Elena pov
The journey was hectic and I could swear everyone like myself was stressed out. I was happy that Mac wasn’t going to be on the same bus as I was, he was the least of the people I wanted to see all through our stay in camp right now.
Stepping down from the school bus, I took in the big forest before us, and I wondered why Principal Alice had decided that this was the particular forest suitable for this trip.
There were gigantic trees around and all I could say was this place could easily get dangerous at night and though I knew they might have searched everywhere before our arrival, I still had my doubts.
Our supervisors decided that we should be paired in groups, and for each group, a group leader was assigned.
Everyone began setting their camp almost immediately. I could feel someone staring at me and when I turned, I caught Mac but his gaze shifted when Tisha came into the picture. I scoffed; wait a minute, I just showed how jealous I was. I need to get him off my mind.
“All group leaders, you are required to work together to gather wood from these bushes for lighting up fires later on” Mr. Richard announced. I groaned in frustration; I hated going to the bushes but I had to else no one in my group was going to have any source of light later on.
While searching for woods, we decided to split up and go separate ways. While I was searching for any piece of wood, I saw Mac and God knows I didn’t intentionally want to bump into him but I did.
He took a few steps back and groaned aloud before looking at me in desperation. His stare made me feel things I didn’t want to feel, I didn’t want to have such intense feelings for my bully. I didn’t even know how we ended up here in this position.
He passed his hands swiftly through his black hair tugging at the ends and sighed in frustration.
” I don’t know what to do Elena, you’re making this hard.” He mumbled resting his body on the tree
My eyebrows raised at his words, and felt angry for him blaming all of this on me.
“What! I’m not the one making things hard around here Mac Lee” I said, folding my arms and looking at him with a scowl on my face.
“Yes you are Elena ” he said again and this time in a more calm voice making me wonder why he became so calm immediately, well I couldn’t care less so I said.
“Mac, we both know you are the one at fault here and I try my best not to make things worse between us but you love playing me dirty”
He was about to retort when others came to meet us. I was thankful for that disturbance, there was no way in hell I wanted to have this conversation in the forest. There were too many prying eyes around here.
He sighed again frustratingly.
“Can we talk later at night?” ” He asked, hopefully widening his eyes. His expression made my heart flutter as he bit his bottom lip waiting for my answer.
“Please?” He asked again as I was taking too long to answer
“Fine,” I mumbled and put a few loose strands of hair behind my ears. His eyes lit up as he smiled at me.
“Umm yeah, I got to go to my camp,” I told him awkwardly. I was content with the woods today.
“Yes sure, so I’ll see you later. He asked hopefully squinting his eyes at me.
“Uh-huh,” I rushed out before leaving him there to head to the camp. When we got there, empty boxes of pizza were on the floor. My group members were absolute hedonists; I mean who finished pizzas for two days!!! Sighing I cleaned it up before going to my camp I reached for my laptop that was at my feet and put it on to watch a movie. This should keep me occupied until I have to head for Mac.
Still watching the movie, someone burst into the camp, causing me to look up and it was none other than Sophia.
“Oh hey there, didn’t see you coming” I commented, going back to continue my movie.
“What are you watching?” She asked, coming to settle down on the bed with me.
How I hate those types of questions while watching movies. I rarely give time to movies but I had to because I was bored today.
“Some movie from K series,” I said in a much lower tone hoping she would get the signal that I didn’t like being disturbed.
“So ummm I don’t know this is random, but what’s going on with Mac and you?” Oh, bless the devil for being such an idiot and sending his agents to make inquiries from me.
“Nothing” I simply stated trying to focus on the movie. After a minute of silence, I think she got the signal that I didn’t like being disturbed, thus she stood up and was about to go.
“Oh uhh… Before I left, Elena” I looked up at her to see what she was about to say.
“If you like Mac, don’t let my sister get in the way of you two, in fact, I kinda like you two together,” She said with a smile and headed out.
What did she mean by that? I asked myself but I couldn’t figure out what she meant by what she just said.
I continued my move and as it got to the interesting parts of the movie I couldn’t help but smile as I kept on watching the movie.
I kept on watching the movie as I took a snack from my bag to hence the video I was getting from the movie.
Trust me you can’t watch any k series and not smile, cry, and blush while watching at least you would be doing one of the three.
Except you are a freak tho, though I kept on watching the movie cause Mac has still not reached out to me so maybe we won’t be meeting again.
Before I knew it I slept off while watching the movie.
