⍟ Strings {A Camp Cretaceous x Male Reader Story - Yasmina}

𝟻. 𝙷𝚊𝚙𝚙𝚢 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚝𝚑𝚍𝚊𝚢, 𝙴𝚍𝚍𝚒𝚎!

The 7 campers have been trekking through the jungle for what feels like hours now with still no sign of anyone else. The sun is beating down on them as they take long, slow steps.

Y/N stops to wait for Ben as he reapplies sanitizer every ten or so minutes.

Ben's scream and the sound of the a snapping twig alerts the other campers, who all spin around, prepared for the worst.

"Sorry," Ben pants, "I stepped on a twig."

Everyone allows their body to relax as they let out relieved sighs.

"Come on, man." Yasmina complains.

"You done gave me a heart attack!" Sammy exclaims dramatically.

"I should step on you." Kenji crosses his arms.

"It's whatever, guys." Y/N shakes his head.

"Yeah, we're all on edge." Darius agrees.

"And lost." Yasmina accuses sarcastically.

"Yeah, we've been out here for a while now." Sammy adds as they all turn to Darius.

"Darius, are we sure we're still headed towards the park?"

"Well, we'd be sure if I still had my phone." Brooklyn chimes in, arms crossed as she stares right at Sammy.

"Because it has a GPS, a compass app and is also A PHONE." She approaches the girl.

"Sammy didn't steal your phone!" Yasmina pushes Brooklyn away.

"No one stole your phone!" She cries as Brooklyn pushes her arm off.

"Can we please stop talking about the phone!"

"Yasmina is right. Sure, it would be great if we had the phone, but we don't. There's no point in arguing about it." Darius steps in the middle of them.

"My fellow campers!" Kenji calls out, "Chill! What we need here is someone who can make the hard call on what to do next."

Y/N nods, assuming Kenji is referring to Darius, or maybe Yasmina, or literally anyone else with half a brain.

"Since I'm obviously leadership material..." Kenji deducts, earing himself eyerolls all around.

"I'll do this! And my first decree as leader is for everyone to stop talking and just listen to Darius." He claps a hand onto the boys back.

"Huh?" Darius cocks his head.

Kenji pulls Darius away and starts whispering to him, leaving the others to awkwardly stare.

"We're not actually letting him be in charge, are we?" Y/N turns to the others, making sure he's not going crazy.

"No, no." Yasmina shakes her head and laughs.

"Definitely not." Sammy agrees.

Brooklyn and Ben just chuckle.

"So, which way, Darius?" Kenji pops back up and struts over to the others, leaving Darius at the front of the group.

Everyone looks at the younger boy expectantly.

Darius turns away in thought.

"Please, you're just trying to cover up the fact that you're lost too, Mr. VIP." Brooklyn pokes at Kenji.

"None of us know where we are!"

"I know where we are! We're by the Carnotarus paddock!" Darius shouts enthusiastically.
