After everyone had headed back to their respective cabins, all of the campers began to arrive.
Jason sat quietly at the single wooden desk in his small cabin, a spiral notebook and blue pen in front of him, ready to sign each of his kids in. The first to arrive were Eric Welles and Andy Cook, followed by Bo Bender and Jose Gonzales. After each of the guys had chosen a bunk and thrown all their stuff down, they all grouped together in a circle with Jason. "Okay you guys, I know that most of you have been to Camp White Branch before, but I've still gotta tell you all the rules and what's going on…" He began. (blah blah blah blah blah) "…Okay. I'm done, now you guys can have some fun. We're going to be meeting up in the field in a couple of minutes to find out what exactly we're going to be doing. You guys have about five minutes of free time." He said, looking at his watch. "And because I know what kind of guys you are, you can go and check out all the girls!" He teased with a mock wink. The boys grinned, running out the door to find girls.
Belle and Chloe sat at their desks, signing each of their girls into the notebooks. "Hey Kyle, Meghan! How've you guys been?" Chloe asked the two girls. "Awesome!" They both answered excitedly. Chloe understood their excitement. She too always felt butterflies in her stomach when she got to camp. She understood the excitement of meeting up with old friends…and boyfriends… "Vanessa! You're hair!" Belle squealed, breaking Chloe's daydream as she tweaked the girls blue, shoulder length hair. "It's so different from last years buzz cut!" She said. Chloe laughed. Yup, this is camp.
After they signed all of the girls in, Chloe and Belle talked about all the camp rules and what their schedule would be. "So, the first thing we need to do is go to the field, then we'll get to see what we do next." Belle announced, glancing at her watch. "I just hope it's dinner!" A brunette named DeAnna called out, all the girls agreeing. After the girls finished up the room, they headed towards the direction of the field.
When Brady and Shawn's groups finally arrived for the meeting, everyone had already settled in. All of Chloe and Belle's girls were around them, talking about clothes, hair, and sports. Shawn could tell that all the girls already loved them. He just hopped he and Brady would have as much luck with their boys as Chloe and Belle were having with their girls.
After group assignments, the two teams headed off in different directions. Belle, Chloe, Brady, and Shawn' group stayed at the field for games, while Mimi, Alexx, and Jason's group went to the lodge for arts and crafts.
After the kids were settled down, they got to choose which sport they wanted to play. Baseball, or football.
Only a couple of kids chose to do football, while the rest of them did baseball.
After Belle and Shawn had split the teams for baseball they started the game. Shawn's boys were great, but Belle's girls were awesome. After playing for over an hour, the final score was six to eight in the girls favor. Belle loved every minute of it. Watching the kids slide into home, or hit a homerun. It was a highlight. And it made it even better knowing that Shawn could enjoy it with her.
After Chloe handed the guys the football, Chloe and her girls stood on one end of the field, while Brady and his boys stood on the other. Before the game started, they looked clean, but by the time the game ended, and they stood at their ends of the field, they were all covered in dirt. Brady laughed, remembering the look on Jeff's face just before Vanessa tackled him. A pig pile insured. Brady brushed some of the dirt off of his old blue jeans, but gave up. At least everybody else was just as dirty as he was. He grinned, looking at Chloe contentedly. He wasn't sure if counselors were supposed to have as much fun as he was having, but he was having a blast!
Mimi's kid's all lined up at the mess hall doors, anxiously waiting to get their food. Doing arts and crafts wit macaroni was not a good idea when you had an empty stomach. After waiting a couple of minutes for Dean to finally let them enter, the kids all crowded their way in, her and Alexx's girls all smushing into one table.
After getting comfortably situated and having a plate of food in front of her and her girls, Mimi took the opportunity to look around at her fellow councilors. She hadn't had a chance to look at them before, and definitely didn't want to miss out on anything or anyone. Especially a new guy!
First she looked at the girls. There was Alexx, her next door neighbor. She was a tall, thin girl with strawberry blonde hair and bright green eyes. She was sweet, but kinda quiet.
Then there was her best friend Belle. Belle was a cute, petite blonde with gorgeous blue eyes. No wonder all the guys loved her.
Last there was Chloe. She wasn't pretty. She was gorgeous. She had an exotic look to her, with her long legs and even longer dark brown hair. She could make any guy drool. Not only that, she was intelligent, beautiful…everything Mimi wasn't.
Mimi was average. Nothing to special. She wasn't ugly, but she wasn't gorgeous either. The only thing that stood out about her was her mouth. She talked a lot, and always made people laugh.
She and Chloe had always had a friendly rivalry going on at camp each year. Who could be the funnest counselor, who could get the guy…everything. And Chloe always won. Mimi thought back to a few hours before when they were waiting on the field. She remembered how Belle and Chloe's girl's had flocked around them, and how much they already adored her, while Mimi and Alexx's girls were definitely still warming up to them. She sighed, giving up. She'd just have to check out all the guys. Maybe there was by some miracle a date-worthy guy there that year…or maybe it was wishful thinking.
First there was Brady Black. He was damn sexy! And she didn't mind admitting it. A girl would have to be crazy not to think so, with his blonde hair and gorgeous blue eyes. A girl could melt! But he was definitely off limits. And definitely a guy she'd never date. For one, he was Belle's big brother, but he also was totally not interested, he was way into another girl.
And Shawn Brady's definitely hot too. But also a person she couldn't date. He only had eyes for Belle, and they'd practically been married since they were four! Another guy that wasn't interested. Y'know, they always say the great guys are already taken…
Dean was wayyy to old, and wayyy to married. But there was the new guy, Jason.
Jason Maters was definitely hot! And she was definitely attracted to him…and he seemed available…Mimi grinned, staring at Jason intently. Maybe this counselor thing wasn't that bad of an idea. Meet new people, hang out with her friends, and meet a guy. The perfect summer girlfriend. A guy you could date for the summer, then never see again! How could a girl get so lucky!
Belle looked over at all the of her kids finishing up the "log name game" which is a game where you stand on a log and try to get in alphabetical order without saying anything, or falling off of the log. After four tries, they managed to do it.
After the game was over, Belle decided to observe each of her fellow counselors. Brady and Chloe were standing next to each other, joking around with a group of their kids, while Shawn was racing a couple of Chloe's girls up 'Pain Hill.' Belle watched contentedly, somehow peaceful amid the noise, suddenly she felt a pair of strong arms reach round her waist, and a pair of hands cover her eyes. "Guess who!" Shawn called in a sing-song voice. "Shawn Douglas Brady!" She screeched as he spun her around in a dizzying circle. A group of their campers began to surround them, most of the girls giggling and the boys making gagging noises. After Shawn set her down, she looked at the group of kids around them, a deep red blush creeping up on her face, which only got worse when she realized her brother was commenting. "What did I tell you about messing around with my sister!" He joked with Shawn. "Not in front of the children!" He scolded, pretending to smack Shawn's hands with a ruler. "Yes sir!" Shawn said, saluting him.
Later that night, while the kids and counselors at a group of picnic tables, Belle people watched again. This time she watched Chloe and her big brother Brady again. Brady picked up a black ballpoint pen and started writing something on Chloe's arm. In big, bold, black letters, Brady had writing: Diva loves Wild Thing. Chloe looked down and laughed, showing all the kids around her the new body art he'd given her at their insistence. The girls all squealed, and all of the kids started singing in a loud chorus, "Brady and Chloe sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G…" After the group of kids had finished their song, meaning ten rounds, Brady had the kids all make a messy line, and led them to the large bonfire to roast marshmallows to make s'mores. Then to sing camp songs. The group sang, they roasted, and they ate until they were more then full. Brady sighed, that was the life.
Jason stared at Mimi, but he couldn't realize exactly why. She was helping a short girl with blonde hair roast a marshmallow, but Jason couldn't tear his eyes away. He loved the way the fire highlighted her face, and he decided that it made her look even more beautiful hen usual…Jason paused. This was wrong. He couldn't think about Mimi like that. He just met her, and it was complicated…But she's so beautiful…Jason shook his head, trying to free himself from the thoughts. Suddenly they were interrupted when someone tapped him on the shoulder. Jason jumped a mile high, turning to the person in front of him. "Are you okay Jason? You seem kinda edgy." Mimi asked, raising an eyebrow. "Oh, yeah, I'm fine." He finally choked out in a whisper. Mimi nodded unconvinced. "Well, I just wanted to tell you that it's time to go and have cabin time with your kids." She said, turning to go. Jason nodded, rushing off. When he reached his cabin door he sighed, leaning against the door jam. "Smooth Jase. Real smooth."
Jason sat quietly at the single wooden desk in his small cabin, a spiral notebook and blue pen in front of him, ready to sign each of his kids in. The first to arrive were Eric Welles and Andy Cook, followed by Bo Bender and Jose Gonzales. After each of the guys had chosen a bunk and thrown all their stuff down, they all grouped together in a circle with Jason.
