Ebony's Point of view
I scowled "Really" I muttered under my breath.
I was really peeved that Jennifer was with him. If she tried anything I swear to God things were not going to pretty and I wasn't going to be responsible for my actions if that day came. I took a deep breath I would get through this even though I was spending most of the summer with total strangers minus Michaela and the guys. I was really over this camp and it has barely started
"Jealous much?" someone whispered in my ear.
"No I'm not James why don't you go look in the mirror somewhere else," I snapped drawing attention to myself.
Kendall started to smirk and raised his eyebrow. "Monsters come get your assignments" the director called.
I let out a sigh of relief getting up and not having to argue any further. Our assignments went in silence neither of us seemed to be in the mind set to talk so we didn't. At the end of the day I went to the mess hall to sit with Michaela and the guys.
"How did your day go?" asked Kendall as I sat down.
"It really didn't my partner is like mute or something he like barely said hello I really don't know what's up with him. How did yours go?" I asked.
"Almost as bad as yours Kate barely spoke to me if I didn't talk it would've been silent the whole talking" he explained.
"How did yours go Michaela?" I asked.
"It was good. Nico is really funny he told me all about his life and stuff" she said.
I could see Logan start to scowl slightly making me smile.
"Yours?" I asked turning to Carlos.
"Alright" he said shrugging.
Something was up with him. He didn't say a word since he sat down. He didn't kiss me on the cheek when he sat down, he always does that. I narrowed my eyes then decided I would probe him about it later and nodded.
"How was yours?" I asked turning to James.
"Horrible. Tawni just talked about how pretty she was refused to do any work and looked in the mirror" he said annoyed.
"Wonder who that reminds me of" I said smirking.
"Oh shut up" he said rolling his eyes.
"How about yours Logan?"
"Annoying. All Macy talked about was Jonas she wouldn't shut up," he said putting his hands over his ears making us all laugh.
We ate dinner talking about stuff that wasn't really important enough to remember. I went to bed that night exhausted and woke up that morning in a no BS attitude. I sat next to the guys minus Kendall and James.
"Where are Kendall and James?" I asked sitting down.
"Hello to you too" Carlos said kissing my cheek I rolled my eyes. At least he was interacting with me again.
"Well?" I asked, still no one answered me.
"Yeah where are they" Michalea said sitting down next to me.
"Patrolling" Logan said finally.
"Elaborate please"
"We saw something last night. An immortal but there was something different about it we couldn't put our fingers on it so two of us before and after meals will patrol to make sure its something we could handle." Logan explained.
The first bell rang signaling that it was time to meet our kids and partners at the designated spot that we discovered yesterday. Getting there I saw 10 kids about 7 or 8 years old with Nick just sitting and staring at each other.
"Hey kids how's it going?" I asked as cheery as I could force.
"Good" they said together in the same monotone.
"What's wrong?" I asked in the same cheery tone.
No one answered me but one of them one of them pointed at Nick frowning. I pulled the list of activities that were planned for today.
"Don't worry about him why don't we get started with our activities for today" I offered.
"Yeah" they said now cheery.
By lunch I was ready to explode at Nick. I've gotten multiple complaints about his attitude and that was going to change by the time I'm done with him. At lunch I told the kids to wait there while I took Nick to get our lunch. Once we turned the corner I started to go off
"Can you at least put on an act for them?" I yelled.
He didn't respond just looked at the ground "Answer me! I mean what the hell is your problem?" he still didn't respond.
I was at my boiling point so I took a deep breath "None of you business" he said with an attitude trying to walk back to where we were.
I pushed him back "I don't give a damn either you put on a smile fake or not or next time we do this I won't be so peaceful" I spat walking back to the children.
About a month in it wasn't as bad I didn't have to beat up Nick to be nice he had a better attitude but was just as quiet. The kids were kids and the girls in my cabin were nice excluding Jennifer who I steered clear of knowing I'd blow a fuse. Every Friday we would all meet by the lake and just talk the night away and every Sunday we got off early. That morning I woke up to the usual trumpet sound I hate and felt not angry not upset but invincible like nothing would hurt me. I went to the mess hall and sat in my usual spot next to Michaela and Carlos. Michaela looked her usual no emotion but Carlos on the other hand looked deep in thought absent mindedly playing with his fingers.
"What's new," I asked no one in particular.
"Well we haven't seen any immortals or whatever's lately" Kendall said trying to start up any conversations possible.
"Good" I said picking at my food.
Soon the bell rang signaling that we had to go meet our partners and kids. Today was Friday so I was so ready for this day to be over so I could go hang out. The day went by in a blur before I knew it I was on my way to the mess hall for dinner.
"Where's Carlos?" I asked sitting down.
They all shrugged so I decided to go on eating and assumed that I would see him outside later. After dinner we went outside together I didn't see him but didn't trip he was probably doing whatever Carlos's do.
After it got dark I went looking for him now worried. I went all around the camp looking for him. I checked my phone now it was about 9 o'clock. I turned a corner and rubbed my eyes to make sure I was seeing correctly. There in front of me I saw Carlos and Jennifer her lips on his he must have heard me because he turned to look at me breaking the kiss. I turned on my heels and walked away not interested in anything he had to say. He caught up with me easily I cleared my face of all emotion. He grabbed my hand stopping me I turned to him "Ebony-" I put a warning hand up
"Listen I'm really tired and not in the mood for all of this. So whatever excuse you had in play lets just cancel it and call it over alright."
Before he could answer I was already running towards the cabin as fast as my legs could carry me. I changed and went to bed immediately went to bed not caring to do anything else. I woke up to the sound feeling hurt but ignoring it and putting on a mask of my usual demeanor. I stood in the breakfast line soon realizing that I was not hungry on my way to the usual table I bumped into Jennifer.
I passed her but she said something that made me crazy "He is a great kisser"
I took a deep breath ready to kill her but able to restrain it all until she mad one final comment
"Oh and by the way he kissed me" I lunged at her suddenly restrained by someone holding me by the shoulders dragging me outside and to the dock.
"What happened?" Kendall asked concerned.
I told him the whole story and he wore a hard scowl "Carlos get your ass out here!" he exclaimed.
Carlos was soon in sights I wouldn't look at him
"What?" he asked innocently.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" he asked evenly.
"Listen you need to know the whole story before you go blowing up at me. Okay before Ebony came along I thought that Jennifer was my mate. Then Ebony came along and I thought I was sure then we had the Jack incident and then I was in knee deep and couldn't explore anything. Now that I thought I was okay to go and explore so at dinner I had Jennifer stay with me so we could talk. It got the heavy and I had one final test so yeah I kissed her and made my decision. And it was-"
I got up and walked away I didn't need to hear anymore. After all that crap about how I was the one and he was mine. Blah blah blah blah. It didn't matter any more. Nothing mattered I just wanted to go home. When I say home I meant home. Harlem home, before I met any immortals and got into this mess. I had very rare moments like this but at that moment i really really wished I had never come to Hollywood
