Chapter Two- Dear Nelly!
Vlad kept his head slightly towards the ground, as he walked beside Ashlee.
Over to the side Henry was talking to a short blonde girl.
Of course, Vlad thought, Never far away from the girls…
The meeting house quickly filled with people from everywhere. But still, Vlad and Ashlee stuck out from the crowd.
Henry caught up with the two quickly, a huge grin across his lips.
" What are you smirking at?" Vlad muttered to him.
" You got yourself a girl, mate." Henry whispered back.
Vlad glared at him with narrowed eyes. " Shut up. I'm only helping her."
" Helping, crushing, what's the difference?" Henry shrugged.
" Seriously, shut up, dude."
Henry sighed. " Fine. If I must. But, just don't kill her."
Vlad rolled his eyes. " I'm not a monster."
Ashlee pretended not to be listening, but it was difficult not to.
The three sat down at one of the round wooden tables, dropping the suitcases on the ground.
" Thanks, Vlad. I really appreciate it." Ashlee smiled, sitting in one of the chairs.
Vlad sat next to her, and Henry next to Vlad.
Many glares and snickers came from the other campers. Mostly about Henry and Ashlee.
" What a cute couple they'd make…" one muttered to another.
" What about that Goth kid, he looks more like her style." another one whispers back.
The three looked at each other quietly. Nothing at the moment could be said.
A person walked over to their table and placed their hands on Vlad shoulders.
By the tenderness of the grasp it almost…seemed…like…
" Nelly?" Vlad muttered.
" Hi, Vlad!" Nelly smiled cheerfully.
Vlad turned to her, put his arm on the back rest. " No offense, but why are you here?"
" I'm the nurse in the infirmary, got here an hour before you." Nelly answered.
" Great." Vlad muttered.
Nelly turned to Henry. " Hi Henry." she smiled again.
Henry waved.
Nelly then turned to Ashlee. " And you are, my dear?"
" Oh! I'm Ashlee McLane. And you are?" Ashlee stood up, and shook Nelly's hand.
" I'm Nelly, Vlad's aunt."
" Pleasure to meet you." Ashlee smiled, sitting back down on her chair.
" My, what manners you have." Nelly bent over to whisper in Vlad's ear. " She's cute, too."
" Would you two stop saying that!" Vlad glared at both Nelly and Henry.
Somebody walked on to the stage in the front of the meeting room with a clipboard in hand.
" Oops! Gotta go! Bye guys!" Nelly exclaimed, running off.
The person on the stage started talking, and soon the three were going to fall asleep.
Three hour long speeches normally make you want to sleep.
