Chapter 9

"Tristin winked at me Ash!"

"Shut up! He did? And he was conscious?"

"Yeah, as conscious as fuck Ash. I had never felt so many butterflies in my stomach, it was as though I had won the lottery"

"Come on Luna. You're better off with Tristin than winning some lame lottery" Ashley corrected.

"I know right. I can still see his sexy eyelid winking at me"

"Girls! Could you keep it down? We all need some sleep. You're distinctly not the only ones in here" one of the girls who were tentmates with Luna and Ashley complained.

"Yeah, they should. I can't listen to my podcasts in peace just coz I have two garrulous tentmates. Please do keep it down girls" the other girl added.

Luna and Ashley glanced at them, feeling disgusted by them.

"Y'all could go fuck yourselves. We don't mind" Ashley who wasn't exactly the fighting type, was trying to piss two girls off.

"Really? We were nice to you, and you tell us to go fuck ourselves. Screw you, pink head!" The taller tentmate yelled, taking off her headphones.

The both girls, rushed at Ashley, throwing a literal punch on Ashley's face.

"Shit. You ruined my makeup!" Ashley screamed.

"Ash, fight back. Fuck the makeup, and go go" Luna encouraged.

Ashley knew she stood no chance with these girls, so she ran for her dear life, but she couldn't run past these girls. They were fierce, fast, and furious.

They caught up with her before she could leave the tent.

"Having a hard time running pink head" One of them grabbed her pink hair, pulling it backward, for the other girl to have a clear view of her face.

"This is for not being nice to your tentmates" The girl in front of Ashley said, lunging her fists towards her face again, causing Ashley to bleed.

"And this is for..." She paused, as someone held her hands tightly.

"Let go of me, bitch!" She yelled, knocking off Luna's grip on her, causing Luna to fall to the ground.

Luna got back up almost immediately, realising that she should call for help.

"Help! Tristin!" She yelled, banging on the wooden door like thingy of Tristin's tent.

"Hi Luna. I been waiting for you to show up"

"What the...How...why are you here, you piece of shit!?" Luna wasn't exactly happy to see Shane.

"You know, keeping tabs, having fun, campfires, making out, and things like that"

"Mom sent you here to keep tabs on me, right?"

"It seems so, but we both know, I don't give a shit. So, I'd skip that part, and deal with many more fun stuff I could engage in, asides babysitting my little sister" Shane laughed.

"Whatever. Get off the door. Tristin?" Luna searched for Tristin.

Luna met a bunch of other hot dudes who didn't seem to care she was there.

"Oi, where is Tristin?"

"Yo Tristin. Your girl needs ya" the least attractive boy called.

Tristin made quite the entrance, coming out with just a towel around his waist. He was sexier than Luna ever imagined - ripped chest, broad shoulders, perfect abs. He was freaking hunky.

"You-r sh--ir-t" Luna stammered.

"I was at the shower, so I stepped out since I was done anyway. What's going on" Tristin asked Luna, who couldn't get her eyes off his body. She was lost in it, probably making scenarios of her exploring that body someday.

"Luna?"

"Oh, right. Shit! We have to rush to my tent right now. Ash could be dead by now" Luna said, signaling for Tristin to follow her.

As much as Luna wanted to have a conversation with sexy hunky Tristin while they rushed to her tent, she had to get a grip on herself. Ash first, then maybe hunky Tristin much later.

Tristin hurried to get Ashley off the hands of the two girls, who were having fun, beating the shit outta Ashley.

"Really girls!? You both could be expelled for this. Hell, this could ruin our camping. Come on girls" Tristin reminded them of what they already knew.

He sat Ashley down, and asked Luna to get first aid, which she did quickly.

"Here" Luna handed him the first aid box.

Tristin knew just what to do, what tools to use, where to use them, and how to use them.

"Here you go. You should be fine by tomorrow morning" Tristin guessed.

"And you girls fucked up big time. For now, you both have to move out. I would have a dialogue with the Camp counsellor on making a new tent for the both of you."

"Where do we spend the night?" The taller girl inquired.

"I dunno..Uhmm..Come with me, I'd arrange a place for you both" Tristin ordered.

If Luna's crush on Tristin was measured on a scale of 1 to 100, it had leaped to 100 because of what just happened. Luna was impressed by him, the way he handled the situation, how he expressed authority, and how he took care of Ashley.

She smiled, as she watched Tristin walk out of the tent with the two girls behind him.

(Tristin is the freaking Alpha male! I love him) She said to herself.

"Hey Ash. Are you okay?"

"Oh me. I'm fine. It's nothing major really. Those girls didn't hit me as much as you think. Besides, their punches didn't hurt" She said, as opposed to the terrible pain she felt all over her face, and body. She even tilted her head at intervals in response to the pain.

"So, Shane's here" Luna notified.

"Yeah, he's in my campfire group"

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Luna angrily asked.

"I wanted to, Luna. You were too excited about Tristin winking at you, that I focused on your shit first. I wanted us to talk about yours first, before telling you about my campfire friends"

"Alright, so who else is in your group that I should know of" Luna asked.

"Carlos" Ashley shivered, as she mentioned the name.

"Holy shit! Your two dream dudes all in the same place, with you!"

"It's nice, except the pressure to dress more than usual, act more composed, and impress them, is killing me. I'm literally a different person in campfire group"

"You'll be fine Ash. I just can't believe Shane is here. He could ruin my game"

"Ha ha. You'd be fine too"
