SUMMER LOVIN' FUN

Chapter 1 – BUMP & RUN

The last bell, at the university, rang. Connie Murough breathed a sigh of relief. They were now officially out of school. They had survived four years of high school and all of college. She remembered how shocked they all had been when they realized that they had all been accepted to U of M on a hockey scholarship. The team had been so worried about being split apart, but now their worries were over. In two days the team was due to leave for the campground. They had decided to go on a two-week camp out, in the Manistee National Forest and do some river rafting, on the Pine River, in celebration. As Connie picked up her books and rushed out of the bio-lab, she ran right into Guy.

"Hey," she said, "are you ready to start packing?

"Hun, I don't need to pack yet… were not leaving for two days," replied Guy.

"Oh Ya, I forgot that men don't take as long to pack." retorted Connie.

"Plus, we don't have as much to pack, all that makeup takes up a lot of space, right?"

"Guy, you know darn well that I, or Julie for that matter, don't wear a lot of that crap." Guy suddenly smiled.

"You know what," he said.

"What."

"I think that is the first time that you called me a man. Not a boy or a guy, a man. I'm impressed!"

"Get used to it 'sweet cakes'!"

"Hey…" Guy stopped short as Charlie walked by and smacked him on the shoulder.

"Don't you two ever quit fighting…no wait, its your trade mark," said Charlie as the bash brothers and the rest of the team approached.

"What are we talking about," asked Averman, "cream cheese?"

"No, Charlie was lecturing us about our relationship," replied Connie.

"I was just pointing out that the fact they're always fighting is their trademark," said Charlie.

"Naw," Fulton said, " I think its like one of those lamps… clap on clap off, that type of thing!" As the rest of the team joined the argument, Julie grabbed Connie and they slipped away, to talk girl talk.
