Chapter 3 All at once

The catering van pulled into a large space reserved for staff parking, I could hear music playing behind me, kids chattering and girls screaming gleefully. It sounded like camp should sound but I found all the noise unsettling.

Me and my mum both climbed out of the white van and were almost instantly greeted by a overly jolly English man. "Good morning sweeties and welcome to camp rock!" He said cheerfully receiving a small woop from my mother and a rather forced smile from me.

"Hey I'm Connie Torres from Connie's catering, and this here is my daughter Mitchie." She said and gestured in my direction.

"Brown and it's lovely to meet ya." He said sticking out an arm for me to shake, I wasn't expecting it and jumped a mile back before regaining my composure and shaking his hand timidly.

My mum let out a nervous chuckle and mumbled something about me being shy around people I just met then went to collect our things out of the back of the van. Brown then led the way to our cabin, showing us the kitchen as we passed. I could see all the campers staring at me when I walked by but I just kept my head down and blocked them all out, I was invisible in my school and I would be invisible here, just the way I wanted to be.

"Here we are then guys, I hope everything is alright for ya." Brown said politely as he finished showing us around the room.

"It's great isn't it Mitchie?" My mum asked.

"Oh..um yeah great." I replied sounding less than convincing.

"Well you can go and have some fun if you want, I'm just gonna go over a few things with the staff anyway." My mum said with an encouraging smile and I guessed that she wanted me to leave, so I did.

When I left the cabin all the kids seemed to be staring at me, I heard some whispers and a group of people were pointing and laughing. My heart started to beat faster and I quickened my pace, I couldn't do this, I couldn't be here yet and suddenly my quick walking turned into an all out run and even though I had no idea where I was going I didn't want to stop. I was paying so little attention to my surroundings that I didn't notice the guy standing directly in my path until I collided with his chest and bounced back into a heap on the floor. I was making a habit of this.

"Ow." I whimpered a little too loudly rubbing my sore ankle, another bruise appeared to add to my collection but I was too scared to look up at who I had hit.

"What the hell is your problem?" He asked as he dusted himself off.

"Hey I'm talking to you, are you deaf?" He said a little louder as he started to walk toward me angrily.

"Sorry... Please don't come any closer." I whispered like a frightened child, he must have been able to sense my fear because the footsteps stopped.

There were a couple of minutes where neither of us said anything or moved then he broke the silence.

"Are you okay?" He asked, staring at my now blue ankle that I was still rubbing.

"It's fine." I said sharply as he edged his way closer to me.

"It doesn't look fine." He countered and shuffled a little bit further along the ground. When he was almost next to me my head bolted upright, I looked him in the eye and told him to stop. Only after did I realise who I was with.

"Alright, alright chill I just want to make it's okay." He paused for a about a second then asked, "What's your name?"

"Mitchie." I replied.

"Hi Mitchie I'm Shane." He said and slowly put his hand out for me to shake, I reciprocated reluctantly.

"So now we're not strangers can I please take a look at your ankle, I promise I won't hurt you." He said so sincerely, I felt my head nodding before I had time to protest.

A he was looking tentatively at my foot I said something that had been going through my head since he introduced myself.

"I already know who you are." I whispered, he was Shane Gray from connect 3, the whole school loved those guys, I used to be partial to their music too.

"Well I thought you might but I also thought you might not respond well to arrogance, I'm still not convinced that you're not about to try make a run for it." He said matter of factly as he carefully removed one of my black shoes.

"Ah.." I croaked as the force of the shoe coming off jolted my leg.

"Sorry." He said then placed my foot onto the floor once again,

"Look I...I need to go, I'm fine really my mum will be wandering where I have gotten too." I said quickly feeling increasingly more uncomfortable around him. I was in the middle of nowhere, alone with some pop star that I didn't know, it reminded me too much of the party and I started to feel sick, my body trembled and my breathing hitched.

"P..please, I...I need to g..go home." I cried between hitched breaths.

"Calm down okay, I'll go get your mum, who is she, are you at the camp?" He replied quickly, he actually seemed scared.

I nodded, "She. w..works. in .the. kitchen. Connie." I said trying hard to control my breathing, I watched as he suddenly disappeared into the distance and the feeling of being alone sent a wave of relief over me. My breathing started to calm a little, although not back to normal I was no longer dizzy and the tears I had barely noticed before were beginning to subside.

I sat and waited patiently for my mum to arrive hoping, one that she wasn't too mad, and two that she didn't ask me any questions.
