Working with Chris McClean

Chapter 12: Basic Training

"H-Hey don't look at me like that idiot and just take this" Chris said as he holds up an envelope, looking away blushing. I look at the envelope and takes it from him gently "thanks? well I better get going my flight will fly off without me".

Soon as I turned around, he hugged me from behind causing me blush madly. I turned my head to look at him and see that he was crying a bit. "I'm going to miss you man..." Chris said softly as he looks up at me with his tearful eyes.

I turned around gently and lifted him up as I hug him close "I'm going to miss you too... thank you". Chris blushes a bit red and huffed "h-hey I'm just here to give you that letter okay, I'll send you more letters when you get there anyways". I chuckled softly and put him down gently "I'll send some replies when I get them, pretty boy".

"Last call for Gate 4"  a lady announced in the speakers.

Chris and I look at each other with a small smile, "well that's my cue, see ya soon". "Y-Yeah see ya.." Chris said as he smiles brightly at me, holding back the tears. I ruffles his hair a bit then grab my bags and leave to Gate 4. "Oh Mr. H wait!" Chris yelled as he runs towards me, the lady look at me then at Chris.

"Chris?" I replied, looking down at him.

Chris takes out a small box and handed it to me "I know you don't like big gifts but open it when you get in the plane".

I grab the little box from him and smiled "I will...".

After me and Chris separate and get inside of the plane, I sat down in my seat and look out the window a bit as the plane started flying. I look down at the little box and the letter then decided to open the letter.

"Mr. H,

     For the past few months have been the best time of my life, sure I may get in your nerves a lot but hey at least I had someone to talk to. I hope you like the gift I kinda have to hide it from my babe because of it lmao.

       -𝒞𝒽𝓇𝒾𝓈 𝑀𝒸𝐿𝑒𝒶𝓃"

I tilted my head a bit then open the small box and widen my eyes a bit "he didn't..".

-Flashback ended-

I put on my whistle that has Chris's signature on it then get out of the bathroom and head downstairs to see if the kids are ready to go.

Third POV

"You kids ready to go?" Chef asked as he walks to the front door. Caleb put on his hat as he sticks his tongue out at him. "We're ready Uncle" Callie said, putting her hair in a bun. "Callie wait" Chef said then takes out a small eye patch and handed it to her, "here wear this, it might suit your outfit some more".

"Ohh thanks Uncle Chef" Callie takes the eye patch from him and go to the bathroom to take off the bandages. She then come out of the bathroom wearing the eye patch "Ready Uncle Chef". "Oh my god you look like a whole different person" Caleb said as he looks at her and Callie tilted her head a bit confused.

"Alright, cover your ears Callie" Chef said and Callie covers her ears.

Chef smiles then grab the mic, that his connected to the speakers outside, and clears his throat "Listen up you little cockroaches! I want all campers to report to the Dock of Shame at all hundred hours... THAT MEANS NOW SOLDIERS, NOW!". Caleb grunted a bit annoyed "great, the demon that was hiding inside of Uncle Chef finally came out fun".

"Shut it or I'll make you do one-hundred push ups" Chef said then turn around and head out of the cottage.

Caleb scoffs a bit as he rolls his eyes "why does he pick favorites". Callie look up at Caleb concerned as he put his hand on his hips.
