Cassie looked out the R.V.'s window. She was sitting at the kitchen table watching the guys pack up their tents and all other equipment. She couldn't help but sigh. Her mother looked up from cleaning the kitchen.
"Hun, he is only going to be gone for twenty-four hours. You'll survive." Cassie shot her mother a look. "Anyway. They say absence makes the heart grow founder."
"I say absence is a loud of crap." She got up and walked out side leaving her mother chuckling in the R.V.
Every camping trip the men went off on a hike further into the camping ground to a small lake where they fished and did boy things. Cassie never got the appeal. She was just as happy to stay at the camper and watch chick flicks with her mum and sisters drinking virgin daiquiri's and such.
Cassie leaned on the R.V. watching Greg with her dad. Her big brother George came and stood beside her. She looked up at him. Her brother George was the tallest of all the kids at 6'5". He was always thin and gangly. He looked a lot like Nick though.
"How ya doing squirt?" She glared up at her older brother.
"Don't call me that!" He laughed at her putting his hand on her shoulder.
"You'll have to kill me first."
"That can be arranged." Cassie mumbled annoyed. George laughed again. Then followed Cassie's line of sight. "Ah, don't worry, Nick and I will look out for him!"
"That was what I was afraid of." Cassie said looking from Greg to her brother.
"Okay look. I won't throw him to the fishes if you don't decapitate Teresa." Cassie rolled her eyes. She never actually told her brother she hated Teresa but then she really didn't have to. The two girls just didn't get along.
"I'll be good." Cassie said smiling at her brother evilly.
"Yeah you better be." With that George put his hand on her head and messed up her hair and walked off. Cassie ran her fingers through her hair and looked over at Greg who was coming over to her.
He looked great. He was wearing loose old jeans and grey tee shirt and a plaid shirt open on top of it. He stopped in front of her and smiled down at her.
"Hey gorgeous." Cassie smiled as Greg wrapped his arms around her waist. She put her arms around his neck.
"Hey. I had a brilliant idea. We can shave your legs and call you Shirley and you can stay here with me!" Greg laughed.
"As inviting as that sounds I think I will go with your dad." Cassie shrugged at his response.
"I thought it was worth a shot." Greg nodded and kissed her on the forehead.
"Good try though."
"I thought so."
"Greg! Time to head out!" Her dad called from the other side of the R.V. Cassie hugged Greg tighter.
"Be careful kay?"
"Actually I was hoping to be down right careless." Cassie shook her head then kissed Greg. "See ya soon."
Cassie nodded as she let go of him. She waved the guys off. Her mother put her arm around Cassie's shoulders. "He'll be back before you even miss him."
Her mum was wrong though. Cassie already missed him.
