Nephews

For Annie, you could picture her as Chloe Grace Moretz or Rowan Blanchard as a 19 year old. I'm going to do Chloe, but you can choose❤️ Instagram- @/senlyyn
Annie's POV
I was finishing off morning training with the raptors when I got a call from Claire. I held the phone up to my ear.
"Hello?"
"Annie, I need a favour."
"Which is?"
"My two nephews are coming in the monorail and should be here in about twenty minutes. Can you pick them up and be their tour guide?"
"Why can't you do it?" I grumbled.
"I have work."
"Ugh, fine. What do they look like?"
"Um... One is middle school aged and one is high school aged." But she sounded doubtful.
"You don't even know how old your nephews are?" I asked-clearly annoyed now.
"Make a sign- their names are Zach and Gray Mitchell-bye." Before I could retort, Claire hung up. I just sighed and hopped in Owen and I's jeep. We drove up to our cabin. Almost immediately, I grabbed a permanent marker and scribbled out a sign that said:
Zach and Gray Mitchell
Once I had finished, and Owen had persuaded me to let him come, I drove us to the monorail station and waited for them to get off. After an eternity of waiting, two boys that looked the age Claire described walked off and I called to them.
"Are you Zach and Gray Mitchell?" I asked.
"Yes!" The younger one exclaimed.
"I'm Zach and this is Gray,"the older one said- not looking up from his phone.
"Nice to meet you." I stuck out my hand but I don't think Zach noticed as he was on his phone-no surprise there. However, Gray accepted it gladly.
"I'm Annie and this is Owen." Owen shook hands with Gray and got a nod from Zach.
"So are you guys from the army?" Zach asked- studying out camo get up.
"He is, I did an army training course but had to discontinue as my brother was in hospital and I had to visit him. We're raptor trainers though." I stated.
"Wow! That's so cool!"said Gray.
"What are raptors?"asked Zach.
"A type of dinosaur you idiot,"I snapped. What? I'm very defensive of my raptors. Zach just flashed a look of hurt and returned to looking at his phone.

We all hopped in the jeep and drove to the visitors centre.
Zach was texting some blonde chic the whole journey. I was puzzled.
"So how old is your brother?" Gray asked.
"He was fourteen,"I corrected him.
"How did he die?" Gray had an expression of sadness on his face.
"A horse-riding accident,"I choked out- shifting uneasily.
"But how?" Owen could tell I was uncomfortable talking about this as he wrapped a protective arm around me. I leaned my head in his shoulder and sighed as I felt my face heat up.
"She doesn't want to talk about it- it happened recently..."Owen explained.

There was a moment of silence until Zach changed the subject.
"So are you and Owen boyfriend and girlfriend?" Zach asked. He was looking at Owen's arm around my shoulder.
"Nah, we just act like we are though,"I chuckled. A look of brief relief showed on Zach's face for a split second.
"So what do you want to do first?" I asked when we were at the visitor centre.
"See the Mosasaurus feeding!" Gray practically yelled- earning a few looks from passer by's.
"Alright then," I chuckled at Gray's enthusiasm. On our way there, Claire came up to Owen and I.
"I need to show you something- come with me?"she whispered.
"What?"
"It's our newest dinosaur." Her voice raised.
"What about Zach and Gray."
"They can stay here." Just then, they walked up.
"Can we come too?"they asked- obviously hearing our whole conversation. Claire opened her mouth to speak but she got a phonecall.
"It's your mother. Yes, yes. No need to check on me! In fact, I'm taking them to a V.I.P dinosaur exhibit!"she got off the phone," C'mon! Let's go see that dinosaur!"
