Sorry it's a little late! I've been dealing with health stuff and haven't really had much opportunity to write. Anyways this chapter mainly covers Kaedryn's journey to camp in maine.
Kae flew straight up in bed, eyes open wide from the nightmare that had plagued her since that night last month. She rolled her eyes and sighed in frustration as she saw the time on the blinking alarm clock 3:00am. It was then she realized there was another body in the bed with her. As she became aware of her surroundings she realized this was not her room, not her bed. Drew was laying next to her, breathing softly, he hadn't even stirred at her sudden awakening. She attempted to quietly roll out of his bed but the mattress creaked and Drew jerked and his eyes opened wide. "Where are you going?" he asked. "Well, I'm not going home until morning at least. Do you want to go with me somewhere?" She smirked at him and he got the idea. "Yeah of course." He smirked back. They dressed slowly and he grabbed her waist and spun her to face him. He whispered "Lets make our last night count." He leaned in and they kissed deeply. The kiss seemed to last forever, speeding up and slowing down. Eventually Kaedryn fell into this dreamlike state between her and reality. The world disappeared and there was only heat and the stroke of Drews mouth across hers. He withdrew first, saying "Where is it you wanted to go." But before she could answer he kissed her again.
She broke apart and said "It's a surprise." Winking and while he was caught off guard flipped them over. "But you'll only find out if you can catch me first." She flipped off the bed gracefully and sprinted out of the door and down the stairs. However at the bottom he caught her around the waist and put Kae over his shoulder. She squealed quietly and hit his back. "Put me down!" She whispered "I will." He whispered back but he didn't, at least not until they had reached his car, hidden a block away from her home in an isolated field.
"I suppose you think you're very funny." She said, raising an eyebrow. "You love me." She rolled her eyes. "Okay I'll tell you where we're going."
(Driving break)
Kaedryn sighed contentedly, lying in Drew's arms. Nothing was as good as this she thought."We could run away you know." He said "You know I want to marry you. Your almost 18, we could do it." Kae closed her eyes "You know I would, but your family is important to you. We couldn't do that to them." He sighed "True but I love you." "I love you too."
Time passed where they didn't talk much. Just stared at the sky and cuddled. Kae loved it like this, but she wanted something to remember this night by. She rolled over on top of him and whispered "Wanna go for a swim?" He smirked "Sure."
They stripped and Kaedryn took time to marvel at the perfection of his body. He looked at her from top to bottom and winked, making her blush. Without further notice he ran into the water and dove underneath, Kaedryn following right behind him.
They swam and kissed for what seemed like hours and then watched the sunrise together. Promising each other in broken whispers to stay together and keep their love alive during the time apart.
(Time lapse)
Kaedryn woke, blinking sleep from her eyes. She smiled remembering last night and the way Drew had carried her upstairs, whispering his love for her, and promising he'd see her soon.
Then she remembers her fate, and the summer camps awaiting her in northern Maine.
She groaned and fell back into bed, hoping this was all a horrible nightmare.
(Time lapse)
Turns out it wasn't and a few hours later her mother came to collect Kae's bags from her room and escort Kae to her car which would drive her to the airport. Her parents each hugged her, and pushed her toward the car.
The drive to the airport was miserable. It was pouring rain and Kae saw this as an omen of things to come.
Mercifully, the drive was short, and in no time she was walking through security. Right before she did however she heard a shout and turned to see who it was. To her amazement it was Drew, sprinting at full speed towards her. He ran right up to her and said "I don't have much time, my friend is waiting in the car. But I needed to give this to you, open it when the time is right." He kissed her hard and fast and before she had the chance to say anything he was gone, and the security woman was ushering her through the gate, putting him out of her view.
The plane ride was short, just a connection to Vegas where she had to run to catch her connecting flight to Portland, Maine.
This flight was longer however Kae slept through most of it. When she opened her eyes she discovered her shoulder was resting on the boy sitting next to hers shoulder. "Sorry." she mumbled and he said "It was the least I could do, you looked tired." She smiled and said "Thanks."
The flight unboarded twenty minutes later and Kae spotted a man holding a sign saying her last name. She walked up to him and said "Hi. I'm Kaedryn Hill." The rest of the conversation dulled her mind, and before she knew it she was sitting in the back seat of a gigantic truck and she fell asleep again.
The next time she opened her eyes the driver was shaking her awake and she was surrounded by woods. She asked the driver "Where am I?" He smiled gently and said "Welcome to Camp Darkwood."
