Saving Grace

Chapter 11

Grace's POV

When I woke up I wasn't in my bed in LA and I was feeling movement. Then I remembered mom saw dad out and about. I got down from my bed and went out to the kitchen area. "Look who is finally up." Matt said. "Morning. Who is driving?" I gave Matt a hug. "Jc is but I'm pretty sure he would want you to eat breakfast."

I sat down at the table and Matt put some breakfast in front of me. I ate as much as I can for being in a moving vehicle. I went up front and Jc was driving. I gave him a kiss on his cheek and I wrapped my arms around him. "Good morning. How much longer?"

Jc looked at the GPS, "about another two hours. We're going to be stopping soon to switch drivers." I sat down next to Jc and he grabbed my hand. He got off at an exit ramp and headed towards a rest station. "I can't wait until we can get some rest."

"Says the one who has been sleeping for half the day." I looked at Jc, "what I meant was, I get to rest with you." He parked the RV and turned it off. "Ricky! It's your turn to drive!"

Jc got up and lead me back to our bunk. We both climbed into the bed. "So what are we doing back here?" I got under the covers. "I wanted to just lay here with you." He moved a piece hair out of my face.

"So I was thinking when we get back to LA, you officially move into my room. Your always sleeping in there anyways." He thought about it for a little bit, "sounds good to me."

I cuddled into Jc and I felt the RV starting to move. "I can't wait till we get back to LA and things being back to normal. At least somewhat normal." We just laid there and cuddled with a little bit of making out.

I must've fell asleep because next thing I new I was being woken up by Connor. "Hey Grace. We're here." I got up from my bed for the second time today. I picked out some clothes and went into the bathroom.

I got dressed in my outfit (in media bar) and I looped the belt Sam gave me. When I walked out no one was on the RV. I headed out the door and the sight was beautiful.

The guys were busy setting up the grill and other stuff. "Do you guys need help?" I made sure the door was unlocked before I went down the steps. "Yeah. You and Sam are going to get some firewood."

We went out to the woods and started to gather wood. Sam slowly drifted away from me and I continued to gather twigs. A twig snapped causing me to look up. "Sam!" I turned around and ran back to camp with the fire wood in my arms.

When I got back I was out of breath and Sam was following me. "Grace it's ok. It was probably an animal of some kind." Sam said. We stacked up the fire wood and I went back inside.

I walked all the way to the back and collapsed on a couch. "Are you ok?" Jc asked as he sat down next to me. "I'm fine just a little out of breath." Jc got up, "come on we're going to be cooking some hot dogs over the fire." He pulled me off the couch and we headed out.

The sun was going down and the fire was going. The guys sat up lawn chairs for everyone and a table full of snacks and pop. "You hungry?" Jc asked me. I nodded my head.

We went over to the table and Jc put a hot dog on a stick. He got himself one and we headed over to the fire. Everyone was cooking their own food.

"Sam your going to burn your hot dog." I said when Sam lowered it into the fire. When he pulled it out it was on fire. "Blow it out!" He blowed it out and it was burnt. "I told you so!"

When I pulled my hot dog out from the flame it was nicely golden and barely burnt. "And that gentleman is how you cook a hot dog." I said after I notice everyone had a burnt hot dog.

We put the hot dogs in the buns and topped it with some condiments. We were eating and the sun was still going down. It was nearly dark when we were finally done eating our hot dogs.

"Who wants some s'mores?" Kian asked. "I do!" Once again I was the only one who didn't lose their marsh mellow or burn it.

They started to pack up stuff so no animals can get to it. "Hey lets tell stories!" I suggested when they were finishing up. "Alright who first?" Connor asked taking a spot next to Matt.

"I'll go." Kian said. "Many years ago, a bunch of teenagers were camping in these very woods. One night while sleeping in their tents and they heard a rustling noise outside. This happened three other time that same night. One of the girls in the tent decided to speak up. 'Boys stop doing that. It isn't funny.' 'That wasn't us.' the boys replied. They all exited the tent to see what was outside."

I started to get scared so I cuddled into Jc. Kian continued, "It was a ten foot axe murder! And to this day you can here their scream." By this time I was half way to the door of the RV. "Nope! I'm taking the nope train to nopevile in nopesilvaina on the planet nope in the nopeverse."

I got inside and ran back to my bunk. I immediately got under the covers. "Nope, I'm never going outside again." I felt someone get into my bunk so I screamed.

"Damn it Grace! There is no need to scream." I pulled the blankets from over my head and Jc was sitting there. "I'm so sorry Jc. The story Kian told us kinda got me spooked." "Yeah your telling me."

Jc got under the covers with me. "Jc can I get out to change my clothes and can we watch a movie in the back?" "Ugh... fine Grace." He got out and I followed him. I gave him a kiss on the cheek and went into the bathroom.

I changed into some pajamas and I brushed my teeth. When I exited from the bathroom I headed to the back of the RV.

"So what movie do you want to watch?" Jc asked me when I sat down next to him. "How about Safe Haven?" He played the movie.

Jc wrapped his arms around me and pulled a blanket over our laps. Today was a good day. I can't wait for the next few days out here in the woods.
