The next day, we all wake up to a fire alarm. Causing everybody to panic and run out of the cabin. We all hear Chris laughing. I groan, not having the time to curse out Chris for his fucked up tactics. But as my eyes become more clearer, I see that we're not on grass?! But on a platform!?
Well to be specific, we were on the deck while their was a big pool floatie in front of us.
"Welcome Campers!" Chris says. "Today is where the real challenge starts!~ Oh! I forgot your Team Names!" Chris hits his forehead with his palm. "Team 1.." as Chris points to my team "Are named the shooting stars!" Really? Shooting Stars? Cody looked at me as I cringed, giggling a bit. "And Team 2 are the running trains!" Trent looked confused. "Running Trains?" Chris looked at Trent saying "Yep! I couldn't think of anything else." As he scratched his head, but. Chris goes back to the challenge and how it works.
Chris walks to get a fluffy looking pole. Chris explains that you need to knock off the other teams members into the water when you're on the floaty. I was excited to see people get knocked off, but I also realized that I had to participate. I groaned in anger. But Chris told our team that one of us had to sit out since we had more team members. I volunteered to sit down as Chris agreed. I sat down on the deck dangling my feet on the edge of the deck into the water. I doze asleep a little as everybody makes their plan for the challenge.
SINCE I DIDN'T ANNOUNCE WHOM WAS ON WHOS TEAM I'LL ANNOUNCE IT HERE!
TEAM 1 (Shooting Stars)
Noah Cody Gwen
Lindsay Owen Justin Geoff
Beth Heather Leshawna Bridgette
Team 2 (Running Trains)
DJ Courtney Duncan
Eva Sadie Katie
Izzy Tyler Harold Trent
I wake up to hear Lindsay screaming as she fell into the water. Hearing Eva chuckle.
As Gwen and Trent about to go against each other I slide next to Cody asking him "What's the score?" Cody sweated a bit as he moved away an inch, "the score is 6 to 4. So far we're winning." He said. I gave him a thumbs up before watching Gwen and Trent go on the floatie.
"Hi.." Gwen said to Trent and he replied with "Hey..." It's obvious both of them got a thing going on. But again, I do feel bad for Cody. But, y'know what's weird? He isn't sad? I mean, it's not like I want him to be sad but wouldn't you be upset if your crush was flirting with somebody else?
Chris snaps his fingers. "Come on Love Birds we need a winner here!" They both nervously rubbed their neck with their hand, sweating while blushing. "That's it! CHEF! BRING OUT THE SHARKS!" Gwen and Trent both panic as they see Chef bring out the sharks.
The sharks started shaking the floatie. Trent and Gwen both go after each other since none of them wanted to get eaten by the sharks. In the end, Trent got knocked down in 4 minutes from Gwen. "Trent! I'm sorry!" Gwen rushes to Trent as he's in the water.
IN THE END, TEAM 2 WON FROM 8 to 6.
"We should get rid of Noah!" Heather said inside the cabin. "He technically did nothing for the team!" Before I could say anything, Cody stood up for me saying "Somebody had to sit out anyways! Heather, if somebody else sat down you would still blame them?"
I looked shocked that Cody even said something. Y'know. Cody looks like one of those goofy kiddos. Not somebody who would take someone's situation into his hands.
Heather crosses her arms "Well somebody needs to go regardless!" Leshawna stepped in saying "You should be gone Heather! Thinking you're the boss of this cabin." While Heather and Leshawna are idiotically arguing.
I get a bit nervous, thinking I'll get eliminated. I lay in my bed waiting for the night to start anxiously...
CEREMONY
Well... This is it. The time I get voted off..
Chris revealed the votes
"5 for Noah"
"3 for Lindsay"
"3 for Heather"
Well. This is it.
"Butttt" Chris said smiling "Today is a non elimination round!" I looked kind of shocked.
I thought I would be out faster than ever. Cody gives me a little smile while listening to Chris. "Noah, find out who are your enemies... same for Lindsay and Heather! Who will be the next eliminated?" Chris say as he walks up to the deck, cameras following him. "Find out on the next episode of! TOTAL! DRAMA! ISLAND!" Chris puts his hands up.
"Alright! That's a rap. Back to your cabins before midnight." Chris said as he walked away to his cabin with Chef.
Everybody walking off with me at the back walking slowly. I'm really glad I didn't get eliminated! Don't get me wrong, I don't care THAT much about the game but it would be embarrassing to be off as the 2nd contestant. I could be the 4th but not 2nd!
I'm 10 minutes late to the cabin since I was walking slow, but as I'm close to the cabin I see somebody standing their. I go faster to see who it is.
Of course...
The gapped toothed kid.
Don't get me wrong, I don't hate him but sometimes is he just annoying..
"H-hey Noah.." Cody says nervously.
"What are you doing here?" I asked
"Well.." Seeing him hold two juice boxes. "I was wondering if we could go to the lake and talk a bit.." He rubbed his neck. I can tell he's nervous since he does that a lot.
"Sure, I need to get the whole elimination thing off my mind a bit.." I said. "Lead the way"
I follow Cody to the lake when we sat down on the sand.
"I was so nervous you would get eliminated!" Cody said sadly while handing me a juice box.
I put my hand on Cody and said
"걱정하지 마세요. 지금 여기 있어요."
Cody looked confused. I looked confused for a second then gasped.
"S-sorry!" I said. "It meant don't worry, I'm here now. I usually speak in korean whenever I'm nervous. I-I I mean w-when I-Im!-"
Cody stopped my stammering with a giggle.
I smiled. That smile turned into a frown in a second. Noah. What are you doing?! Getting along with a kid? Pfft. No way.
"It's fine! But how do you know Korean?" Cody asked
"Well I learned then from korean dramas and books! I love them so! Especially romance ones!" I said
Cody's eyes beamed a bit. "Romance?!" He said surprised
I turned away a bit looking embarrassed "Yeah! I like romance. S-so what?"
Cody laughed. "No it's not that!" He moved a bit closer to me. "I love romance dramas aswell! I usually try reading some in my spare time."
"Oh!" I laughed, turning back to Cody.
In that moment as I turned back.
Our noses touch.
We both turned hot red and we turn away from each other, bumping our heads a bit.
We looked at each other again. Then laughed for a hot minute.
I told Cody that I'd better go to bed.
He said he'll stay their for a while.
We both parted ways.
BONUS! (Cody's thought at the lake)
As I watch Noah leave I land down on the sand.
Am I really gay? Or no no not that. Am I bisexual?
I roll around in the sand on my back. I get up and fluff my hair.
I mean. I don't have a thing for Gwen. I did but it slowly dyed down after her hangout with Trent.
I-I
Before I could even confirm my answer.
The scene with Noah and Me touching noises came up in my head.
I turned red and I get up from the sand, dust myself off and ran into the cabin. Going to bed.
— — — — — — — — — — —
When I woke up, it was noon?! Wasn't their a challenge today?
I get up to see Lindsay and Beth. I sigh a bit as I reallly didn't want to talk to nerd camp girl and dumb blondie.
I asked them. "Isn't their a challenge today?"
"Challenge?" Lindsay said confused. "Oh! Do you mean a shopping challenge?!"
"No Lindsay.. He meant the total drama challenges we do." Beth said putting her hand on her shoulder.
"Ohhh!" Lindsay said as I groan.
"But no Noah there's no challenge today, Chris let us have a day without any cameras." Beth said
"Thanks." I replied annoyed, I get out of bed to get out of the cabin to go to the cafeteria. I know Chef's food is disgusting but hey. I still have some hope that today will be a good day.
I walk into the cafeteria with my hands in my pockets as I see Trent. Can't believe I'm actually doing this..
I walk up to Trent giving him a wave saying "Hey Trent! Whatca doing?" Really Noah, "whatca"?!
I've gone insane.
Trent was surprised that I cane to talk to him first. But he answered with a "I'm just eating these potato chips while listening to music."
"Ahh." I said. I sit next to Trent while asking him if I could listen to his music.
He said sure as he gave me a ear bud.
I blew on the ear piece a bit. Y'know no germs in my ears. As I put the ear piece in my ear.
Trent hands me one of his potato chips.
I smile a bit as I accept the potato chips.
CODYS POV
(Not really a bonus but it's needed)
I walk into the cafeteria looking for Noah.
First thing I see when I walk in is Noah and Trent. I shrugged it off thinking their friends and that I should join.
But I realized something. Noah was smiling? Smiling?! I barely see Noah smile. And I never see Trent and Noah hang out till now!
I don't know why but I feel a bit sick. Not like I have the flu but, like something's in my stomach. Like butterflies! butterflies! But I'm not nervous? Am I?
Y'know I'm not the one to get jealous. But what even is this feeling?
I see Noah glaring at me.
I quickly panic as I walk over to them, trying to hide the fact that I'm sweating.
"H-hey guys" I said nervously. Is it obvious I'm to nervous?
"Hey." Noah said as he continued to listen to the music.
"Sup dude!" Trent said as he took off the ear piece. "What brought you here?"
"Well I-I was just kind of bored so I came in here to see if one of you guys were in here!" I said.
"Mmm..." Noah said under his breath.
Did he know I was staring at then before?!
"Well Me and Noah were just chilling." Trent said coolly.
"W-well could I-" Before I could finish, Noah got up from his seat.
"I'm getting tired. I'll talk to you guys later." Noah said
"But you just.."
Noah walked off stretching his hair before I could finish.
"woke up..." I said sadly as he already walked off
"What's wrong Cody?" Trent said confused
"Nothing much. Just really sad that Chefs cooking's the worst!" I said trying to hide the fact that I was kind of disappointed.
"Oh! That makes sense." Trent said as he laughed.
"Well I better get going, I just remembered that I had to clean the cabin." I said
"But we don't clean-"
I walked off before hearing Trent. All the voices around me just faded.
I kept wondering
"Is he avoiding me on purpose?"
If he was...
Then why?
— — — — — — — — — — —
In all honesty. I was tired.
I stayed up all the way till 2am reading my book in the dark.
I hope Cody didn't take it as me flaking because of him being their.
