The next day everyone was woken up early as they headed to dock with the canoes. Todd and Mitchell rounded everyone up as they began taking off. Barbra, who didn't sleep once all of last night, felt butterflies begin to toss in her stomach. She couldn't wait to tell the girls, but then again she began to think…would it ruin things? Did Woodstock want everyone to know, counting his friends? She knew they had all been a gang together since grade school…but would it made things weird? She hoped not. In fact she hoped last night really meant something to Woodstock. Did he really like her?
Barbra felt as if everything was spinning. Deciding to keep her mouth shut, she walked down to the docks and smiled seeing Woodstock and Dave all ready in their canoe. Walking over, Dave raised up his oar and made a funny face.
"Ready to bored the fastest canoe out there, like a rocket ship!"
Woodstock started laughing before Barbra rolled her eyes smiling and leaned down to sit. Holding out his arm to help her, Barbra and him locked eyes for a moment before Woodstock slightly blushed and smiled at her. Sitting behind him, they waited before taking off down the rive with the others.
The trip down was fun, they traveled in the group, trying their hardest to beat the others. Laughing and enjoying the good sun, Barbra sat behind Woodstock feeling her heart racing.
Dave teased on Woodstock not going fast enough and even poked a joke about what he was doing all of last night. Rolling his eyes, slightly embarrassed Woodstock kept paddling ahead as a splashing fight broke out between the canoes. Laughing with Woodstock, Barbra joined in on the fun and even watched one of the canoes sink. Laughing their heads off, they arrived at Devil's Creek.
Unloading, Barbra and all the girls found a spot near the trees to lay out their sleeping bags. It was all ready nearly sunset. Helping set everything up, and start a camp fire everyone mostly hung around and went exploring as Todd started up the grill.
Walking with Karen and Tiger near the shoreline, Tiger finally asked the question everything was dying to ask.
"So Barbra…a lot of us girls noticed you and Woodstock coming into the mess hall last night and holding hands…we just wanted to see if anything happened…
Barbra blushed before laughing, she really couldn't explain it.
"Well umm…yeah something did, I don't wanna make a big deal about it…"
That's when Karen and Tiger began cracking up. Barbra burst out laughing before telling them to shut up. Across the camp, only a few feet away Woodstock walked with Dave and Glazer to bring more firewood to the camp. Both guys kept putting their arms around Woodstock and laughing as he kept looking down, slightly embarrassed.
"Congrats Woody, about time you got laid."
"Come on you guys…"
Fish and Dave laughed before playfully punching him.
"So Barbra your girl now? Huh?"
Woodstock rolled his eyes trying his hardest not to smile.
"Yeah…maybe she is, what about it."
That's when Dave and Fish cheered and slapped Woodstock on the back. Just then Todd called everyone over to dinner. Sitting around the fire, Barbra and Dave kept teasing each other before eyeing Woodstock as he sat down between some people and smiled. Woodstock laughed and winked at her.
Everyone sat around the fire as it became dark, crickets chirping in the background. Throwing food and marshmallows, everyone kept joking and fooling around before Todd began telling a ghost story…
