Sorry I took so long I was having a case of writer's block. Please tell me what you think.
Figures in the Night Part11
Shelby walks back to the lodge confused. Husband? This guy is clearly a psycho.
"Thank you, Shelby." Sophie says taking the wood from her.
Shelby slowly walks back to sit with Scott.
"Hey, something wrong?" He asks Shelby looking at her worried face.
"No, no, I'm ok." She tries to say as calmly as she can.
Married? Who is this guy, what is she not telling me?

"Ya know what Daisy?" David asks shoving Ezra out of the way.
"What?"
"I can chop wood." He smirks at her.
"Good for you." Daisy tells him trying to make him go away.
"Wanna watch?"
"No thanks."
"C'mon," He says staring at Ezra. He looks back at Daisy. "Maybe you'll learn a thing-or two." He says deviously.
"She said no." Ezra cuts in. "Leave her alone."
"What do you know?" David glares at him. "I for one happen to know that she doesn't like you."
"Oh yeah?" Daisy says. "What makes you think that?"

"Oh!" Juliette complains. "I got a stain on my shirt. Now I've got nothing to wear."
"You can't even see it Jules." Kat tells her.
"Well, I can, it's bothering me."
"You worry too much." Shelby says.
Juliette gives her a look.Daisy sits back not wanting to get in the middle. Sophie knocks on the door and walks in. "Just me."
"Hi." Kat says.
"Get ready. We're going on the quest early today."
Shelby groans.
"Pack your tents and everything else. Make sure you have enough for a week." Sophie explains.
"That long?" Daisy asks.
"Well, Peter did say this is an important quest."
"So what are we gonna do anyway?" Shelby sounds almost interested.
"You'll find out soon enough." Sophie smiles.

"Ok, guys. We're gonna go now. Does everyone have everything? Now's your chance to get it." Peter tells everyone.
No one moves.
"Ok, then. Let's go."
Everyone takes their bags and follows Peter on the trail.
"So where is this place?" Scott asks.
"Oh, about 15 miles." Peter says.
"What?" Shelby gives him a small groan.
"You'll be fine."
***
They walk about 5 miles and they set out their tents. They have group around the campfire.
"Are we done yet?" David asks bored.
Peter looks at him. "Yeah, I guess so. All of you better get to bed. We've got another long day ahead of us."
There is a murmur of groans and they all get up.
"Goodnight." Scott whispers to Shelby.
"Night." She smiles and gives him a quick kiss.
***
Daisy hears an owl hoot. It was late, probably 2:00 or 3:00. She can't fall asleep. She closes her eyes.
"Daisy!" Hunter whispers. He is standing in front of her tent.
Daisy jolts up from her sleeping bag knowing who it is. She opens her tent and walks out. "How did you get here?" She demands.
"I have my ways."
"Well, go away!" Daisy is getting angry.
"Shhh, you're being too loud! Wouldn't want to wake your little friends up, would you?" Hunter smirks at her.
"What do you want Hunter?"
"Only you, my love."
Daisy glares at him. "One of these days, I'm gonna get rid of you for good."
"You mean get rid of your husband?" Shelby walks up behind her. "You have some explaining to do."
