《Seeing Double》2

"You ready for your first meal with the team?" Mal asks.
We're roommates this camp.
"Sure...is it that bad?" I ask.
"Not really."
Mal and I make our way to where the food is then make our plates. Mal goes and sits with her friends and I go sit alone since I don't know anyone that well. Sooner or later Kelley comes and sits next to me and we eat in silence. Once everyone is done eating Jill addresses the team.
"Alright so welcome to Camp...."
I hate speeches.
"Now for newbie initiation." Kling says.
Fuck sake. Not this again.
"When did we start this?" Mal asks.
"Shh." Pinoe says.
"What am I doing?" I whisper to Kelley.
"Singing." Kelley says with a smirk.
"Oh joy."
Kelley and I can both sing pretty well, but Kelley always sings awful just so people don't ask her to sing all the time. I, on the other hand, don't care if people hear me sing. I just won't sing on command. I'm not a fucking puppet.
"Astrid the floor is yours." Pinoe says and sits down
I get out of my seat and walk to the front of the room and stand there
"Alright I just have to sing?" I ask.
"Yeah?" Ash says.
"Good."
You'd be surprised what the girls do at Wolfsburg for their initiation.
"I'll be singing She's On My Mind by JP Cooper...the acoustic version"
I've seen a lot of pretty faces
Ain't nobody like you
And I've never had a love like
The one we knew
Tell me why I had to play the clown
Always messing around
Can't stop thinking how I let you down, down, down
She's on my mind, she's on my mind

She's on my mind, she's on my mind
I can't sleep at night
'Cause she ain't by my side
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
I can't sleep at night
'Cause she ain't by my side
I can't sleep at night
'Cause she ain't by my side
My friends say that she's a keeper
But I let her go
Didn't know how much I need her
'Til I was on my own
I've been drinking but the truth won't drown
No, the truth won't drown
Bad medicine won't go down, down, down
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
I can't sleep at night
'Cause she ain't by my side
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
I can't sleep at night
'Cause she ain't by my side
Ooh, the cover's over
If I could dream I'd hold you
Can't stop thinking, am I even
On your mind
Now, the nights are colder
Miss you on my shoulder
Miss you there on my cheek
Every night
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
I can't sleep at night
'Cause she ain't by my side
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
I can't sleep at night
'Cause she ain't by my side
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
I can't sleep at night
'Cause she ain't by my side
Ooh, the cover's over
Miss you on my shoulder
Miss you there on my cheek
Every night
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
She's on my mind, she's on my mind

"Is there anything you can't do?" Kling asks.
"There is, but you'll have to find that out for yourself." I say then sit down
After the meal and meeting is over Kelley and I go back to her room and once there Kelley takes out her phone.
"Mom you'll never guess who I ran into today." Kelley says while laying on the bed in her room.
This is going to be a fun conversation.
"Who Kelley?" Mom says.
I jump on the bed and Kelley cuddles up to me.
"Hey mom." I say and smile at the phone
"DAN" Mom yells and stares at me.
All the sudden dad comes running into view.
"Hey Dan" I say.
"A-Astrid?" Dad says.
"I'm here too ya know." Kelley says.
"We know Kelley." Mom says. "We just haven't seen Astrid in...
"Eleven years....yeah....sorry."
"Hey Mom who's on the...Astrid." Erin says and stares at me as Jerry comes up next to her.
"Hi everyone." I say.
"Y-You're alive?" Erin says then is swiftly smacked on the arm by Mom.
"It's a valid question Mom...but yes Erin I'm alive."
"WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?" Jerry says.
"First off watch your fucking tone before I leave again...and you know I'll do it Jerry. Second all of you knew exactly where I was and none of you cared to visit. Third Mom did you get the mail today?"
"Uh yeah why?" Mom says.
"Did you get a large envelope?"
"Yeah."
"Look inside it." I say then mom does.
"Plane ticket's and game tickets?"
"Yep we'll see you 4 at the game." I say then hang up
"I knew you'd do that...Come on we have team bonding." Kelley says.
