How Camp Changed Everything

A/N I hope you like this chapter. It's fairly longer than the last one. Review and tell me if you think this story is stupid, or worth finishing. Thanks! Also I'd like to thank Kat. Who both reviewed and wrote to m to be in my story.

Chapter II Tents and Bunkmates
Kate was kind of glad that no one was sitting next to her. She took out a book and started to read to pass the time. After an hour, Kate fell asleep. She didn't wake up for two and a half hours. When she did, they had arrived at camp. She got off the bus with everyone else. She spotted Claire, who was looking incredibly secure and comfortable. Kate waited until she was assigned a cabin. Her cabin was called the Purple Fire. It was painted purple with pictures of fire. It kind of looked like the cabin was on fire.

Kate went in and dropped off her things. Then she heard the door open and Kate turned around. There she came face-to-face with Claire Miller, the most popular and mean girl in school. Claire's older sister was the captain of the cheerleading squad and next year, when Claire was in Junior High, she would almost automatically get a spot on the squad. Claire already thought of herself as cheerleading captain. Then Claire made a face and said, "You're not in this cabin too are you? Me and the other girls declared it a "Loser Free Zone." The other girls are doing their camp activities. So what are you doing here?" Claire talked so fast that Kate could barely understand her. "I am in this cabin too Claire so back off." As soon as she said this, Kate slapped her hand over her mouth. 'Who said that?' She thought.

"Whatever." Claire said and she left. Kate sat on her bed and started to write a letter to her three best friends. But she thought about what they would do if she told them it wasn't off to a good start and bad things were happening. Miranda would probably march right down there and get her. Claire would really humiliate her. She decided to lie.

????Dear Lizzie, Miranda, and Gordo, Camp is great! I'm right by the mess hall. Claire is right by the bathroom! My bunkmates are really nice and I have some great activities. Remember at my 9th birthday party? The sleepover? We talked about how wonderful camp would be? It's all that and more. I'm really happy here. Bye guys!

Your friend, Kate Sanders

Kate felt kind of guilty that she had totally lied, but at the moment a girl walked in so Kate hid the letter in her bag. The girl had strawberry- blonde hair and blue eyes. She was kind of tall. "Oh, hi. Who are you?" she said quietly.

"I'm uh. I'm Kate. Kate Sanders. And you are.?"

"I'm Kat Bates. Do you know where the other girls are?" So Claire was lying when she said, "Me and the girls already declared it a 'Loser Free Zone' " She hadn't even met the other girls. Kate thought. Kate decided to answer cleverly. "Oh well I know where a girl named Claire is. She's really mean and snobby. So you might think it suitable where she is. Waiting in line for the stinky bathrooms!" Kate laughed. So did Kat.

"Do you know where the other girl is?" Kat asked. Kate shook her head. "Just Claire."

"How do you know Claire?" Well, she is from Hillridge. So am I." "Oh Kate, you are so lucky to have someone you know here."

"Me? Lucky? Oh no. Claire is really mean. I wish I didn't know her. She is only nice to popular people. Are you popular at your school?"

"Sort of. I guess. We don't really have "popular people" at my school."

"Oh. Wait I think it's time for the campfire they were talking about. Let's go." And the two new friends ran off.
