"Daley, you've been sitting here for almost three hours, when are you gonna step away from the camp?" Jackson asked. "What your doing, it isn't healthy."
"I'll step away once my brother comes home." She replied.

"But you don't know when that'll be," He mentioned softly.

"J-Just..Don't worry about me, okay?" She said angrily. "Go goof off with Nathan..or something.."
"Nathans worried about you too." He whispered. Making Daley shiver.

"Jackson, enough." She said immediantly. "Go away,"

Jackson paused. Taking a few steps back.

"Just so you know, we all, including me, miss him," He stated. Turning his head away.

"Lex, is important to me.." She began. "I don't know why...he just is..It's almost like..He was the only thing that kept me happy..Ever since-"
A few seconds of silence.

"-Just..Ever since then." She finished.

"That's understanding." He said with a smirk. " It's like, you two haven't been together for a while, and now. It's like you two have known each other your whole life."
Daley turned away.
"Right?" Jackson asked lifting her chin up.

Daley smiled.
"It's how I feel the same for you, Taylor, Melissa, Nathan and Lex and Eric. Your my family." He said again.

Daley looked into his blue eyes.

"You're right Jackson.." She said.

Jackson twirled around, heading down to the beach,

"But..That doesn't mean I can still worry?" She asked a couple inches away.

Jackson turned his body half away.

"No, cause I wont stop worrying about him either." He said. And before Daley knew it, he was already at the beach.

Daley sighed, and decided to keep her mind of LEx while she did some laundry.

She knew how Taylor liked her's..

Meanwhile away from camp. It was getting late, Eric and Lex decided to stop for the day.

"Have you been keeping track?" Lex asked. "Of how long we've been gone?"
"Not really..Have you?"
"If I knew I wouldn't be asking you.." Lex sighed, and sat back on his book bag.

Eric kept tending to Abby's needs. Placing a clean rag on her arm.

"How're you feeling?" Eric whispered.

"N..Fine.." Abby moaned. sitting up against the tree stump. "How's it look?"
Eric examined the hole carefully.

"Well it's not to bad now..The bleeding's stopped." He said softly. Abby nodded.

"I never..got to thankyou.." She said turning away.

"It's no problem, Family sticks together right?" He said with a smile.

Oh how she loved his smile.

"Right." She said. "Remind me to thank Lex as well."

The two sat and looked at each other awkwardly. They started moving in alittle closer. It was so dark out they weren't sure where they were at. Suddenly, Abby stop's. And lay's her head down on Eric's chest, and shut's her eye's.

Not what Eric was planning, but close.

The two teen's began to dream about their previous adventure these past few days.

Everyone back at camp was already asleep from all the hard work..
