(y/n) - your name

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Bass, Gophers. Today's challenge is a true summer camp experience. A canoe trip. You'll be paddling your canoes across the lake to Boney Island."

"Ok, stop talking like Chris (y/n). It's a little unnerving." Heather explains and I shrug as I hold the palm cards Chris gave me.

"Where is he anyway?" Geoff asks.

"How come you're up early too?" Duncan questions.

"Is this the signs of an apocalypse!?" Owen panics, running around and I sigh out.

"Chris and Chef both decided to take a last-minute vacation and left me in charge for today's challenge." I shrug again, too tired to do this.

How is Chris constantly enthusiastic about doing this everyday?

"Nice. Lets slack off today and do whatever we want." Duncan says and everyone cheers but I shake my head, pointing to the camera crew.

"I wish man. Thought the same thing but Chris is going to be making sure you guys to the challenge." Everyone groans. "Ok let's get through these things." I sift through the cards, sighing out. "How many of these are there? Ok, when you get there, you must portage your canoes to the other side of the island."

"We gotta do what?" Geoff asks and I flip the back of the card to see a definition.

"'Portage: the carrying of a boat or its cargo between two navigable waters.' Oh! You have to carry the canoe. You learn something new every day." everyone chuckles at me and I continue explaining the challenge. "Ok, Chris will still judge the rescue fire and I'll relay the results to you on walkie talkies." I throw one of the devices to each team.

"Is that all?" Leshawna asks as I sift through the cards which just had details about how awesome Chris was.

"Um, I think he mentioned something about a curse but I can't remember it." I chuckle nervously and everyone freezes. "Just don't do anything other than the tasks ok." Everyone nods and heads to the beach to get their canoes. As I followed the campers to the beach, Duncan slows down to walk with me.

"Morning sweetheart."

"Morning Duncan." I reply back, chuckling as he looks back at me with wide eyes.

"You said it back."

"Uh yeah." I nod and Duncan just grins, draping an arm around my shoulders. "You seem perkier this morning."

"It's all you. Just seeing you makes my day sweet cheeks."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Fuck why did I say that!? I'm not a sappy dude. I'm not! I'm a tough guy." Duncan points his switchblade at the camera, trying to be scary.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"I almost gagged but Duncan being all cliche is cute. Never expected to hear those words from him ever."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Ready guys!" I hold the gun to the air as everyone is seated in their canoes. "On your marks. Get set." Duncan winks at me as I fire the gun while covering my ear. "Paddle!"

And off they go.

I walk back to the footage room and sit there to watch the campers as they travelled across the lake. I sit down, grabbing a bucket of popcorn and just snacking on it as the campers ran across the island as soon as they got there.

"I'm sure they'll be ok." I shrug and decide to make some sweets in the kitchen. "Maybe I'll make some stuff for the campers." I yawn out, carrying the walkie talkie with me in case the campers are in trouble. I set my stuff down on the table, tying up my hair and ready to make some proper dinner for the campers.

Might need to make extra just for Owen...

As soon as I started making dinner, my phone rang and I answered it. I put it on speaker to hear Chris. "(y/n)! How are the campers doing?"

"Great!" I call out as I dig through the fridge.

"Are you actually watching them?"

"Nah! I'm making some food. I got bored!" I hear Chris sigh out and then start yelling at Chef.

"You better not mess up my kitchen (y/n)!" I hear Chef yell at me as he snatches up the phone.

"Don't worry! I'll clean everything back up. I'm making your favourites so you can have them as soon as you get back."

"You know you're my favourite right." Chris and Chef both call out to me and I roll my eyes.

"I'm your only niece Chris but ok." They both say goodbye and I end the call.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I was humming along to whatever song that was playing out loud on my phone, dancing around as stirred the pasta on the stove. I suddenly hear a loud explosion and screaming from the walkie talkie and I bolt over to grab it.

"Yo what just happened!? Is everyone ok!?" I ask, lowkey worried.

"Everyone is ok!" Trent yells back and I rush over to the footage area, seeing a loud cloud of smoke erupting from the island.

"Izzy almost blew us up!" Heather screams out.

"Hehe, boom boom!" I hear Izzy cackle.

"I guess we know who won huh." I mumble into the walkie talkie as I see the Gophers cheering on the screen. "I have a surprise for yall so get back here fast." The campers immediately run off to get here quickly and I turn the stove off once the food was done. The oven dings signally the cupcakes were done and I turn the oven off, slightly opening up the door to let the hot air out.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"There was an incident where the oven glass shattered while my dad was cooking something in the oven. I get paranoid of keeping the heat in the oven so I open the door just a tad to make sure nothing explodes inside." I chuckle sheepishly.

"My mum doesn't really trust me in the kitchen. She thinks I might kill myself by accident."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I run out to meet the others at the camp and I see DJ swimming like a damn Olympic champion as he carried his team back to the beach first. I wince as they fly over my head, crashing. "And the Bass are the winners!" I cheer out with them.

"So what's the special surprise you planned out for us sweetheart?" Duncan calls out and I beam at everyone.

"Go freshen up and then come to the main lodge." I shoo everyone away and I run back to the lodge to set up the tables. I run around like a headless chicken, trying to get things done before the campers get here.

"Hey sweetheart-" I scream in fright, almost dropping the salad as I turn to face Duncan standing by the doorway.

"Don't creep up on me like that!" I sigh out as Duncan walks up to me and takes the bowl from my hands, setting it down on the table.

"What is all this?" He looks around at the food and then back at me as I still wore my apron.

"Thought that since Chris isn't here, you guys can sneak in some proper food."

"You made all this?"

"Yep!" I grin, looking at my handiwork.

"It's not poisoned is it?" I swat Duncan's arm as he just chuckles. "I'm kidding."

"Help me get the rest of the stuff."

"There's more?"

"Duh, Owen has an insatiable appetite."

"You're not wrong." Duncan follows me into the kitchen and helps me bring the rest of the stuff out. He sneaks in a few bites of food here and there, leaning over me and holding my hip to swipe some sauce. "Not bad." Duncan chuckles against my shoulder and I freeze as he leans into my back to watch me cut up some fruits. I shudder as he wraps his arms around my waist, nuzzling against my hair.

"C-can you t-take this." I stutter out, Duncan letting me go and grabbing the bowls from the table. I breathe out a sigh of relief as he moves away.

"Holy shit!" I hear Own scream and I run out of the kitchen to see the campers standing around in awe. "I think I'm going to cry." Owen bursts into tears and I grin at everyone.

"(y/n), what is this?" Gwen asks.

"Dinner!"

"You made dinner for us!?" DJ exclaims.

"Come here, you beautiful soul!" Leshawna suddenly runs up to me and hugs me, almost squeezing the life out of my body.

"Oi, let her go. You're going to crush her." Duncan calls out, pulling me from Leshawna.

"Ok everyone, dig in!" Everyone dives for the food, sitting down and chatting happily as I walk to the kitchen.

"Aren't you joining us?" Harold asks and I nod.

"Let me just get something-"

"-you've done enough. Just eat." I shriek as I get pulled down next to Duncan and I sigh.

"Ok, ok." I take my apron off and everyone thanks me as we eat together. We all manage to finish the food and I get up to get one more surprise. "I'll be back!" I run back to the kitchen to see the cupcakes sitting on the counter and I quickly cover the top in frosting.

"You really have outdone yourself." I hear Duncan walk in as I set the ready cupcakes on a platter.

"Go sit down, I'll take them out-" I freeze as Duncan holds my chin, tilting my head to face him as he steps closer to me. My back presses against the counter as he leans in, his thumb rubbing against the edge of my lips.

"You had a stain here." His eyes darken slightly, a slight grin on his face as I blushed.

"I-" my breath hitches as Duncan leans down, pressing his lips against my cheek.

"Thank you for tonight." He mumbles before leaning back and swiping a cupcake.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I stare into the camera, slowly going red before letting out a shrill screech. "OMG!"
