Vinyl and Octavia meet at summer camp. They can't stand each other at first, but as time passes on, they soon realize that there is more to summer than having fun on the beach.

When it comes to summer, most of us think about beaches, vacationing, travel, BBQ's, pool parties, etc. But for two girls, all they can think about is each other.

I also want to give a shout-out and very special thanks to my proofreader Wolfie 03. You've been a really great help to me for this story and deserve a lot of credit for helping me make it what it is. You're a really awesome person, and words can't even begin to describe how glad I am that you helped me out.

Warning: This story contains scenes of mild sexual content, some strong course language, and mild violence.

Not So Happy Camper Pt.1

I looked out the window of my room, thinking about all the fun I was going to miss with my friends this summer. All of them were going to DJ Fest XIV and I was going to be stuck at some stupid camp for the next three months. I sighed softly and got out of bed. I looked around my still darkened room - sunlight doesn't start shining in my room for another two hours - trying to find a place to hide from all of this. But sadly, it was no use trying to fight it, if I didn't go to this camp, mom would keep me in solitary for the whole summer. I flipped on the light on my nightstand, cringing a bit as the light hit my eyes full blast. I looked around the room again, not really knowing why in the first place.

There was a knock at my door, "Vinyl, sweetheart, are you up yet?"

"Yeah mom, I just got up."

"Well hurry up and get dressed and come downstairs for breakfast."

I walked over to the dresser and opened it up. I pulled out a dark blue sleeveless shirt and a tight black miniskirt. I took off my pajamas and looked at my naked body in the mirror. I cupped my breasts for a second and then let them go. "I swear these things keep getting bigger every week." I got dressed quickly and ran downstairs where I was greeted by my little brother.

"Good morning sis."

"Good morning snot breath," I said playfully.

He giggled and went back to playing with his toy cars.

I walked into the kitchen where I was greeted with the smell of freshly made pancakes drizzled in honey and maple syrup, vegetarian sausages, and lightly buttered toast. My mouth began watering as I walked over to the stove.

"Have a seat Vinyl, it'll be ready in a moment."

I sat down at the small dining table in the living room and turned on the TV. Of course the first thing that was on was my little brother's Saturday morning cartoons. I sighed to myself and put the remote down. If I tried to change the channel now, Tex would start throwing a fit. I sat there in extreme boredom for what felt like hours before mom finally came in and set our breakfast on the table.

"Tex, come on son before it gets cold."

"Awwwwww but the show is just getting to the best part," he whined.

"You know you're not allowed to eat food on the couch."

He rolled his eyes and walked over to the table. He climbed up into his booster seat and looked down at his plate, "Looks good mom."

"We better hurry up, we don't want Vinyl to be late for her first day at camp."

I looked at her, "But mom, do I really have to go to this camp? I mean, it seems kind of pointless if you ask me."

"Vinyl, this camp is not just something I'm making you do to get you out of the house for three months. I'm sending you there so that you can learn to be an independent woman. You're eighteen now, and pretty soon you'll need to know how to live on your own. That's what this camp is for."

Tex seemed confused, "But I thought camp was all about having fun and having adventures in the woods."

"Not all the time, though it may seem that way at first, many camps will use what they do to teach kids skills they would need in real life."

"How does that work?" he asked, stabbing one of his sausages with his fork.

"I'm not sure to be perfectly honest. But it seems to work most of the time."

I continued to eat in silence while my mom and my brother continued to talk about what camp life was supposed to be like. I couldn't stand it to be honest, it only made me hate the idea of going to camp even more. How I wished I was with my friends on their way to DJ Fest.

Mom turned and looked at me with concern, "Vinyl, are you alright?"

"I'm fine, I just really don't see the point of me going."

"I already told you why I'm sending you to camp."

"I know, but I don't see why I can't just learn all that stuff from you."

"I'm doing this for your own good."

"But all my other friends are going to DJ Fest, and I really wanted to go with them."

"You're too young for that kind of thing Vinyl."

"I'm eighteen, I can take care of myself."

"No you can't, you're too young to be going to parties like that."

"Nothing like that goes on at DJ Fest."

"How do you know?" my brother asked.

"I just do okay."

"Look Vinyl, you're going to camp and that's final. Life isn't all about music and DJs."

I groaned in annoyance, and left the table and went back up to my room, slamming the door behind me. Why can't parents just be more understanding? I heard a knock on my door and my mom walked in. She walked over to my bed and sat down next to me.

"Vinyl, I'm only doing what's best for you. When you're older you can go out and do whatever you want to. But for now, you have to listen to what I say. Understand?" she asked comfortingly.

"I understand."

"Good, now hurry up and get packed, we need to be there in a couple of hours," she said as she got up and left my room.

I got up from my bed and began to pack everything I could fit into my suitcase, filling it to the point that it can barely close. I picked it up and lugged it downstairs, setting it down with a heavy thud.

"What's in that thing, bricks?" Tex asked.

"It's only the essentials."

He shrugged it off and mom walked into the room, "Are you two ready to go?"

"As ready as I'll ever be."

"You'll be okay Vinyl, trust me."

I rolled my eyes as we headed out the door. I walked up to the car and put my suitcase in the truck, slamming it shut. Mom was adjusting Tex in his car seat by the time I got into the car. I closed the door, and put in my earphones and shut myself off from the world around me. Mom got into the car and tapped me on the shoulder. I took off one of my earphones and looked at her, "What?"

"There's something that I want to talk to you about later when Tex falls asleep."

"Alright," I said, putting my earphone back in as we drove off towards camp.

About thirty minutes into the drive, Tex finally fell asleep and mom tapped me on the shoulder again.

"Vinyl, you know I love you a lot right?"

"Yeah."

"And you know that nothing will ever change that?"

"Yeah," I said, kind of wondering why she was asking me these questions.

"I read your journal Vinyl, I know."

I turned and looked at her with shock, "Y-You read my...journal?"

"It was only that one time. Vinyl, I don't hate you for who you are."

"Y-You know that I..." tears began to fill my eyes.

"Vinyl, it's okay. I don't hate you because of that. You are who you are and nobody can change who you are."

"But I thought you'd hate me over it."

"Vinyl, I'm your mother, no matter what happens, I will always love you. It doesn't matter that you're a lesbian or not."

"Why didn't you say anything about it before?"

"Because I wanted to wait until the time was right to talk about it."

"Why did it have to be now?"

"Because there's another reason I'm sending you to this camp. I want you to find love."

"You mean...you want me to get a girlfriend?"

"Of course, you're old enough to know when you're in love with someone."

"But how do I..."

"That's up to you. I can't help you with love, you have to figure it out on your own."

My mind went completely blank and I just sat there in silence. I wasn't sure how to process any of this. She's sending me to camp to find love? I thought it was for me to become an independent woman. Maybe finding love is part of it. Or maybe it's the final step to all of it. I wasn't even sure if my thoughts were making any sense anymore.

After about another hour of driving, we finally made it to Camp Crystal Lake. I looked around at all the people there, and was surprised by how excited they seemed to be. I figured that most kids would hate be shoved off to camp for the summer, but I guess I was wrong. We found a place to park and got out of the car. I grabbed my suitcase out of the trunk and set it on the ground. Mom walked around to the back and greeted me with a warm smile.

"Have fun while you're here. And don't forget about what we talked about."

"I won't."

She gave me a quick hug, "I love you Vinyl."

"I love you too mom."

"Promise me you'll stay safe while you're here."

"I promise."

She gave me another smile and got back into the car. I waved goodbye as she backed out of her parking spot and left the camp. I picked my suitcase back up and made my way to the center of the camp where everyone else had gathered. There must have been about two hundred kids here, chattering, giggling, or just awkwardly waiting for something to happen. After a few moments we all heard a loud screeching sound that caused us all to jump.

"Good afternoon everyone," said the woman standing behind a podium. "My name is Mrs. Melody, welcome to Camp Crystal Lake. I run this camp along with my husband, Mr. Melody. Before we go over the rules, I would like to talk to all of you about what this camp is about. This camp is about teaching young men and women how to become better people and teaching the skills necessary for you all to become independent. While you are here, you will all learn the most important skills you will need in order to live on your own, such as making important life decisions and things of that nature. Though it may seem boring, we also love to take time to have fun and relax for a couple of days. Which is why for the first three days, you can all do whatever you like. But then, we get serious and begin our work on making you all into wonderful and respectable adults. Now, I would like to turn it over to Mr. Melody who will go over the rules."

She walked away from the podium and Mr. Melody took his place, "Thank you, and I would also like to say, welcome. Over the next three months, you will embark on a journey that will change your lives. But, this journey isn't without its rules. The first rule of CCL is no harassment of any of your fellow campers. If we get a report about you harassing, or catch you harassing another camper, you will be sent home immediately. The second rule is, no inappropriate relationships with fellow campers. Now, I'm not saying that you cannot start dating another camper, all I'm saying is keep it PG. The third rule is..."

Ugh how long is this going to go on, I thought to myself. I began to look around at everyone here to see who they were, hoping that one of my friends was also sent here. But to my dismay, none of them were here. As I continued to look around the crowd, I found a few girls that I might try to get to know and maybe ask out, though I doubt they'd go for a girl like me. I looked back at the podium as Mr. Melody was finally getting done telling us the rules.

"And the final rule here at CCL is maintain a positive outlook as best you can. Now that we've gotten the rules out of the way, lets get you all assigned to your cabins. Boys' cabins are located on the eastern side of the camp, and girls' are on the western side of the camp. All of you head to your sides of the camp and then me and Mrs.Melody will assign you your cabins."

Everyone picked up their bags and headed straight for the cabins. They weren't too big when you looked at them, maybe only a couple hundred square feet at the most, which to me felt a little too small. Finally everyone arrived at their sides of the camps and began to get cabins assigned to them. I was the last one called on the list and was sent to cabin 213-G. Mrs. Melody handed me the key to the cabin and I hauled my suitcase over to it. The odd thing about this cabin was that it was the largest out of all of them, though not by too much, but still enough to be noticeable. As I made my way to the cabin, I began to think I was going to be the only one staying in it, seeing as how I was the only one called for it. I made it to the cabin and opened the door and was greeted by an unexpected roommate.

Not So Happy Camper Pt.2

I sat my suitcase down next to the door and stared at her blankly. She was sitting on her bed reading what appeared to be an orchestra magazine. She had long, flowing black hair that anyone would want to run their fingers through. Deep violet eyes that looked deeper than the oceans themselves. She was everything you could possibly want in a girl. She looked at me for a moment, our eyes meeting for a brief second before I shyly looked down to the ground, hoping she didn't notice my staring.

I shuffled my feet and hid my arms behind my back, a faint blush coming across my face, "H-Hello. My name is Vinyl Scratch."

The girl slipped a bookmark into the magazine and closed it, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Vinyl. I'm Octavia Melody. It is a pleasure making your acquaintance." She held out her hand to me. I stumbled a bit as I walked towards her, my legs seeming to turn into jello beneath me. I reached out my now trembling hand and grasped hers, her skin feeling smoother than it looked.

"So, I'm guessing that by your name you're the daughter of the owners of this camp?" My voiced trembling with every word.

"You guessed right," I could tell by the way she was looking at me, my nervousness was more than obvious. "Are you alright?"

"Me...hehe...I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me."

"If you say so," she picked her magazine back up and continued reading.

"So what are you reading exactly?"

"It's the latest issue of Violinist Quarterly. There's an article in here about the latest scandal between Alberto Von Ramirez and Kathryne Balderas."

"Who?"

"The two best violinists in the country. Rumors say that they are expecting a child together, even though they supposedly aren't even dating."

I shrugged, "If you say so."

She looked at me inquisitively, "I take it you're not a big fan of classical music."

"Not really, I mostly prefer electronic music, alternate rock, and nu metal."

"Interesting."

"What?"

She waved her hand in the air dismissively, "It's nothing."

"You just said that like it was a bad thing. Do you have something against the kind of music I listen to?"

"It's not the music at all, it's the people who listen to it."

"And what's wrong with the people who listen too it," my nostrils started flaring at what I was hearing form a girl that I just met.

"For one thing, they are loud and extremely obnoxious, always causing whatever trouble that they could dare think of. Another reason is that they are some of the most rude people to ever exist, only caring for themselves and not giving a damn about anyone else. And finally, they just cannot seem to get any type of grasp on the real world, they are too wrapped up in the psychotic chaos in which they dwell in. Does that answer your question, because I could keep going if you want me to?"

I couldn't believe what I had just heard. Do people really think that way about the people who listen the the music I listen to? Do they really see us as rude, obnoxious, trouble causing teens who need to grow up? This couldn't possibly be true. I grew up listening to that type of music all my life, and I turned out just fine. I've had no troubles with the law, I've keep good grades in school, I made it one of my priorities to help anyone who needs it, and I make sure that I'm not bothering anyone when I'm doing anything. So how on earth could I possibly believe anything she just said.

For a moment I thought about punching her in the face repeatedly until her nose was nothing but dust, I even had my fists clenched tightly ready to do so. But then I thought about what my mother had told me when I was little, Vinyl, if your ever plan on hurting anyone in your life, you would have to have a good reason to do so. Otherwise, you'll end up getting into a lot of trouble you don't want to be in. I relaxed my fists and let my hands fall back to my sides. Not wanting to piss myself off any further, I turned around and stomped back to the door, yanking my suitcase from where it was sitting and tossing it onto the empty bed hard enough to cause it to move up against the wall.

Octavia just stared at me, stunned by what she had just seen, "I didn't mean to offend you, but that is how I feel about that."

I walked out of the cabin and made my way back to the center of camp, my footsteps still beating heavily beneath me. The other campers were gathering around in the center of camp once again, signalling that an important announcement might be going on right now. I tried to relax myself as I made my way into the crowd, only getting angrier as I saw Octavia already standing there. HOW THE FUCK IS SHE THAT FAST?! She smiled and waved at me. I just ignored her and walked to the opposite end of the crowd as far away from as possible, people complaining as I accidentally stomped on their toes. I managed to find a less crowded spot in the crowd and I jammed myself in, feeling a little bit more than claustrophobic, but it was better than anywhere else in the crowd. How anyone finds this comfortable is beyond me. Everyone stood there for a few minutes before Mrs.Melody took her spot behind the podium.

"May I have everyone's attention?" she announced, holding a clipboard in the air for emphasis. Everyone in the crowd fell silent, "Now, I hope everyone is all settled in your cabins and have become somewhat acquainted with your roommates, because they will be your partners in our activities for the next three months."

Are you fucking kidding me? You mean I have to be stuck with that stuck up bitch for the next three months. Why don't you just put a knife through my heart and get it over with.

"Today is a very special day. Every year here at CCL we like to have a huge welcoming party for all of our new campers. However, everyone here will each be in charge of different tasks to help us all get set up for this party, some of you will be preparing the foods, others setting up decorations, setting up games, and making the music playlists. Since we have two hundred campers, we will be dividing you each into large groups so we can get everything done on time, though some groups will be larger than others so don't expect there to an equal amount to people for each group. In order to determine which group you will be in, you will all draw a ticket from a hat that Mr.Melody will be walking around with. Each ticket is a different color. There are 60 red tickets for people to help prepare food, 70 blue tickets for people to set up the decorations, 68 pink tickets for people to set up the games, and 2 gold tickets for people to make the party's music playlists. So, without further ado, I'll let Mr.Melody begin handing out tickets."

With that Mr.Melody began walking around with a small top hat. In my mind I was hoping to get a gold ticket, but also hoping that Octavia doesn't get the other one. I began to fidget around where I was standing, looking around to see who might already have the gold tickets. So far, neither one of them had been drawn from what I could see, which meant that either they were still in there, or they were already taken. It didn't take too long before Mr.Melody got to me. He held out the top hat and I reached inside fumbling for what I was hoping to be a gold ticket. I pulled my hand out as soon as I grabbed a ticket, yanking it out as quickly as I could. I looked down at my closed fist, watching at it shook in front of me. I began to pray that it was the gold ticket. I closed my eyes and opened my hand. Nervously, I opened my eyes and looked down at my hand and began hopping up and down with joy.

"So, looks like you and I are going to be working on the music together. How lovely. Just make sure not to go overboard with the electronics," chimed an all too annoying voice.

FUCK MY LIFE!

I trudged back to the cabin, hardly even taking the time to even lift my feet. Out of all the people I could be paired with, it had to be her. What did I ever do to deserve this hell? I finally made it to the cabin and miserably opened the door, letting out a long sigh of exasperation. I walked over to my bed, my foot steps quickly clicking against the wooden floor. My suitcase was now laying on the floor next to the bed, probably having been knocked off by it's own momentum when I threw it. I lugged it back up on the bed and slowly opened the front pocket and removed my laptop. I opened it up, being greeted by it short bell like tone as the screen lit up.

"So, what are you going to be picking for the party?" asked a voice coming from the door.

I looked up and then looked back down, not wanting anything to even do with her, "I'm not sure yet, but knowing you so far, you're going to hate all of my options."

"I already told you, I don't have anything against the music, it's just the people who listen to it."

"Whatever, just get your ass over here so we can get this shit done with."

Her mouth hit the floor and bounced up hard enough to give her whiplash, "WATCH YOUR LANGUAGE!"

"Oh, I'm sorry, would you please get your gluteus maximus over here so we can get this defecated waste done with."

"Are you mocking my vocabulary usage?"

"You tell me, I'm just making my question more polite."

She stomped her way to my bed and flopped down with enough force to lift me a couple of inches into the air, "Just because you're angry with me, it doesn't give you the right to mock me."

"Whatever, let's just hurry and get this done before the party starts without us."

"Fine, let's see what you got on here."

I began scrolling through all the songs that I had on my lap top, occasionally getting small ticks of disapproval every now and then. Though there were times when she'd openly complain about a certain song, she would agree to have it in the list. And finally, after what felt like years, we managed to scrape up a decent list of songs for the party.

"Are you ready to get it all hooked up?" she asked exhausted.

"As ready as I'm ever going to be."

We gathered up my lap top and a few chords to get everything hooked up to the speaker system and made our way back to the center of camp. It was already getting to be sunset by the time everyone started the final touches on everything. People were scrambling this way and that in order to make sure everything was perfect. The food was set up along the left end of the massive courtyard, for games we had corn whole, bobbing for apples, ring toss, and other typical camp games, the decorations were simple and not too flashy, just some ribbons and balloons here and there, and at the center of it all, was a massive surround sound speaker system with enough bass to knock everyone to there knees.Octavia and I managed to get everything set up as Mrs.Melody stepped back up to the podium.

"Good job everyone, you all did an outstanding job getting everything set up and ready to go. So, let's get this party started," she waved her hand over to me and Octavia, signaling for us to start the music.

I cranked up the volume on the speakers and clicked on the playlist for it to start. Immediately, people began to go wild and enjoy themselves. Most started heading for the buffet table before it all gets cleaned out.

"You wait here, I'm going to get us some food before it's all gone. What would you like me to get you?" Octavia asked as she turned to face the buffet table.

"A couple of hot dogs with ketchup, mustard, and chili if they have any, some potato salad, and a glass of fruit punch to drink."

"Okay, I'll be right back," She stumbled her way through the crowd to get to the table. After about ten minutes she finally returned with two plates of food, setting mine on the small stand next to me. "They were all out of potato salad so I got you some loaded potato skins, if that's alright with you."

"It's cool. Hey, I'm sorry about earlier."

"You mean about mocking the way I talk?"

"That, and the fact that we got off on the wrong foot. I shouldn't have gotten so angry over one little opinion. It only makes me look like a real jerk."

"Apology accepted. How about after the party we get to know each other a little better?"

"Sounds like a plan to me," I picked up my plate and began chowing down on my hot dogs, finishing them off in about a minute.

"Someone sure was hungry," Octavia laughed.

I grinned slightly and started working on the loaded potato skins, finishing them off just as fast as I did the hot dogs. I looked over at Octavia, who had a shocked look on her face. She was barely half way through her first dog and I was already done with my food.

I giggled slightly and patted her on the shoulder, "So Tavi, can I call you that?"

"It's fine with me."

"Cool, so how about you and I go hit some games."

"Sure, but let me finish eating first," she kicked her eating into high gear, or at least high gear for her, and finished eating in about five minutes. "So, what do you want to do first?"

"How about the three legged race?"

"Alright then."

We made our way to the three legged race where there was already a long line of people waiting to race. Luckily the line was moving fast and we were up at the starting line in no time. I picked up the rope and Tavi tied it around our ankles. We struggled to get used to it at first, but got the hang of it by the time we got to our spot on the starting line.

"Ready...Set...GO!!"

Everyone began bolting towards the finish line, tripping over one another as they forgot to keep in sync with their partners. About halfway near the finish line, my foot got snagged on a rock and I fell face first on the ground, with Tavi falling right next to me. From behind me, I heard a faint cracking sound as my foot twisted to the left. My blood churning scream could be heard a mile away and everyone stopped dead in their tracks.

Mrs.Melody and three other people ran up to me, "Are you alright, Vinyl?"

"No, I think I broke my ankle."

"Can you move it?"

"I think so," I tried to turn my foot to the right, but the pain kept me from even making the slightest twitch.

"Octavia, untie yourself quick and go get Nurse Redheart."

Tavi reached around her body and quickly untied herself and began racing off to the nurse's office. A quick moment later, she and Nurse Redheart were by my side. They carefully turned my over and lifted my leg. Nurse Redheart began to feel up and down my left ankle, causing to hurt more.

"Well, nothing's broken. It's just a sever sprain. I'll just wrap your leg up and suggest that you stay on crutches for the next week or so in order to prevent any further damage," she reached into her small medical bag and pulled out a roll of elastic cast and began to wrap it tightly around my foot.

"I'll take you back to the cabin," Tavi said as she and Nurse Redheart got me up from the ground

"Thanks Tavi."

We slowly made our way back to the cabin and got me into bed.

"Don't worry about your stuff, I'll bring it back here after the party's over. Just get some sleep and I'll see you in the morning."

"Thanks again for the help Tavi, goodnight."

"Goodnight," she shut off the light and closed the door behind her.

I laid my head back onto my pillow, letting sleep quickly take me into it's open arms.

Getting Off On The Right Foot

It was early morning by the time I woke up. I looked over at Tavi's bed to find her sleeping comfortably. I sat up and looked on the nightstand where my lap top and other equipment were well organized. Tavi began shifting in her bed and turned over to face me, eyes half open and a warm smile across her face.

"Good morning," her voice a joyous flow.

"Morning, thanks for bringing my stuff back."

"It was no trouble at all. Also, I meant to do this yesterday but, I'm really sorry about the things that I said. It wasn't right of me to think that way about you based on my presumptions."

"I'm still a little hurt by it to be honest. But if I may ask, where did you get the presumptions to begin with."

"My ex girlfriend was into that kind of stuff. A lot of the time we were together, her friends would come along with us and were really annoying. It eventually got to the point that I just couldn't stand them anymore. So I gave her an ultimatum, either she tells her friends to leaves us be or it's over. She ended up choosing her friends over me, saying that I was nothing more than a high class bitch that meant nothing to her," tears began to fill her eyes as she told her story.

I was shocked to her that. No one deserves to be treated that way. Now I understand why she felt that way about me at first. I don't really blame her to be honest, after going through that, it would make anyone have a hatred towards a group of people. Though her words were harsh, she had a reason for them. I kinda felt worse about the things that I had said to her.

"Tavi, I'm really sorry to hear that. No one ever deserves to have that happen to them."

"I know it's wrong to hate people based on one little experience, but..." her voice began to weaken and her tears began staining her cheeks.

"It's alright Tavi, that was then. You can't let minor things that happened in the past effect how you see your future. You need to be glad you're not with her anymore. Most likely she was just one of those girls who only wanted you for one thing."

She sniffed and wiped her tears away, "Now that you mention it, I think I overheard one of her friends asking when she was going to make the move on me."

"See, she was nothing but a tramp who wanted to use you."

She smiled at me and got out of her bed. She walked over to me and wrapped her arms around me. I was taken aback at first, but gave in to better judgment and welcomed her sudden embrace. "Thank you, for making me feel better about that."

She let go of me and walked back over to her bed and sat on the edge. She looked out the window as the sun was just starting to peak over the horizon, casting the first of the days shadows into the room. She said nothing, but from the way she looked, the sunset reminded her of a fond memory.

"What are you thinking about?"

"Every time I watch the sunset, I think of when my mom gave me my first violin. I was seven years old, and it was the morning of my birthday. I had just woken up and was finishing getting dressed for the day. Mom walked in carrying a box with a little pink bow on it. I didn't know what it was at first, but mom told me to be careful with it since it wasn't a toy. I opened it up with the greatest of care and was overjoyed when I saw the violin inside."

"Sounds like your mom really cares about you."

"She does, that's why I love this place. Mom said this camp will be mine to own when she and dad retire. What about you, Vinyl? What are some childhood memories that you have with your mom?"

My heart sank at her question. There was a secret about my mom that I never told anyone. Well, my real mom that is. When I was a child my mother used to abuse me physically and sexually. She would beat me until she broke several of my bones and sometimes flat out refused to take me to the hospital over it. Then one day, one of my friends came over to my house while this was going on and rushed to tell my neighbors who then called the police. She's still spending time in prison and I doubt she'll be getting out any time soon.

Not too long after that I was put into foster care and was in and out of homes. That was until last year when I was put into the home of my current foster mother, Scarlet, and her other foster child Tex. They became more like my real family than my real family. I've really enjoyed the time I've been with them.

"Vinyl, are you alright?"

I snapped back into reality and looked around the room like it was the first time I'd even seen it before, "What?"

"You spaced out on me there for a moment. Are you feeling alright? Because I could get Nurse Redheart to check up on you."

"No, I'm alright, thanks though."

"So what's on your mind?"

"I was just thinking about my bitch of a mother."

"Oh, is it anything you want to talk about?"

"No, it'll just make things worse."

"Fair enough. We'd better get ready for the day, today we're going on a nature walk."

"But how can I do that when I have a sprained ankle?"

"Nurse Redheart brought your crutches in a little bit after I got back to the cabin with your stuff."

"Where are they?"

"Right next to you."

I looked back over next to the nightstand and saw the crutches leaning against it. How I didn't notice them earlier was beyond me. Tavi got for me and helped me to get out of bed. I struggled to get used to them at first, but managed to get the hang of it after about ten minutes.

"Now, we'd better head off to the showers before they get really crowed."

"I-I'm not really too comfortable getting naked around other people."

"Trust me, I'm not either, but at least it'll only be the two of us in there so we can both be on the front and back of the shower room."

"Wait...what? The way that sounds doesn't seem all that good."

"You'll see what I mean when we get there."

We left the cabin and made our way to the shower room. In my mind, I was imagining some kind of giant room where the showers had no curtains or doors for privacy, and the showers were grouped together in little circles or they were just little shower heads mounted against the walls. It only took us about two minutes to get to the shower room which was a lot different than what I pictures in my head. On the outside it looked just like the bathrooms you would find at the local parks, but as we went inside i was amazed by how different it looked from what I was thinking. The sowers were little stalls with walls that went from the floor to just about five inches short of the ceiling and had a lockable door on them that didn't didn't leave any small cracks to peek through, which in my opinion was the best part.

"So, Vinyl, I'll take the shower at the very end, and you can take the very first shower next to the entrance."

"Sounds good to me, the less I have to walk with these stupid things the better."

She giggled and walked on down to her shower and stepped inside. I stepped into my shower as best I could without the crutches to keep me from walking on my sprained ankle. Though it was awkward at first, I managed to keep my balance while showering, drying off, and getting dressed. Once I got out of the shower, I was greeted by Tavi and she handed me my crutches. We walked towards the center of the camp, where Mr. and Mrs.Melody were waiting next to the podium.

"Good morning girls," chimed Mrs.Melody.

"Good morning Mrs.Melody," I smiled.

"Morning mom."

"Did you two sleep well last night?" asked Mr.Melody.

"I did, though I'm not so sure about Vinyl."

I looked at her with a confused expression on my face, "What do you mean?"

"You were tossing, turning, and making occasional moaning sounds."

I blushed really deeply and looked away, Fuck, I thought she wasn't in while I was doing that.

"Must've been some nightmare then huh?" asked Mrs.Melody.

"Uh...y-yeah...a nightmare," I said in between slight bits of nervous laughter.

Though her parents didn't catch onto it, Tavi managed to figure it out and looked at me with a look of shock and disgust. I shot her a quick look back saying, Don't look at me like that.

Before too long, other campers began to file into the center of camp, ready for the today's events.

"Good morning campers, I hope you all slept well last night," Mrs.Melody began. "Today, we will be going on a nature walk and explore the wonders that the forest has to offer. Now, I want each of you to pair up with your roommates and meet at the camp's west entrance after you all have breakfast."

Everyone walked to the mess hall that was right next to Mr. and Mrs.Melody's cabin. As Tavi and I made it inside, we were greeted to the smell of freshly cooked eggs, bacon, toast, waffles, sausage, biscuits and gravy, and homemade maple syrup. I went to grab a trey, but Tavi stopped me.

"Go get a table and I'll bring you your breakfast. The less stress you put on your body right now, the more likely your sprain will heal faster."

"Thanks Tavi, just get me some eggs, waffles with syrup, a couple of biscuits, and a glass of milk to drink."

"Sure thing."

I walked over to the closest table I could get to the entrance and sat down. I continued to think about my real mom and everything she had put me through. As I continued to think about it, I remembered that her sentence in prison was going to be over with in a few days. I was hoping that she wasn't going to try to come for me when she got out. I doubted it, I moved around so much she might never be able to find me, but there was always the possibility that she could. As I continued thinking, Tavi came to our table and put my breakfast in front of me.

"Thanks, Tavi," I picked up my fork and began eating in silence.

"Vinyl, are you sure you don't to at least talk about what's on your mind to Nurse Redheart? She might be able to help you with anything you're going through."

"I'm fine, Tavi, if it gets any worse, I'll go and talk to someone, but for now I'm fine."

"If you say so."

We continued to eat in silence, occasionally exchanging concerned looks with each other. Finally we finished out breakfast and made our way to the west entrance of camp, where everyone was already there waiting on us.

"Good, now that everyone's here, let's get going," Mr.Melody said, leading us into the forest.

The Great Outdoors

Mr.Melody lead us into the forest to embark on what called a "needed experience". I don't really see why though, the only things to look at around here are trees, trees, trees, and more freaking trees. It bored the living hell out of me. I began to wonder how my friends were doing at DJ Fest, they were probably having the time of their lives not even caring that I was dying of boredom right now. They better at least bring me back a CD signed by DJ Unrated, though I doubt that they'd even do that for me. Stuck up pricks.

I must have been voicing my thoughts a little loudly because Tavi tapped me on the shoulder, "Are you alright, Vinyl? You seem to be complaining an awful lot."

I sighed and looked at her, "I'm just a little pissed, that's all."

"Why, did something happen? Did I do anything to make you angry? Because if I did, I apologize for it."

"It's not you. It's just my friends are off at DJ Fest and I'm stuck here. They probably don't even care that I'm dying of boredom as we speak."

"Well, if it worries you so much, how about you try giving them a call."

"I would, but I doubt my phone would get any signal here in the middle of nowhere."

"No need to worry about that, you can borrow my phone," she reached into her back pocket and pulled out her IPhone 5S and handed it to me.

"Thanks, I owe you one."

"Remember that the next time you pleasure yourself in our cabin."

"Will you let that go?"

"How can I? I walk in thinking that you're having some kind of nightmare, only to find out this morning that you were doing that!"

Everyone looked back at us in surprise and annoyance.

"Do you think you could be a little louder?" I snapped, a faint blush coming across my face.

"Well sorry, I was only voicing my opinion on the subject. If you don't like it you can talk to someone else."

"That's what I was planning on doing before you brought that up."

"Well get to it, I'm not stopping you."

I cursed her under my breath and began to dial my friend's number. It rang, and rang, and rang forever until finally she picked up.

"Hello, who is this?" asked a somewhat annoyed voice.

"Hey Pinkie, it's me. What's up?"

"Vinyl? Do you even realize what time it is right now?"

"It's uhhh..." I looked at the phone screen for a second, "it's about a quarter after ten."

"Well, it's a quarter after midnight here."

"Sorry, didn't mean to wake you up."

"Look, the next time you think about calling me this early in the morning. Please don't."

"I didn't even know it was that time over there."

"Whatever, I'll call you back as soon as I get some more sleep."

"This isn't my phone so I wouldn't try that."

"Fine, just call me some other time," she hung up.

"Bitch," I handed Tavi her phone back and continued along the nature trail, still being bored by the sight of all these godforsaken trees. Someone just kill me now.

All of a sudden, Mr.Melody stopped us and pointed up into an old tree, "See there kids, that's an abandoned wasp nest. From the looks of it, it's been abandoned for weeks now."

I looked up into the tree and spotted the nest, as well as a few things flying around it. Mr.Melody picked up a long stick and held it up towards the wasp's nest, "Um...Mr.Melody, I wouldn't do that if I were you."

He turned to face me, "It's alright, Vinyl, I can handle it."

"There are still wasps living in that nest."

He ignored me and began to poke the nest vigorously with the stick, causing a loud buzzing noise to emanate from the nest. Everyone began to panic as wasps began to fly out of the nest by the hundreds. People started screaming and running off back towards camp. Not thinking, I darted off to my left as best I could on my crutches, not even hearing Tavi calling after me.

"VINYL, THAT'S NOT THE WAY BACK TO CAMP!"

I couldn't think straight out of fear, I just kept going deeper and deeper into the forest, not even paying any attention to the turns I was making along the way. From behind me, I could hear the faint sounds of foot steps coming towards me, only making me move faster to try to avoid them, thinking it was someone being followed by wasps. After about five minutes of what could pass for running in my condition, I managed to find a small place to catch my breath. I sat myself down on a large rock and looked up into the sky. The sun was beating down harshly on me, causing me to sweat more than I already was. I leaned back against the tree behind the rock, managing to get a little bit of shade.

I closed my eyes for a second, only to jolt them back open at the sound of a snapping twig. I looked over my shoulder to find a shadowy figure standing behind me. I began screaming at the top of my lungs, only to have my mouth covered up immediately by some random hand.

"Vinyl, calm down. It's just me," said a familiar voice.

I pulled her hand off of my mouth, "Damn it Tavi, you scared the shit out of me."

"What did I tell you about watching your language?"

"You should be lucky that I didn't punch you in the face."

"Look, we need to get back to camp before it gets late. And judging by the look on your face you don't even remember how you got here."

I stared blankly at her for a few moments, "Not really...but at least you have a phone that works out here. Why don't you pull it out and get on the navigator so we can find our way back to camp?"

She rolled her eyes and pulled out her phone, "Shit."

"And you complain about my language? What's wrong?"

"I don't even have a signal this far away from camp."

"You've got to be kidding me! You mean we're lost out here?"

"Well it wasn't my idea to run off like you did."

"Hey, I have a fear and allergy to wasps, so I do my best to avoid them."

"And that involves getting yourself lost in the middle of nowhere?"

"I didn't plan for it to happen."

"Of course you didn't. You planned on braking little pieces of bread and dropping them on the ground to follow back home."

"Are you just gonna stand there and bitch at me all day, or are you gonna help me up so we can find our way out of here?"

She scowled at me and gave me her hand and helped me up. We looked around for a few seconds to see which way we should go.

"So, any ideas?" she asked in a somewhat trembling voice.

I pointed in the direction she came from, "I guess just go back the way you came."

"Like I even remember the turns you took."

"Well it's our best option, take it or leave it."

"Fine, lead the way since you have such a great since of direction."

I flipped her off and started walking in the direction she came from.

"So, have you ever gotten lost out here before?" I asked.

"No, but I guess there's a first time for everything."

"And I also have to ask, did you really think I was having a nightmare last night, or were you just playing it off like that in front of your folks?"

She blushed deeply and looked away, "Well, to be honest, I knew what you were doing, I just didn't want to say anything about it."

"Why?"

"N-No reason."

"Don't tell me that you liked it," I giggled.

"I did not, I find that sort of thing highly inappropriate."

"Then why's your face red?"

"Sh-shut up!"

I burst out laughing and continued walking ahead of her, "So you do have the hots for me don't you?"

"Oh please, you're the last person I'd think of dating."

"Sure I am, then I guess the little moans I heard coming from your side of the cabin wasn't because of me."

"Y-You heard?"

"I'm not deaf, despite all the reasons why people would think I am."

She began blushing even deeper, "I-I didn't think you would notice."

I rolled my eyes, "I promise to keep it a secret if you do."

"What does that have to do with anything?"

"I don't know, but from the way you look, you seem to be begging me in your head to keep quiet about it."

She sighed, "You can read me like a book, can't you?"

"You're not that hard to figure out."

"Fine, I promise to keep your little act a secret."

"And I promise to tell everyone at camp that you did the same thing watching me," I burst out laughing even more.

"VINYL, THAT'S NOT FUNNY!!"

"Alright, I promise to keep it a secret as well."

She smiled and sighed in relief, "Thank you."

"That is until we get back to camp."

"That's not funny anymore, Vinyl."

We continued on in the direction that Tavi came form, only to find out we were getting ourselves even more lost.

"Do you think that we'll find our way back to camp?" I asked, turning around to find Tavi nowhere in sight. "Tavi? Tavi, you there? Hello?" I heard the slight rattling of leaves coming from one of the bushes and I crept closer, "Tavi are you back there?" The rattling continued to grow and I began to here the faint sound of water pouring onto the ground. I got up to the bush and pushed a few branches out of my way, "Tavi, what are you......"

She turned her head back, "VINYL!!"

I closed up the branches quickly and stood back up, When you gotta go, you gotta go I guess.

Tavi finally came out from behind the bushes and stared at me, "Didn't anyone teach you to knock?"

"In case you haven't noticed, there aren't any doors out here."

"You could've tapped on a tree or something instead of peeping in on me."

"I didn't know you would be taking a piss."

"I told you before I went behind the bushes."

"No you didn't."

"I specifically said, 'Vinyl, will you excuse me for a moment, I need to answer nature's call.' You said alright, so I went behind to take care of business."

"I didn't hear you then."

"And you said you weren't deaf."

"I was focusing on trying to find our way back to camp."

"Well you don't seem to be doing such a great job, otherwise we'd be out of here by now."

"Check and see if your phone is getting any signal."

She pulled her phone out and smiled for a brief second and then screaming at her phone the next, "Come on, you just had a little bit of signal."

"I guess that means we're getting closer, let's keep moving."

We continued following our path, having Tavi check her phone every few minutes to see if her signal was getting better, and sure enough, it was.

"I guess you were right about being closer to camp."

"What do you mean?"

"I can see some cabins in the distance."

"Where?"

She pointed in front of me and a little bit towards the right, and there they were.

"Well then hurry up," I began to walk as fast as I could towards the cabins.

"Wait up!" Tavi ran to catch up to me.

I continued walking until I finally reached to edge of site, stopping dead in my tracks.

Tavi finally caught up to me and looked at me, a concerned look growing on her face very quickly, "What is it?"

"I don't think this is Camp Crystal Lake."

Camp Crystal Lock-down

"W-What do you mean this isn't Camp Crystal Lake?" She looked at the buildings and then back at me and then back at the buildings again.

"Since when did the camp have a fifteen foot barbed wire fence?"

She looked closer at the buildings and noticed the fence, "Th-then...where are we?"

"The hell if I know, you're the one who was supposed to be keeping an eye on your phone."

"Hold on, let me check to see where we're at," she took her phone out of her pocket and looked at the navigator. "Um...Vinyl, according to this...we're five and a half miles northeast of camp."

"How the hell did we manage that?"

"I'm not sure, I was just following you."

"Well, do you happen do have a compass on hand or something?"

"Let me check on my phone," she tapped a few buttons on the screen and then turned away from me. "From what I'm seeing northeast is that way," she pointed in the direction we needed to go.

"Good, let's hurry up and..."

"THERE THEY ARE!!" called a stern voice behind me.

I quickly turned my head to find three armed security guards running in our direction. I tried to warn Tavi, but it was too late. By the time I turned back to face her, another two armed guards had her against a tree and were searching her. Before I could do anything, the guards behind me grabbed me and pinned me against a tree, making me drop my crutches.

"You two thought you could pull a fast one on us, didn't you?" asked the guard who had me pinned against the tree.

"What do you mean? We're just trying to get back to camp," I said, struggling against his grip, only to have him press tighter against me.

"Sure, and I bet you were planning to steal the computers there too."

"We weren't planning on stealing anything. We got lost on a nature hike and ended up finding our way here," Tavi tried to explain to no avail.

"Save it for someone who cares."

The guards slapped handcuffs on Tavi and I and began to lead us into what I now guessed was the Crystal County Detention Center. Hopefully they will allow us our one phone call so Tavi can clear this whole thing up for us. We made it around to the front of the building, greeted to the sight of military jeeps, police and swat vans, and hundreds upon hundreds of inmates. I looked over at Tavi who was visibly shaken by the sight. I was used to it though, growing up I'd be going in and out of prisons to visit my real mom.

"Are you alright Tavi?"

She looked over with a looked that said, Do I look alright?

"Don't worry, if they let us make a phone call, be sure to call your mom and dad back at camp and have them come here to clear it up."

The look on her face was now saying, Oh gee, why didn't I think of that?

I just rolled my eyes as the guards led us into the gates of the prison. We were then greeted by whistles and sexually based comments. I ignored them, but Tavi would respond harshly to them, only making them keep going.

"Tavi, shut your mouth. They'll quit as long as you don't give them any attention."

"And like I'm supposed to believe that?"

"I know how these things work, just trust me on this."

"So now I'm supposed to believe a kid who's been to jail before?"

"I've never been in jail, I've only visited when my mom was doing time."

She looked at me with shock and horror. Maybe I might have revealed a little too much too soon. But I figured now was as good a time as any to tell her about my mom.

"Tavi, there are some things that I need to tell you. But I think that we need to wait until this whole thing gets cleared up first."

"Is there something that you're hiding from me, because I don't want to know if this could get me into trouble."

"It won't...at least...I hope it doesn't. It's...it's really complicated right now," I looked away from her for a second with a small tear running down my face.

She looked at me with concern, obviously noticing how much it hurt me just to think about it. Leaving the issue be, we were lead into a building marked, Inmate Security Checkpoint. The guards uncuffed us and sat us down on a rusty metal bench.

"Alright, I think you two know what happens now?"

Me and Tavi looked at each other and then back at the guard, not really knowing what he was talking about.

"Don't play dumb with me, you know what needs to be done here."

"Not really, mind giving a hint?" I asked, acting oblivious, even though I know where this was going.

"Full cavity search."

Tavi looked over at me with a look of confusion as if to ask, Do I really want to know?

I looked over at her and leaned into her ear, "A full cavity search is where they search every part of your body."

She jolted up from me and was staring at me in total shock. She leaned back and began whispering in my ear, "You mean they even search our...v-v-v..."

"Yep, they even search our vaginas."

She jumped up from the bench, "OH FUCK NO!! I'M SO NOT ALLOWING THAT TO HAPPEN!!"

The guard grabbed her arms and sat her back down on the bench, "Sit down and be quiet! Or would you like to be first?"

She shrank down in her seat in fear and kept quiet. I wanted to say something to comfort her, but I was just as scared as she was. Who wouldn't be? We're in the middle of one of the most hostile prisons in Crystal County, and we're both about to get every single inch of our bodies searched for contraband. I wasn't looking forward to any of this any more than Tavi was.

After a short few moments, a doctor came in and sat down a small box of what I believed were what she planned to search us with. She looked over at us and back at the guard, "Still scaring the shit out of the young ones I see."

"Shut up Redheart, just get these two searched so they can get back to their cell."

Me and Tavi both jumped up at the name. We looked over at the doctor and recognized her immediately. She really was Nurse Redheart from back at camp. Maybe we could get this whole mess sorted out sooner than we thought. She walked over to us and greeted both of us with a smile. I smiled back, hoping she would recognize at least one of us and tell the guard we weren't meant to be here.

"So, who wants to be first?"

I looked over at Tavi who was obviously not wanting to be any part of this. Rolling my eyes, I got up from my seat, "I guess I may as well be first."

"Right this way," Redheart said, giving me a slight wink.

She lead me into a small room and locked the door behind us.

"So, I guess I just get undressed and let you get to searching?"

"There's no need for that, Vinyl."

"So you do recognize us."

"Of course. It's my job to know each and every camper at Camp Crystal Lake."

"So, do you think you can clear this whole thing up with the guards?"

"I can't do it alone though. You'll have to have Octavia call her parents so that they can come down here."

"How long do you think that could take?"

"About three more hours, that's when visiting hours start. But, you can have your phone calls anytime before that."

"So, we can finally get everything straightened out?"

"As long as you make sure Octavia knows to call her parents when you get your one phone call. Also, try to hope that there isn't any trouble out of anyone."

"Why?"

"The whole building gets put into lock-down for the whole day, and no one can get a phone call for the next three days."

"You've got to be kidding me. You mean to tell me that if something goes wrong today, we could be stuck here for another three?"

"That's how it works. Just hope for the best, that's all I can say. Now, let's get you out of here so I can talk to Octavia."

I left the room and sat back down on the bench, giving Tavi a look that said, It's all going to be alright...I hope. She just got even more horrified by it, so I looked away as she went into the room with Redheart.

"Alright, let's just get this over with," Tavi said as she began to pull her shirt up.

Redheart waved her hand in the air to stop her, "That won't be necessary, Octavia. I know you're not supposed to be here."

Tavi tucked her shirt back into her pants, "So, you can clear this whole thing up right?"

"Not by myself."

"What do you mean? Can't you just talk to the guards and tell them who we are?"

"I'm afraid it's not that simple."

"Then what do we have to do?"

"You need to make sure that you call your parents as soon as possible, in order to make sure that they come here and clear it all up."

"Why can't you do that?"

"I have a lot of things that I need to do over here, with all these inmates fighting a lot, I'm being ran ragged over here."

"So you mean to say that if I screw up, me and Vinyl aren't getting out of here?"

"At least not for today, you'll be able to try again tomorrow. That is unless this place gets put into..."

All of a sudden an alarm began to sound, and a robotic voice over the P.A system began shouting, "Lock-down! Lock-down!"

Redheart put her hands over her face, "Fuck!"

The guard came into the room and grabbed Tavi and another guard grabbed me, "Alright, time to get back to the cell."

They lead us out of the security checkpoint and began to lead us towards cell block E.

"What happened?" Tavi asked me, a look of fear spread across her face.

"I'm not entirely sure, but from what I heard on the guard's radio, someone got stabbed in the gut in the cafeteria."

"So what now?"

"We wait three days before we call back to camp."

"You've got to be kidding me. Nurse Redheart said that we can try again tomorrow."

"But did she tell you that we'll have to wait three days if the building gets put into lock-down?"

"I think she was about to say it before the alarm went off."

"Well, we just need to survive for three days. Then we can call your folks and ask them to come and get us."

We finally made it to cell block E and the guards lead us into a huge mass of cells, each one more horrifying than the last. One had some crazy chick banging her head against the wall, luckily for her it was padded. Another one held someone who looked like they'd been doing too much meth, she was sitting there talking to herself about going down some drain in the showers to escape. I looked over at Tavi who was shaking even more from the sight on the inside. Though it didn't phase me as much, it was starting to scare me as well. Eventually we reached the end of the cell block and the guards unlocked the cell and pushed us in.

"Have fun ladies, we'll be back in a couple of hours with your slop," one of the guards laughed as they all began walking away.

I sat down on the bed and buried my face in my hands. Tavi sat next to me and put her arm around me comfortingly, even though it wasn't really needed. I began to look around the cell and noticed a lot of scribbles on the wall. Some of them reading, One way out., others said, Accept the gospel! and other crazy things like that. I guessed that it was from one of the more insane inmates who used to have this cell, most likely the one who was talking to herself.

"So what now?" Tavi asked, snapping me back into reality.

"What?"

"I said, what now?"

"I guess I tell you that thing that I wanted to tell you."

She shuffled herself to the front side of the bed and crossed her legs on it, "I'm all ears."

I let out a long sigh and looked to the ground, "It all started ten years ago."

Broken Memories

"It all started ten years ago," I took a deep breath and looked away from Tavi. "I was eight years old. My mother was constantly drunk, high on pills and cocaine, and almost always pissed off about the smallest thing. I would always try to avoid her as best I could when she was like that. If I didn't, it usually meant getting hit over the head with a rolling pin, or whatever mom could get her hands on, until my head was lacerated. And even then, she wouldn't stop beating me. She would set my hands on the table and hit them until she heard the bones snap." I looked back at Tavi who was staring at me in horror, "I will go on ahead and tell you that this isn't my real hair either." I reached around to the back of my head and lifted the wig off, revealing the horrors that lie underneath. My skull was covered in scars, bumps, bruises, and burn marks.

Tavi reeled back in shock, "I-I...don't even know what to say."

I put my wig back on and forced a half ass smile, "Not a lot of people do when they see it for the first time."

"Where did all the burn marks come from?"

"My mother would put her cigarettes out on my head and it would sometimes catch my hair on fire. I was lucky I didn't burn as badly as I should have from it. But any way, after she broke my hands, she would drag me into her room and tie me to her bed. I couldn't even do anything to stop her because of the pain. I can still remember her sadistic smile as she cut my clothes off. She would always call me 'Mommy's little slut'. And this is where I usually end the story at, but since we have all this time on our hands, I'll tell you. But I do warn you that it's not a pretty picture once I paint it."

"I think I can handle it."

"Okay..." I took another deep breath, "Once she had my clothes completely cut off, she would open her drawer that had all kinds of sex toys in it. She would ask me, 'Do you want to play a game?' I tried to fight against it, but I didn't have a snowball's chance in hell of stopping her. She would take out a few of her toys and force herself onto me. She would proceed to rape me, sadistically laughing and strangling me until I either passed out from the pain of being raped or the lack of oxygen. When I woke up what I believed was hours after she finished raping me, I'd be sitting in the shower with ice cold water beating down on me. Mom would be sitting on the toilet next to the shower. 'You've got to stop passing out on me' she'd say and then she would get up and leave the bathroom, leaving me to drown in my pain and suffering. This went on for about three years, and I even tried to kill myself I don't know how many times. It was all that fucking bitches fault!" I punched the pillow on the bed and buried my face in my hands, crying loudly.

Tavi moved closer to me and wrapped her arms around me. She gave me a small kiss on my head to try to comfort me even more. I pushed her off and moved away from her, "I-I'm sorry."

"It's not you, it's just...you doing that makes me think of mom doing the same thing after her rage was over with."

"So...you're still spilling that same old shit to everyone. What a little cunt you grew up to be," said a calm voice in the cell in front of us.

I got up form the bed and limped over to the cell door. I looked into the other cell and there she was, the bitch who caused me so much hell.

"What's wrong, Vinyl. No 'I love you' or 'I'm sorry I lied to send you to jail'?" she turned her head and grinned at me with the same sadistic grin she gave me all those years ago. "It's great to see my baby girl after all these years. I'm still mad that you lied to everyone just to put in this awful place."

"You fucking deserve to be here after what you did to me! If I wasn't locked in here right now I'd be wringing your goddamn neck!"

"Now is that anyway to speak to the woman who gave you everything that you ever wanted growing up?"

"Please, all you ever did was treat me like shit! You never gave a damn about me!"

Tavi hopped up from the bed and tried to pull me away from the door, but I pushed her off of me again.

"Is that you're girl friend? She's really cute."

"Fuck you!" Tavi shouted.

"Feisty. I can see why you love her. By the look on your face I'm guessing you haven't even told her."

My rage began to burst out of me even more than it ever had, "I outta rip your fucking throat out and make you shit my fist."

Before I could do anything more, a security guard walked up and unlocked our cell, "You're free to go. Nurse Redheart explained everything after the building went into lock-down. We do apologize for bringing you in like that. We had a couple of inmates who look like both of you who escaped a few months ago and have been on the run since. We thought that you were them when we saw you and well...you know the rest."

Tavi and I walked out of our cell. I looked at my mom with a look that brought the phrase "If looks could kill" into play.

"Follow me and we will get in contact with your parents and let them know where you are."

We followed closely behind in silence, only interrupted by the guard occasionally telling an inmate to quiet down. He lead us to the main office of the cell block and sat us down. On the table was a small bag that had our stiff in it. He sat down in front of us and looked at us, "Again, I am terribly sorry that we brought you in without question. Now, just give me the number and I'll call your folks so that they can come and get you."

Tavi took her phone out of the bag and went through her contacts, "I'm glad you're going to making the call, my battery is almost dead. Let's see...the number is 555-0797."

The guard dialed the number and handed Tavi the phone, "Hello mom? It's Octavia. I'm calling you from the Crystal County Detention Center. Long story, but anyway, do you think that you could come here and pick up me and Vinyl? Uh-huh...Alright...No problem I'll ask them...Love you too mom, bye." She hung up the phone and looked at the guard, "Do you think you could give us a ride back to Camp Crystal Lake? My mom is a little busy taking care of my dad's wasp stings at the moment."

"No problem, it's the least I could do for what happened," he reached into the desk drawer and pulled out a set of keys. "Ready?"

We both nodded and followed him out to the parking lot and got into his squad car. It was a little too crammed in the back seat for me, but at least I don't have to limp all the way back to camp. I looked over at Tavi and she looked over at me. I felt a deep blush come across my face and I quickly looked away, making Tavi giggle. Maybe mom was right, maybe I am starting to take a liking to Tavi.

About ten minutes passed and we were back at Camp Crystal Lake. We thanked the guard for the ride back and he rolled off. Tavi put my arm over his shoulder and helped me to our cabin. I couldn't help but feel like we maybe she and I might soon become more than friends.

I looked at her and smiled, "Thanks for being a good friend Tavi, I don't know what I'd do without you."

She giggled, "You say that like I wouldn't help you to begin with."

I giggled back, "Either way, I'm still glad to know I have someone here I can rely on when I need that help."

"I'm always here to help you. I would never leave you hanging, not when you clearly have a crush on me."

I blushed even deeper than when we were in the car, "I...I do not."

"Then why's your face red?"

That made me blush impossibly deep, "It is not."

"Keep telling yourself that," she giggled again. "Vinyl, look, if you do have a crush on me, you don't have to hide it from me."

There wasn't really anything I could say to hide it at this point. She was right, I did love her, and I know she know that I do. So there was nothing that I could say to delay the inevitable, "Alright Tavi, you got me. I do have a crush on you. I've had it since the first night we met. You're the kind of girl that anyone would want to have. Smart, beautiful, talented, and extremely caring. Anyone would be lucky to have you."

Now she was the one blushing, "N-No one's ever said that about me before. A lot of people just think that I'm the kind of girl that people would just settle for once they had no other options."

"Well those people didn't know a good thing when saw it."

We make it to our cabin and Tavi helped me over to the bed. Now was the best time for me to make a move. I wrapped my arms around Tavi's shoulders and pulled her close to me, pressing our lips together. Tavi didn't fight it, she put her arms around me and we laid back on my bed.

I broke the kiss and looked into her eyes, "I'm glad I met you."

She smiled and put her head on my shoulder. I ran my fingers through her hair a couple of times and kissed her on the head. I let out a long yawn and Tavi looked at me, "You tired?"

"A little, I'm ready to take a nap for a little bit."

She kissed my cheek and cuddled closer to me. She put her head in between my chin and my shoulder and closed her eyes. I giggled lightly and closed my eyes as well, and we let sleep takes us into it's comforting hold.
