~Ian~
I woke up with a stiff back in the woods. "Wha...?" I muttered confused. This is when I remembered that I had gone camping with Alyssa and her friends from the Valley.
I propped myself up on my elbows and lifted my torso up to see Alyssa sitting on the ground with a mug of something.
"Good morning Sunshine," she giggled, smiling.
"Morning," I responded. "What's that?"
"Hot chocolate," she replied. "Want some?"
"Yes please," I said eagerly, sitting up straight like a normal human being. (Which, by the way, I am not.)
She laughed and came over by me, handing me the mug. I took a sip and made a face.
"Is it hot?" she asked.
"Very," i said, laughing, handing it back to her.
"I want a picture of us," Alyssa said pulling out the camera shed brought. "So everyone can know how great a couple we are!"
She aimed it at us and we both smiled. We took a few pictures, funny face, serious shiz face, and just plain creepy face.
I narrowed my eyes while looking at the pictures. Was that a person I saw in the background. I looked behind us, nothing.
"Awwe, something wrong baby?" she asked, rubbing my arm.
I blushed. "Nah, im good," I replied, blushing.
"Oh just kiss already!" a few voices said behind us. I think Alyssa said their names were Frankie and Catherine.
Catherine laughed. "Ian, no need for the bird.."
"You need to shave," Frankie critized.
I rubbed my chin. "Maybe I like having facial hair!"
"And maybe I like his facial hair," Alyssa supported me,giggling softly.
"Creepyy," Catherine said, full out laughing.
"Derek and I are going on a walk," Frankie said, holding hands with who I presumed was Derek.
"Later," Derek grumbled.
"Oooh," Catherine said excitedly. "Matt, wanna go?"
He looked annoyed. "Uh, yeah, sure... honey!" And with that Catherine dragged him off.
"Weve got the place to ourselves," Alyssa smiled playfully.
I grinned, pulling her close. "You thinking what Im thinkin'?"
