Camp Rock
Chapter 5
My own version of Camp Rock told in Shane's point of viewI stepped out of the dance hall, a huge grin spread across my face. I totally just made someone cry! Doesn't that make everyone's day? I strutted down the dirt path of the camp, my head held high. I walked over to my cabin and went inside, only to see a note on my bed. I looked at the piece of paper. "Asshole!" it read. I smirked. I have such great fans. I threw the paper in the trash and went outside to see if my mattress and sheets were dry yet. I took them back inside and place them back on my bed frame.
I looked at my clock and noticed that it was almost time for lunch. I smiled at the thought of food (who doesn't like food?) and I set down the path to the dining hall. I caught a glimpse of my uncle. He looked really mad. I gasped and then ran the other way. I ran as far as I could, not wanting to get scolded by my uncle. But, he saw me anyway and he yelled after me. "Shane, you get back here right now!"
I closed my eyes. "Damn it!" I cursed under my breath and slowly turned around, walking back towards my uncle. He was standing next to Tess. "Yes?" I asked like nothing was wrong.
Tess's eyes were red and puffy, like she had been crying for a long time. Little evil, faking, whore. Gah, people like her make me sick inside.
My uncle crossed his arms. "I think we owe someone an apology,"
I nodded. "Yeah, you do. You need to apologize for making me come to this stupid camp in the first place."
He rolled his eyes. "You need to apologize to Tess, Shane."
I shrugged. "I don't know what you're talking about, Brownie."
Uncle Brown poked my shoulder. "You know damn well what I'm talking about."
I shook my head. "Haven't a clue… honestly,"
Tess started to fake cry again. "Oh, he was so mean to me!"
I rolled my eyes. Dramatic bitch. "You know she's faking, right? She's just mad because I called her a bad dancer,"
"And he assaulted me!" Tess cried out.
I scoffed. "Did not! I pushed you in self-defense! You started it!"
"Self defense, my ass! You were trying to show off to the class. We all know you're not all mighty and powerful like you seem like, Shane. So stop picking on girls and get a life!"
"Me? You're telling me to get a life? Shane Gray needs to get a life? All right then, Miss-I'm-so-perfect-just-because-my-mom-is-a-famous-singer. FYI, most of us had to work our way to the top; we weren't born into royalty like you, Miss Thang Thang!"
Uncle Brown stepped in the middle of our argument. "All right, children. Settle down!"
I pointed to Tess and she pointed to me. "She started it!" "He started it!" we said at the same time.
My uncle sighed. "You two will have to settle this a better way, because obviously screaming at each other isn't working too well."
I nodded. "Yeah. Settle this like a man, Uncle Brownie!"
He made us follow him over to the lake. I gave Tess the evil eye the whole way down to the lake. There was a canoe sitting in the grass, and Uncle Brown pushed it in the water. "Get in," he ordered, handing us life jackets. I put on the lifejacket and got in the canoe.
Tess just stared at it. "There is no way I'm getting this new outfit wet!" she squealed.
I rolled my eyes. "Get in the damn canoe,"
She took the lifejacket from my uncle and stepped in the canoe. "Now what?" she asked.
Uncle Brown went over to the shed and got out two pool noodles. He threw them in the canoe and I grabbed the green one. Tess grabbed the blue one. My uncle gave us some paddles and then pushed us out further to the lake. "Have fun settling this out! Come back before dark!" he yelled after us and sat on the shore, watching us.
I stood up, causing the canoe to rock back and forth. "Get ready to die, Tess!" I yelled and whacked her hard with the noodle.
She screamed. "Don't hit a girl!" She stayed sitting down.
I whacked her again, causing the canoe to rock even more.
"Stop it, Shane! Don't make the canoe tip over!" Tess called out.
I smirked when I suddenly got an idea. I put one foot on each side of the canoe, standing in the middle, and then shifted my weight to each foot, causing the canoe to violently shake. Tess started screaming. "Stop! Stop!"
I shook it even more and then the whole canoe flipped over. I landed in the water with a splash and could faintly hear my uncle laugh. I smirked when I saw Tess screaming, her brand new dress soaked. I grabbed the noodle and whacked her again. She tried to shield herself with her hands.
Tess splashed around in the water, trying to swim her way back to shore, but I grabbed her leg. "Let's settle this, right here, right now!" I yelled at her.
She shook her head. "No! I'm cold and hungry! Let me go back to shore!"
I shook my head. "Not until we settle this properly. Now get your noodle and let's get back in the canoe."
Tess sighed and grabbed the noodle. She helped me tip the canoe back over. It took some effort, but I managed to get it back the right way and I got back in it. I helped Tess up and then I whacked her with the noodle, causing her to fall out. I laughed at her.
She tried to get back on the canoe, but I took the paddle and pushed the canoe back over to shore, laughing at her expense. She groaned and swam after me. "I'm gonna kill you, Shane Gray!"
I made it to the shore way faster than she did, and I pulled the canoe back up in the grass. I zoomed past my uncle. "Gotta go! Angry crack whore is going to kill me!" I called out after him.
"Shane Gray, you get back here right now!" Tess screamed.
