Covered Emotions
Chapter 1
The bus was filled with the sound of hyper-active teenage girls laughing and joking with each other. Skye Ashford and her sister India sat in the last seat and looked out the window. Everywhere they looked holes faced them. Not a single tree or sign of wildlife was present. Nothing. The bus lurched to a stop resulting in many girls hitting their heads on the seat in front of them.
"We're here." the driver said. He opened the door and pushed the girls out. "Come on, move it slugs." When it was India's turn to go out, she smiled and flashed her elbow-length blonde hair in his face. Skye followed her. "Here's the girls Miss." the driver told a woman with red hair. The girls were all lined up in a line. Some boys stopped to look their way and hoot.
"Ok when I say your name, go to where I direct you. The driver'll take your stuff off the bus." The Warden chewed on the end of her pen as she went through A Tent to C Tent. Finally D Tent was being called.
"Rachel Savvoy." A girl who's head was down immediately jerked up at the sound of her name. With blue eyes and dark brown hair with a black streak on each side of her face, this skater sported a grey Senses Fail shirt, worn faded jeans, red and black skate Fallen shoes and a red and black sex bracelet on each wrist. She went over to stand by a tall lean man.
The Warden spit out tobbaco juice on the ground as she called out the next name. "India Ashford." India gleefully pranced up towards Rachel who looked at her as if she was runk out of her mind. As usual India flashed her hair in Rachel's face who in turn scoffed and slouched, watching the 16-year old supermodel. Her blue eyes glimmered as she studied the boys. She stood tall and and proud, trying to show off her new 3" heel white ankle strap sandals. Also she wore cage-back dress which was sleeveless and white.
Looking a little more glamorous her sister, Skye Ashford was next. She walked over calmly to her little sister and just stood there, as if she couldn't wait to leave. With piercing blue eyes and long brown hair to match, she was the more modest model of the two and the more prettier one. Her outfit consisted of a off the shoulder mesh jersey white top, a jean skirt with a front slit and blue flip-flops. On her wrists was a bracelet filled with fresh white water pearls.
The boys began to get restless, having to stand out watching the girls instead of relaxing in their tents. Mr. Sir yelled at them a couple times before they settled down again. The D-Tent boys, Squid, Armpit, Zig-Zag, X-ray and Magnet were all interested in nothing but going to sit in their tents. "Jasmine Civello." Walking towards Skye with a huge smile on her face, everyone got a chance to see the dark auburn, icy bluish gray eyed girl. She was wearing a white tank, blue jeans and light blue Chuck Taylors.
Squid took off his bandana and wiped his face with it. He shook the dirt from it and coughed. He looked up to see one of the girls, Skye smiling over in his direction. He hesitated whether he should smile or not. In the end he decided to go on as if nothing had occured. "Tequila Chaos." Trying her best to not stand anywhere near India, Tequila took a place beside Jasmine. With long, thick straightened blonde hair and a green and blue eye, this girl deserved some stares. She wore a green turtle neck sweater with sleeves cut off which she tugged on, short dark blue throwback skirt, green metallic sandals with a matching silk bag and big gold hoop earrings.
"Now I know you boys are restless but there is no reason to be making noise. Just two more tents after this one so calm yourselves before your stomachs willremain unfed." The Warden gritted through her teeth."Now Jessica DeAngel." The quiet blonde-haired, blue-eyed beauty walked swiftly over to where the others stood and stood a couple steps away from them, head down. She sported a black 'Role Model' tank with an angel on the front, green skateboard shorts and all black Converse shoes.
"Christine Winters." A red haired girl with sparkling sapphire blue eyes covered behind curly brown eyelashes. With a pink short sleeve t-shirt that said "I got a dog for a boyfriend. Good trade huh?" in white writing, a stonewashed knee length denim skirt and black two-inch heels. "Is anyone left from this tent?"
"No ma'am." Mr. Sir said. "Nowladies, I want you to find your bags and go with your councellor, Miss B." he said, pointing to a young lady with raven black hair and light green eyes. The girls each collected their bags and followed Miss B to the tent.
"Now everyone, grab a cot and dumb your stuff on it." Miss B said. The girls rushed to each get a cot. Jessica quietly placed her suitcase on her cot. India flung her's onto the same cot and when she saw Jessica's stuff on it, she was not pleased.
"Get your crap off my bed." India protested. Jessica mumbled a "sorry" and attempted to move her things. Before she could, India threw it off.
"India!" Skye gasped. Jessica just stood there, unsure of what move to make next. Skye picked up her suitcase and sat it on a cot next to her's. "You can sleep beside me Jessica." she saidwith a smile. Jessica looked up at her then sat on her cot, opening up a small booklet which was in her back pocket.
"Girls, I already know all of your names but I was just wondering if you have nicknames you'd rather be called by." Miss B asked them. By now all girls sat on their cots with the exception of Skye sitting beside Jessica.
"Well everyone just calls me Skye." Skye replied. Rachel wrapped her arms around her legs and hugged them tight.
"My nick's Spark." Jasmine was the next to pipe up.
"Jazz or Jazzie."
"We'll just say Jazz." Tequila answeredfor everyone. "I'm Catastrophe.No need to ask how I got that name."
Christine was lying on her cot,lookingthrough a magazine. "Before someone interrupts me, I'll just say, call me Sapphire."
India was just putting on her slippers when she realized everyone was looking at her. "Oh, I'm Harlot." Everyone's jaw dropped open. "What?" she yelled.
"Calm down sis." Skye told her. "Jessica, you got a nickname?" She nodded her head.
"It's Strings." she whispered, letting everyone almost srain to hear her.
"So now I know all your names." Miss B said. "I'll leave you all to unpack." She closed the flap and let them to do what they desired for the next three hours.
