Being bunk mates with Jesse was now incredibly awkward for me. Jesse was effortless in ignoring me and I couldn't say the same for myself.

I found myself always having to look at him for some reason and he knows I probably do. I just couldn't help but feel extremely bad for the way I have treated him so far.

These past few days in the camp have just been a little too crazy and it's been completely different than what I'm usually used to.

I'm surprised it's been way easier to talk to people here than talk to the people in high school, but at the same time, I'm really not.

I rapidly tensed up as Jesse's immaculately shirtless self dropped down from his bed, making me hide my face deeper under my blanket as he didn't bother looking back at me.

It was the next day and the bonfire was meant to be tomorrow. I didn't quite know how to feel about going with Logan but I do like him, as a friend.

As I shuffled around my bed, I couldn't help but feel something sharply scrape against my back.

It was a note.

I felt myself let out an unnerved exhale as I quickly grabbed it and read it.

"You will be one hell of a person to try and ruin. I'll see to it that I make sure that happens." -Lover Boy

What in the cringey Pretty Little Liars shit is this?

I looked around, not catching anyone stare at me suspiciously as I read the note.

Who the hell could this be? I reread the note over and over again as I felt a wave of unsettling emotions come over me.

This has to be a joke. It's probably just a prank.

All of a sudden, my eyes widened as the loud noise of what sounded like a horn emitted itself from outside.

The noise was so incredibly loud that I watched it catch everyone's attention from inside the cabin. I watched Benny begin to tiptoe towards me as the sun shoved itself from the window. "Micah, get up, you need to see this bullshit. It happens every year." His voice fell into a loud cackle as he gestured me to follow him.

I didn't bother throwing on a shirt as I followed him outside. "Wait see what?" I whispered sharply. "What was that noise?"

"You're about to find out." Benny tried to contain his ongoing laughter as we finally walked out the cabin.

And there he was, Posh, standing on a tall pedestal, his outfit luxuriously extra as ever. His sunglasses shimmered as 1 hand carried a mic and the other carried a piece of paper. Milan and Cadence stood beside him dressed in all black as Posh was the only one who was on a pedestal.

"Gather around everyone!" Posh commanded, his high pitched voice echoing into the microphone. "This is a very special day and I think it's important that everyone witnesses the greatness that's about to happen to me."

"Benny what is going on?" I asked quietly, using my hand to block the bright scorching sun away from my face as I followed Benny into the large group of people that surrounded Posh.

"Just listen, you're gonna die." Benny hushed, pulling me next to him as I got a clear view of Posh. "This is gonna show you how depressing Posh really is."

Posh's bright fluffy red fur coat engulfed his small body whole as he coughed, pulling his red sunglasses closer to his face. "As you all may know, the bonfire is tomorrow night." He turned towards Milan as he squeaked in excitement, Milan returning it with a squeak himself. "So I would like to take the time out of everyone's unimportant day, to give Dallas the chance to do his proposal that's he's been working on about asking me out to this year's bonfire!"

How absolutely pathetic. This can't be real.

All eyes immediately turned towards Dallas, including mine, everyone remaining dead silent as Dallas looked completely and utterly confused, making Posh speak again.

"You have been thinking about asking me out to the bonfire, right Dallas?" Posh's pompous voice slightly increased in volume as he said his name.

Dallas took a long time to respond as he looked around at everyone confused and humiliated. "Y-yea, sure, of course." His voice let out softly.

"Okay cute." Posh faked giggled as he looked down at his nails. "Now do it."

Benny almost exploded in laughter once again as he quickly held it back in with his hand. I finally whispered to him in disbelief. "This is insane.."

Dallas's hazel eyes shifted around the crowd as his face was incredibly reddened from embarrassment. "W-would you, Posh Montgome-" Posh quickly interrupted him with a raised finger.

"Milan do you hear that?" He turned towards Milan as he responded by shaking his head no. "Yea well Dallas, none of us can hear anything your saying. I mean all of us here already know your supes dumb but at least try not to act like you're not illiterate also."

My mouth dropped as my heart broke for Dallas. This was complete public humiliation and its so unnecessary. "I don't wanna watch this, it's too ridiculous." I turned towards Benny but he just remained quiet.

Dallas's deep voice slightly raised as he stared at the floor, people snickering to themselves around the circle. "Would you, Posh Montgomery, please come to the bonfire with me tomorrow?" He was audibly resistant as if he didn't even want to do this in the first place.

Posh clicked his mouth as he sighed to himself. "Hmm give me a sec to think." He quickly turned towards Milan. "Milan start filming when I stomp my feet." He spoke away from the mic but was still very audible.

Milan quickly pulled out his phone as Posh stomped his feet, a beep indicating that he was finally filming. Posh immediately became another person in the camera, his voice a lot more dramatic this time. "Oh, I don't know what to say!" He sniffed. "I'm too overwhelmed to even speak right now."

Posh fake cried into his dark red tinted sunglasses as people quietly whispered to themselves. "Dallas this was so unexpected, you know I hate attention! But I really am happy to hear that I'm helping your supes miserable life become slightly better because I exist. So yes, I will go to the bonfire with you tomorrow, as community service." He coughed, signaling Milan to cut filming, his voice going back to normal.

Dallas blinked a few times in subtle anguish as he remained silent, biting his lips as tears started to fall down his eyes.

Posh continued to speak to Milan as the circle began to diminish. "Post that on instagram and snapchat with a black and white filter. Make the caption say, so jealous Dallas always knows how to surprise my bff, #imsosingle." Posh proudly smiled as Milan tilted his head in slight hesitation.

"But that's gonna make me look like I'm jealous of you?" Milan softly spoke.

"Duh, that's the point. Just do it. You might even get like free 30 followers and a couple of hate comments." Posh proceeded to walk down the pedestal with Cadence helping him down, his heels slowly hitting the ground. "Trust me Milan, I'm doing this for you so you can get exposure and not always have to stay behind my shadow all the time." He cheekily smiled.

"Benny I can't watch this, this is actually too much." I began to walk back into the cabin as I kept staring at Dallas who just stood by himself, his fists tightly clenched as he cried from being so humiliated in front of everyone. "I don't know how anyone can just not say anything." I spoke under my breath.

Benny quietly laughed. "You didn't say anything either. You trying to go up against Posh?" He raised a brow at me, almost as if the thought excites him.

"I don't think I can, I'm not confrontational at all. But I mean someone else has to eventually do it right? Has it been like this like forever? Just letting someone like Posh treat everybody else like he's some main character of a show or something?" My eyes met Benny's as our voices lowered.

Benny crossed his arms as he deeply sighed. "To me not really only because I think he knows I would cuss him the fuck out and will probably hurt his feelings. To others though, most definitely."

I'm pretty sure the only reason why everyone has been just letting Posh get away with everything is because everyone seems to be afraid of him.

Personally, I didn't wanna get into it because I rather not be socially executed. It already happened at my school and I don't want it to happen here either. How the hell did Posh even gain this much power over everyone.

"Let's go get fro yo to celebrate!" Posh cheered towards Milan and Cadence, then carelessly walking pass Dallas without saying anything to him.

I couldn't help but let out a face of frustration as I quickly spoke to Benny. "That was honestly so depressing. It's already enough people like us get put down a lot, but us putting each other down?" I was speechless as I glanced at Dallas. "Just go back in without me, I can't leave him like that." I replied, my voice was audibly worried as Benny just nodded in reply.

I sighed as my hands gently touched against Dallas's broad back, catching his attention towards me. Dallas looked up as he took a deep breath, wiping his tears away from his reddened eyes. "Dallas you can't keep letting him treat you like this!" My voice grew louder as I glared at him. "You're not a peasant!"

Although I only knew Dallas from that time he spilled food on me, I couldn't possibly hold a grudge just because of that accident. My eyes widened as Dallas's strongly structured arms quickly went around me. "B-because I love him Micah." He struggled to talk as I felt him breathe against my neck.

"Why?" My voice was strongly confused. "He's clearly not treating you like he loves you back so why do you love him so much? You don't deserve to be treated like a piece of shit Dallas, nobody does."

Silence broke as we just stood there, his strong arms still wrapped around me in a hug as he helplessly stood with despondency.

He took deep breath as he quickly wiped his tears away, finally breaking the silence. "S-see you around Micah." He spoke low as he sniffed, his tone incredibly sullen.

I remained quiet, noticing him completely ignore my question as he walked away.

Dallas is so whipped.

"Benny you might as well do it." Logan sighed as he stretched out on his seat. "You have no time, the bonfire is tomorrow night."

"I really can't you guys." Benny shook his head no as he crinkled his face at us. "His ass is going to say no. You guys don't understand, he's so different from me!"

I remained quiet, catching myself unconsciously look at Jesse from my table.

Logan gently landed his hands onto Benny's, making him slightly flinch back as Logan's voice began to speak softly to him. "Sometimes in life, you can't always depend on other people to read your mind and do what you want them to do. Sometimes, you're the one that has to put in the work."

"You're right." Benny surrendered.

Benny took a moment to himself as Logan and I glanced at each other in confusion as to what Benny wanted to do. "You know what. Y'all right. That made me understand that I'm not the type of person willing to put in work, and to me, that's okay. Fuck the bonfire, I'm not going. I don't need a man." My mouth dropped at Benny as he crossed his arms at us.

"Damn." Logan stared at Benny completely awed. "Even with being best friends with you for the past 5 years, you still manage to surprise me."

The second our table became quiet, a deep and charmingly masculine voice quickly caught all of our attention, making us look at whom the voice belonged to.

"Aye, you new right?" The gorgeously looking boy asked me, Benny letting out a loud gasp to himself.

"M-me?" I wanted to make sure he was talking to me as I stuttered before him.

"Yea you. I'm Miles." He nodded as he returned his firm hand shake. "We don't know each other but you seem chill. You down to go the bonfire with me tomorrow night?" His smirk was widened enough for me to see his perfectly white teeth.

I watched Benny blink a couple of times in subtle despair as he laid his head against his hand.

Logan's cheeks were undeniably reddened as he stared at me in curiosity of my reply. "I-uh, well I'm already going with Logan." My eyes turned towards Logan as Miles seemed okay by it. "But you can bring Benny." I smiled, shocked to see Benny's facial expression not even change.

Miles tall figure stood behind Benny as he looked down at him, Benny's face looked completely unimpressed as Miles talked again. "Well I'm down to go with you if you are." Miles kept his smirk.

"No." Benny shook his head, not even bothering to look at him. "Now if you aren't aware, we're eating, so get the fuck away from our table." Logan and I immediately dropped our jaws to the ground.

"Damn, well my bad." Miles surrendered as he threw his arms up into the air, widening his eyes at Benny lashing out at him.

Our table was filled with a wave of awkwardness after that, only being filled with the sounds of Benny drinking out of his cup.

Logan anxiously chirped as he still looked shock at Benny's response at Miles. "Benny, what was that for?"

I couldn't help but speak out also since I was genuinely confused. "I was trying to help you, how come you just shut him o-" Benny's raised voice quickly interrupted me.

"Well it didn't work." He sassily replied. "You were his first choice in asking to the bonfire and you said no. You turning him to ask me just felt like a chore for him and that's complete bullshit to me. It's whatever, I'm not gonna be a second choice." He shrugged as he sounded completely irritated.

All I was trying to do was help..

I remained quiet with Logan, scared to annoy Benny even further.

"Maybe you're just on your man period." Logan casually laughed as Benny rolled his eyes at him.

Benny rapidly snapped back. "Or maybe I'm just fucking bothered at the fact that the popular type for every boy in this camp seems to be just super basic, shallow ken dolls with not a single ounce of uniqueness or personality!" And with that, he proceeded to walk away from the table with his fists tightly clenched.

Wow, that actually quite hurt me a lot..
