Two. It's a anonymous number.
Two. It's a anonymous number
Julia's room was small but cozy, with a twin sized bed and a small window that looked out onto the forest. There was a small desk in the corner and a small closet by the door. Alice stood by the window, looking outside. "I hope you don't mind sharing a room," she said with a smile. "I promise I'm not a snorer." And julia shrugged. "I don't mind," she said, setting her bags down on the bed. "I don't, hope you don't mind me sleep taking" she joked as Alice laugh "I don't seriously sleep talk just giving warning in future" julia told her "understood, well right know i check on kids before Caleb voice make there ears bleed" alice said causing julia to chuckle as she left but then she got a message from her phone as she picked up and the number was alone
What has a mouth but cannot speak, has a bed but cannot sleep, and has a head but cannot see?
Alice furrowed her brow, trying to figure out the answer. She had never been good at riddles feelings hands on shoulder "you alright there" alice jumped, startled by julia's sudden appearance.* "Oh, hey. Yeah, I'm fine," she said, hastily locking her phone. "Just got a weird text." Julia raised an eyebrow, looking intrigued. "Can I see it?" Alice hesitated for a moment, then handed her phone to her.
As julia read the riddle and thought for a moment before her eyes widened in realization.* "Oh, I know this one! It's a river!"
"but who sent to you"
"I don't know,"
"It was an anonymous number. Probably just a prank or something." Julia handed back her phone, feeling unsettled. The riddle seemed too creepy and specific to be just a random prank. "Yeah maybe a prank" alice mummble "yo alice, new girl can you help me" they both beard Caleb who came to them jogging "her name is julia how many times i told you" alice told Caleb "and did you think i listen" Caleb said keeping hand on hips
"I know you don't because your brain work slowly then window 7 login screen" alice said "hey don't pull my leg in front of our new friend" Caleb said "aww your looks like i hurt your feelings" alice said pulling his leg again
"names Caleb Hawthorne ethan brother and the one who give alice a regular headache" Caleb said showing his hand to julia "nice to meet you too" julia said shaking his hand
Later in kitchen julia was helping the chef making food "oh your the new camp counselor" one old lady said "yeah nice to meet you" julia said in her nervous tone "did not realise Robert hired a new camp counselor for what happen" old lady said "mr Walters?" Julia asked as she took out potatoes "yeah, well sort of had expected as it" old lady said leaving to other side as julia was peeing potatoes
Maya burst into the kitchen, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "Hey julia! Guess what? I just got a call from the camp management. They're planning a fun party for us tonight in the mess hall! There will be music, dancing, and even a special surprise activity!" Maya said happy "I see have any ideas what supirse activity are" julia asked "well it's supirse for a reason hey Ms Chen" maya said mentioning to old lady who Lisa talked to "hey maya hope you don't bring mess to kitchen" she said
Maya pout "well need to make a mess while making food" maya said as she and julia smile "so you are coming okay beside it be like your welcome party" maya said to julia "of course i come it's not that I can leave to go home" julia said to Maya looking at her as maya nod "well some give some stupid reason, just because they want to sleep, play games" maya told as julia was drinking water
"or to have sex" julia almost about to spill water out of her mouth "what?!" Julia said widen eyes "well the one who are 18 above obviously not kids" maya said to her as julia nod as she was peeing potatoes later.
"Alex when will Gwen come back I miss her" a young girl said pulling alex jeans "I don't know ellie, but I think Gwen miss you all to" alex said to her ruffling her hair as one boy name finn came and showed drawing "see alex what I made" he said happy and jumpy as alex looked at it and remembered something about Gwen.
Scene changed to many years back alex in Gwen bed room as Gwen was finding her stuff so both of them can go out "holy shit this drawing is scary as fuck" alex said showing her the sketch she drew "well I saw it on my dream or night mare what ever you call it haunted me to I thought to drew to express my....something" Gwen said as she found her bag "found it" Gwen said "finally yes good job" alex said hi fiving Gwen as she smile "know let's go before Caleb shout" Gwen said "get your as-" before Caleb finsh shouting "shut up we coming" alex said out loud as Gwen smack his arms as both of them got down
As scene changed to now "it's amazing finn" alex said to finn happy later as julia made her way back to room as she was thinking about who sent alice riddle, she tried telling herself that it's a prank, a prank. But this how hor- her thoughts where broken as she was bump into ethan having a sheepish look on his face as he caught her elbow steadying julia
"Oh, sorry julia. I didn't see you there." Ethan explained as his touch had sent a Shiver down her spine and felt her cheeks heat up as she shook her head regaining her composure "No, it's okay. I should have been paying attention." She looked up at Ethan, noticing the way his hair fallen across his forehead. He was so handsome as she snap out of her thoughts after ethan ran a hand through his hair having small grin on his face "Are you excited for the party tonight? It's going to be a blast." Julia managed a small nod, trying to keep her composure. "Yeah, I'm looking forward to it."
Ethan noticed her feelings nervous as his expression soften "Hey, you don't have to be nervous. It's just a party. We're all going to have a good time." He said putting a comforting hand on her shoulder, the gesture making her chest feel inexplicably tight
Julia couldn't quite understand why she was feeling nervous she never reacted the way to someone else she took a deep breathe trying to steady herslef
"I'm not nervous," she said quietly, but even she could hear the tremor in her voice. "I just... I've never been one for parties." Ethan tilted his head to the side, studying her. "Well, maybe this is the perfect opportunity to change that." Causing her to nod "yes" she said
Ethan's eyes met hers and she felt a jolt of electricity run through her. He leaned in closer, his breath warm on her cheek. "You don't have to be nervous... around me," holding her shoulder
She looked at him, her heart pounding in her chest. She wanted to say something witty, or clever, or anything but what came out of her mouth.
"You mean I have to talk to people?" She cringed at the way her voice squeaked on the last word. Ethan chuckled, the sound making her heart skip a beat. "Don't worry, I'll stick with you. I promise you'll have fun. Beside rest of our friends are very friendly even marcus says dirty jokes" ethan said.
As if on cue, Alice came bursting into the room, interrupting the moment. "Hey guys," she said, a sly grin on her face. "What are you two whispering about over here?" Julia felt a rush of relief and annoyance at the same time. She was both grateful for the interruption and irritated that it had come from Alice. Ethan, on the other hand, merely chuckled and shrugged.
"Just talking about the party tonight," he said nonchalantly alice raised an eyebrow, her grin widening "Riiiight," she drawled.
"Well, I hope you two aren't planning on making out or anything." Julia felt her cheeks heat up at the implication, and she quickly turned away, hoping that Ethan hadn't noticed her reaction as he let out a chuckle seemingly unbothered by alice comment
"Nah, I wouldn't dream of it," he said giving julia a soft smile causing her to heart flutter meanwhile Alice rolled her eyes, clearly not buying it.
As Ethan said his farewells and left, julia turned to Alice, a question on the tip of her tongue. But before she could say anything, Alice spoke up with a smirk.
"You know, you and Ethan have a whole lot of chemistry," Alice said, her voice laden with innuendo. Julia scoffed in response to Alice's comment. "What are you talking about? We were just talking about the party."
"Sure," Alice shrugged. "But I saw the way he looked at you and how you blushed when he touched you. There was definitely some chemistry there." Julia shook her head vehemently.
"The only chemistry I know is in books and science"
