Every summer my dad's best friends go camping at one camping site every year together. Best times we every had together. This year I had a boyfriend that I wanted to bring with me. I had ask Mer if he wanted to come and he said he couldn't because he had to do something the Friday we were leaving for camping. I was upset. Then my dads best friend friend Joe's girlfriend offered to pick him up when she went to Portland and that we could get him. I ask my dad if that was okay.
My dad said,"Yes that's okay sweetie." Inside my head I was jumping up and down. I walked over to Joe's girlfriend Jana.
I said,"Jana my dad said it was okay." Now all I need to do is ask Mer. I would have to ask Mer when I got into a town.

The next day Jana came to get me so we could leave to Portland. Passing through a town my phone goes off. I think happily I can finally text Mer to ask him if he can come with me camping today. Checking my phone I go through my contacts to Mer's moms number and text hey is it okay if Mer can camp with me the rest of the weekend my dads friend is heading into to do something, I am with her and will be in town for a few hours. So can you please get back to me to know what you say please and thank you.

Few hours later...
Mer calls and says he can come and to meet him at Hollywood something.

Jana and I waited in the parking lot of joes shack or something. Till I saw him I was happy to see my boyfriend.

At the camp site, we get out and head to put his stuff in my tent but my dad said he can't stay in the tent with me and that he can stay with him in uncles trail with them. I'm thinking really I'm in a tent by myself and nobody else with me in the tent but understand why my dad did what he did.

Heading to the stream near our camp site with Mer and Kat was nice. Kat got to know Mer and Mer got to know Kat who is like my cousin. Getting down to the stream was hard because your going down hill and there are giant rocks at the bottom of the hill and water. But we all got down there safely. We started talking and I wanted to get in the water so I took off my shirt and in the middle of my back is a mark that I hate with all my heart but Mer was okay with it and didn't judge or think badly about the mark on my back. Kat says,"Why did you take your shirt off I thought you hated taking your shirt off because of your mark on your back?"

I say,"He knows about it and has seen it and doesn't care about it. He makes it seem like I don't have a mark on my back." Then I jump in the deep end of the water and swim in the water for a bit then get back up on the rock. We hear yelling saying it's time to eat. So we headed back to the camp site to eat and talk with the rest of the family friends and family.

The next day was leaving day because we had to get my sister back from my cousin Kristy. Heading home was okay. Leaving the camp site was hard because it's always fun to be there and spend time with people you have know all your life. On the way home we meet up with kristy to get my sister and get Mer home then us home.


Finally got to a place to meet kristy and that was sharis. We stop the truck and wait for kristy to pull up with Adri so we can head home. After an hour of waiting kristy finally shows up with ona so we can head home and get Mer home too. Adri gets in the truck and happily gets up front. Heading home was quiet. Falling asleep the rest of the way home.

Pulling up to our home was an amazing feeling after a long car ride. I have a love and hate relationship with long car rides. Getting up stairs we wait for Mers mom to get him. After an hour of waiting Mer moms comes and gets him. Going to bed after he leaves was bittersweet.
