? Strings {A Camp Cretaceous x Male Reader Story - Ben}

The next morning all the campers are stuck inside due to the rain. It's pretty boring, but it doesn't suck. Brooklyn and Y/N talk about the difficulties of having on online presence, Brooklyn doing more of the talking.

Ben and Darius discuss various facts and explain different theories to each other, Kenji listens and interjects where he finds it's appropriate.

Yasmina's having trouble being stuck inside all day, so Sammy teaches her some games she used to play on a rainy days when she was younger.

Everyone lounges around in the morning and then eat lunch together in the afternoon. It finally stops raining around 2:00 pm, but Roxie says it's still too wet to go out.

However, around 6:30, Darius has the idea for everyone to go out and build a campfire. After a decent amount of begging from the kids, (and Dave), Roxie agrees.

They all sit around the fire as Darius speaks in an eerie voice, telling a scary story, his hood pulled up over his head for extra spooky affect.

"We thought it'd be fun..." The fire crackles, "We thought we'd be safe... but, we didn't realize the horror waiting for us on the island."

Darius takes a moment and looks around the fire, being sure to make eye contact with everyone to add suspense.

"Claws." He continues, "Teeth... screaming. So much screaming."

Sammy gasps and Ben clutches onto Y/N's forearm. The boy having already given up trying to shake him off. Brooklyn sits still, looking rather uninterested.

"How much screaming?" Ben whimpers, but he's quickly shushed by Kenji.

"Shh! He's getting to the good part."

"The T.Rex stalked closer..." Darius leans in, his voice menacing.

"Her jaws open wide!" He uses his arms as representation, spreading them out.

He opens his mouth to say the next line when, CLICK.

Brooklyn snaps a picture. Breaking everyone from the immersion as they sit back in their seats and look at her, Darius slipping his hood off.

"For the vlog?" Y/N asks, assuming it was obvious.

Brooklyn nodded, "Keep telling your little story!" She encourages Darius, holding the phone up to record.

Darius sighs and pushes his hood back on and everyone leans back in, ready for more. Even Y/N leans forward, interest in hearing what would happen next.

"Okay, here we go..." Kenji mumbles as Darius gets ready.

"The T.Rex sta--"

"Oh dang!" Brooklyn interrupts, once again.

Kenji and Y/N groan.

"Out of storage, wait, I'm sorry. Hold on." She begins tapping at her phone.

Darius slips his hood back off.

"I just don't wanna delete my selfie on Mount Everest, you know?" Brooklyn explains as she scrolls through her camera roll, showing Sammy the picture.

"Maybe I should start over." Darius suggests.

"NO!" Ben shouts, "In fact, you can just stop!"

"Dude chill, he's not even telling the story right now." Kenji rolls his eyes.

"Why are you so strong?" Y/N grumbles, pulling away from Ben. (Or trying to, at least)

"Darius, keep going. Uhm, please." He requests.
