So here are the list of event in my story:
Jason goes to summer camp
He becomes friendly with Katie
He begins to idealize her
They go on a hike together
They reach the peak where Katie gets philosophical and Jason just throws rocks until Katie tells him to knock it off
They race down the canyon
They are both really sweaty
They go to a dance
Jason refuses to dance with a different girl
He refuses to dance with Katie
Jason tossed a small rock of the boulder that was parched on the edge of the cliff. He and Katie looked down to the valley at the beautiful red rock vista below.
"Its peaceful up hear," Katie said
"yeah," Jason replied
They had met at a youth leadership camp and were participating in one of the planned hikes. Jason really liked Katie, but was too shy to show it. He threw a slightly bigger rock off the boulder.
"Knock it off. What if you hit somebody?" Katie said
"Sorry," Jason said.
Jason was already walking away.
"No, I have to go to the bathroom right now," he said.
"Come on, there are only a couple of dances left," Katie said.
"That's right, there is no time now, plus I have to go"
"Get back here right now!"
"I have to go to the bathroom," Jason said defiantly, and he walked off.
Katie gave up.
Running downhill. This is dangerous, Jason thought. It was blazing hot, and they were not only trying to keep their balance on the steep, rocky, and uneven trail, but also avoiding all kinds of people coming up and down. Jason ran just fast enough to keep up with Katie, but he did not leave her in the dust. He could have. He might have if it had been his friends from scouts, but this was different. There was something interesting and exciting about running down the hill next to Katie.
