Because

Chapter 3


Author's Note: I am soooo sorry I haven't updated in such a long time. Seriously, I should be nominated for being so completely irresponsible. But here's a chapter, which might (hopefully) cover up for my absence. Thanks to all the reviewers. This is for all of you.

Summary: This is set before Bridget goes back home from summer camp in the first book. What if Eric followed his instincts and gave in to a relationship with Bee? What would the counselors say about that? Will he fight for love? Bee's heading home next week, would they spend enough time together? Okay, 'nough rambling. I hope I didn't get you confused.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything. Except the stuff I own. But I don't own Sisterhood. I only own copies of the books.


Eric woke up early the next day. It seemed as if he never had any sleep at all. Okay, so he slept for what, two hours? That barely even counted as a nap.

He walked into the cafeteria of the camp and settled into a seat round the table especially for councilors. He took a bite out of his toast. That's when he saw her.


Bee sat down on her usual spot at the table with her soccer camp friends. One of them was talking about new defensive tactics for the next week's match, but Bridget didn't care to listen. She was more preoccupied with the things Eric told her.

Come to think of it, Eric was being self-absorbed. He cared only about himself. He was more concerned of what was to happen if the camp founded them out. He didn't want to take the risk. Bridget just couldn't stand people like that. She wanted Eric out of her head, settling that he was just another boy.

It was then at that moment that Bee decided to look at boys in a much different light. They're not the girl-following little midgets and play toys Bridget used to think they were. They could really hurt you. Bee used to do the exact opposite, all she had to do before was either accept dates or reject offers from different guys… But with Eric, she just had to take it.

All in all, Bridget was not all right. She was depressed. She didn't want to do anything anymore. She wanted out of this stupid camp. She just was not okay.


Eric hesitated for a while, but decided that he was going to have to come up with the accurate conclusions regarding his feelings about Bridget.

So what really happened that night? He was only being selfish. He cared more about what the camp would say. He didn't want to risk his reputation through dating one of his beautiful and appealing campers who he was sure he liked – loved, even. How could he have acted so stupid in front of like that?

One thing was certain. He was going to talk to Bridget again, and hopefully straighten things out, for real this time.

Leave the crap out.

If he could handle it.
