Camp Story (1/?)
Late June, early morning.
The forecast called for hot sun and building humidity, but at 6:30 in the morning it was still cool and dim and Bette and her hangover were grateful for that fact. She rolled down the passenger side window and let the chilly air bathe her cheeks.
“Bette, please don’t open the window that wide. Its very cool out this morning.”
“Sorry, Daddy.” Bette sat up straighter and rolled the window up most of the way. She tried to ignore her pounding headache, and gave her dad a smile that was more like a grimace.
Melvin kept his eyes on the empty road ahead. “You were out very late last night.”
Bette mounted a cautious defense. “Well, I won’t be home until August. And then I’ll be leaving for Yale the week after I get back, so I wanted to say goodbye…”
“I didn’t mean to imply you had done anything wrong. I was merely making an observation.”
Bette stayed silent.
Melvin pulled the sedan into the empty school parking lot, and put the car in park. Finally, he turned to look at his daughter.
“I trust you Bette. You’re a highly intelligent young woman. I’m very proud to have a daughter like you.“
Bette’s mouth felt dusty. She licked her lips. “You know Daddy, Kit’s doing really well with her band lately.”
Melvin gave a noncommittal nod.
“They’re going to be playing some dates here this summer. Maybe you two could have dinner. While I’m away. It might be nice, for you and Kit to have a chance to talk.”
“If your sister wishes to call and extend an invitation, she is entitled to do so. But of course, I can’t say whether I’ll be available when she does decide to contact me.”
Bette exhaled through her nostrils and pursed her lips together.
“You remind me so much of your mother sometimes.” Melvin said, gazing down at his daughter. “Especially when you’re frustrated with me.”
Bette gave her father a small, grudging grin.
“I’m sure you’ll do an excellent job with your responsibilities this summer. I…” he hesitated. “…I’ll miss you.”
Bette smiled, a genuine smile this time. “I’ll miss you too Daddy.”

I’m already hooked, rey. I never formally went to summer camp either, so I’m happy to vicariously relive the experience I never had. It’ll be just as fun, and cheaper, too. ;)) Glad to see you back. Thanks
Great start – can’t wait for more :)
hi girl, this can be amasing! keep it going! you know, it kind of reminds me of some television series ‘braceface’.. hihi its for children and is an animation or whatever you call it. and it reminds me also of this story on the other site ‘snowflakes in your hair’ by norah. please make your own version and let us see some really good tibette love :) PPS!!
ooo – interesting start!
Watch some episodes of “Salute Your Shorts” if you can find them. I loved that show when I was a kid and it was about a group of kids at summer camp. Man I figured Shane was going to be a counselor though that would probably be a BAD idea. LOL! “Little Darlins” is a good movie to check into as well. Keep up the good work!
This looks like fun. How will Shane get to camp?
Yay, I love stories like this. Can’t wait to see where it goes next. pps! :)
I can tell this is going to be good. I’ve never been to camp either and I watched Parent Trap alot, thats about as close as I got. lol. This sounds like it’s going to be interesting so please continue. ;)
I have been missing this story! I’m so glad you are back – hopefully for a few more chapters! So Tina is a lesbian according to Dana although she is dating Henry…this should be interesting! Can’t wait for more…
