Chapter One Camp
It will be great, Matt!
His dad s words rang in his ears. Matt stood in his cabin doorway and watched the car drive away.
I loved this camp when I was a kid, his father had told him. You will too. Just wait and see.
Matt kept his back turned to the other kids. He was not going to let them see him cry! But after the car drove out of sight, he felt a big, painful lump right where his heart should be. He d never been good at outdoors stuff. He wasn t sure about this at all.
In the cabin it sounded like a whole army of boys were fighting over the bunks they wanted. A counselor s voice rang out.
Okay, guys, enough! Tim, you re a big guy. You take a bottom bunk. Don t want you crashing down on the kid beneath you. Rupal, you take the top one. Joey, the other top one.
The three boys settled down and began to make up their bunks.
And you...Matt!
Matt wiped at his eyes and turned around.
Matt, you get the bottom one over there under Joey.
There were six boys in the cabin. The two others had taken the last bunks. One boy was already on the top one, the other on the bottom. Matt was surprised to see that they were twins.
Sandy, Tommy, I can t tell you two apart, the counselor said. Looks like you re all set up. Great!
Matt dumped his bedroll on his bunk. He was glad he had been given a corner one. He crawled in to spread out his sleeping bag, and it was like a cozy, dark cave.
