Chapter 3
Tonight, the junior rockers and I are really bonding. Which is good, considering the fact that we started on a wrong note. By note, I don't mean the musical notes Do Reh Mi Fa So La Ti Do. I mean, we started off at a wrong footing. Things have also been going great with Ella. We have been hanging out in between the breaks. She is a very talented girl that one. She dances, sings, sews and does make-up. I mean that she loves it, and she makes it contagious.
However, at the back of my mind, I can't stop wondering about how things will go if we lose our camp. According to Brown, if we lose, our camp is closed. Meaning that we will never be together. Yes, it is a depressing thought.
I haven't mentioned it to her, because I am scared to ask her to be my girlfriend.
"Hey mate! What are you doing?"
"Aye Uncle Brown. just sitting here, trying to think of stunts to pull."
"Really? then why do I feel like it is more than that? you didn't even notice the owls up in the maple tree. It is not just the competition, right?"
I sighed. Bloody hell! My uncle is a mind reader of some sort. I remember, a few days ago he told Shane that Luke had a thing for Mitchie. And Shane was like, 'yeah, whatever!' you all know Shane. Even then, Dana had told Nate to tell Shane to watch over Mitchie because Luke could get a girl, any girl, in less than ten minutes. Figures how he got Tess.
"Is it a girl problem?"
I sighed. "How do you know all these thngs?"
"Well, because I am older than you, and also because I am your uncle. I know things, ihearthinngs. I am plugged in."
"well, I like Ella, but if we lose, I will never see her again, and I don't know if I should ask her to be my girlfriend?"
"Hmm. So, you need help?"
"Yup, oh wait, there is a swallow!"
What can I say? I love birds? Is that even a question or a statement?
Shane looked a little worried, and that is because he had met Luke Williams, the hottie from Camp Star at the lake when he went out jogging today morning. So, when I came over to their cabin later in the morning, Shane was broody moody, and Nate had tried unsuccessfully to get the contagion to lift, but nope, it wasn't working.
So, I did what I had to do. I am a rockstar, I own like a zillion guitars, and I rock the world everytime I play.
I am gonna rock Shane's world.
"Dude, what are you doing?"
"Rocking your world."
"Stop!"
Or maybe not.
Nate didn't care, he grabbed his guitar too.
"Lets do this, Jay."
I smiled, finally some motivation!
I strummed my guitar. One chord, then the next.
"I went down Sesame Street and met Bi. . . "
"Really Jay? Really?"
"Shane, shut it!" Nate said, stopping the interruption. "Continue Jay."
"As I was saying, I went down Sesame Street and met Big Bird who asked me if I knew my ABCs."
Nate strummed a few chords too, and said, "did you tell him you did?"
I strummed my guitar again, before I replied, "yes, Big Bird, yes Big Bird I do. I can sing my Rockstar AABCs, wanna hear?"
"Sure thing tell us," Nate encouraged, and I saw Shane roll his eyes. Yeah dude, I am gonna rock your world, watch it, because I rocked Ella's.
"Ellla's?" I heard Nate ask, but I ignored him, because I started my song.

After my ABCs are sang.
Nate was laughing like the kid he always was. I smiled at Shane who was also smiling. This was gonna be okay.
"Shane, don't worry, things are gonna be okay. He can't steal Mitchie, because she loves you and says that even though he has awesome teeth, you are way better than him."
"What?!" Nate and Shane exclaimed.
Oh crap, me and my big mouth!
Where is a bird to distract me when I am in trouble? Oh, wait, Shane shut all the windows.
