adventure.
Cassie's mom started blabbing about safety when Angie turned on Rose's DS and looked through the few games Rose had.
"Yeah, yeah, mom. We know how to survive and stuff." Cassie replied.
"Well, maybe Angie doesn't," Her mother pointed out.
"Don't worry, Mrs. C.," Angie replied, "We can handle this camping trip on a lake." Cassie's mother sighed and focused on the road.
"Let's play Phantom Hourglass." Cassie said to Angie.
"Okay, where are you stuck in this game?" The two girls were in the back of Cassie's dad's four-door car.
"Well, I have everything: The hammer, bow, shovel, boomerang, bombs, those mouse bomb things, and, of course, the sword and shield. Now, I'm back in the Temple of the Ocean King, and I am trying to find the major bad guy, whose name escapes me..." Angie nodded her head and thought for a bit.
"Is the temple that one place with those creepy phantom dudes?"
"Yeah, that can kill you in one strike. I hate them." As if on cue, Link was killed by a phantom and half of the sand from the Phantom Hourglass was lost. "Crap." Cassie murmured.
"I see why you hate them," Angie murmured back.
"GA!" Cassie exclaimed, slamming the DS closed. "I hate this game!" She paused and continued, "I sound like my other older brother, Mitchell. He says that all the time, about ANY game." She patted the DS. "I don't hate you," Angie shook her head and grinned.
"I'm worried about you, Cassie." Cassie stared at Angie, then grinned.
"YOU'RE worried about ME? I'm worried about you!" Angie grinned back, but then her face fell.
"CRAP! I don't have a book! AW MAN!" Angie slammed her back against the seat.
"I thought you started on that new book, uh...what's it called?"
"Generation Dead. I'm only so far, and...yeah, I forgot it." Cassie smiled and opened the DS again. "Don't play Zelda. Or do you want a broken window?"
"I'm not gonna throw it out the window! I would throw it at your head, anyways, I'm not gonna play Zelda. I want to play Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games." Angie rolled her eyes and leaned closer to see the screen better.
"I hate this game. I can't play it! It's too hard!"
"Pshaw, hard, Angie? Come on! It's not hard at all!" Cassie replied. Angie sighed, crossed her arms and mumbled, "Are we there yet?"
Next thing Cassie knew, she was asleep, leaning against the window. Angie, also asleep, was leaning on Cassie's shoulder. Suddenly, the car drove onto a gravel road and over a pothole. Cassie jerked forward, while Angie fell forward till her head banged against the window.
"OW!" She cried, rubbing her sore forehead.
"Sorry for the jerk, but look! We're here!" Her mother replied. Still half-asleep, the girls looked around the campsite. Not much to see. A biggish lake in the middle with campers all around.
"Where are we setting up?" Cassie asked, now more interested because of the tire swing that swung out onto the lake.
"Over there," Her mother pointed out, "Under the oak tree. We always camp under that tree." Angie, also seeing the swing, started to bounce up and down in her seat.
"Can you let us out now?" Cassie asked eagerly. Before her mother answered, both girls were out of the car and running head on toward the swing.
"Me first!" Angie yelled. Cassie pushed past her and jumped onto the swing.
"Hey! I said, 'Me first'!" Angie screamed. She also jumped on, but Cassie pushed her off the swing.
SPLOOSH!
Angie resurfaced and grabbed the swing.
"JERK!" Cassie prepared to push her in again, but Angie flipped the swing. Cassie resurfaced and swam back towards the shore. Angie was sitting on the swing.
"Aw! Come on! Lighten up, Cassie!" She called. Cassie stopped swimming and turned around.
"I'm hungry!" She called back, "We can play later," Cassie started to swim back. "Plus, my mom is gonna be steamed. We have to face her sometime." Angie sighed and jumped into the water. Once both girls were walking towards the oak tree, they prepared for a yelling. Cassie's mother came out of one of the newly pitched tents, and she was...smiling.
"I see you girls had fun!" She replied.
"Yeah we did! Tire swing equals fun!" Cassie said.
"But, aren't you mad that we jumped in, clothes and all?" Angie questioned.
"No! Of course not! You brought other clothes, right?" Both girls nodded. "Well then, get dressed and can cook up some hot dogs!" Cassie and Angie rushed into the tent and got dressed.
The sun started to set when they fired up the hot dogs. Cassie hugged her sweatshirt tighter around herself and scooted closer to the fire.
"Do you have cheese?" Angie asked. Cassie looked offended.
"Of course we do!" Cassie dug around in a lunch box and pulled out a pack of shredded cheese.
"YUM!" Angie said with delight, grabbing the bag.
"You better finish eating and put your pj's on. The meteors are gonna come soon." Cassie's mother replied. The girls shot up and ran to their tent. In a matter of minutes, the girls were in their pj's and dragging out their air mattresses.
"So, what are you gonna wish for?" Angie asked as Cassie lay down on her mattress.
"I can't tell you! Besides, it won't come true..." Angie shook her head and lay down also on her own mattress.
"You don't believe in anything!"
"Fine! Let's think of a wish we both can make." Angie smiled.
"Edward to be real!"
"If Edward becomes real, so does Link!" Angie nodded in a agreement. "And Alice, Bella, Aryll,"
"Zelda, Jacob-" Angie was cut off by Cassie's "Oh my gosh!"es.
"Look! The meteors!" The girls watched in awe as it rained meteors.
"Quick! The wish!" They closed their eyes and whispered: "We wish for Edward, Link, Bella, Zelda, Alice, Aryll, and Jacob to be real!" When they opened their eyes, it was quiet and still.
"You think it came true?" Angie whispered. Cassie shrugged.
"Don't know. Let's go to bed. Maybe something will happen tomorrow." The girls pulled their mattresses back into the tent and fell asleep almost instantly.
"Girls, wake up!" Her mother called from outside the tent. Cassie groaned and turned on her side.
"Angie," she yawned, "Wake up," Angie whapped her arm around in disagreement.
"I'm not done sleeping," She mumbled. Cassie sighed and grabbed her glasses.
"What if our wish came true and Edward is outside right n-" Angie was out of the tent before Cassie could finish. "Never mind," Cassie mumbled as she crawled out of the tent.
"YOU LIAR! He isn't out here!" Angie screamed.
"SHHH! People are sleeping! And you really thought that he wou-"
"Don't lie to me about Edward! EVER!" Angie still screamed.
"SHH! I'm sorry!" Cassie replied. Angie nodded.
"You should be..." The girls walked over to the picnic table and sat down. Angie sat across from Cassie, not wanting to sit next to the "Edward Liar".
"Okay girls, eat fast. I thought we were going to spend another night here, but I have to work. On a Saturday." Her mother sighed and gave the girls their breakfast. They ate fast and rushed to get dressed.
"I wonder..." Cassie whispered.
"What? If Edward was really real? Me too!" Angie replied angrily.
"Get over it! I needed to get you up!" Cassie replied as she brushed her should-length, dark brown hair. "No, I was wondering if our wish really did come true. Like, maybe they will come to school on Monday."
"I'll believe it when I see it." Angie replied as they piled into the car and drove home.
Disappointed they were leaving so soon, Cassie and Angie climbed into the car along with the Nintendo DS and several pieces of paper.
"What's with all the paper?" Cassie asked, buckling her seatbelt.
"Hello. Forgot my book. I need something to draw on," Angie replied.
"Oh really?" Cassie said, "Whose pencil you going to use?"
Angie looked around, then, realizing her mistake, threw the papers to the floor and crossed her arms.
"Danggit!" she said angrily.
Cassie laughed and turned on the DS. It was either be bored or face the stupid phantoms. She chose the phantoms.
Time passed and the ride went smoothly, so smoothly that Angie fell asleep, catching up on the hour or so she'd lost because of "Cassie the Edward Liar". Cassie was sucked into "Zelda Land" and stayed there...till her mom hit a deer. The force of the hit knocked the DS out of her hands, and it woke Angie.
"What happened? Did we hit something?" Cassie asked worriedly.
"Oh God! Please tell me we didn't hit a deer!" Angie cried.
"Okay...we didn't hit a deer." Cassie's mother replied.
"Really?"
"Uh...no. We hit a deer..." Angie gasped. Cassie's mom searched for the mini phone book she takes with her everywhere. "And now," Her mother continued, "We're stuck in a ditch." Cassie sighed and picked up the DS.
"NOOO!" She cried. "It's off! I was SO CLOSE!" Cassie closed it and was on the brink of tears.
"Dude, it's just a game." Angie replied.
"And it was just a deer!" Cassie retorted angrily. Angie glared at her and Cassie glared back.
"GIRLS! I'm trying to talk to the tow guy!" The girls glared out their windows. "Great! We'll be waiting here, I guess." She hung up her cell phone and turned towards the girls. "Sorry girls. A tow will be here soon." Angie frowned and glanced at the road.
"That poor deer!"
"What about us? Who is more important?" Angie hesitated. "Can a deer read about Edward?"
"No, but...GA! I don't need this!" Angie tried to open her locked door.
"Whoa, where do you think you're going?" Cassie said, grabbing Angie's shirt. "You can't go anywhere! There isn't anything for miles!" Cassie pulled Angie and buckled her in the middle seat.
"You're an Edward liar and a Bambi killer!"
"I didn't kill it! My mom did!" Angie crossed her arms and glared at the floor. They were silent till the tow arrived.
"Finally," They all replied as they climbed into the truck and drove to the nearest body shop.
After the car was repaired and paid for, they drove home in silence. Neither of them played the DS or even looked at each other. Once they arrived at Angie's house, Cassie snapped.
"I'm sorry, Ang! I was being a jerk..."
"Me too, buddy. We both were. See you Monday?" Cassie nodded and Angie ran into her house, ready to tell her parents of the best camping trip ever, minus the ride back.
HAH. Yeah, as mentioned in the summery, this story is old and very crappy. I apologize, but it would make sense to read the first book before the sequel. Please, please don't criticize me. I wrote this a while ago, and I probably won't be going back an editing it for a long long time. So don't complain to me how much this SUCKS, because I know that already. Thank you :)
