It turns out, drinking and staying up all night wasn't that great of an idea. They had all slept till after 2 in the afternoon and Blake wasted no time in getting everyone uo to pack as fast as they could.
While the girls were off getting ready, Dalton went around asking for his camera. Which was weird because Dahlia's glasses went missing too. Nick just made a crack about the two having some kind of defect where they loose everything. Dahlia forgot any contact solution so she had to deal with the blurryness. She could have sworn she fell asleep in them.
"So, as I was saying last night before I got inturrupted." Carly said." We are you going to make it our mission to find you a guy. And when we do we will help you with the "Go get 'em." tactic."
"I dont think I need help." Dahlia defended.
"What experience do you have in flirting?" Paige asked.
"Forget flirting. I'll seduce him with my awkwardness."She said cherrily.
The girls laughed.
"So, you and Wade talked some more?" Paige asked Carly.
"We're just in different places right now." She replied." He hasnt given me a guilt trip for going, so I can't give him one for staying."
"But he hasn't made a decision on Stanford, right?" Dahlia asked.
"His dad is pretty mad about something and i think it's because he's considering on going to Stanford. Something about it being too far away or something."
"Oh my God." Paige said putting a hand over her mouth." Theres that smell again."
"What is it?" Dahlia nealy got sick.
"I think it's coming from over here." Carly started walking off.
"Yea, lets go toward the smell." Paige said sarcastically.
"I want to know what it is."
"Car, I love ya, but come on!"Dahlia pleaded.
"I hate you." Paige pouted.
Carly turned back to smile at the two and ended up slipping and falling face forward into a road kill pit where she had to use her hands to stop herself from goimg any further.
"Call for help!" Dahlia instructed when she notice Paige wasnt going to help, and slid down herself to attempt to help. She stepped around into the pit infront of Carly to try to pull her up when she slipped fell herself. When she pulled herself up she noticed what Carly was now screaming about and started calling for help also.
All 4 boys came running. Wade helped Carly , Blake went to Paige, and Dalton attempted to help Nick with Dahlia.
"Theres a hand." She nearly shrieked." In the pit! Theres a fucking hand!"
They all stared at it and looked up to see a a pickup truck backing up and into the pit. A very creepy snagle-toothed man stepped up and started unloading the dead animal carcasses from his trunk bed.
"Is that thag truck from yesterday?" Carly asked.
"No, that one was bigger." Dahlia replied.
"Hey." Carly called out to the man." Don't you see that?"
His eyes followed the direction she was pointing and started walking towards the hand. He slowly grabbed a hold of it and it popped off of whatever it was attached to.
"Anyone need a hand." He said jokingly." I'm just kiddin'. Picked it up on the sode of the road last week. What are y'all doin' around here?"
"We were campin up in the trees." Wade answered.
Dahlia thought she was gonna be sick. It was all over her shoes, back, hands, and in her hair. She thanked Paige when she helped with a water bottle and got annoyed when Dalron asked about his camera again. The young girl was about to leave to head back when Wade announced his fan belt had busted and agreed to get a rode feom the guy to a small town called Ambrose.
"Your just gonna let your sister and her boyfriend go with a guy who cleans roadkill forba living?" Dalton asked Nick.
"You clean shit for a living Mr. septictank Man." Nick laughed and started following the others back to camp.
"Yea but i dont walk through it. Thats a difference, right?"
"Yea but you are full of it." Dahlia remarked with a grin.
When they got back to camp Dahlia went behind a tree and changed into an extra jacket Blake had and some shorts Paige offered and some flip flops. The shorts were a littke short for her taste but it would do fine till she could take a shower. Thats all she wanted so she requested she be dropped off and use her money for a motel room instead of the game. They gladly dropped her off at a cheep motel they found in Baton Rouge to escape the smell and left for the game.
She sighed and walked into the small convenient store and bought some bath stuff along with a cheep shirt and sweat pants, some contact solution,and a bottle of perfume. The woman at the register didnt say anything but Dahlia could tell she was holding her breath.
"Thanks." Dahlia told her when she handed her the recipt." umm You're turning purple."
The girl let out an embarresed breath as the young girl walked out.
The man at the desk did ask though and right when a cute guy walked in.
"woah." The guy said." I respect a girl whos not afraid to get down and dirty but what happened?"
"Went camping and ended up trying to help a friend who fell in a road kill pit."
"Its 50 a night." The older man said.
"Thats great." She said and paid.
After walking out she mentally slapped herself.
Really?! Really!? Today I have to meet a cute guy! Covered in dead animal! Fuck my life! Her head screamed.
She opened her room to see plain walls, a plain bed, and a small tv. Perfect. She stepped in and slung her purse, full of her things, and the plastic bag onto the bed and went to shower.
It felt great to be clean again and to smell good. She got out and slipped into her new clothes and thanked God they werent dorky-looking. She heard her phone go off and saw it was Dalton saying they were on their way back. They were quite a ways away so she decided to go eat at the diner down the street before she checked out.
It was a cute little box-like building, it had all the chracteristics of any other diner. It was small, had the same things on the menu and te waitresses were so cherry they obviously hated their job. After asking, Dahlia strode over to the JukeBox, while ignoring a persistent asshole who was trying to get her attention by making cat calls and kissy noises.
"Hey sweetness, come hang out with me." He took another swig of his beer.
After putting it to good thought, she decided on a Kansas song just to piss the guy off hopefully. He didnt seem the type to like old school music. He wa wearing too much black and ba too many piercings for Dahlia's taste.
"Come on!" He complained." What is this crap?"
She smirked and sat back down.
"Don't worry Darlin'." Came a husky voice."I'll pay for the encore."
It was the cute guy from earlier. He walked up an sat down across from her.
"Guy-who-likes-girls-who-get-down-and-dirty, right?" She asked.
"Yea, uh Roadkill-pit-girl, right?" He smirked.
Her smile grew wider. This was her chance and she didnt want to miss it.
"Ya know, you could be sitting in someone's spot." She teased.
"Really? Boyfriend?"
"Maybe."
"Well, his loss."
"Someones confident." She grinned again.
"yea, that would be me." He smiled back." Dean."
"Dahlia." She shook his hand.
