Finding Claire's nephews was like finding a needle in a haystack. Without any description about the boys' whereabouts or how they look, I was screwed. However, I was on the phone to some Zara lady who I couldn't even understand because of her high pitched British accent. Claire was really pushing me hard on this task, it isn't even anything to do with dinosaurs or the lab. I'm a free babysitter to her. GREAT!
Looking up I could see another lady, dressed in white, waving at me hysterically. I turned around to make sure she wasn't waving to someone behind me, because that's embarrassing. Never the less, the lady was waving at me and I could recognize two boys – the nephews – next to her. I had found them! I was victorious. Well, for now at least.
"Ah, finally, we've been looking for you for centuries." Zara commented rudely.
The shorter and younger looking nephew chuckled at the remark. I huffed overenuthsisaticly and already started to despise this day.
With all the unhappy gestures going around Zara decided to continue to talk. "Well, it doesn't matter. We've found you now. I'm Zara, these are Claire's nephews: Gray Mitchell." She pointed her long, slender finger to the smaller nephew – Gray. "And this is Zach Mitchell." Zara's finger landed on the taller nephew - Zach – who had brownie coloured hair with matching mesmerising brownie eyes, his lips were luscious and so kissable but so tensed and annoyed. He obviously didn't want to be here.
"Hey." Gray spoke confidently and excitedly. "Are you going to show us the dinosaurs?"
"I'll try my best. I'm Felicity Kane. I'm the smarted girl in the world."
Zach looked up from his phone and sniggered at my statement. "Then why do you limit yourself to this shit hole for kids."
Instantly, I saw past the boy's good looks and I now saw a hideous, out-spoken bully. That thought would never leave my brain.
"Actually, Isla Nublar is for all ages and is exciting for everyone if you embrace its coolness. The reason I'm in this 'shit hole for kids' is because I know everything there is to know about dinosaurs and one day I want to run this place. Anyway, for now, I'm your Aunt's apprentice. So I am already more superior than you." I finished the statement by crossing my arms and slightly tilting my head to the side.
"Oh my god! You're like me! I adore dinosaurs!" Gray shouted in my face, but I wasn't really listening, I was concentrating of Zach's tightly clenched face that starred at me consistently. God, he was so beautiful.
"Okay, okay, enough with the swearing around your young brother, lets head off!" Zara pushed past us and I suddenly jumped out of my trance and it seemed that Zach had too and then we obeyed accordingly.
So we ended up going on a numerous amount of rides and seeing the T-rex. Gray was always testing me on every single DNA in a dinosaur and I always gave him the correct answer. Zach was more silent and concentrated, he wasn't even giving this place a chance.
For now we were strolling around the centre of the park with Zara yapping on her phone behind us.
"Why do you hate this place so much?" I wondered to Zach, who replied with a shrug. "I mean, have you been here before because I understand how it can get really boring after a while. It's just that dinosaurs fascinate me. What fascinates you Zach?"
"You know, the usual things for seventeen year old boys. Sex, hot girls, boobs, sex, booze, more sex, sexy hot girls and fantasying about Cara Delevingne." His reply was so causal and unbelievably pathetic.
It only took me about 5 seconds to come up with a snarky remark. "Well, you know what they say. Boys who are fascinated by sex have never actually done the deed." I smiled happily before skipping forwards to talk to Gray instead, leaving a very aghast Zach behind me.
Gray and I were discussing genetics when Zach ran toward us pushing us forwards. "Quick, scram!" He whispered and then we were running.
We finished off our sprint, losing Zara on the way, at the Gryosphere ride. My favourite ride here.
"This is going to be awesome!" Gray exclaimed - full of glee.
"That was a good idea Zach." I told him with an impressed look in my eyes.
The queue was easy and quick due to the fact we had V.I.P bands. The ride was only a two seater so I offered Gray to sit on my lap, which somewhat annoyed Zach.
"Hey Felicity, you can sit on my lap if you want." Zach informed me with a witty grin on his face.
"No thanks, I wouldn't want to get groped at seventeen please." I fastened the seat belt over me and Gray, tightly. Zach stared at me intensely. "What? Have you never seen Orange is the new Black?"
Then we were off, Zach insisted he drove us around the dinosaurs but I could notice his hands shaking. Jimmy Fallon's video was being played and I could hear Gray giggle in front of me. This wasn't that bad.
No one was talking but I didn't think anyone cared. We were all watching the dinosaurs in silence, evaluating their movements and trying to look deep into their eyes to find out their emotions. The faint echo of roars sounded like a lullaby. Slowly and surely, I placed my hand on the gear stick without remembering that someone's hand was already on it. Yet, everything was so peaceful I didn't care and Zach didn't seem to either. I could feel his eyes try to press into my soul, I smiled to myself outside the window.
"Hey, Felicity. What does that mean?" Gray broke me from my trance and showed me the screen flashing red.
"'Ride closed, make your way back urgently', don't worry Gray, let's just go." I told him, removing my hand from Zach's. "Come on then Zach. Return back."
Except Zach wasn't listening to me, he took the hamster ball forwards toward a broken gate. "Come on guys, off road."
"No, listen to Felicity!" Gray insisted, a slight whine in his sentence.
"Yeah. This could be something serious." I stated. No response. We just continued off road.
As we travelled into the depths of the forest, my breathing become more frequent and my heart rate a lot faster. I was not comfortable with this.
"Look see, four…four dinosaurs up close and personal." Zach protested.
"Gryospheres." Gray said under his breath.
"No thanks to you." I scoffed.
"What do you mean?" Zach stopped moving the ball and turned to face me. "Where else would you get such great views?"
"I don't know, on the ride when it's not a danger hazard. You're risking all of our lives here." I responded.
"You said it yourself, it was probably nothing."
"If we got back to base! If!" I yelled.
"Stop being so ungrateful, there are four dinosaurs for you to see right here. So instead of staring at me and yelling at me, look at them." Zach stated.
"Don't you think I would if I could?" I gulped, before realising what I had just said I turned from him and sunk into my chair.
"Guys." Gray interrupted.
"What?" Zach asked.
"There's five dinosaurs not four."
Zach scoffed, "aren't you supposed to be some genius, there are four."
"No, Gray's right." I pointed to the location of the five dinosaurs. "One…Two…Three…Four…Five."
