I'm taking a short break from writing Opposites Attack cause I have a writers block the size of the Hoover Dam. This story is For Hobbit Babe.
Christy sat anxiously tapping the desk with her fingers. She swore the clock had to be moving backwards or something. It felt like the time had been 2:09 for at least 40 minutes, which we all know is impossible, but when your excited about something time purposefully slows down for it's own amusement. Today was the last day of school, and she couldn't wait for summer to start. Her Freshman year had gone great, she was still friends with John and Dawn, and she hadn't failed any classes. This summer the three of them would be counselors at their favorite camp.
Ever since the Care Bears had helped them out 3 years ago, they'd gone back every year. Now they were too old to attend but they jumped at the chance to be counselors. The summer was also the only time they were able to see the entity formerly known as Dark Heart. Now David Henderson, he and his new parents lived in California, and she, John and Dawn lived in Virginia making it difficult to see each other during the year.
She absolutely couldn't wait to see David. Sure they'd exchanged a few e-mails during the school year, he was in his sophomore year of school, and he'd even called her a few times. But they hadn't physically seen each other since the previous summer and it was really taking it's toll on Christy.
BING BONG BING BONG. As the other's in her class whopped at school finally being over, Christy grabbed her backpack and dashed out the door. She wanted to get out before sappy goodbyes clogged the hallways and caused her to miss her bus. Sitting in the back she saw John burst from the school in the same fashion she had. The only thing on his mind was getting to the lake and hitting the jet ski. Dawn did not completely share their enthusiasm. She was saying good-bye to her boyfriend Taylor. He was off to Europe with his family and she was going to the camp.
Impatient as always, Christy stuck her head out the window. "For the love of... Dawn, kiss the boy goodbye so we can go home and pack!" The blonde scowled at her friend before gladly obliging. John looked at his watch timing them. "Okay that's enough let's go." They separated and Dawn climbed on the bus. "You two are so embarrassing."
"Yeah but you still love us." She giggled and sat down next to her brother. The bus pulled out and Christy stared out the window. In exactly 28 hours she would see David again. As the trees zipped by she wondered what this summer would have in store for them.
