Chapter 2

No. No this can't be happening. This is a bad dream. I'm going to wake up under my oak tree up on the hill. This. Is. Not. Happening.

I close my eyes, and pinch my wrist as hard as I can, praying that this is a dream, a bad, twisted, messed up dream. But when I open my eyes I'm still in my cabin, and she's still standing there staring at me with those big, brown eyes, damn, I could just melt into those eyes- what am I saying?

"Vega?" I say in disbelief, even though I knew it was her.

"Jade?" she says with a look on her face like a cross between horror and surprise.

"This cannot be happening." I groan leaning back and banging my head against the door repeatedly. These are supposed to be my Vega free weeks! I've had to hang out with her and the gang occasionally this summer and I was so looking forward to not seeing her.

"Good to see you too." she replies sarcastically.

"What the hell are you doing here?" I ask her. Seriously, why does she have to be at my camp? Of all the camps in the world it just had to be mine. Why?

"I saw an add online for it, thought it looked fun." she says shrugging.

"Well who are our other roommates? I ask looking around, there was a clock on the wall, a table against the back wall, and four beds, but the only suitcase I saw was sitting next to Vega.

"No one yet, just me and you." she says turning to her suitcase and going through it. Perfect, just perfect, I'll be sharing a cabin with just Vega for the next two weeks.

"Oh joy." I reply sarcastically.

I look around the cabin once more and see that Vega has chosen the bed on the far left so I immediately walk to the far right and toss my stuff onto the bed.

I look at my watch and see that it's almost eight o clock. I turn and walk towards the door but I can't escape quick enough.

"Where are you going?" Vega asks with a look of confusion. Hmm she looks kinda cute when she's confu- what is wrong with me? God I've only been here a half hour and she's already messing with my head! I don't know if I can take two weeks of this.

I sigh dramatically and roll my eyes turning back towards her.

"I'm going to the campfire. There's one every night at eight." I say.

Her face brightens and she asks "Can I go with you?"

Before I can even stop the words they tumble out of my mouth and I reply "Sure."

She looks surprised for a moment but then beams at me with those perfect teeth and follows me out the door.

When we get to the campfire the majority of the campers are there, gathered around the fire talking, and roasting marshmallows. I go towards the back of the crowd and sit down on the ground. Vega follows my example and sits down next to me.

We just sit there for a while, both of us just staring at the fire. Every so often her knee will brush against mine, sending shocks through my body, which I convince myself are due to my hatred for her.

"So how's Beck?" she asks trying to make conversation.

"He's fine. We broke up." I say in a monotone. It is the truth, we broke up, but we're both fine.

"What? I'm so sorry Jade." she says with a look of sympathy. She probably thinks I'm all choked up about it like last time.

"It's fine, we both decided the spark was gone and it was time to move on. We're still great friends though." I reply, and to my surprise I don't sound ganky right now. Am I seriously having a civil conversation with Vega?

She looks happy at this for some reason, maybe she likes Beck? At this my heart drops, but being an actress, my facial features and body language show nothing.

"Why are you looking so cheery Vega? Got a crush on Beck?" I tease, but inside I'm praying for the answer to be no. Please, please be no.

"No!" she protests. Yes! "I'm just glad you two are friends." she says, but she's not as good an actress as I am, and I can tell that there's something else there too, but for some reason I decide not to dig.

"Hmm so who does little Vega have a crush on then?" I ask in that voice that I mock her with. And I'm curious, I just wanna know who she likes...so I can throw them off a cliff... because I wouldn't want her happy or anything.

"I don't talk like that! And like I would ever tell you, you'd humiliate me." she says. Hmm wise choice, but now I'm just curious.

I'm about to ask again but I am interrupted as calls for everyone's attention.

"Attention Campers! Before we can have some fun, we have to lay down some ground rules." she says. At this some of the older camper groan but I hold my tongue, I know the rules, and as hard as it might be to believe, I follow them...most of the time.

"There will be no girls in the boys cabins, or vice versa. No coming outside past eleven o clock, and if you are under ten years old, then it is nine. No fighting, no disrespecting counselors, and no going off camp grounds." At her last remark she looks at me pointedly and I avert my eyes to the fire.

"Other than that there is only one rule, and it is the most important one, to have as much fun as possible!" she finishes with a smile, and heads towards the main lodge.

"So why was looking straight at you for the grounds thing hmmm?" Tori teases.

"None of your business Vega!" I snap. She instantly recoils looking disappointed and I feel bad for yet again hurting her. Why did I have to be such a gank?

Mr. Swift steps up now and calls our attention.

"This year we are doing things a little differently, you are going to chose a partner from your cabin to do all of your activities and exercises with."

I slowly turn my head towards Vega and she's just looking at the ground. Why? I have to spend the Next two weeks attached to Vega. Well, that's actually not that bad...Gah! Jade! Focus! You. Do. Not. Like. Tori!

"I'm choosing the activities and stuff." I say, trying to look calm and bored but really my heart is racing from the thought of being with Vega for pretty much two weeks straight.

She looks like she's about to protest but she stops and just gives me a defeated sounding "fine".

Chatter fills the air around us, but we sit in silence. I watch the fire dance, shifting from red to orange to yellow, and even the occasional blue. Yeah I'm a bit of a pyro, I've always been fascinated with fire, but who isn't?

Few by few camper retire to their cabins, and soon it's just Vega and me left.

"Jade?"

"Hmmm?" I respond.

"It's practically curfew, we need to go back to the cabin." she says nervously. Typical Vega, afraid to break the rules.

"Oh no! It's practically curfew!" I mock in that voice I do.

She glares at me "I. Don't. Talk. Like. That!" she growls. I just scoff.

She gets up, pulls me to my feet, and starts dragging me towards our cabin.

"Vega! What the hell are you doing?" I ask pretending to be outraged. Her hand actually feels pretty good on mine- Gah I have to stop saying shit like that!

"I'm not gonna have you get in trouble because then I won't have a partner." she says as she continues dragging me. Wow, she's stronger than she looks. Who would have thought she could actually drag someone somewhere that wasn't the janitors closet?

I yank my hand out of her grip, but I immediately miss the contact. We continue walking in silence until we reach the cabin. We both go inside and I walk over to my bag.

I start stripping down, taking off my top, so I can change into pajamas, which for me are short shorts and a tank top.

"W-what are you doing?" she asks, looking even more uncomfortable.

"Changing, duh." I say pulling off my pants. She immediately turns around and just stares at the wall.

"What? We're both girls." I say pulling on my shorts.

"Yeah but..." she trails off.

"Does big bad Jade make wittle Vega uncomfortable?" I tease while pulling on my tank top. I sneak up behind her until I'm right behind her.

"Boo!" I yell.

"Ahhh!" she screams whipping around to face me.

I fall down in one of the beds laughing.

"You're too easy Vega!" I say between laughs, but then I'm whacked in the face with something soft. I look up and see Vega holding a pillow smirking down at me. Oh she wants to play that game?

"Oh you're so on!" I say grabbing a pillow and swinging at her.

The next ten minutes are filled with pillows flying through the air and laughs until I see Vega waving a white pillow from behind her bed saying "I surrender!"

"Very wise." I reply as I turn and climb into bed.

Vega looks uncertainly towards me and then turns towards the wall and starts changing. She pulls off her shirt and the bronze skin of her back is revealed to me. Wow I'm totally perving over this...oh well.

Next go her shorts to reveal blue and white polka dot underwear. I almost laugh but that would give away me watching her and I don't think I would ever live that down.

She quickly pulls on some shorts and a t-shirt and I turn my head so I'm looking at the ceiling. She turns the light off and slips into her bed.

"Goodnight Jade"

"Night Vega" I say

I can't help but think of the events of today. Vega and I had a few civil conversations, and even had a joking pillow fight. I'm having...pleasant thoughts of Vega. I can already feel the pull towards her strengthening.

I can feel myself drifting off to sleep, and the last thing that runs through mu mind is that maybe, just maybe I have a teeny tiny crush on her. Just maybe.

AN:well there ya go! chapter two! and jade has admitted her feelings to herself which is basically the first step to advancing on this story :) hope you liked this chapter, you should review, cuz thats what all the cool kids are doing nowadays :P remember, reviews = love
