if you're gonna be two-faced at least make one of them pretty__Marilyn Monroe.
i stirred in my sleep, and groaned softly as the sun hit my eyes. slowly opening them they became wide as yesterday's events played in the back of mind. holy shit!
i looked beside me and saw Noah sleeping peacefully, his face resting on his extended arm, the same arm my head is resting on, his other arm was griping my waist tightly to him with our legs tangled together. i felt a small blush creep up on my cheek, as a smile tugged itself on my lips. i slowly took hold of his arm and raised it a bit, so that i can squirm from under it and get up, but suddenly i myself was raised and placed above him. i looked at his half opened eyes in surprise.
''morning, babe.'' he whispered, pulling me close to peck my cheek.
''morning.'' i smiled.
oh my god! it's morning, we have to be back at the camping spot!
i shrieked out of my place, and stood up quickly taking him by surprise.
''calm down, woman.'' he rubbed his eyes, sitting with his legs crossed.
''Noah, we have to get to the spot quickly!'' i shouted at him, ''i will go first, and then you trial after me, alright?''
''why not go together?'' he frowned.
''what if someone saw us?'' he was about to reply, but i started again, ''no Noah, we already talked about this, and i think it would be better if we started moving right now, so quit being a lazy ass.'' i clapped my hand.
''fucking bossy.'' he muttered with a teasing smirk playing on his fine lips. i grinned in response, and turned around to put on my slides. i was about to walk away, when he pulled me to his front, circling his arms around my waist tightly.
''no morning kiss?'' he asked seductively in his husky voice. it was my first time seeing a 'just- now- woke- up- Noah', and in all honesty it was yummy. his hair was messed up, and his cheeks had a hint of red on them. i got closer to him, close enough for him to think i was gonna kiss him, but then i quickly escaped from underneath his arms.
he groaned out loud, as i shot him a sweet 'bye' before making my way out of the trees. i stumbled upon a bunch of rocks, but tried to keep calm, afraid anyone would spot me. finally arriving, the place was scattered from yesterday's bonfire, but thankfully everyone was still in their tents. i tip-toed to my tent, and slowly zipped it open getting in. Abby was sleeping, taking the whole place by herself, before she stirred and her eyes opened wide as she saw me.
''you just came now?'' she asked in disbelief, sitting up rubbing her eyes and adjusting them to the light that penetrated through the tent's material.
''yeah, we slept accidentally.'' i muttered while taking off my slides, and stretching my legs.
''slept? where were you exactly?'' she frowned.
''oh yeah. he made this cute little place by the trees. it was so cozy, so we slept.'' i smiled at the memory.
''oh my, isn't he a little romantic pie.'' she hit my shoulder playfully.
we talked some more, before we heard the melodious sound of our English teacher screaming for us to wake up. ''get up students!''
a moment after, the tents' zips sound was all we heard, as everyone woke up, including ourselves. we slowly got ourselves out, and most of us was standing outside by now.

''why did you take a lot of time?'' the teacher scolded, pointing at me. i looked at him with wide eyes, and started counting the zipped up tents. they were 5! freaking 5!
''there are 5 more tents that are still zipped up.'' i answered through gritted teeth.
''don't argue, and apologize politely!'' he shouted again, causing everyone's attention to shift to us.
''why would i apologize when i did nothing wrong?!'' i asked, frustration creeping up on me. i spotted Logan laughing silently next to him a frowning Lucas.
''yes. may i ask why would she apologize please?'' Lucas asked, folding his arms over each other in annoyance as he looked at the fat ass teacher with hooded eyes.
''she disrespected me, kid.'' he gritted out, now shifting his attention to Lucas.
''i did nothing wrong, all i said was that there are still people sleeping.'' i shrugged, my eyes coming across an amused Noah. he shot me a wink, to which i glared at him with blushing cheeks and looked back at Lucas.
''what's going on here?'' the blonde teacher got out of her tent, probably from the noise we were creating.
''i think the teacher here is having a little bit of difficulty understanding that Emma was not disrespecting him.'' Lucas shrugged his shoulders innocently, as if he was stating the obvious. little laughs were heard from the students making the fat ass teacher blush in embarrassment.
''whatever! you have to get ready for the day AND the bathrooms are closed, so suit yourself.'' he grinned at the end, his eyes shining in pure evil.
''what do you mean the bathrooms are closed.'' Carter asked finally seeming to wake up. my eyes have been on him since i got out, and he was basically sleeping while standing, and don't get me started on Iron Man's t-shirt that he was wearing with no care in the world.
''i dunno, kid. i checked on it when i woke up, and the bathrooms seemed to be closed.'' the teacher shrugged, but i could see behind his lie. there was something fishy going on, but i don't know what to think.
''okay! no need to panic, you go guys freshen up by the lake, and i will check the issue with Mr. Reid right now.'' the blonde teacher calmed us, as groans were heard everywhere. everyone started walking to the lake to wash their faces, and lucky for us the lake was actually clean.
''why the fuck would that happen?'' Abby cursed from next to me as we walked to the lake together. Della came later on and we chatted a bit before going into our tents to change our clothes.
we got in quickly as we were given only 15 minutes to change. Abby brought a white cropped top and black denim shorts to match out of her bag, and i brought out some black leggings and white Nike t-shirt. we got dressed quickly and did nothing to our hair, just smoothed it out, nothing special.
''hey bro.'' i kissed Lucas first thing as i got out of the tent, and he kissed me back adorably. Logan poked his tongue out at me making me roll my eyes at his childish behaviour. we were all standing waiting for the teachers to make an appearance. the boys were consumed in their conversation, while Abby, Della and i were talking about random stuff.
spotting Levi, i quickly motioned for him to wait for me. he gave me a questioning look, but nodded non-the less. i made up an excuse and made my way to Levi away from the girls and my brothers.

''hey is something wrong?'' Levi asked concern showing in his voice.
''actually there is Levi. let me ask you one question.'' he nodded with hooded eyes, ''do you like Abby or nah?''
apparently my question took him by surprise as he scratched his neck nervously. i placed both hands on my hips and stared at him confused by his actions.
''i do...a lot actually.'' i smiled, relief washing over me. i don't know what i would have done if he didn't like her.
''then why are you always so nervous around her? you were acting okay a few weeks ago.'' i whispered softly. he looked at the ground thinking before he looked up meeting my eyes again.
''okay, look you might not understand, but a few weeks ago i liked Abby, but now it seems that my feelings have gotten stronger for her, and i am scaring myself off.'' he said all at once, and my eyes softened instantly.
''okay no rush! take your time, think it through and settle down with your feelings lev, but be aware that your girl is hot, and she can be stole quickly.'' i warned him playfully, but it seemed like he kinda panicked. ''chill, i am joking.'' i laughed my ass off.
''so fucking funnt, Emms.'' he smacked my shoulder, and together we went back to where we were standing. the teachers were already there, but thank the heavens they didn't notice us.
''so i see you all are dressed now.'' the blonde teacher smiled at us, ''so for today we are going to have breakfast first, then some mind games that are gonna be so fun. by mid-day there is going to be the main game, and onward we are gonna chill till the bonfire starts.'' we all cheered, and did those stupid stuff, but our happiness was long gone when Mr. Reid started talking.
''but before breakfast, you are all gonna have to clean up this mess.'' he smiled at our grumpy faces before he took his seat and started drinking his coffee.
''i swear he has a personality disorder.'' Logan muttered angrily, and as response Carter smacked his ass. they started fighting and smacking each other's asses, so i took my cue to leave.
we all started picking up the trash from the ground to clean up the space. i bent down to get an empty bag of Doritos when i felt someone's lips on my cheek stealing a quick kiss. i looked beside me in horror only to be faced with a smirking Noah by my side. i glared at him making him pout playfully.
''hello there,'' Abby appeared out of no-where, ''so he is a playful lover, huh?'' she smirked at me.
''shut up, and go see your own lover boy first.'' i turned the table.
''my lover boy is having second thoughts about me, i guess.'' little do you know, Abbs. little do you know...
''hey! let's go see Lucas's phone!'' i whispered at her enthusiastically. her eyes widened at the idea, and she nodded eagerly.
''where is his phone?'' she asked patting her shorts to dust off the dirt on her hands.
''it's in the tent. he left it there.'' we slowly made our way to the tent, acting as if we are cleaning up.
''alright, you go inside and i will cover for you.'' she informed me as she opened the tent slowly looking at her surroundings. i slid inside, and thank God it was on the sleeping bag. quickly grabbing it, i wrote down his pin, it's my birthday date. getting into the contacts, everything was normal, so i went into whats app instead and found 'babe' was the last chat. my eyes widened at the name, so i quickly clicked on the chat trying to find the name.
'morning, beb.' it was a message from her.
'morning, Dells.' no, no, no, it can't be.
'do you have a moment at lunch break today?' it was him.
'i have practice, and i am gonna be with Emms and Abbs, any ways. is there something important?' fuck...
'no just wanted to taste those li--' AHHHHH! my virgin eyes!
i quickly threw the phone back in its place, and got out of the tent with a flustered face. i didn't see this one coming, man.
''who is it?!'' Abby asked as soon as i faced her. i held her hands and closed my eyes slightly trying to process what i just knew. she looked at me questionably.
''its Della.'' i whispered, smiling. to be honest, i feel a little bit relieved that she is Della. the girl is perfect for him, but i was just taken by surprise, and what i couldn't understand was why are they keeping it a secret?
''DELLA?!'' she screamed. literally screamed.
''yes?'' Della answered making her way to us. ''you screamed my name, Abbs.'' she laughed, and i laughed nervously with her, all the while sending warning glares to Abby, who seemed to be still struck.
''uhm. i-i...i need air.'' she fanned herself using her hand. Della looked at me questionably, and in answer i shrugged my shoulders acting dumb.
soon after, it was breakfast time. they served us grilled cheese sandwiches, and wild berries, which was just fine. they started giving us some cards to answer and this was their 'fun game'!
i don't know what to do with these old people...
i was actually still trying to make the new info sink in, and that's Lucas and Della are together. now that i knew it all started to make sense how they used to hide their phones and act all weird. but my one and only question is why would they do that? it's not like we were going to tell them no. they fit perfectly together.
i started to walk to Carter, as he motioned for me to come. he was standing with a brunette, who seemed to be blabbering on something he wasn't interested in.
''you wanted me boo?'' i asked standing a foot away from him.
suddenly and without a warning, he pulled me into his embrace and hugged me tight making my eyes go wide as the sun. he turned us around as if we were kissing, and all i wanted to do at that moment was to bite his shoulder, which i actually did. he screamed lightly into my neck, but was still persistent onto hugging me.
''fuck you!'' the girl cursed Carter and in return he started laughing silently in my embrace. waiting for a moment and making sure that she actually left, we broke the hug apart.
''and this is one of the privileges of having you.'' he smiled poking my nose.
''warn me the next time, or i will embarrass you.'' i glared at him.
''what's going on here if i may ask?'' a voice said from behind me, and it didn't take a genius to know that it was Noah.
''hey man, nothing, i guess?'' Carter answered confused by Noah's actions. i turned around glaring at Noah, and motioning for him to go away.
''you were--'' i quickly cut Noah off, afraid of whatever he was about to say.
''no Noah, sorry i tried to find your charger but it's not there.'' i rambled on, and now his glare was directed to me.
''uhm, i think i will go?'' Carter smirked, making his way to the boys.
''behind the tree. now!'' Noah demanded leaving no space for negotiating the matter, as he already started moving to the place we slept at. sighing a big time i walked there only to be yanked into a strong chest.
''should i punish you now?'' Noah whispered huskily in my ear, my eyed automatically shut at the shivers that ran down my spine. his hot breath was fanning my cheeks, as his arms were circled around my waist in a possessive manner.
''and why is that?'' i whispered back after finally opening my eyes.
''he was hugging you.'' he growled with clenched teeth.
''he is Carter.'' i explained in a 'duh' tone, but it seemed like it didn't satisfy him.
''he is a male for me, and i am the only male who can touch you, Emma.'' he growled out, his grip on my waist tightening but not painfully.
''alright tiger, but he only hugged me, big deal!'' i threw my arms in the air proving my point.
''i don't like it.'' his eyes became hooded, ''just don't let them hug you, and then it's alright!'' he stroked his nose on mine in a playful manner, still holding me close to his chest. i smiled at his silliness, and got closer to him to kiss his cheek, but quickly he turned his head and the kiss landed on his lips.
''hey!'' i argued, hitting his shoulder a little.
''kinky.'' he teased, pecking my lips. i rolled my eyes with a smile on my face, and like that we went to the group again separately.
''i have an announcement!'' the blonde teacher shouted to gain our attention, as the music stopped. we were currently chilling around the bonfire, music blasting, dancing, chatting, and having fun. today was unnoticed and light with not much events.
''i just got a call from the principle telling me that there are two exchange students coming this week to the school, and speaking for all the teachers, we would like it if you are being nice to them. thank you!'' she finished off, and the music started again.
''i hope they are two hot girls.'' Logan said, placing his phone in his pocket.
''stop being a man-whore!'' i hit his head in annoyance. typical Logan. no way he can leave a girl alone.
''i am not being a man-whore, i am just trying to find my other half.'' he shrugged carelessly. oh really?
''by getting into their pants?'' Abby rolled her eyes.
''maybe you should stop doing that, and really get to know a girl, you know?'' Della suggested, and already knowing my brother, he can't do whatever she is suggesting right now.
''ah please!'' Carter laughed, shaking his head in disbelief.
''no no, seriously. try doing that, Logan.'' Lucas talked in a serious tone.
''hey Chloe, I'm coming baby.'' Logan winked at the girl with dirty blonde hair, who has been standing there eye-raping him. i shuddered in disgust, as he took his leave and went to her not wasting a second.
''disgusting.'' i remarked to which everyone agreed with on it.
