Blood (Ruby Rose Fanfic) (Recreated)

Chapter 7 I Camping

It was a week later. It was a Saturday.

It was 10 AM, and I was in my room packing some of my stuff into a suitcase.

Jeromy and I were going camping, just the 2 of us, for the weekend.

And I didn't tell Dad and Step Monster about this, or otherwise, they'll kill me. I told them I'd stay at Jeromy's for the weekend.

Which is partially true.

It was 5 minutes later.

I finished packing.

I grabbed the phone on my bed and texted Jeromy.

Me: I'm ready

Jeromy, I'm on my way.

I turned my phone off and then put it in my pocket. I grabbed my suitcase and rolled it out of my room and into the hallway. I stood in front of the front door, waiting for Jeromy to arrive.

I didn't want to wait in the lounge room because Dad and Step Monster were watching TV.

It was 3 minutes later.

There was a knock on the door.

I opened it.

It was Jeromy.

He had a big smile on his face.

I smiled.

"Let's go." He said, smiling.

We hopped in his car, and he started driving.

It was 2 hours later.

We arrived at the campsite.

The sun was high above us.

We started unpacking, setting up the tents, and lighting the campfire.

It was 30 minutes later.

We were done.

We were sitting on logs while toasting marshmallows on the fire via sticks.

My marshmallow caught on fire, but I didn't care. I like them burned. It tastes better.

I blew out the fire on my marshmallow and took a bite.

I remember my dad, and I used to go camping when I was young.

I smiled at those memories until they quickly faded after remembering the Step Monster.

We were much happier back then. Before Step Monster joined our lives.

It was 6 hours later.

Jeromy and I just finished dinner.

I checked the time on my phone.

It was 10 PM.

"I'm tired. I'm going to go to my tent and rest." I said.

He said ok, and I got up. I walked into my tent and got changed into my red PJs. I went into the sleeping bag. All of a sudden, Ruby appeared. She wrapped me in her arms and gently pulled me closer to her cold body. I wrapped my arm around her.

I didn't know why at 1st when I realised that she must've read my thoughts and snuggled me to calm me down. It's working.

I smiled.

"You're right." She replied.
