Jurassic World (Zach Mitchell fanfic)

Chapter 9

Addison POV:

"What do you have in mind?" I ask Zach.

"We get off this truck and explore the valley by ourselves. It will be way more fun."

"Are you crazy?" I immediately reply without even thinking about it.

On second thought, his idea doesn't sound that bad- it actually seems pretty fun. After all, life is about taking risks. In the end, we only regret the chances we didn't take. 

"You know what, let's do it." I finally declare as a smile creeps on his face.

Making sure no one sees us, we impatiently wait for the right moment to dodge before hopping out of the vehicle and abruptly landing on the trampled grass. Clumsy as I am, I trip over myself and roll backwards, performing a somersault like an inexperienced gymnast- my clothes are now all dirty and my knee hurts from collapsing but it was worth the try; we can henceforth observe the Gallimimus closer than ever as they run around us. They might not be the prettiest but being able to stand this close to a dinosaur satisfies me enough already.

"Nobody noticed us!" Zach exclaims, giving me a high five. 

Unsure of where to go, we stroll through the herd of dinosaurs, trying not to get hit by one of them while they scramble to be in the lead of the troop. 

"They are uglier closer." Zach comments, staring blankly at the Gallimimus.

"If you keep insulting them, they will get offended and eat you." I say sarcastically.

"Funny." he scoffs

"Yeah, I am hilarious."

"Is that another good joke of yours?" he chuckles

"No, it's actually a fact." I smile snidely as he returns back the gesture.

"Anyways, let's find a spot to sit." he acclaims

"You can't even stay up? Wow, you're such a lazy ass." I giggle.

"Yep, a hot lazy ass." he smirks

I playfully roll my eyes and search for a place to rest where no dinosaur could possibly collide into us. 

"Here." he says, dragging me towards a small hill.

We lay down our backs on the fresh grass, facing the light blue sky in which the blindingly sun excessively radiates.

"This looks like a tacos." Zach mentions, pointing out to a cloud.

"A tacos? Seriously? I think you're just hungry and your mind makes you see things like that." I laugh.

"Yeah, probably. I'm craving for tacos right now." he chuckles

-

"We've been sitting here for a while. We should go somewhere else." I declare, suddenly realizing we spent over a hour just laying on the grass and talking.

"Alright but I need help to get up. My legs are numb." he sighs, tending his hand to me.

I grab it as he carries all his weight on me but I purposely let it go, causing him to dramatically fall on the ground. 

"Thank you so much." he grumbles, getting up by himself.

"You're welcome." I reply back with a sarcastic grin.

We walk around for what seems like an eternity till we end up finding the exit of the valley. After our 'excursion' in the Gallimimus's territory, we head to the Gyrosphere attraction where we embark into a glass-encased engine in the shape of a globe. As we buckle up our seat-belts, the door of the sphere closes before leading us to a majestic place; a field filled of Apatosaurus, Stegosaurus, Triceratops and many more herbivores. Whereas the legendary creatures roam in their habitat, we watch them with stupor, admiring each details they hold- from long necks to spikes and horns, they all possess unique features.
