We're a Team ◇ Jurassic World {2}

Chapter 03

Zach, Gray and I were at lunch again. We went to the same place as the other day. It was like reliving it all. Gray and I were waiting on Zach with drinks for us, an annoying group of guys came into the same booth- except jocks, and not Smiths.

I had a good feeling I was reliving this when Zach was hardcore glaring at one of those boys again.

"Earth to Zach." I snapped in front of his face. He blinked and focused back to reality.

"Sorry. It's just I know him, too. His name is Jacob, and we don't get along." Zach told me. I raised my eyebrows.

"That's an understatement." Gray commented. Sipping his lemonade. I gave him a look to elaborate. "Zach got 3 weeks of detention once for getting in a fight with him. He said something to make him mad and-"

"Shut up, Gray." Zach told his brother. Gray smirked, and before he knew it, he needed more to drink. This has happened before.

"I got you, Gray." I smiled at him. I noticed Zach watching me go, nervously. Maybe he feels the sense that this is a recreation of the other day.

When I got to the fountain machine, something different happened, and a tiny little boy ran into me, spilling water all down me. My shirt was soaked, and it was cold.

"Oh, sorry!" He called, still running. I sighed. I didn't care too much. It was only water. A hand gave me a stack of napkins.

"Kids are fun, right?" The person asked. I saw it was Jacob. He had a genuine smile.

"They're the best." I said seriously and with sarcasm. He laughed in response. "Thank you."

"Sure thing." He said. Yet, Jacob didn't leave. "I haven't seen you around. And you don't go to school with me, so..."

I laughed lightly. "I just moved here."

"Oh, really? From where?" He asked, seeming interested.

"Uh-" I stuttered not knowing how it would sound. "Isla Nublar."

Jacob blinked a minute, then gave me a questioning look. "Isn't that the island that has the dinosaur theme park?"

"Well, it did." I said. "There was an accident and it's being shut down." I said, relieved.

"And you lived there?" He asked, not believing me.

"I did. My brother trained Raptors." Laughing at his response. His friends came running over to us.

"Hey, dude- we're heading out. My mom needs us home pronto." The guy said. He looked similar to the other- telling me they're brothers. Then the ran out, without waiting for an answer.

"Well, my friends just abandoned me." Jacob laughed, a little bothered.

"You can join my friends and I." I offered, kind of hoping he would say no. "I think you know Zach." I said pointing back to the said boy. Really hoping that would drive him away.

"Oh yeah! That could be cool. Thanks." He smiled. I returned it, but cursing myself for being so polite.

Zach looked up at me when I came back. "What happened to you?" He laughed and stopped when he saw who followed me over. "Jacob."

"Zach." He smiled at Zach. I couldn't understand anything Gray had told me earlier now. "Mind if I join you?"

"Sure." Gray replied. Jacob sat down across from Zach, who probably wanting me dead now.

***

Well. Zach didn't kill Jacob. But he might of when he walked home with us. Don't get me wrong, the guy is nice- but I didn't want him around at all.
