im kind of obsessed with this graphic.
intaglio print from print making class, the prompt was “what once was,” and that was around the time they discovered that super well preserved dinosaur fetus in Yingliang China, in which the fetus was curled in the exact way a modern chicken curls in its eggs, and there was something really magical about that discovery I wanted to make this biblical parallel, in which the dinosaurs of the shepards were depictions of saurischian dinosaurs, a lineage that went extinct, while depictions of divine figures were ornithischian dinosaurs, the lineage that survive today as modern birds
My school had a back to school bash with arts and crafts so I painted the ASL sign for Dinosaur
[Image ID: Dinosaur in American Sign Language in acrylic. A hand in flat O handshape is painted with a yellow eye, a nostril, green scales, and teeth lining the thumb and index finger. End ID]

Book Dinosaurs
Posting on Tumblr my art in the past few months.
hi tumblr rate my bedside table set-up
if you think the ocean now is a scary fuck then you haven’t seen the scary fuck that is the prehistoric ocean
so im watching the history channel on youtube (i could tell you so much on short nosed bears rn) but i just finished watching this thing called the mosasaur and its your pretty basic mega water dinosaur, 50 feet long, eel tail, sonar, doesn’t chew its food etc, but then it got dark
these shits were top predators, no competition whatsoever…..except from themselves. the narrator was saying that even though there was nothing to oppose them, they somehow continued to evolve into like fifty 50 different species of this mega predator. And its really cool because it started as a three foot lizard and in just 6 million years it became “the ultimate success story of evolution”.
they had these weird funky teeth too. not only were they really big and strong like you’d expect but they had teeth in the roof of them mouth cuz they’d slide their dinner down their mouth like a conveyer belt. and since their so big you’d think wow how did no one see them? apparently sea creatures are frickin blind or something bc this megabeasty would just lie on the frickin bottom of the ocean and wait for something to swim up. then it would propel its ass up with this snaky tail and just boosh i ated you
but mosasaurs kept evolving even though they were literally the top predator. why is that?? that doesn’t happen in nature. turns out they were causing themselves to evolve. turns out they’re one of the only species (including humans) that naturally commits murder aka kills their own kind. they’ll bite each others heads until they can get a good grip then one of them snaps the neck. and they didn’t even eat the other guy. they did it. for. fun. (apparently they thrive on violence????)
and im over here going like wtf. but then it got worse. these scary ass motherfuckers began to go anywhere they pleased. they evolved even more and then moved into fresh water. like swamps and rivers. thats terrifying. NOTHING On eARth could stop them.
Nothing on Earth ;) aka enter the extinction comet
BUT then I learned that even the bigass dino killing comet didn’t even kill the thing. They literally had to starve to death because all of their prey died out. NOPE not them. THey didn’t die out because they’re like dinosaur gods or some shit. EVERYTHING DIED BUT THEM
Bad Coffee Leads to Love
One-Shot: I saw Jurassic World and just completely fell in love with Lowery. Can you do a one shot about him liking you but he doesn’t think you know he exists please? Thank you! Announcement: Sorry this took so long to get out! I hope you enjoy :-) Warnings: Mild language.
A loud yawn escaped your mouth as you stretched out your cramped limbs. Sitting in a chair all day and staring at multiple computer screens was starting to take its toll. Pushing yourself off of your chair you decided that it was time for another cup of the liquid consciousness that was coffee. Inside the small break room you made for the coffee machine. Apparently everyone else had the same idea because the was a line starting to form. You sighed and plopped down into one of the few chairs left, rubbing your tired eyes. It was almost the end of your shift and you were thankful.
You were suddenly brought out of your thoughts when someone gently placed a hot cup of office brand cruddy coffee in front of you. Looking up you saw a brown haired guy who worked here as well, Lenny? Or was it Larry, you couldn’t quite remember, which you felt bad about at this moment.
You looked him in the eyes, “Is this for me or are you taunting me? Cause if you’re taunting me, I might have to kill you.”
His eyes went wide for a second until he realized you were joking and sat in the empty plastic chair next to you, “Uh, no, i- it’s for you. The line is really long so I thought I would grab an extra one.”
You smiled, “Well, thank you. Aww, man, now I feel bad. I can’t quite remember your name.”
He kind of shrugged it off, like he got that a lot, “That’s ok, my names Lowery.”
“Well, Lowery,” you stuck out your hand, “I’m Y/N. Nice to formally meet you. And thanks so much for the coffee. I was about to fall alseep!”
He chuckled, “Yeah, I know how that can be.”
“Wouldn’t give it up for anything in the world, though.”
“Oh, no way! Dinosaurs are amazing!”
“They are!” you paused and looked over at him, “Wait, don’t you have all of those little figurines on your console?”
“Yeah… I- I know it’s weird but-”
“Well of course it’s weird! But that’s the cool thing about it!”
Lowery looked up at you and smiled with relief, “Really?”
“Heck yeah!” You said, taking another drink of coffee.
There were a few moments of silence between the two of you, just sipping coffee under the fluorescent lightbulbs.
After a while, Lowery spoke up, “Hey, Y/N, I-I know I haven’t actually spoken to you before now but,” he took a shaky breath before continuing very quickly, “It’s just that I’ve seen you around the office and you’re really pretty and I was wondering if you would go to dinner with me or maybe coffee I don’t really know but I understand if you don’t want to and-”
You quickly cut him off, “Lowery. You seem like a really cool guy. Yeah, we can go to dinner.”
He stared at you, a little shocked at first, but then started smiling, “Really?”
“Yeah,” you said, “I think it would be really nice. Maybe not tonight but this weekend?”
“Ye-Yeah! Sure, of course, thank you so much!”
You chuckled and stood up, your break now over. Grabbing a napkin and a pen, you wrote your number on it and gave it to him, “Here, we can text later. I’ll be looking forward to it, Lowery.”
With that you tossed your now empty cup into the garbage and went back to your station. Lowery meanwhile just sat in his chair with the napkin in his hand.
Saying to no one in particular, “I really freakin love this job!”
Probably Just The Heat
One-Shot: Hii, I love your writing, this request is for Jurassic World, I was just wondering if you could do an imagine where the reader and owen hate each other and are always arguing but they both secretly like each other? Thx ☺ Announcements: Sorry about the end, I ran out of ideas. I hope you like it though! Enjoy! Wanings: None
You finished filling the Velociraptor treat bags and wiped your bloody hands off on a near by rag. Wiping the sweat off of your forehead with your upper arm you made your way off of the cat-walk and was about to go wash your hands when you accidentally ran into someone. Looking up quickly you were about to apologize when you saw who it was and scowled. Owen Grady, the head Velociraptor trainer, known more to you as, ‘Mortal enemy’.
Seeing as how your relationship was a mutual hate for each other he scowled too, “Watch it.”
“Same to you, buddy,” you growled back.
Casting one last dirty glare in your direction, he walked away and disappeared up the catwalk. Turning back around you yourself walked towards the nearest restroom and started scrubbing your hands clean of blood. You noticed that your hands were shaking a bit, and you couldn’t figure out why. Its not like your encounter with the loser was all that intense. What, with his wavy hair and big arms… wait, what?
You shook your head. There is no way that you were falling for that stupid, blond haired, motorcycle riding, Velociraptor training, jack-wagon. His stupid sparkly eyes weren’t even all that great. Your eyebrows furrowed with concern, the heat on this island might be baking your brains and making you think these crazy thoughts. Yeah, thats it, your not going insane, just having a heat stroke.
You sighed, dried your hands, and left the restroom, making your way up the catwalk to get to your next task of the day. You noticed that, thankfully, Grady had gotten done with the recent training exercise with the Raptors and was off talking to Barry and that creepy guy, Hawthorn? Huckleberry? Eh, something like that. The guy was an enormous pain in the you know what. He kept coming back and stared rather evilly at the pack of Raptors, talking nonsense about using them as weapons. Stupid, that guy was just plain stupid.
You sighed and gritted your teeth slightly, they were standing directly where you needed to go to get some tools. Grumbling, you tried to quietly maneuver yourself behind the group of arguing men. While you did so you may or may not have snooped in on their conversation. Although, you pretty quickly lost interest. The jackwad who’s name you were pretty sure started with 'H’ was just spouting more of his seemingly endless amount of stupid. You were about to close the gate behind you, as was the rule for safety, when Grady quickly sidestepped inside. You shrugged and let him close it while he kept on with his conversation.
One thing that did make you smile was the fact that neither Barry nor Owen were buying it. You wiped the smile off of your face as you grabbed some more random tools off of the wall. While you didn’t exactly like Grady, he wasn’t stupid. He knew that the Raptors were wild animals and couldn’t be controlled. In fact, since you were on the topic anyway, why did you hate Grady? He didn’t do anything to you necessarily, maybe it was his cocky attitude, or was it his I’m-indestructible sort of demeanor?
You were pulled from your thoughts as you were about to leave the cage, when you heard someone shout, “Pig loose!”
You quickly turned around, looked up, and saw that one of the new workers had stuck the catcher pole down into the inclosure in an attempt to wrangle the loose pig. Speaking of stupid, am I right?
The next few moments were a blur, although you faintly registered the kid falling over the edge of the catwalk when one of the girls sped by and snapped up the pig in her powerful jaws. The next thing you saw was Grady rush past you and into the now open Raptor pen. Quickly snapping out of it, you rushed and stopped the gate from opening up any farther.
You snapped your attention back to Grady and the new kid, “Grady!” you hissed, “What are you doing?”
But he ignored you, and you quickly took into account the four large predators now surrounding the duo. The kid made a sounds that sounded somewhat scared and pained, and you realized he had a sprained or broken ankle from the fall. He was sitting meat.
“I’m probably gonna be fired for this,” you said faintly to yourself, and rushed into the pen as well.
You heard Barry’s voice behind you, saying something rational like, 'They’re completely stupid’, or, 'They’re probably gonna die’. At least those are the thoughts that are running through your head right now. Barry was probably being a lot more sympathetic and worried.
You heard a voice from in front of you this time, “Y/N? What are you doing? Get out of the pen! It’s dangerous.”
It took all of your self control to not just stop right there and scoff at him. Instead, you kept moving towards the injured intern, while scoffing at him.
“Says the guy standing closest to predatory wild animals.”
You hooked your arms under the kid’s arms and hauled him towards the gate and back into safety.
Turning around you shouted at Grady, “Owen! We’re clear! Get your butt back in here.”
He spared no time rolling under the now closing gate, just as the Raptor squad descended on their prey in a flurry of hisses and claws. You allowed yourself a moment of relief when all they got was a face full of metal bars and slumped against one of the cool cement walls of the cage, almost tripping over one of the tools you had dropped earlier.
“Kid,” Owen said, speaking to the injured intern, “You ever wonder why there was a job opening in the first place?” he asked the shivering form on the ground.
He turned around to you and you mentally groaned, just knowing that you were about to be fired, “And you, follow me.”
You furrowed your eyebrows but hurriedly followed Owen out of the cage and off to one of the quieter parts of your mutual workplace. He stopped and you stuck your hands into the pockets of your dirty tan pants.
He started of how you had expected, “That was stupid, just running into the cage like that, you could’ve gotten hurt,” he continued, “Or worse, killed. I-I care about you.”
“Well,” you said very quickly, “If I may add, you weren’t exactly doing too hot in there either. Heck, one or the both or, yes, even all three of us could have been killed. But, hey! We’re all still alive and have a great story to tell everyone at Thanksgiving dinners. And, also… Wait, what? Did you just say that you cared about-”
You were cut off when Owen’s lips crashed into yours. This, shocking as it may be, made all of your inner organs do cartwheels. Wait, you thought, didn’t we hate each other like, two seconds ago? Although, you still couldn’t figure out why. And also, do I like him? Does he like me back? What is going on? Were we both having heat strokes? All of these thoughts flashed through your head in less than a second, and all too soon, at least you thought so, the kiss ended.
You looked at Owen and noticed that hiss cheeks were a touch pink. Although, you couldn’t blame him, yours were probably even redder.
“What just happened?”
Owen chuckled slightly, “Uh, I was trying to ask you out for dinner sometime, but got over excited, what about you?”
You were fairly certain that your eyebrows were still raised in shock, “Uh, well, I-I guess that I was saying 'sure, why not’ but I think my brain just stopped working,” ugh, you mentally smacked yourself, yep, that was you, smooth.
Grady smiled and kissed you again, this time though, you melted into it.

Of in the distance, one of the other workers begrudgingly handed Barry a small wad of cash, “I can’t believe it,” he said, “They’re always at each other’s throats. I did not expect this.”
Barry smiled, “Are you joking? So much sexual tension was just released that my ears popped from the change in pressure. The power of observation, my friend, is a good one to have.”
And with that, the two men chuckled and walked off to leave the embracing couple some space. Even the Raptors seemed to be cooing at them.
“We don’t just have a skeleton,” said one of the nodosaur researchers involved. “We have a dinosaur as it would have been.”
Known as a nodosaur, this 110 million-year-old, armored plant-eater is the best preserved fossil of its kind ever found.

Scaredy Cat
One-Shots: Can I have a Zach Mitchell imagine when it’s my birthday and he takes me somewhere romantic? Please Announcements: Hope you all enjoy this one! Warnings: None
You ran your hands through your hair and yawned, making your way outside of the hotel and into the humid night air. You began to look around for your boyfriend, Zach, who had texted you to come outside. You started to yawn again when someone jumped in front of you. Instead of yawning you let out a strangled cry of surprise and jumped back.
“Yeesh, scaredy cat,” Zach said, coming out of the shadows, “I wasn’t being that creepy.”
You let out a breath and slugged your boyfriend in the arm, “You were totally being creepy! Like, serial killer creepy! What are you doing?”
He laughed and wrapped his arm around your shoulders, “Eh, well, what better day to make you fear for your life then your birthday! And besides, I needed to grab your attention. Because, since I am the best boyfriend ever, I’m taking to a nice place.”
You squinted at him, “What place is gonna be open this late in an amusement park?”
“It’s not a restaurant… exactly, but I’m gonna cover your eyes.”
“Ok, now we’re going back into serial killer territory, where are we going?”
“No spoilers,” Zach said, whilst wrapping a piece of cloth around your eyes.
“You run me into something and I swear I will kick you in the shins,” you commented after he took your hand and began walking.
“I would expect nothing less.”
After a few minutes of silence and more walking, Zach stopped suddenly, causing you to bump into the back of him. You furrowed your eyebrows and walked backwards, trying not to fall over in the process.
“Can I take this off now?” You asked.
“Allow me, m'lady,” he replied.
You felt the cloth being untied and then moving away from your face. Blinking quickly to make your eyes adjust to the low light, you let out a small gasp. In front of you there was a large fluffy blanket with dinosaurs on it, probably from the gift shop, and on it was a small picnic, with some candles strewn about.
You smiled brightly and turned to Zach, “Oh, it’s wonderful. This is really sweet, you didn’t have to do this, y'know.”
“Of course I did! Why wouldn’t I? Your the best friend I’ve ever had, and, well, I love you,” he said quietly.
You grabbed his hand and sat on the blanket, careful not to set anything on fire, and then kissed him on the cheek, “I love you too. Now, whats for dinner?”
He smiled at you, “Uh, well, obviously I didn’t have anything to cook, so,” he took two containers of take-out food and handed one to you, “I got some stuff from that restaurant we saw earlier.”
“Even more romantic,” you said, taking the food.
The two of you sat there for the rest of the night, talking and looking at the island and the stars, while finishing mediocre park food. You almost fell asleep right then and there if Zach hadn’t told you to go to bed for real. While in the elevator you smiled sleepily and chuckled softly at nothing in particular.
Well, maybe one thing, or, should you say, person.
Grounded
One-Shot: Is it ok to request a one shot based off an existing imagine (secretly dating Zach and having your father Owen find out)? Thank you, great blog :) Announecements: I realize I am a bad person and I’m so sorry for not posting for so long again. But I love you all my precious peoples! Please enjoy :-) Warnings: None
“Alright Y/N, I’m heading out to work, try not to die while I’m out!”
You chuckled to yourself and shouted back down the hall, “No promises! Bye dad!”
You paused and listened, hearing the front door shut and your dad, Owen, start up his old motorcycle and leave. You hurried, got showered, dressed, and put your shoes on before making your way out of the Bungalow. Grabbing your bike you started to make your way to the docks.
Before you had come to the island you had met Zach and one thing led to another and boom, relationship. It had been a struggle ever since your father had gotten his really super cool job at Jurassic World and had to move to the island but miraculously, the both of you had stayed in contact. But, because your father was so protective, there really was no choice but to keep the relationship a secret. You pushed back the slight sadness of having to lie to your dad as you started thinking about today. Today was the day that Zach and his little brother, Gray, were coming to Jurassic World for a vacation and to visit their Aunt Claire. To be honest, this was the greatest coincidence ever. You stashed your bike at the usual place and walked into the bustling crowed of vacationing families, looking back and forth for the other teenagers.
Finally, you saw the disgruntled looking face of your boyfriend and the happy face of his brother, “Hey guys! Over here.”
Their heads snapped up and over to your position, immediately both of them started to smile.
“Y/N!” Zach said, walking up and hugging you.
Wow, you thought, this is your first hug from him in a long while. You forced yourself from him in fear that you would just stay there forever and placed your hands on your hips.
“C'mon,” you said, smiling, “I’ll show you to the hotel and then we can get you some VIP passes. Courtesy of my boss, your awesome aunt.”
The two boys shared a glance and turn their attention back to you.
“It’s really nice to actually see your face and not through a computer screen, Y/N,” Zach said, “Ive missed you so much.”
You softly pecked him on the cheek and then looked him in his soft, warm eyes, “I’ve really missed you too. And hey! Now we have a whole bunch of time to spend together! At least the days my dad is at work which is most of the time so-”
“Wait,” Zach interrupted, “I thought that you had told your dad.”
You grinned guiltily, “It might have slipped… ok, I didn’t tell him. But it’s not because I’m ashamed of you or anything! It’s just that, well, if he found out I really don’t know how he’d react.” You looked down at your shoes, “I’m sorry.”
“No, I’m sorry, I don’t want you to have to lie to your dad, you should tell him at some point.”
“I know, I know, and I will, ok? Maybe once you’re safely off the island and a couple hundred miles out.”
He smiled softly and wrapped his arms around your shoulders, “Sounds good.”
You chuckled and turned your attention over to Gray, who had, for some odd, unknown reason, lost interest in the date talk.
“You ready to go see some dinosaurs?”
The smaller boy perked up instantly, “Finally! Now c'mon! We’re wasting daylight,” and with that, he began to jog ahead of you.
“He just sucks the energy right out of ya and uses it for his own purposes, doesn’t he?” Zach asked.
You laughed again, “C'mon, grumpy Gus,” And began pulling him in the direction of the hyper-active child.
—-
It was around the time after the T-Rex exhibit, that Gray finally asked, “Hey, Y/N?”
You looked over at him, “Yeah?”
“What does your dad do on the island?”
You shrugged a little bit, faking boredom, “Oh, y'know, he just trains a pack of wild Velociraptors, the normal stuff, I guess,” You smiled when you saw his face light up with wonder.
“Ooh, really? Can we go see them?”
Your smile dropped a bit, “Oh, um, I don’t know if…” you trailed off as you saw that look of excitement drop off his face, it broke your heart. No kid needs to have their dreams snuffed out, even if they involved sneaking around your fathers workplace with your contraband boyfriend.
“I don’t know if I can wait! Lets go,” you finally said, after sighing.
Zach looked over at you with a surprised look on his face, expecting you to say something different, “Are you sure? I thought that your dad didn’t know about us, really, we don’t have to go.”
You looked over at him with a nervous smile, “Ahh, what the heck? We’ll just need to do a bit of sneaking, and if we get caught then I’ll just say I’m giving you guys a private tour cause you’re the boss’ nephews. I’m sure everything will go ok.”
—-
The three of you stood just towards the edge of the jungle before the gigantic clearing the held the large arena for the Raptor training.
“Ok,” you said, and began pointing out specific places, “We’ll just run over behind that crate over there, and then over to that little alcove just over there and wait there for a little bit until they start doing something with the Raptors, got it?” After seeing them nod you continued, “Remember, if anyone asks who you are, you’re with me, alright? Alright, lets go,” and took off towards the crate.
Once the boys got there you looked around again and dashed off towards the ground level viewing area, and stepped to the side to catch your breath. The boys got there and only moments later you heard the familiar sound of the big gates sliding open and the sound of a pig’s squealing becoming louder.
You motioned them to crouch down, “Ooh, hey, its about to start. C'mon!”
The three of of you watched in awe as the four, sleek, reptilian bodies came into view, their lethality showing in their movements. Gray had his mouth wide open, and even Zach looked slightly excited.
“And we’re moving!” You looked up, squinting against the harsh sun, and smiled.
Your father started walking across the cat-walk, clicking the little think in his hand and speaking to the pack of Velociraptors.
Finally, after about a minute, “And, go!”
You smiled wider, “Go dad!” you whispered under your breath.
“That was awes-” Gray began.
“Shhh!” Zach and you hissed at the same time.
“Sorry,” he mumbled.
You glanced around quickly and stood up, “Ok guys, time to go, lets hur-”
“Who are you? You’re not supposed to be- Y/N? What are you doing here? And who are you two?”
You froze and tensed up, “Hey, dad.”
Standing up fully you turned around and grimaced, “Um these two are, um, Claire’s’ nephews. She was wondering if I could, take, them… on… a private-”
“I don’t care if the president wanted you to take someone on a private tour. You know you’re not supposed to be here without my permission and someone to supervise you!”
He turned to Zach and Gray, looking sternly at the both of them, “Now the three of you need to leave right now, got it?”
The two of them shook their heads quickly while you sighed and looked down.
“Now, who are the two of you again?” He asked.
You started answering for them, but was cut off, by a terrified Zach, “I’m a boyfriend- I mean, their boyfriend, I mean, no, I’m not, oh god just shut up, I-”
You looked at him in disbelief, mouth slightly ajar.
“Excuse me?” Owen asked quietly, “What did you just say. Cause it sounded like you just said-”
“He’s my boyfriend, dad, and, it’s been going on for a couple months now and I just didn’t tell you because I knew you would over-react and… I’m sorry.”
You swear you could see the man’s eye twitch, “Wha- I just- why would you- I- Wow.”
You started to worry, you thought that he was maybe having a stroke or a heart attack, or something, “I’m sorry, dad, but I love him and I didn’t know what to do.”
Your father said what you were thinking at the exact same time you thought it.
“You’re grounded.”
Something Heavy
One-Shot: Can you do a one shot where the reader is with Zach and Gray in the back of the truck when the velociraptors are chasing them and idk, the reader almost falls out of the vehicle or whatever while trying to scare away the raptors and Zach saves her and they kiss, idk? There aren’t much Zach imagines, and he’s like, the loml
You basically fell down when the woman named Claire told you and her nephews to get into the back of the truck. Today had been a really long freaking day, mostly involving trying to not get eaten by any number of dinosaurs, and you had just about had enough of it.
You had gotten together and started fighting for your life with the boys when you were stupid enough and tried to investigate a hole in the fence and fell in. Whatever propelled the glass ball you were in wasn’t strong enough to get back up the steep hill so you turned around and went to find another way in, and thats when you saw them, in another ball just across a clearing containing five dinosaurs. You had tried to signal them about the big white one behind them but it was too late. While they slipped out from a hole in the glass you had decided it would be better to stick with them and climbed out of the door and raced after the boys. The three of you ended up jumping off of a small cliff and into a large pool of blue water until whatever kind of dinosaur that was went away.
After surviving that and then the Pterodactyls, you all thought it was best to stick together. And now here you were, all safe and sound in the back of the metal walled truck. You, Zach, and Gray all knew about the plan to use the Raptors to track the white beast and were trying to cram into the tiny window to see what was happening on Claire’s tablet. After a few minutes or so, they found it, and just when it was getting to the good part Claire decided that you were all too young to see what was going to happen next, which was probably for the best.
You and the boys were talking when suddenly the truck doors flew open and a man wearing body armor burst in, “Run! They’re coming, run-” and then he was pounced on by one of Owen’s Raptors and taken away.
All of you started yelling at Claire to get moving and almost fell out when the truck shot off. That didn’t concern the Raptors one bit though, as they used their speed and kept gaining on the moving vehicle.
You and Zach looked at each other, seemingly thinking the same thing, that you needed to defend yourselves. The two of you got up, careful not to fall out, and looked for something heavy. Zach grabbed what looked like an air tank, so you grabbed the second one. At the same time you heaved the objects out of the door, trying to aim for the reptilian figures. They sidestepped them as easily as walking around a pole on a sidewalk.
You both of you slumped down, out of ideas, when Gray yelled form behind you, “Hey! What about these?” He held up what looked like a two pronged taser.
“Yeah!” Zach said, “Turn it on, turn it on!”
“I don’t know how,” Gray replied.
Zach glanced at you, “You ok?”
“I’m fine, just go!”
You looked around for other things to throw and grabbed one of the metal boxes you had been sitting on earlier and was just about to toss it when the truck made a violent jerk to the left, tossing you off balance.
You were just about to fall over and into the grips of an awaiting Raptor when you were yanked back by the hem of your pants and into safety. Zach pulled you in and swung you around into his arms, there was a moment where it was just the two of you, standing there and looking at each other. Then, without even thinking, you smashed your lips into his, being a part of what seemed the longest and best kiss ever. Finally, the two of you parted and looked at each other, “Wow,” he said, “That was, um, it was-”
“Gross for all other parties in the back of this truck,” Gray interrupted, “And really bad timing, now come on!”
Zach glanced at you went and turned the taser thing on, taking out another one of the Raptors. You grabbed the second one and did the same thing with another one, this time making an effort to stay in the truck. When it seemed that all the Raptors were gone for now all three of you slumped down, adrenaline levels dropping back to normal.
Soon, you all met up with Owen and tried to get off the island. That didn’t work too well, but after Claire brought in the T-Rex everything else went pretty smoothly.
After all dinosaurs were gone and everyone was safe and being patched up, you went over to where Zach was sitting, “Hey,” you said, “Thanks for keeping me from being Raptor food.”
He looked up at you, “Oh yeah, um, yo- you’re welcome, I guess? I mean it was- it wouldn’t have been fun for any of us if you became Raptor food. I mean, you’re like, really cool.”
You smiled, “Thanks, you’re really cool too.”
There was a moment of silence, “So,” Zach began, “I was just wondering if, y'know, when we got out of here if you wanted to, get together some time? See a movie or whatever?”
“I would love to,” you said, grabbing a pen someone had left behind and writing your number on his hand. “Once you get a phone again, call me sometime and we can make it a date, I guess.”
He smiled, “Yeah, awesome.”
Wow, you thought, maybe you should fall out of the back of trucks more often.
