Chapter 2

"Morning! Get up, get up!" my younger brother yelled at me, jumping on my bed. I tackled him as soon as I got the chance. It was not even six am, and there was . . . Shane?

"YOU are awake early!" I said, looking surprised.

"I know, they are never on the same sentence."

Shane glared at Nate and punched his arm.

"Ouch! Idiot!"

"Would you like another to make a matching set?"

"Shane, keep your hands to yourself. So, why are we up at four in the morning again?"

"Jason, it is the best time to watch birds."

"Really?" I asked, that would have been so sweet of him.

"No. I was being sarcastic." Shane went on to explain how we had to help his girlfriend. Nate and I wiggled eyebrows.

"So, how did the moonlit picnic go?"

"It didn't go, anywhere. She was too busy for me."

"Is that why we have to go wake up everybody? Not funny Shane."

"Come on guys! Help your homie."

Nate and I exchanged a look. Oh, well, it is not like Shane gave us a choice.

"Ok, let's go."


Nate and Caity had been gazing at each other during practice, again. I had this feeling that Caity was not so comfortable having Nate near her, watching her dance with her crew. I left the Junior rockers and headed over to her when she took a short break.

"You still like him, don't you?"

Caity looked up at me with those sparkly grey-green eyes. They had always held intense emotions. They were one part of her body if mauled that I would never leave. (ookay. That came out wrong.)

She sighed, "But guys like him do not fall for girls like me."

"Ha, Nate likes you a lot. Truth be told, he likes you a lot. Did I ever tell you that before we became famous, the three of us really wanted to get to know you but Nate was the one who fell the hardest for you. He even used to dream about you, and the proof was the sleep talking."

"Nate sleep-talks?"

"Shh! He shouldn't hear you."

We both looked at him. At that moment, he happened to glance at us, so we waved at him.

"Jason! Come help us!" one of the junior rockers called to me as I was staring at my brother.

"Thanks Jason. You just made me feel better."

"You are welc . . . oh my! Look at that huge eagle flying over the lake?"

As I stared, I heard Caity and Ella giggle. . . wait, Ella?


After Shane and Mitchie made up, we decided to rock the camp with our song, 'Heart and Soul' and we had everyone on their feet. I winked at Ella at some point and she blushed. I saw Caity look from her to me, then me to her, before she yelled out," go Jella! Go Jella!"

Okay, I don't think many people heard her, but it was enough to make Ella blush.

Mitchie apologized for pushing me away later on, and was proud of my junior rockers. She wanted them in the loop. While I was hanging out with just her, she gave me some "girl talk" advice. She had heard Caity yell at us. I expected her to be surprised but she just smiled.

"I expected you and her to like each other."

"Turns out that we did."

Hey, are you free tonight?-Jason

Yup, but I have to get buttons tomorrow. –Ella

Can I borrow you then?-Jason

Sure, that is if I won't turn into dress.-Ella

So, meet me at the pier at 8?-Jason

Sure. See you then!-Ella

I made it to the pier and sat down, watching the luminous eyes of owls near the lake. I saw Screech owls, a barn owl. . . oh, look, a sleeping pigeon!

"It's beautiful tonight, isn't it?"

"Yes, look at the moon," I said as we both stared, Ella and I. she hadn't even scared me when she came. I was so intent on staring at the full moon, but after I heard her talk, my attention got a little distracted. I found myself staring at her instead. The moon lit up her features delicately, and I swear she looked even more beautiful.

"Jay," she called, and I came to.

"Huh?"

"Where are we going?"

"Oh, yeah. Are you up for a boat ride?"

"Okay," she said, smiling, and I got up then helped her up. When our fingers came in contact, I felt sparks and tingles. I was a little startled, so was she. We stared at each other and then she cleared her throat.

Oh, yes, the boat ride.


Hanging out with Ella was fun, but at half past ten, I had to go. I was no longer sleeping in the same cabin as my brothers.

Our goodbye ended with a tight hug from Ella. Wow, I almost lost myself for a minute. She was so small, tiny even, and when she wrapped her arms round me, I felt like even if there was an Armageddon, I wouldn't care or be fearful so long as I had her in my arms.

Wow Jason, you are so mature! What a big word you used!

"Which word?"

Apparently I had spoken my thoughts out loud. Oh no! How do I get out of this?

"Just random thoughts running through my mind."

"For a minute there I thought you were talking about my butt."

"Huh!?"

"I have a big butt, don't I? It is humongous, right?"

Oh no! How did I get myself into this situation? Oh, wait, it was my mouth that has a mind of its own. Stupid idiot!

"Did you just call me an idiot?"

Oh no! "No, I didn't . . ."

"I heard you," Ella said, looking like she was going to cry in the next minute. Oh my God, what do I do?

"Ella, I usually think out loud, and I was referring to my mouth as an idiot. Stupid idiot to be precise, and for the record, you have a nice bum. It is perfect, and I would never want to change anything about you, including your bum. Because you are perfect to me."

Ella's eyes were shining with unshed tears.

"You think so?" she stuttered.

"I know so," I said, taking her in my arms and giving her a huge hug. She immediately relaxed. When I let her go, it happened.

By it I mean my first kiss.

She kissed me, and I was so shocked, I couldn't kiss her back at first. When she tried to pull away, I pulled her back and kissed her. I swear it was the best feeling ever. It was almost as good as watching a little birdie hatching. In fact, it was probably better.

When we parted, after I walked her back to her cabin, I knew for a fact that everything had changed. Nate had given me the best advice ever. Hmm, he is to wise for a guy his age.

As I got into bed, (it was way past lights out in the junior rockers cabin) I couldn't stop smiling. That kiss was amazing, fantastic, awesome . . . and beautiful.

Look at me using big words again. Hmm, must be Nate's influence.


Nate was looking a little confused because he didn't really know if he had a crush on Dana or if he was in love with Caity. I found him with a pair of binoculars, watching the beach jam stage from his and Joe's cabin, formerly my cabin too.

"Hey Nate!" I said and it startled him so much, he fell down like a bird would from its perch on a tree.

"You people really have to stop doing that!"

"Sorry," I said, helping him up. "So, you and Turner's girl, how are things going?"

"Don't say it that way; she has a name you know. And it isn't going great."

"After she came, have you figured out what to do?"

"Yes, I wrote a song, which I should be playing in less than twenty minutes! I gotta go!"

As he rushed out, I took the binoculars and trained them in the direction he had been looking in. and sure enough, it was Caitlyn who came into sight. She was still doing the steps, leading the dancers eagerly.

At that moment Nate rushed back in and stood in front of me, blocking the view.

"What are you doing, Jason?"

"What were you doing Nate?"

He sighed, ran his fingers through his hair, then shook his head and looked at me, "I don't really know. I thought I wanted Caitlyn, but I want Dana too."

That was pretty complicated.

And Nate was in too deep. He had feelings for two girls. And he didn't know who he liked more. It is kind of confusing if you ask me.

"You have to figure out who you really want."

Nate glanced at me, then shook his head slowly, then grabbed a piece of paper on the table.

"I have to go," he said, slinging his guitar over his neck, and I nodded my head. He stuffed the paper into his shirt's breast pocket and left, just as Shane walked into the cabin, smiling goofily.

"I think I am in love with Mitchie."

I looked at him, "clearly."

"Anyways, where is Nate going off to in such a hurry?"

"He needs to go save his ass with Dana."

"Wait, I thought he liked Caitlyn!"

I shrugged my shoulders as Shane looked at me. He looked a little disturbed, but eventually sighed before sitting down.

"Sad story for Caitlyn, huh?"

"Nate is still in love with her. I found him with these binoculars looking in the direction of the stage."

"Wait, But Caity is on the stage!" he said after looking through them. "These are really good ones though. The same he used when he was watching Dana."

What can I say? My little brother is in love with two girls and he is at crossroads.

"Oi, look at that robin outside!" I yelled, pointing and Shane rolled his eyes.

Ugh, why do I even try? He will never understand. But Mitchie does understand. And the best part? She never throws stones at the birds like Shane does.

Stupid idiot!

"Did you just call me an idiot?"

Stupid mouth!
