A little while after...

"I'm being serious, Tiffany, you better call me," May warns, as Jamie wraps a towel around her. I laugh, as I hop into Travis's car, a grocery bag of s'more materials in hand, "I will!! Promise!!!"

"DON'T FORGET ABOUT ME!!!" Stormy calls out, wrapped in a towel, "YOU BETTER CALL ME TOO!!!"

"I WILL!"

After an hour or two of talking, and laughing with Travis and the others swimming in the lake, we all decided it was getting late. We made our way out of the woods, and to the cars at around 10:35.

After sitting with Travis, I've realized how much in common we have. Slowly, I'm starting to feel less nervous with him, and conversation is easygoing. He's really funny and all-around goofy as hell. I've enjoyed talking to him.

Anyway, we all were wondering where Christian had disappeared after he said he had forgotten his lighter. And as it turns out, the man fell asleep on the couch inside the cabin.

Of course, Joshua, Jamie, and Travis decided to draw on his face. I even drew a little something too. When he woke up, he was beyond pissed.

"DON'T FORGET ABOUT THE BOYS!!!" Jamie says, Christian sitting in his car, arms crossed and pouting. "YEAH!!" Joshua adds, waving.

"I won't!!" I laugh as I wave to all of them.

"Later, losers!!!" Travis grins, waving, pulling open up his door. He hops into the car with a light grunt and closes his door. Buckling up, I also close the car door.

Sticking the car keys into the ignition, Travis looks over at me, starting the car, "You ready, Tiny??" I nod, smiling up at him, "Yep!! Whenever you are!!!"

To that, he smiles, "Good."

Suddenly, the car jerks forward, Travis stomping on the gas. "AGH!!! TRAVIS!!!!" I scream, slamming into my seat hard. We zoom forward before Travis cuts the wheel left. We spin around everyone and their cars, Travis laughing maniacally, "HAHAHA!!!!!"

We drive around them in a circle, and soon peel out. As we drive off down the empty road ahead, I pant, eyes wide and heart racing.

Travis sighs happily, slowing the car down to the speed limit, "I've always wanted to do that."

"WHAT THE HELL!!" I yell, flabbergasted at what happened only minutes ago. Looking over at me, Travis chuckles, "What?! I promise I won't do it again, Tiny!!! I just had to do that one time, swear!!!!"

"You better!!! That scared the shit out of me!!!"

"At least not with you in the car..."

I shoot him a look and he immediately looks away, eyes on the road. I narrow my eyes at him, and he glances at me from his peripheral. I roll my eyes, smiling at him as he wiggles his brows at me.

We travel down the road, in silence for a little bit, but Travis suddenly lets out a small laugh, "Poor Christian. Bro woke up and didn't know where he was..."

I laugh at his comment, "He really didn't. Then he found out about the little surprise we left on his face."

"HA!! For real!! You know he was awake after that!! Nice touch adding the monocle and eyeliner!!! That really brought it together!!!"

"That was some of my best work drawing that monocle." I state proudly, "And that eyeliner? I can't even do my own that good!!! I was lowkey jealous..."
