Rachel crazy this summer.”
    â€œYou know you miss us. You know you love us,” said Reb. She stood in front of Alex and pretended to box with her.
    Alex grinned. “I’m glad I don’t have to put up with your evilness.”
    â€œWhat’s evil about them?” I asked as casually as I could.
    â€œOh, Alex always called us that last summer. The Evil Twins! ” Reb said in a voice like someone possessed.
    â€œBecause you were. You were always together and you were both troublemakers. Always talking too loud. Always the last two out of bed in the mornings. Always laughing and never being serious about anything,” said Alex, smiling at them.
    â€œHey, it’s camp. Why should we be serious?” Reb said.
    So that was it? That was all there was to the “Evil Twins” nickname? Their counselor called them evil because they slept late and talked too much? I felt like a complete idiot. Why had I been so worried?
    â€œSo, are you two going to sign up for my Guard Start class?” asked Alex.
    Reb glanced at me. “Maybe we’ll all three sign up. What is it?”
    â€œIt’s the first step toward being a lifeguard. You guys are too young to take a lifeguard class, but you can take this class.”
    Jennifer winced. “Do we have to swim laps? You know I hate that.”
    â€œOf course you have to swim laps, Bird Legs. It’s a swimming class,” said Alex.
    â€œDon’t call me Bird Legs. You’re mean, Alex.” Jennifer frowned and looked down at her long, skinny legs.
    â€œYeah, don’t call my twin names, you Evil Counselor,” said Reb. “ Maybe we’ll take your class. But maybe we won’t.”
    Alex just laughed. It was obvious Reb was her favorite.
    After evening program we were all walking along, just talking and stuff, when I realized Melissa was right beside us. I hadn’t even known she was there.
    â€œGosh, there are so many stars out tonight,” she said. She tilted her head back and gazed up at the sky. I looked up too.
    â€œWow, there are. There’s a ton of them.” I’d actually never seen that many stars. The sky was so black in the mountains, and you could see the stars so much better because there weren’t many lights around.
    â€œThey’re bee-yoo-tee-ful,” said Reb.
    â€œYes, simply loverly,” agreed Jennifer.
    Now I had to say something funny. So I leaned over to Reb and sang softly, “Tinkle, tinkle little star, how I wonder what you are.” Reb snorted and poked me in the ribs. Jennifer started singing it too, but louder.
    Okay, it was a little mean. But I didn’t think Melissa heard the “tinkle, tinkle” part.
    It was crazy in the cabin before lights out, as usual. On Side B, Brittany screamed when a spider crawled down the wall. Tis picked up one of Jordan’s riding boots to kill it, but Jordan shouted that she didn’t want squashed spider guts all over her boots. Erin got it into the dustpan and threw it out the door. If there was ever a problem, Erin was always the one to take care of it.
    All of us on Side A had stopped to watch the drama. Molly said maybe the spider had laid eggs, and pretty soon a zillion little spiders would hatch out and infest our trunks. That made everyone scream again, especially Jordan, who now had something new to stress about.
    Then Rachel flashed the lights on and off as a warning. “Lights out in two minutes. Everybody in bed.” It was her serious counselor voice.
    â€œI just have one quick announcement to make,” Reb said, leaping up on her cot so everybody on Side B could see her too. “Please don’t anyone leave any wet swimsuits on my cot. I hate it when that happens.” She bounced down on her knees like you do on a trampoline.
    Jennifer and I both laughed. Everybody else looked confused.
    Rachel gave her this long look like she suspected Reb was up to something. “Good
