"I really don't want to go." Zach groaned.

"What? How could you not?" I asked. We were sitting on the couch in his living room. Tomorrow we would be going to Jurassic World! Together! I honestly couldn't wait to see the look on Kaitlin's face when I drove off with them.

"It's been seven years since I last saw my aunt and even though you're going I still have to hang out with Gray while you hang out with your so called super cool uncle." Zach replied.

"He is cool!" I defended.

"I guess considering you've been going since you were three." Zack mumbled. 

I smiled, "You'll have fun trust me."

"We'll see." Zack said rolling his eyes.

"You will and besides at least you'll be away from Kaitlin." I laughed.

"She's not that bad." He said, but he was always complaining about how clingy she was.

"Oh yeah sure." I said sarcastically. He rolled his eyes. It had been a week since the park and we had followed my advice. We acted like it didn't happen. He was a really good actor because he showed no sign, whatsoever, that anything happened between us. We acted like we were just friends. We acted like we weren't completely in love with each other. Not like him and Kaitlin.

"Anyways, while you hang out with your uncle, I have to babysit Gray." Zach said.

"You'll be fine." I said. 

He sighed, "There's just no arguing with you."

"Nope! You can try though, just be prepared to lose." I laughed. He smiled and that made me smile. "Well, we better get some sleep for tomorrow's plane ride." I said.

"Sure." He replied, but we never did that. We stayed up watching movies and fell asleep on the couch instead at three in the morning.

"Oh my God how long does it take?" I wondered aloud. His parents nodded in agreement as we watched Zach say goodbye to Kaitlin.

"I'll go try." Scott said and stepped out of the car. Zach looked annoyed, but walked back to the car while Kaitlin waved at him.

"Well it's about time." I said smiling, causing Gray to laugh. Zach rolled his eyes and put his headphones on.

"Anyways, to the airport!" I said happily. Scott began to drive, while Kaitlin continued waving until the car was out of sight, but before that happened, I couldn't help but notice the way she glared at me.

It was a challenging look that said, "Just try and take him away from me. Do it and see what happens.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"I wish we could go with you." Gray said sadly. I smiled and glanced at Zach, who was typing away to his girlfriend's non-stop texts.

"Don't worry I'll bring my uncle to meet you sooner than you think." I said before separating from the two boys. "Have fun!" I called over my shoulder. I stepped into the car that would take me to my uncle's trailer.

"Owen!" I said happily.

"There's my favorite niece!" He said. I ran into his outstretched arms.

"I'm your only niece." I giggled. He kissed the top of my head.

"I still missed you." He said.

"I missed you too." I said.

"Wanna see the girls?" He asked.

"Of course!" I said. Owen smiled and called for the pig to be released. Soon, the four raptors came running, but stood at attention when Owen began yelling at them.

"Hi Echo! Hi Charlie! Hi Delta! Hi Blue!" I called happily. They made noises at me.

"Ready?" Owen asked. I nodded and lifted my hands to the raptors.

"Alright, now this way." I said and began stepping to the other side on the platform. The raptors followed, snapping at each other. "Good!" I said and grabbed a piece of meat from the bucket.

"Charlie!" I called. She lifted her head. I smiled and threw the meat.

"Echo! Delta!" I said and threw them the small pieces of meat.

"Blue!" I called. She lifted her head. I threw the large white rat to her and she caught it in one swift motion.

"Good girls! Okay, now ready! Go!" I shouted and they took off.

"Haven't lost your touch I see." Owen said.

"I could never lose it." I said laughing.

"So how was the trip here?" He asked.

"It was fun except my best friend was in one of his moods." I said.

"Your still friends with that guy?" He asked.

"Yes!" I said.

"Aw, you're still in love with him?"

I blushed, "No."

"Oh you so are."

"Hey look you're best friend is here." I smirked and pointed at Vic. 

Owen groaned, "We'll talk about him later." I laughed as he walked to Vic. I walked off the platform to the gate and watched the raptors who watched me back.

"How have you girls been?" I asked. They continued to stare at me.

Suddenly someone screamed, "Pig loose!" Then one of the new guys was flipped into the raptors cage. I gasped as the raptors turned on him, then without really thinking, I opened the gate and ran inside.

"(Y/N)!" I heard Owen yell, but I stayed calm and tried to control the raptors.

"Blue!" I yelled. She stopped, but the others continued to growl at me.

"Echo don't do it!" I yelled. She stopped.

"Alright, good now, nah ah! No Delta!" I said. She stopped, but growled at me still. Then Blue snapped at her. In the corner of my eye I saw the newbie crawl out of the pen.

"Good girls, good. Okay Charlie." I said and smiled as I threw her a rat. I always kept some in my pockets when I was around them just in case.

"Delta, Echo." I said and threw them rats also. They caught them, happy now.

"Blue." I smiled. She walked up to me. I was surprised, since she favored Owen over me. Well I thought so anyways. I held my hand out and watched, stunned as she ate the rat from my hand. I raised my hand.

"Go!" I said bringing it down, and they ran away. I breathed out, frightened, yet excited, that I was able to control them.

"Damn." Owen said behind me. I smiled and turned around, walking out of the cage.

"That was easy." I said.

Owen laughed, "Your grandmother is going to kill me if she finds out about that." Now I laughed.
