Disclaimer: The first five chapters explain what I do and do not own, so there is no need to repeat myself anymore. X3
This chapter is a Geoff/Bridgette centric chapter with the song "The Gift" by Jim Brickman, which I do not own. I just changed one word in the song to fit the series, that's all.

Day 7: The Gift of Love
!!
Snow began to fall again, but it was soft enough to still play outside. With the satisfaction of sharing their holiday wishes to their friends, the campers enjoyed the snowy day as long as it was able to last. There were a couple of exceptions to this, though, and their names were Geoff and Bridgette.
While the rest of the campers had their fun outside, the party guy and the surfer chick had decided to relax and stay warm inside of the mess hall since the cabins had little heat. Having blankets provided by Chef Hatchet himself, the couple was seated in front of the heater while being held in each other's arms. Bridgette had fallen asleep not too long ago and had thoughts of happiness and thankfulness to Geoff, those thoughts identical to a song that she heard on the radio back at home…
'Winter snow is falling down
Teens laughing all around
Lights are turning on
Like a fairy tale come true
Sitting by the fire we made
You're the answer when I prayed
I would find someone
And baby I found you…
All I want is to hold you forever
All I need is you more every day
You saved my heart
From being broken apart
You gave your love away
And I'm thankful every day
For the gift…'
Geoff glanced down at his sleeping girlfriend as she lay in his arms, the warmth of their surroundings taking effect as they sat in eternal bliss. Certain thoughts entered the party guy's mind that resembled that of Bridgette's thoughts…
'Watching as you softly sleep
What I'd give if I could keep
Just this moment
If only time stood still
But the colors fade away
And the years will make us gray
But baby in my eyes
You'll still be beautiful!
All I want is to hold you forever
All I need is you more every day
You saved my heart
From being broken apart
You gave your love away
And I'm thankful every day
For the gift…'
Bridgette soon awoke from her sleep and looked up at her boyfriend with a bright grin as the party guy returned the favor. The couple stared into each other's eyes for what seemed like minutes until Geoff finally broke the silence.
"Hey, babe, I've been having these strange thoughts that seem so familiar," Geoff started.
"You have? Me, too!" Bridgette replied. "I think it might be from this winter romance song I heard not too long ago."
"No kidding? Then let's finish it together!" Geoff and Bridgette held each other tighter as they smiled and completed the song of their love.
"All I want is to hold you forever
All I need is you more every day
You saved my heart
From being broken apart…
You gave your love away
I can't find the words to say
That I'm thankful every day…
For the gift…"

This was a sweet chapter to write. ^^ I hope you all liked this Geoff/Bridgette moment, without all of that making out from the series. Heheh.
