Deavan and Marcus sat upright in their desks, staring down the slow-ticking clock. The countdown had begun early that morning as they got ready for the day. When the bell rang, they bounded out of the

classroom, eager to begin their weekend adventure.

Deavan and Marcus had been planning this trip for weeks. They were going to spend the weekend camping in the nearby mountains, a place they both loved to escape to for some peace and quiet. As they packed up their gear and loaded it into Marcus' pick-up truck, they couldn't contain their excitement.

The drive to the campsite was long but beautiful, with stunning views of the rolling hills and dense forests surrounding them. They sang along to their favorite songs on the radio, soaking in the freedom of the open road.

When they finally arrived at the campsite, they quickly set up their tent and gathered firewood for the evening. As the sun began to set, they sat around the campfire, roasting marshmallows and sharing stories.

Under the twinkling stars, Deavan and Marcus felt a sense of peace and contentment that they had been craving for so long. They fell asleep that night to the sound of crickets chirping and the crackling of the fire, feeling grateful for the friendship and adventure they shared.

The weekend passed in a blur of hiking, exploring, and swimming in a nearby lake. Deavan and Marcus laughed and talked, enjoying each other's company and the beauty of the natural world around them.

As they packed up their campsite on Sunday afternoon, they knew that they would always cherish the memories they had made on this trip. As they drove back home, they were already planning their next adventure, eager to make more memories in the great outdoors.
