Miranda winced as Lizzie rubbed the aloe gel on her arms and back. The
first day of training had been a lot harder than she had originally
anticipated. They mainly worked on team building skills and learning how to
deal with children. Miranda had begun to take a liking to Ty and they
worked together on a lot of the mini-projects with Gordo and Lizzie. Wyatt
had been looking especially cute that day. Miranda thought that she was
growing to like him more and more. The day had started off easily enough a
nice breakfast of French toast and bacon and eggs. They were assigned to
eat at tables in the mess hall according to group number so they all got to
sit together. They also go to see Kate, tugeman, Ethan and Claire who had
decided to sign up at the last minute. Kate gave them dirty looks and
Tudgeman waved. Ethan said "yo Lizzie!" and Lizzie's eyes had instantly
glazed over with that dreamy look. Miranda hated that look. It made her
want to punch her best friend.
Then the first activity of the day.the trusts fall. Kate had squealed that her hair would get messed up, and Miranda winced when Charlie went to do the trust fall because it was her job to catch her head, therefore touching her atrocious hair. When it was finally Miranda turn she walked up the ladder and fell backwards into the fellow counselors arms. She was delighted to see that Wyatt set her down quite gingerly and gave her that big goofy grin of his.
Then came swimming. She caught Bax and Wyatt and even Gordo gazing at her and Lizzie in their matching bikinis. Lizzie's had a white background with Cherries and Miranda's had a black background with cherries all over it. They were given a test on their swimming abilities and she hadn't done too hot. It didn't really bother her though. She wasn't interested in being in charge of the swimming unit. They were going to be given their assignments at the end of this week and then they had the full other week of training to be educated in their specific field. After the swimming had come Nature. Miranda hated nature. They walked in the woods and she got a million bug bites and terrible sunburn.
After that came the dancing part. Miranda loved dancing but she was no match for Kate and Claire and their cheerleading flexabilities. The steps were really complicated and she didn't think that she would be the best to counsel the children who were coming for dance camp. Lizzie had looked confused as well. Then was cooking. A mess. That's all Miranda had to say about that. She had screwed up her and Ty's cherry pie to an extensive amount. Not fun. Then came lunch. She was embarrassed to eat like such a pig in front of the boys but she was starving. She scarfed down three sloppy Joes in no time flat. The rest of the day was pretty much a blur. The only thing that Miranda had half enjoyed was the horseback riding. She wasn't too good at it but she wasn't bad at it either and that made her happy.
The group returned to the mess hall tired, hungry and eager to devour their dinners. Jackie told them that they would be preparing a dinner of hotdogs at their own respective cabins over the fire pits that they had been provided with. Miranda was pisssed. The boys decided to be cute and fixed dinner for the girls while they took their naps. After dinner they shared their life stories. Some were sad and others were interersitng Miranda couldn't help but feel that hers had been quite boring. Wyatt was from a traditional Italian family and they grew up as a very large and close family. He was living with his brother at his ranch because he had decided last year that he "needed his freedom" Miranda was jealous. This kid could do whatever he wanted. Ty's story was quite sad. Her father had abandoned her when she was born and her mother was currently struggling with cancer. She was living with her aunt and had been sent to Camp Oakbridge to see if it would take her mind off things. Baxter's parents were musicians and ex-hippies he dreamed off being an actor. Miranda was privileged to have such a group of interesting people. She wondered if Kate was telling the story of her life. She almost laughed out loud and her describing how much money she had.
It was about 9:00 now and the girls were putting aloe on eachother's burning backs. After they were done Lizzie announced that she was going on a walk with Gordo and Ty said that she wanted to catch some shuteye before the next day of training. Miranda walked outside and stood on the porch of the girls' cabin. It was dark out besides a lantern on the floating dock and one lit on the boys' porch. The girls had not lit theirs yet. Miranda made a mental note to do so before going to bed. They were pretty deep in the woods and if she got up to go to the bathroom with a limited amount of light it could be a scary ordeal. Baxter walked by and said he was heading to the shower. Miranda had taken one right after dinner and warned him about the lack of warm water.
She was about to go to bed when Wyatt walked over.
"So you wanna go for a swim panda," he said with that playful smile of his.
"Umm it's like 9:00 Wy!"
"Aww cmon it'll be fun"
"Hmm sure why not!" she said and without saying another word she turned and ran inside to throw on her swimsuit.
"NO PEAKING!" she yelled through the window at Wyatt.
More to come! Had to leave a little suspense. Lol. Thanks to starcraze for the helpful comment. Please R&R to let me know if I should continue with this story. I'm new to fanfictions so BE KIND!
