The day of the camping trip, everybody piled their things into two vehicles. Not the whole gang was going, but Helena and Dylan met up at The Planet with several bags in tow. Thanks to Helena and her several needless bags, everybody thought she was packing away from a whole week, not just a weekend. They met up with Alice and Tasha, Shane and Molly, Jenny, and Kit.

"Whats with all the bags?" Shane asked as she stuffed her one and only duffle bag into the back of one of the vehicles.
Dylan joked, "Helena insists that there’s going to be time to do her hair and make-up."
Shane laughed as she looked from Dylan to Helena, "You do realize this is camping we’re talking about here, Helena. We’re going to be Outside and we’ll be lucky if we have any running water."
"What do you mean we’ll be lucky if we have running water?" Helena inquired.
Kit joined in on the conversation, "well, none of us have actually been to this campground so we dont know. but its exciting isnt it!"
Dylan noticed the worried look on Helena’s face and couldnt help but chuckle as she wrapped her arms around her waist, whispering in her ear things that made Helena chuckle too.
"You two seem so happy together" Molly said as she walked up next to Shane, "Like, you can just see the absolute love you guys have for each other."
Dylan placed her forehead against Helena’s, smiled and said, "thank you", "she paused, "This is my second chance come true after all. I’m not going to blow it this time."
Shane joked, "you guys make me sick." which caused Molly to laugh and elbow her. Shane shrugged her shoulders, smirking playfully at Molly before everybody finished packing up their stuff in the vehicles.

When everybody was accounted for, they assigned vehicles and off they went.
The car ride was rather uneventful, but between the loud music, the out of tune singing and the several unsuccessful attempts at trying to play I Spy, Dylan and Helena seemed to be off in their own little world, holding each other in the back seat, chuckling at the jokes nobody else heard.

In the other vehicle where Alice and Tasha happened to be, along with Jenny of all people, Helena and Dylan happened to be the topic of discussion.
"I dont get why you guys are still so hard on Dylan. I mean, I know I didnt know her back then, but from what I gather now, she seems so genuine and truely, deeply cares for Helena."
"What are you talking about Tasha?" Jenny said nonchalantly as she does with everything.
"Dont give me that, Jenny, I see how you guys look at her. I notice that you still keep her outside the group. What happened, happened. why cant you just let it go? Helena obviously has."
"We do keep her on the outside, huh? Alice wondered, "I dont know man, I think its just because we know what she’s capable of. who knows if she’d do something like that again, you know."
"Are you serious?" Tasha asked, looking at Alice, "She’s proven herself over and over again. I hope you guys arent planning something vindictive." she then glared at Jenny through the rearview mirror, "cuz I know you are always conspiring."
Jenny made a face at Tasha, scrunching up her face before looking out the window. Before anybody else could change the subject, Jenny continued, "oh, I forgot to tell you guys that I invited Sam."
"Jenny!" they all said in unison.
Alice shook her head and gritted her teeth, "you would. Are we almost there yet? Remind me to not ride back in the same vehicle as her, somebody might get hurt."
