More story. :)

"This just in." said the news lady, "There has been an animal attack up at Swanson's Campground. No campground officials were able to comment. Also we have no confirmation as to who was attacked either. But stay tuned to TV-news." They went back to the regularly scheduled show. Alyssa and her mom just looked at each other. They were afraid. "Oh wow." said Alyssa. "I know." said her mom, "Nothing ever happens in Treeville." "I wonder who the people were." Alyssa said. "I don't know. But most likely they were out of town. Although I guess people from Treeville go camping up at the campground." replied her mom. "I don't know. I'd go with the first part. That they were from out of town. Because Swanson's nice for out of towners, but people of Treeville want to really feel like they are camping. So they'd go out to the woods and camp there." said Alyssa. "Yea." agreed her mom. * * * The next day Alyssa went to the park and jogged around. Then swung on the big swing facing the river. "Hi." said a boy's voice. Alyssa looked up. It was 16 year old Nick Hunter. He was tall and athletic. He was also very muscular. Although he didn't play any sports for Treeville. He had wavy blond hair and blue eyes. "Hi." said Alyssa, confused. For Nick never talked to her before. Alyssa was popular and was a cheerleader and well Nick wasn't popular. And he hung out with people who others considered uncool. "How are you?" asked Nick. "I'm good." said Alyssa. "That's good. Are you enjoying your summer?" asked Nick. "I am." Alyssa replied, "How's your summer?" "It's good." Nick answered, "So I am having a party on Saturday, why don't you come?" "Um.." started Alyssa, "Why? I mean we never really talked before." "I know, but let the party be the beginning. I've always had a crush on you, but thought I wasn't good enough for you. You are so popular and well, let's face it..I'm not." answered Nick, "So what do you say? You can even bring Jayme along." "Well, I don't know. But if we do decide to come, what time?" asked Alyssa. "Around 6. My parents are going out of town on Friday, but rather have the party Saturday. This way, I know for sure they won't come back, if they forgot something." said Nick. "Well, we'll see." was all Alyssa said. "Ok." said Nick and then he headed off. Alyssa was still confused. Nick talked to her for the first time and said he liked her and has a crush on her. But she wasn't sure how she really felt about it. She heard from other people in school say that Nick could be a little dangerous. Still the idea of a party sounded good.
