--Jack's POV--
"Ridge Cove Camping Grounds," Zach reads off the sign as Jonah drives the car through the gates. basically, I got dragged here, Jack and Daniel are in the car with Jea and Kyle in front of us. Jonah is the oldest so he's driving this car, Zach s in the passenger seat because he called it and basically the whole 6 to 8-hour drive I've been sleeping on Corbyn, he's been my seatbelt.
"yay," sarcasm laced through my spoken words as I roll my eyes.
"you seem really excited," Corbyn says with a smile on his lips, his eyes looking down at me and his fingers gently combing through my dark hair - I'm laying with my head on his lap.
"I'm shaking with excitement," my sarcasm still very clear in my words, Corbyn simply chuckles at me.
"it can't be that bad," Corbyn says
"that's what he said,"I roll my eyes and leave my view on Jonah though the gap between the seat seeing as Corbyn sitting behind Zach.
"I promise you won't regret coming,"I couldn't tell if that was Corbyn on Mike saying that, I look back to see Corbyn.
"he said that too,"I state
"who is 'he'?" Corbyn asks
"someone I cared for, a lot," I reply, my eyes avoiding his
"does he have something t do with what happened at your house and back at the dorm this morning?" he asks
"yes," I reply, my eyes focused on my fingers pulling at the hem of my dark grey shirt.
"he's gone, isn't he?"
"yes."
the car suddenly jolts to a stop, my head -along with Corbyn's- snaps in Jonah's direction. "just almost ran into the others, didn't know they were stopping," he explains
"looks like we're at our spot," Zach observes, I sit up and scoot out of the car. I open the car door and step out, digging my hands into the back pockets of my light blue jeans. I look around to find the numbers of our two slots for our tents, 57 and 58. I look up further, 62 and 63, where we were last time.
"come on, let's get this thing set up!" Jea cheers with a clap of her hands. "are you sure these are the same tents? I don't remember them looking like this," she asks
"yes they are, we got them out of your shed," Kyle replies
"and you don't remember because you were sleeping while we set up the tent," I add
"huh? I was?" she furrows her eyebrows in confusion
"yes!" Kyle and I reply.
"we better set up the tents, we don't want to be left in the dark," Jonah suggest, we all agree and start unpacking the tents. we got our groups, me, Jea, Kyle and Corbyn in one tent and the other boys in the second.
it is extremely had to put up a tent, especially when tow people have no idea what they are doing and are very clumsy, like Jea and i. after Jea tripped over one of the poles and I tripped over her collapsing the tent, we just sat in the back of Kyle's ute. we can't make a tent if we are together, that is a fact. once the tents were up and secure, we unloaded the cars, put our personal stuff in our sends and sort out which group take what of our shared items, basically food and cooking stuff, also medical stuff. at least one of us is bound to get hurt on this trip.
I was sharing the end with Corbyn, we each had a blow up double sized mattress. and we forget an air compressor device. yep. the one thing we forgot we really need. Cobryn and I decided to go out and ask any other if we can borrow their thingy.
"why were you so against coming here?" Corbyn asks me as we walk on the edge of the road
"remember how to told you I got into college when I was 15?" I reply
"yes."
"the thing that stopped me from coming for another two years happened here, in Ridge Cove Camping Ground."
"what did happen to you?"
"I'd rather not talk about it,"I say trying to prevent the memories from coming into my mind.
"what about them?" he asks pointing at a young couple, they look to be in their early 20's.
"huh?" i furrow my eyebrows not understanding what he's saying
"what about them? should we ask them to borrow the air compressor?" he clarifies
"oh, that. yea, let's go ask them,"I reply, he takes my hand and pulls me over to the couple sitting on chairs. "um, excuse me, sorry to bother you but we were wondering if we could borrow... what's the thingy called?" my voice trailed off and I turned to Corbyn to ask.
"Sorry, we forgot to bring an air compressor and we were wondering if we could borrow yours?" Corbyn asks them.
"yea, sure," the blonde woman responds
"just bring it back before nightfall," the dark-haired man says passing the thingy to Corbyn.
"we will, thank you!" I say before leaving back to our camping site with Corbyn.
