Zane's Pov

~In the morning~

I at first see nothing, but then a light shines on my face. I squirm a bit but then awaken. I groan lightly and try to lift my head but it seems to be pinned to someone's shoulder. I don't even have to think about it to know who's. I shove my head back, and at the same time Travis wakes up, his eyelashes flutter like a butterfly's wing. A blush finds its way to my face as I start to panic. Travis looks up at me. I expect him to make fun of me or something. But instead, he just smiles.

"Morning..." He whispers. My heart starting to race and drum in my ears.

"U-Um.... M-morning...." I whisper back. Travis sits up and stretches, a small groan leaving his lips. I look down and blush, reaching for my mask to pull it higher up my face. But I can't feel it. I feel my face but not my mask. I look up at Travis, feeling my blood boil. "WHAT DID YOU DO WITH MY MASK!?" I whisper yell. Travis flinches back, rubbing the side of his neck.

"W-well I-I.... Um..." He stutters. I start to panic but Travis grabs both my arms while stating "I took it off okay," he whispers "I was concerned if you could breathe or not in the thing while you slept so.... I took it off..." His face carried his concern. I can't fight the blush that creeps itself onto my face.

'He was concerned... About me?' I blink a few times, my face heating. "O-oh..." I mumble "O-okay..." I look away from him, staring at the rising sun.

"Nice sunrise hu?" Travis states. I only smile at the view outside and nod

"Yeah..." I mumble "It's been a while since I've seen a sunrise or set." I hear a faint gasp and turn around. Travis's eyes seem to sparkle with a type of disbelief or amazement.

"W-what?" I say. Travis gets kicked out of his trance and smiles, grabbing my chin and turning me around to see the rising sun. Once my head is fully turned he grabs me from behind, laying my back on his stomach and my head on his chest. I flinch up blushing madly.

"W-what are you doing!?" I try to squirm up, and out of his grip. But Travis pushes me back down softly, holding me tight. I look up at him as he smiles softly. "I want you to enjoy a sunrise" My eyes leave him and I look at the rising sun. My heart races, my mind completely stuck at this moment. It feels just right. As though nothing can bother me, Travis, us. We stay like that for the rest of the trip, where Travis just holds me, and Aphmau and Kawaii~Chan go squealing.

~A few hours later~

The bus comes to a stop as we arrive at our destination. Once outside -with bags in hand- Students start to talk to other students, teachers talk to the camp director. I stand there awkwardly next to Aphmau as people pass us by. You see I have this thing where I just hate being in big crowds. The reason for this is because you never know if someone out in the crowd is gonna kill you!? But I mostly just don't like talking to people. I stand there, lightly playing with my fingers as I walk with Aphmau to get our Cabin number –Or however this cabin system works in this camp–. We wait in line when I see Travis in front of us.

"Hey, Travis!" Aphmau greets. Travis turns around and smiles.

"Hey Aphmau!?" he says with a chuckle. I feel my heart race and I've never been more grateful to have my mask on my face. And before you question, Travis gave me my mask back before we got here. I stand there behind Aphmau, leaving Travis's line of sight. I hear a faint chuckle again as Aphmau moves. "Hey Zane..." I look up from the ground and squeak softly.

"H-hey Travis..." Travis gives me a look of concern but then laughs lightly.

"So... sorry about your mask..." He says
