One Summer

THREE

And when you go away
I still see you
The sunlight on your face in my rearview
When you go away
I still see you
The sunlight on your face in my rearview

NORA

My bags are packed and I am honestly ready to leave this hellhole

Today is the day I leave for the summer camp I've never been so I am a little nervous but I get to be away from Ritchie and meeting new people doesn't seem that bad

Norman the butler knocks on my door lightly before I let him in he's a tall bald black man his complexion a little darker than me

He's actually really sweet he's one of my favorite people well he and Mary are the only two people I like in this house

Norman grabs my bag and brings it into the car once I am done I say my goodbyes to Mary and Norman then get inside the car

The driver drives out of the driveway and takes me to wherever this camp is I hope I make new friends and if I don't oh well I do great alone anyway

After two hours and thirty minutes we arrive at the camping site I take a minute to look at my surroundings

There are other kids arriving with their parents and on buses, I take a deep breath before grabbing my bag

Everyone has their luggage waiting for instructions on what to do before hearing on big speakers "Hello Ladies and Gents welcome to Palm Creek yeah the names are a little weird but no one cares" the lady says and you can hear chuckles from the other teens here

"You all will be assigned in a group of three and who you are grouped with will be your roommate now head down to the cafeteria area it's straight ahead on the left side with a big sign that says food There will be a man in white and he will give you a small key that's all Welcome to Palm Creek campers" I take my luggage and walk to the Food room where we eat our breakfast Lunch and dinner

I bumped into a wall or at least I thought so "Watch where you're going" An angry man let out he was way taller than my 5'4 self he was at least a foot taller than me maybe taller

He has dark black hair and brown eyes that stare into my soul and a jawline so sharp you can cut through paper with it he takes his hand that I didn't realize was on my waist til he took it off

"You bumped into me last time I checked" I snarled under my breath he stared at me for a second before walking away "How rude" I let out

Then a boy a little taller than him walks up to me they look alike they must be twins "I am sorry about my brother" his voice softer than his brother "It's alright" Wow this man is beautiful

He seems to have Heterochromia one of his eyes is light blue and the other a dark brown like his brother "Is this your first time here I've never seen you here before" I zone out on his face he's beautiful

He clears his throat and I get out of my head "Yeah I am new here" I clear my throat then smile

His hair was a grayish blonde but it was darker at the roots "Well Hello I am Iven Florence and I would like to be friends" He pulls his hand from his pocket which was now in front of me hinting that he wants a handshake

I take his hand into mine he squeezes it lightly "and you are..." We pull away "Nora, I am Nora Mane" He smiles at me before we hear his brother yelling for him

"Well that's my cue see you around beautiful" He lets out a small chuckle and smiles then walk away

Beautiful. He just called me beautiful and I can't help but smile I never really got any compliments from any one beside my mother and yes I know I am beautiful but it does feel good when it comes from other people lips especially when they look like him

I walk into the Food room and there are a lot of people in there which makes me a little anxious but I push it back

A dude in a white shirt hands me my key that has my room number on it "The girl cabin are on the right side and you aren't allowed to be in the left cabins past 10 pm no fishy business happening" he repeats it loud enough so everyone can hear I nod my head then walk away to my cabin

I look down at my key I am cabin number thirteen I can't help but wonder who my roommates are since the girl and guys are separated that means my roommates are girls

I can make friends I mean I've already made one well kind of. Iven seems nice and all but I am not that naive he maybe just want to get into my pants and that won't be happening there is no way I will be losing my virginity in a summer camp in a cabin

I unlocked the door of my cabin and walk in then I had a little tour as soon as I walked in there is the living room area and on its left side there is a bathroom and on the opposite side of it there are three doors each a separate bedroom

I'm in the living room there is only a shelf and couch electronics weren't allowed on this camp no phones new televisions nothing to watch or to contact anyone but one of those old cable phones attached to the wall and old TVs that barely works

Even though telephones weren't allowed we will know no one really followed the rule

I am the first one here so I pick the bedroom closer to the bathroom cause I drink so much water I know my bladder is tired of it

I hear the door unlock and someone walks in "Is anyone here" a soft voice speaks out instead of answering I walk out "Hi" I smile at the redhead who's around the same height as me she's black like me but her skin complexion a little lighter her eyes a light brown like mine

Then a third girl walks in "Hello" her voice has a rasp sense to it her hair is jet black with a small strand in the front of her hair white it's cute honestly

It seems to be Poliosis where one strand of your hair is white and a different color from the rest of your hair

"Okay let's introduce ourselves" the redhead calls out she seems excited and cheery "I am Clair Nelson and I am 17 years old" a smile plastered on her face

"I am Nora Mane 17 as well" We then turn to the last girl who clears her throat before answering "I am Nina Cline 18 years old" her voice quiet and raspy

Nina has a dark aura around her she's absolutely beautiful if I liked girls she would definitely be my type

Nina has grey eyes so light they look blue but if you look close enough they are just a light grey she smiles at me once she realizes that I have been staring

Clair has dark brown eyes and her skin a light brown she's stunning and has a very colorful aura around her that makes people feel comfortable when around her

We all settle into our separate rooms in the cabin since it's the first day they let us get it off to unpack and get used to the area
