It was you 17th birthday, you didn’t want to do anything with your friends this year, for one they were all busy and didn’t really have time to go. You didn’t fret though. Your parents promised you that you would get to go on a special trip, just the three of you. You arrived at the campground, the forest trees a dark shade of green, and the sky, a beautiful shade of blue, not a cloud in sight. You all set up your tents, your parents are giving you space, so the tents are spread quite far apart.

You stepped out of your finished tent and looked around, there were other families in the area as well, most with younger children than yourself. You told your parents you were going to check out the forest for a bit, they replied with their favorite line “Be Careful.” You walked slowly taking in the scenery, until you bumped into a taller looking boy.

“Ow… I’m so sorry!” You said softly.

“It’s quite alright dear.” He look at you and smiled.

His accent was breath taking. He had to be British.

“My names Jake English, what’s yours?” He tilted his head slightly.

“My name is ______ ______.”

“That’s a pretty name you’ve got there ______.”

You smiled softly, a light blush rising on your face. He looked roughly your age, maybe 18 or so. You asked him if he was camping here, he nodded and said he was staying by himself.

“Staying by yourself is like an adventure.” he stated happily.

“I’m kind of by myself… I get my own tent.”

“Well that’s a start.” Jake stated with a smile.

Jake invited you to go on a walk with him through the forest, you happily accepted. It was near lunch time when you decided to head out, so you brought along some sandwiches to eat together for a picnic. You really enjoyed Jakes company, he was so nice to you. He would tell you stories about the adventures he has been on.

“Jake, your life sounds so exciting compared to mine, you’re so lucky.”

“I’m sure yours is just as exciting.” Jake smiled again.

The sun started to go down, it was close to dinner, your parents would want you back soon. You asked Jake if he would like to eat dinner with you, he accepted and walked with you back to camp. You introduced Jake to your family, they really liked him. You all ate and laughed together. Later that night you had a little camp fire where you roasted little hot dogs and marshmallows. It was getting really late and you let out a yawn.

“I think it’s time for someone to get some sleep.” Jake whispered softly with a chuckle.

You nodded and went off to your tent to get dressed and get your toothbrush and toothpaste. You and Jake walked over to the washrooms that were there, they weren’t the greatest but they were better than the portable ones. You walked inside and did what you need to do, Jake waited for you outside, you exited the washroom and walked back to your tent with him. Your parents were already asleep in their tent. Jake opened his arms to hug you. You hugged him back gently.

“If you need anything I’m in the green tent over there.” He whispered softly pointing to the tent a few feet away.

He let you go and walked off towards it, but before he did he said his final goodnight. You had a mile long smile on your face, you were so happy. You crawled into your tent and sleeping bag. You fell asleep for a few hours or so but woke up shivering violently. You put on a sweater and opened the tent flap to see snow falling.

“It’s only August! Summer is not over yet!” You whispered yelled.

You weren’t prepared for this type of weather, you peaked into your parents peep hole in the tent, they were fast asleep together, nice and warm. You put on your shoes and walked over to the washroom, they were so much warmer than the tent. You heard a knock at the washroom door.

“______, its me.” Jake said softly.

You were just sitting around in there so you opened the door. Jake walked in with you and grabbed your hands.

“They’re like ice ______.” Jake said seriously.

“I know I’m freezing.” You said still shivering.

Jake pulled you into a hug, he was so warm. He said he checked his phone and saw that there was going to be a little snow, he said he was worried about you.

“You’re staying with me tonight, there is no way your light sleeping bag can handle this cold.” Jake whispered softly.

He took off his outer jacket which left him in a sweater. He put the jacket around you so you wouldn’t be as cold. You made it to his tent, he reopened his tent and let you go inside first. It was rather spacey in the tent, but still much warmer than yours. He crawled inside his sleeping bag and beckoned you to join him. You had a light blush form on your face, you were too embarrassed to move.

“Come now ______. I won’t do anything to you.” Jake said sincerely.  

You hesitantly got inside with him, it was really warm. He said the sleeping bag can withstand -20 degree weather. You were surprised but you were too tired to say much more about it. You cuddled up against him, he wrapped his arms around you to keep you close.

“Thank you Jake.” You whispered softly.

“No problem, dear.” Jake replied just as softly.

You stayed up a bit longer talking to Jake and getting to know each other even better. He eventually told you that you needed to sleep because it was really late. You obeyed him and you both fell asleep. The next morning was just a chilly. So Jake said you could borrow his sweater. You woke up in his tent alone, you were scared, you calmed down as soon as you heard Jake’s voice. He was explaining how I was about to get hypothermia, so i was staying in his tent. You could hear the thank you’s coming from both your parents. Jake opened the flap of the tent, a charming smile on his face.

“Wake up sleeping beauty.” Jake whispered.

You let out a soft giggle.

“I’m up.” You said softly.

You slowly got out of the tent, the sweater that Jake gave you was working to keep you warm. The snow melted in the afternoon and went back to its normal warm temperature. You almost didn’t want to give Jake back his sweater. He brought you back to his tent and brought out his dark green hoodie that he was wearing the night before.

“You keep it, to remember me by.” Jake said slightly saddened that you had to leave.

You hugged him tightly before your parents called for you to get in the car. They got in a drove off a bit to give you two some privacy.

“I’m going to miss you Jake.” You said softly.

Jake didn’t reply, he only leaned down and placed a gentle kiss on your lips. Your eyes widened and your face turned red. You hugged one last time before saying goodbye, for maybe forever.

You put on Jake’s sweater and put your hands in the pocket and found a piece of paper with his number on it. You quickly put it in your phone and started texting him immediately.

“Please tell me I can see you again.” Jake said in the text.

“Of course :) “ You replied back.

Till then you have been seeing each other every weekend from then on.
