Dakota stuffed his 2-disc DVD of Toy Story and a bag of M&Ms inside his black Jansport backpack, throwing his grey hoodie over his shoulder and exited his. He ran to Summer’s bedroom as fast as his large feet could carry him and knocked on the door. Making people happy was a top priority on the teenager’s list and Summer need to major cheering up. It would do both of them good, seeing as her ex-husband was taken away by the man that took over their camp, everyone “hating” her since she was the one that let him and Shiloh kept messing with his head, leaving him thinking that what he wanted was unrequited.
He knew that what Summer and Willow decided wasn’t a bad thing. They were only thinking about what was best for the camp even if was not a popular favor. After a while of silence and no one answering the door, Dakota knocked again and decided to open the door himself. He peered through the gap to see Summer in the room alone. He gives her a small smiles and plops himself right next to her, ripping the bag of M&Ms open and tossing a green one into his mouth. He takes another long look at the blonde and he could feel his heart crumbling inside. Dakota takes a red M&M and holds it in front of Summer’s mouth, “Say ‘ah’.”
I care about you, too, Kota.

Maybe I could come visit you? To help cheer you up?
You’re the only person who seems to get that…

It’s what I’m here for. I care about you a lot, Summer..
I don’t get why you don’t hate me. This is my fault, right? That’s what everyone seems to think.

You were just protecting us. How can I hate you for caring?
No, not really… everyone hates me, he took Jonah and the other undetermined kids, and literally the only thing keeping me from jumping off a cliff is the fact that I’m pregnant.

I don’t hate you, Summer. I’m sure Jonah and the other kids are fine. The Spectrum guy said they would be, right?
I don’t like seeing you this way. It makes me sad.
I’m sorry, Kota.

It’s fine. It was just hard bending over the entire time. My back sorta hurts.
Are you feeling better, Summer?

Wait, why do I have to be your Maid of Honor at our own wedding?
Mhm… Sure.

Wait, don’t be sad!
