The second ride in the truck is mostly silent and quick. Soon they stand in front of a huge tree with a long elevator running up the side.

"Welcome to Camp Cretaceous." Dave says as the kids file out the truck

They exclaim in excitement, except Hecate, who looks around silently.

Brooklyn immediately takes out her phone, "Hey, Brooklanders, check this place out! Is this not the most amazing place you have ever seen?"

"If you think this is cool, you should see my dad's penthouse in the main park." Kenji says but is ignored.

"Yasmina! Hey, girl." Brooklynn says, pushing the camera in Yasminas face, "So, as an elite athlete, how pumped are you for camp?"

"Not a huge fan of being on camera" She covers her face with her hand and avoids the camera before grabbing her things and walking away, "Or people." Hecate watches with a frown, pulling yaz away. She takes her own hat off and sets it on Yasmina's head, blocking her face from view.

"This place is almost as big as my family's ranch back home." Sammy says

"That's because when we're up and running, the camp will house 500 kids and 150 staff. Listen up!" Roxie announces, "Okay, everyone, there's some ground rules to cover. Curfew's at 8:00 P.M., and lights out at 9:00 P.M. sharp." Many of the kids grumble in disagreement, "This is for your safety. We are in a dinosaur-filled jungle. You must always keep your distance, or you could be seriously hurt, if not worse. Cabins are up that-a-way." She says pointing upwards

"First one there gets top bunk!" Yasmina surprisingly shouts. She takes off in a sprint with Hecate close on her heels.

Hecates stops sprinting and takes off in a full-on run, moving past Yaz. She notices and begins running faster as well. The two get closer and stretch out their hands, trying to grab the bed. Hecate comes to a stop and groans as the track stars hand goes down first. She flops down on the bottom bunk and sighs loudly, gaining Yasmina's attention.

"Hey, you went up against me so don't feel too bad about losing" she says.

Hecate laughs, "Oh my! Is Ms. "I don't do people" talking to me!?" The girl huffs and turns around on her bed. Hecate stands off hers.

"You're my girlfriend, of course I'm talking to you." Yaz grumbles.

"Look, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it, Mina." Hecate says and moves a couple strands from yaz's face. She chuckles, "I love how shy you are, it's adorable." The track star covers her face in embarrassment making Hecate giggle.

"I'm not shy."  Yasmina says.

"Are you hiding in your shell again?" Hecate asks. She smiles softly, "I hope there's room for two in that shell 'cause you're stuck with me, Mina"

Hearing Hecate call yasmina that made her insides warm. She smiles widely, happy.

"Can I call you Mina too!?" Sammy yells, sneaking up on them. Hecate jumps and covers her chest, her heart beating hard.

"Fuck Sammy! Don't do that!" She exclaims, "and no. Mina is reserved for me."

"Wouldn't that be Yasmina's decision?" Sammy says, frowning.

"Well Yasmina is right here and she says you can't, Sammy." Yaz says making her frown deeper while Hecate smiles softly, "but you may call me Yaz if you want." She covers her face in slight embarrassment.

Hecate chuckles, thinking it's cute, before stopping. Does Yaz mind if the other campers know they're dating? Her eyes widen, maybe they can use this opportunity to sneak around like when they first started dating.
