Women. They can never make anything simple, can they? I couldn't understand why she couldn't just say, "Connor," or "Travis," simple enouh, right?
I kicked sand in the volleyball court, fuming. " Gaaah!" I shoveled the sand up with my foot, flinging it into the air, when Leo showed up behind me, nose in flames. He beat the fire out with his hands and walled next to me.
Leo and Travis and I had done enough pranks together, that Leo trusted me enough not to keep his hand on his wallet the whole time I was around... only when his back was turned.
It was a mutual trust, and I figured that I could talk to him.
"Say, Leo, you've never had... girl problems have you?"
He busted up laughing. "Oh, pal," he said, "you don't know the half of it." He gave me a sly look. " Are you having girl problems?"
I sighed. "Yeah. I just can't figure her out," But then I thought for a second. Why was I mad at her? I drew a heart in the sand with a little zig-zag line going down the middle.
"Leo, uh, I gotta go," and I ran off to the woods.
when I got there, I slowed down, hardly even breaking a sweat. I kicked a rock all the way down to the stream, thinking. After I cooled down, I realized that she wasn't to blame. Honestly, sometimes even I thought I was Travis. I was almost exactly like him, and him like me. One time, I almost called him Connor.
And, it was stupid, but I was so angry at myself for... I don't know.
Getting angry with Rachel...
Allowing myself to be a clone of my brother...
Whatever the reason, I wanted to punish my self, so I took off my shirt and jeans (leaving my boxers on) and sat down in the freezing cold stream.
It was so cold, that it stung. It bit at my toes, making them curl. It licked at my spine, making me shiver. It seeped through my legs and chilled my blood. It wrapped itself around my chest, laboring my breath.
I sat for so long, wallowing in my anger at myself, that the sun started to reintroduce itself to the horizon.
I stood up, and in my underwear, wet and shaking with cold, I started walking back to my cabin even though I didn't feel that I was sufficiently punished.
Of course, I was about as unlucky as it got.
As I was trecking my way through the woods, I ran into Rachel... literally.
She seemed to have come out of nowhere, and In my sexy hot pink and flower print boxers, I nocked her down.
At first, she looked like she was going to Nock my head off, then she noticed that I was a human popsicle and hurried me back to her place.
