CHAPTER 2

Now that I’ve told you my past let me tell you the present. 3 years has past since the death of Jessie. I just Graduated from the 8th grade and now going to the 9th grade at my new high school. I made friends with a video game wiz kid name Tony. He’s a spaz like me and well, I’m proud of being a spaz. Even though me and Tony are both nerds, Tony sure gets more girlfriends than I do. It could be those rock star facial features he always had. He did once tell me that he had plastic surgery a year ago. I never did believe him. I’m having my summer vacation and I feared that high school would be different from my old middle school. The guys get girlfriends, and the girls get boyfriends except me I feel like a total outcast. If Jessie hadn’t died I would be popular. And the worst thing is that I’m (Oh, god I can’t believe I’m saying this) a virgin. Yes, there I said it. I’m currently a virgin. I never once had pleasure with a woman. I feel so gay. Ok, enough talking about myself let’s start the story. It took place during my summer vacation last year. I was going to the 9th grade at my new high school. I really want to lie down and think about Jessie through the whole summer but never get the chance when my father said let’s go on a vacation. I already knew why dad suggested the idea. My mom must’ve plan a way to cheer me up. I wanted to say no but I don’t want to let the old man down. So I said yes since I’m such a nice guy. Me, dad and mom packed up our things, call a few of my friends and rent a van large enough to fit all of us and we were on our way. I got curious and asked my dad where we going. “To the powell spa resort,” said my dad. “I heard they reopen ever since Jessie di-- I mean ever since the incident.” I began to feel a lot worse than before. I never felt this bad since Jessie actually did die. I wished my dad never mention it to me. Now I really don’t want to go. Seeing the spa again and remember Jessie will overwhelm me. I’m just an emotional wreck but I still kept my cool. . “Hey Tim,” said Tony. “Take my girls; I think they’ll give you a good time.” “NO!” I snapped at Tony who jumped back so did the girls and my parents. “Jessie is my only girl and no other girl will replace what I’ve lost,” a tear shed in my eye. “So you better just forget it Tony, Just forget it ok?” Tony went quiet so did everyone else. I miss Jessie and I loved her, I really do. As we kept on driving the light dirt road we came upon 2 hitchhikers: a man in a lumberjack sweater with a black bag full of camping tools, and a girl with long blonde hair and black and white checkered jacket and hat. They appear to be nice folks so I told my dad to pick them up since there’s more room in the van and I just wanted to be a gentleman. My dad stopped the van and the two hitchhikers entered in. the hitchhiker had a husky voice and was pretty tall. “Hi, the name’s Ted.” he said. The girl hitchhiker appeared to be about 6 foot and she was bigger than the other girls. She look around for a seat and when she saw me she smiled. I looked at her and was wondering why she’s smiling at me. She politely asks Tony can she sit near me. I told Tony no cause I don’t know this strange girl. But Tony let her sit next to me anyways. She sat next to me and looked at me in the eyes. “The name’s Jay,” she answered. “What’s yours?” “Timothy.” I quickly answered back blushing bright red. But why am I blushing? Tony’s girlfriends sweet talk me before and I never did blush at them only this blonde hitchhiker girl. I looked away at the window thinking nothing more about it. During the trip she kept trying to make a conversation to me but I steadily ignored her. She was really stubborn. I briefly looked at her face looking frustrated and upset because I couldn’t answer her. After a long hour drive we finally made it. It seems that the only cars in this place are my family’s rented van, a field trip bus, and Jessie’s dad’s old car. We got out of the van and I was amazed how everything has changed. Last year this place was only 3 stories tall now it constructed to be 12 stories tall! Mr. Powell came to me, my family and friends. Jay the hitchhiker girl disappeared behind my van. “Would you be paying cash or credit?” Mr. Powell answered in a slight British accent. I remembered that Jessie’s family is part British. “Cash will do fine sir.” my dad answered back to Mr. Powell. “Well alright then shall we step inside if you please?” Then Mr. Powell notice Ted is about to enter the woods. “Excuse me sir,” Mr. Powell called to Ted. “But what in the world are you doing?” Ted turns around and answered, “Well I’m going camping, got a problem with that manager?” Mr. Powell looked upset about Ted leaving the spa to camp out into wilderness. because you see, the spa is out in a forest area. “No sir, not all.” said Mr. Powell to Ted in a dry tone. Inside, my dad suggests he’ll pick who’ll stay in one of the hotel rooms with a roommate. Tony is roommate with Britney, one of his girlfriends. Angelica and Michelle, Tony’s other two girlfriends are roommates with each other. Tony got a naughty thought, I could see it on his face he was wondering what if the girls would do in a room together. Mom and Dad are roommates (I’m not surprised). And I was roommates with the hitchhiker girl, Jay. My god! NO! NO! Why am I the only one in this whole trip got to sleep with this strange girl?! She appears to act like a stalker. She looks at me in a creepily happy look on her face. We made it to our rooms; I packed my things in the dresser drawer. Jay, she just dropped her things on the floor with a loud thump. Our beds are next to each other. Our room number is number 225. Jay jumped on her bed rolling, hugging her pillows, and hopped like she was just a little child. I wish she could stop that, it kind of creeps me out. Other guys might think that’s hot but me I’m just not like the other guys. She lay on the bed on her belly and look at me sitting on my bed. I pretty much didn’t do anything. I’m here at the spa, everyone in their rooms is having fun, and I have nothing to think what to do. Jay could tell I was bored. She smiled at my boredom and that embarrassed me. I really want to think of something, the gym, the arcade, the hot springs I don’t know what to think at all what so ever. “I know what to do Timmy.” Jay finally answered. I was stunned; it was as if she read my mind. “Let’s play I spy.” said Jay. “Ok, I think I’ll play this silly children’s game.” I confidently answered, “What if I win?” “Well,” said Jay. “If you win, I’ll take my top off.” Then I just froze. I literally froze. Then I was all like, Whoa what was that? Did she say she’ll take her top off if I win? Man, I was like this close to get to see a girl actually naked in front of me and I could’ve enjoyed it if I hadn’t freaked out. But I can’t really tell if she just screwing around with me or something, I am an unattractive nerd you know and I’m not stupid too. I better not take any chances. “I’m going to bed.” I said, and pull the covers over my body and pretend to go asleep. As I was “Sleeping” Jay was getting upset. “Aw, why can’t you play with me Timmy?” she said crying (faking it no doubt). I began to feel so sorry for this pathetic soul. I want to cheer her up and maybe see her pull her top off (Heh, Heh) but I’m in love with Jessie and that’s that. Man, I’m such a nerd with a one track mind.

Night. 10:49 pm.

As I Was Asleep I Looked up and seen Jay Washing her hair in the bathroom in front of me. She was humming a sweet song that I used to remember as a little boy. I love the way she played her song. But why don’t I ever like this girl? Is it the haunting memory of Jessie made me like this? Maybe it’s her tomboyish personality and that’s how we seem to click. But this girl Jay, she’s too girly-girl and I bet she’s a dumb blonde. But Hey, I could be wrong, not all blondes are dumb. Kind of stereotypical wouldn’t you think? At the Hot Springs, Tony and Michelle were really hitting it off there and I mean REALLY hitting it off there. I mean they were naked and holding and kissing. My mother never wouldn’t let me see this. She usually makes a cheap excuse not to let me see this. Like what’ll happen? I’ll end up like Ron Jeremy?
Heh, I made a funny.
Tony: Hey Michelle?
Michelle: Yeah?
Tony: How you like having sex at the springs?
Michelle: It’s kinda new but, I’ve pretty much done it before.
Tony: You’ve done almost everything Michelle, can anything surprise you?
Michelle: well let’s find out.
In my room I lay down to sleep, as I rest, thunder came a booming. The rain drops went pit-patting on the window in me and jay’s room. I can still feel the touch from Jessie when she hold me tight on late nights such as this. the smell of her perfume always let me know that she loves me and that she’ll always be the only one I loved, and everything will be alright.
ZZZZ….
Tony and Michelle were done making love in the hot springs, Tony said that he’ll be back to get a towel for her to dry. Michelle waits. Tony went into the towel rack and found a pink towel with glitters on it that clearly said, “Kawasaki” Tony wonders who towel it was but he doesn’t care. He put the towel up and pick out the pink towel and a blue one for himself. “I guess this’ll do.” Tony said with satisfaction as he steps out the towel rack. “Hey Michelle!” called Tony as he sees her laying up against a boulder. Michelle didn’t answer. Tony thinking she’s just asleep after their little fun, he swim towards her and tapped her shoulder, then he screamed. Laying on the water is Michelle, she’s asleep alright but will never wake up because her throat was slit. Tony swim for his life but then a hand wielding a sharp harpoon stabs Tony on the pelvis. Tony can only do nothing but made a long blood curling scream, but no one will hear him, for the door to the hot springs was closed and he was silenced with a knife through the head.
Ted was out camping, a warm fire lit up, a stew a cookin’ and the rain pit-patting on his tent. Ted discovers that he left his fishing rod near the lake, Because earlier he was fishing. Ted made a walk to the lake, It was only a mere half a mile away so he didn’t took long. He picked up his rod and wanders back to camp. Then he heard something that startled him. He could see it WAY over where his camp is. A large shadow walked towards his tent, it paused for a moment, and then walked off. It was an intruder! “Hey,” said Ted. “What the hell you’re doing to my tent?” Ted pulls out a machete and ran towards his camp. As he made it the intruder was gone. It appears that there was no sign of anything stolen. To check more, Ted enters his tent and made a startling discovery. His hunting knife and his harpoon are here. He recall misplacing his items but now it’s back as if someone borrowed it and then returned it. But the return of his item was the scary part. The scary part is that his items were drenched in blood.
