If Looks Could Kill

Chapter One

One day there was a group of friends going on a camping trip. Sidney Brooke, Terri Lupo, Lynn Kalbers, Sam Ica, Tina Latod, Anna Grint, Kat Cina, Sophia Chen, and Maddie Smith were all really good friends, so they decided to take a camping trip, because it was suggested by Kat.
"Dude, Kat, this was the best idea ever!" Anna said. Kat smiled at her and nodded. Sam looked around, and Sidney squealed in excitement as they pulled into the camp grounds.
"Hey, Terri look at that weird looking tree!" Sam said. Terri rolled his eyes and continued walking towards the main campus.
"Sidney, how'd you convince your mom to let you come? She's like, for real strict!" Anna said. Sidney looked somewhat guilty.
"I didn't really tell her it was a camping trip. I told her we were going to Maddie's house." Sidney replied. Everyone gasped. What was she thinking?
"Oh please, like none of you haven't ever done it before!" Sophia said. They all looked at her and shook their heads. Sophia looked at them in disbelief. "Are you guys serious?"
"Not everybody is a lying, deceitful, little brat!" Anna said. Sophia looked at her with a death look.
If looks could kill...
"Sam, chill!" Sam was looking at a blonde girl walking the opposite way. Sidney elbowed him in his gut. He groaned and fell over. Sidney started laughing at him, and the blonde girl looked at him like he was weird.
"That's right, keep walkin'!" Sidney growled.
"C'mon, you chill out! Just 'cause we're dating doesn't mean I can't look at other girls." Sam said.
Maddie popped up in between them.
"Actually, yes, yes it does." She said. Anna, Lynn, Terri, Kat, and Sophia laughed.
Sam gave Maddie a mean look. Sidney and Maddie high-fived.
Everybody signed into the campus center, and ventured out into the woods. They were pretty far into the woods when Sophia stopped them.
"Guys, we've been walking for a while, why don't we set up camp here?" She asked. Everybody decided it was unanimous and they all pitched their tents.
The sun was still high in the air, but they made a pit for fire. They broke some of the sticks off of the trees and Sophia took a pack of matches out of her backpack.
"We should probably start a fire now so we can gather stuff for it to burn more." Sophia told them. Everybody looked at her doubtfully but then agreed.
"She's gonna waste all of our matches!” said Tina.
“I know what does she think she’s doing!?” exclaimed Terri in agreement.
“How about half of us get all of our stuff while the other half gets things for the fire?” suggested Maddie.
“Okay!” Everyone agreed.
“Ouch!” Kat screeched as she tripped into a picker bush.
“At least you’re not being eaten alive by mosquitoes!” Terri growled, swatting at the mosquitoes. Anna chuckled.
Terri looked at her, and then turned away.
“Hey, guys, the sun’s going down, we should probably start heading back to camp.” Sophia said.
“I don’t know, maybe we should get a few more things for the fire.” Anna opposed. Sophia glared at her again.
“Sophia, can I talk to you?” Anna asked. Sophia nodded and followed Anna over to the side.
“Yes?” Sophia asked.
“What in God’s green earth is your problem with me?” Anna hissed quietly.
“What do you mean?” Sophia asked sweetly.
“Don’t play that sweet girl act with me, ‘cause I know the entire script. So don’t say ‘what do you mean’ because you know exactly what I mean!” Anna growled.
“Okay, but you know why!” Sophia insisted.
“I have no idea what you’re talking about! Just because you hate me I’m supposedly supposed to know why?” Anna retorted.
“Let’s just say that if you stay out of my way, we won’t have any issues, ‘kay hun?” Sophia smiled, turned around, and strutted away from Anna.
Terri walked up to Anna.
Hey, is everything alright with you and Sophia?” He asked, seeming concerned.
“Yeah, she’s just not answering my questions.” Anna replied, frustrated.
“Ugh, I know exactly what this is about!” Terri growled, stalking off over to Sophia.
“Okay Sophia, look, just because I like Anna doesn’t mean you need to hate her. There are plenty of other guys in the world. I mean every day I pray that Anna will like me back, but I know it won’t happen.”
“I don’t know what you mean to say!” Sophia said playing it sweet again.
"Whatever, Sophia, just leave Anna alone." Terri walked away and Sophia frowned.
