The only thing I could think of worse than spending the summer with a bunch of people I didn't know in a place I've never been was spending the summer with my father and his new family. So I chose the lesser of two evils. Don't get me wrong, it was gorgeous. Breathtaking, in fact. However, I had horrible social skills, and would much rather spend my time alone on a beach with only my music as company than with a bunch of other teens that were only interested in finding boyfriends and girlfriends to get with during the stay. Not my cup of tea. So when my mother left for Spain with her new boyfriend who, apparently, meant more to he than I did, I was forced to find another place to stay. It wasn't all that bad though, I couldn't complain about all of the food and services the camp provided. I huffed as a girl called out to me from a distance. I thought about pretending to not hear her but instead approached cautiously, as I really needed directions. As I headed towards her, my guitar case tapped lightly against the backs of my knees, and my keyboard began to feel heavy in my arms. When I got closer I slowed down and stopped a ways away from her.
"Um...hello." I whispered so softly that I wasn't certain whether she heard me or not. Hopefully she would see that I needed help and point me in the direction of my room quickly and with minimal attempts at conversation.
I was never much of a talker, and tried to do so only where necessary. Because of this I didn't have many friends, but it was better that way, I thought.
{Lock will likely only have one or two good friends by the end of summer due to his personality...because he takes a long while to warm up to people and get close to them. He's not mean, just horribly shy and awkward with others, but it is often mistaken as him being rude. ^^}}
