THIRTEEN. late night talking

AFTER SHOWERING, Shiloh began braiding her hair and preparing for bed as tomorrow would be one of the many changes in her life.

For now, she need to sleep, relax, and- but she wasn't going to. She slipped on a pair of raggedy shoes and Ricky's hoodie. She grabbed her box from the floor and as quietly as she could made her way outside and towards the benches.

She used the back door lights to light up EJ's love club folder. This would probably be the last time she'll ever see it.

Last day of camp, her possible last time with EJ Caswell. Every Love Club related thing was inside this folder and would be given to EJ in several hours.

He wasn't the only one graduating with a Love Club folder. They had Maddox, Jet, Emmy, Alex, and Val. But giving EJ his folder would be different.

She began writing her final summary of the boy and his growth on the back of his folder.

She'd been alone for the majority of it. She glanced up and saw Dylan walking towards his cabin. He seemed tired? Sad? Not so brooding and mean than what she remembered.

"Dylan?" She called.

He looked up, taking note of the girl and jogged towards her, "'Sup, SIM."

She kept her eyes locked with his and he sighed, taking a seat in front of her.

"Ever find out where your dad jump sea next?" She asked, continuing to write in EJ's folder.

"Yeah." He said, toying with his thumbs, "I've been meaning to talk to you about it."

"And you haven't because?"

"Because I've never seen you so stressed."

She sighed, putting her pen down and looked up at him, "You being here for the last half of camp was shocking, but you kept your word. I've notice your change. I'm proud."

He held a soft smiled as she continued, "But I came to camp to do what I do best and that's running the club. You and I might not see eye to eye all the time, but you can always talk to me about your dad. That never stopped."

Though Shiloh and Dylan had a very complicated relationship. His family was the one thing that she would put all their "beef" up for.

"Australia."

Shiloh softly smiled, "That's the furtherest you've been if I remember. I remember when you moved to Hawaii."

"I think that was only time in our relationship when we're actually solid." He chuckled, "Can't believe we made long distance work."

"Then you came back two months later and we broke up." She smiled, "Are you excited?"

"No."

"Why not?" She asked, "Seems fun."
