The day after Squid and Rachel's first kiss, in the rain, each and every one of the campers at Camp Green Lake got on a bus home. The trip was long and tiring, but so was any other busride out of camp. At least this time it wasn't deadly warm, it was still raining once all of them finally arrived home.
The rest of the girls, Caitlin (Bet), Courtney (Dice), Kristy (Shorty), Lindsey (Lucki), Lexie (Honey) Andi-Lee (Babygirl), Hannah (Banana), and Jessica (Strings) all returned to their regular lives and went on with becoming the people they wanted to be. All of them had stayed in touch with Rachel for years to come. All of the boys stayed in touch as well, but not Squid. He had gone to Missouri to live with his cousins, and had lost touch with all of the campers.
The girls have stayed together with the boys from camp for over two years, and their relationships stayed alive and continued to grow each day. As for now 21 year olds, Rachel and Squid…no such luck. Their dream had not yet come true, and it had already been three years. Now Rachel had a steady job in photography and lived in a small apartment in North Carolina. After his cousins got into trouble and were sent to prison, Squid took a job in marine biology on the coast of Florida. The former G-Tent girls all lived in the same building as Rachel, but had their own jobs and differences, yet they all stayed as close as sisters. Each one of them had a different unique personality, even as they grew older. The D-Tent boys stayed in North Carolina and shared 4 condominiums right across the street from the girls' apartments.
Every single day since he left Camp Green Lake, Squid had worked extremely hard to find Rachel again. He searched everywhere in Texas for months, which was where she said she would be, and he even took a four week trip to Raleigh, North Carolina. Her hometown. Rachel had been in Texas, and then had taken a trip to North Carolina right after Squid finished his trip there. They just missed each other, and probably even drove past each other on the roads. By the time Squid came back to Texas, she was already in North Carolina. Squid searched everywhere. But she was nowhere. It seemed that the more Squid searched and needed to find her, the further away she got. It was hopeless, but Squid never gave up. Even to this day, a hot humid Thursday in the year 2004, exactly three years later….
