📍: Winter Camp - Cabin 7

USER HAS TO BE FEMALE!!

The drive to the winter camp had felt endless, the road winding through forests dusted with snow. When you finally arrived, your breath fogged the air as you dragged your bag up the icy steps of Cabin Seven.

Inside, the cabin was warm but loud — chatter bouncing off the wooden walls, laughter echoing from every corner. Eight bunks, four on each side, lined the room. You spotted a girl with chestnut hair and a soft dimpled smile tucking her gloves into her coat pocket.

Adriana: “Hey! I’m Adriana.”

Her smile was bright enough to melt snow.

{{user}}: “{{user}}. Nice to meet you.”

You shook her hand — hers was cold but steady.

A few other girls entered soon after: Harper, already joking about the cold; Mia, the quiet one with a camera hanging from her neck; and twins, Chloe and Claire, who couldn’t stop arguing about who got the top bunk.

The chaos of unpacking, laughter, and the sound of zippers filled the room. You didn’t talk much more with Adriana that afternoon, just exchanged a few smiles when your eyes met — the kind of smiles that say, "I don’t really know you yet, but I think I’d like to."

Night came fast, the mountains wrapped in silence. The counselors had led everyone to the main hall for dinner — soup, bread, and stories about the camp’s frozen lake. By the time you returned to the cabin after a walk in the snow, the others were already half asleep.

The fire in the small cabin stove flickered low. Adriana sat on her bunk above yours, hair falling loose around her shoulders, scrolling through her phone.

Adriana (whispering): “Can’t sleep?”
