Disclaimer-Don't own characters, some of the counslers names are from 4-H camp in Windham/Tolland and this is inspired by a semi-true story some details are however fake. Hope you enjoy!
POV- Camper named Alexandria Derainio.
We were walking on a path in Nature class when I hear over the motorola "Has anybody seen camper Amanda Kardon?". Amanda is one of my cabin mates in the cabin Hacienda. If I remember right she was from Coventry,CT and should be Archery with Tammy.
"She's not in Outdoor Survival." I hear Captain Phil say.
"Or Drama." Leila added. I hear the rest of the counslers go through their activities saying she's not there and I start to worry. Amanda could still be in the boathouse, girls area, or Hacienda?
"Do you need a runner to help?" my favorite counsler John Y asks. They told him yes and he took off his backpack and ran. Now my nerves are driving me insane when the missing camper horn go's off. We all rise to our feet and begin to walk to the sports room. Counslers are running, life-guards are diving into the water looking for her body, and the camp director is on the phone with the police in New York City. Special Victims Unit I hear her say.
Where are you Amanda?
Life-guards are still diving when the police arrive. John Y. returned with no luck or trace of Amanda. Tammy is crying and muttering "I should have kept a better eye on Amanda it's all my fault!" A man and a woman walk in and show the camp director their badges. She nods and takes them into her office. My eyes close and I lean my head back onto Tammy's chest. Tears threaten to fall but I hold them back when I hear John Y. , and Sir Phil (another counsler) call out my cabin. When I open my eyes the woman and man I saw earlier were looking around and Sir Phil calling my name this time with a hint of annoyance.
"Alexandria Derainio come here!" I slowly rise to my feet and walk over to him.
"These are Detective's Olivia Benson and Elliot Stabler." He points to them and returns to talking to me.
"They are the Detective's on Amanda's case and since you were technically her best friend here I want you to show them Hacienda." My eyes meet the woman detective Olivia's eyes and I think she notices the pain in them because she walks over and gives me a smile of reassurance with a little shoulder squeeze. I nod and start to walk to the lodge door.
"Thank you." Elliot Stabler says as he follows me.
When we reach Hacienda I just lost it. All the memories I had with Amanda 'till now flooded back into my head. My knees go week and I start to shake violently, sobbing loudly. Olivia raced over to me and caught me before I hit the ground.
"Shhh, shhh it's o.k, just breath, come on Alexandria look at me!" she instructed softly. I look into her dark brown eyes, they reminded me of a mother comforting her baby, she rubbed my back until the crying subsided and helped me stand again. She waved her hands over at Elliot telling him to go in. He walked in but Olivia stayed with me, holding me to her chest. My breathing was still fast and panicky and the detective kept telling me to match my breathing to her's.
"Alex, do you mind if I call you that, it's o.k we're gonna find her."
So what do you think? Stupid? or excellent? I know it's short but I need to know if I should continue or not.
