Camping Trip

*Brianna's Point of view*

Last night I couldn't sleep much. I felt out of place, I knew the guys well and had hung out with Sasha and Gabby before but they were all Rachel's friends. I had never minded hanging out with them, in fact it made me happy since I didn't talk to many people.Yesterday, I had talked to Michael a bit, he was very laid-back, something I liked about him. He was calm but funny at the same time. I didn't feel the need to be spontaneous or a character around him, I could be simply me.

I got up slightly later than everyone else because of my lack of sleep. Rachel wasn't in the tent when I woke up. I made sure my hair didn't look like a rat's nest before I walked out of the tent. I walked out and saw Sasha talking to Gabby. Rachel was sat by Ashton and Calum. Luke was eating and Michael wasn't in sight. I shuffled over to Rachel and she looked up at me with a grin on her face.

"Sleeping beauty finally wakes!" she said in a goofy tone. I shrugged and smiled,

"You try sleeping when someone talks about bears before you sleep." I said, looking pointedly at Calum. He laughed and shrugged.

I talked with them for a little while longer before walking away, going back to stare at the lake. The lake was beautiful, nothing like anything we had back home. The freshwater lake had beautiful clear blue water, one of the few unpolluted parts of nature. It reflected the clouds and some of the tall trees on it's surface, making the water appear darker than it actually was. I smiled and turned to walk away, bumping right into Michael. I took a step back, not realizing how close I was to the lake and almost slipped in when Michael caught my upper arm and pulled me back. He laughed and said,
"You okay, clumsy?" I pretended to glare.

"Yes I am..dopey." I muttered. He laughed, having caught what I said.

"Dopey?" He asked, chuckling. I nodded, only slightly laughing.

"Yeah..clumsy sounded like a name for one of the seven dwarves so I called you dopey, because you're kind of a dope." I said. Michael shook his head, still laughing.

"You're weird." He stated jokingly. I rolled my eyes and snapped back,

"Says the boy who once died his hair pink!" Michael laughed and looked like he wanted to say something but Rachel walked over and said with a giggle,
"Aww, is my little sister finally warming up?" I laughed and nodded, finally feeling relaxed.
