I was sitting by the campfire warming my hands when a spark flew right near me.

"Ack!" I yelped.

"What's wrong Vanessa?" Alex asked.

"N-nothing." I stammered.

I put my hands near the fire again. My friends were toasting marshmallows and talking around the campfire. It was fall.

" Zack, come here." I said, waving a hand.

Zack leaned in.

"Don't you think Hannah likes you?" I whispered into Zack's ear.

"I don't know." Zack exclaimed.

"Okay. Just wondering." I said.

I stood up and sat next to my best friend Miranda.

"Hey Miranda." I exclaimed. 

"Hey Vanessa," Miranda muttered without looking up from her phone.

"Miranda!"I whisper-shouted while snatching her phone.

"Hey! Give it back!" Miranda retorted.

"Not unless you tell me who're you're texting." I said.

"Fine. It's Andrew. We don't talk much though. Not that I like him or anything." Miranda grumbled.

"Isn't he in your Literature class?"I asked.

"Yeah." Miranda answered.

"You should be enjoying the outdoors, not texting on your phone." I told Miranda.
