Eli had managed to save up enough for a plane ticket, along with the money to go to Second Horizons. Working two jobs over the summer, picking up extra shifts through the colder months as needed after school started back up, and even doing DoorDash here and there. Getting out of Ohio was a dream come true, [i]especially[/i] since he didn’t have to eat Aunt Patricia’s nasty ass potato salad this year. 

He had never been on a flight before. His family didn’t have much money. His mom did her best working as the cashier at the local hardware store, and his father as the head chef at Huskers. Needless to say, the O’Malley’s never did much traveling while Elijah was growing up. He had done as much research into flights as he possibly could, in an effort to be prepared. But no matter how much you read, it never prepared you for your first bout of turbulence. 

Making it through the flight without managing to give himself a heart attack, Eli was happy to have his feet back on solid ground when they landed. Checking in with what he could only assume to be two camp counselors, Eli boarded the bus and found himself soon sitting beside a handsome young man with blonde hair. The two of them exchanged some pleasant conversation during the trip to camp, but Eli couldn’t remember the other young mans name about half way through the trip. While the blonde was cute, he was an absolute [i]bore[/i]. Eli was more than relieved to set foot off the bus - even if the meant he had to follow Jackson.

Jackson [i]seemed[/i] cool, but he also seemed like trouble, making Eli weary. And the tall blonde chick was just… intimidating as fuck. With a sigh, Eli followed his camp counselor and fellow Red members through the snow. Doing his best to take in the scenery, Eli kept quiet in hopes of finding a cabin mate that he felt he could relate to a bit better.
