*~* Jeff's Group *~*

Hailey and Scott's conversation died down once both started to feel slightly tired. Scott remained next to Hailey as she began to read her book again. It had stopped raining a little while earlier and they had built a fire. Here the two sit, warm and tired. Hailey's head seemed to find Scott's shoulder as she started to fade in and out of the waking world. She still held onto her book and Scott hadn't realized she had fully succumbed to the dreamland world until her book began to slip from her hands.

Scott reached over and laid his jacket on top of her. He had not been one to read, but out of sheer boredom and no one to talk to he picked up her book. He opened "California Diaries: Sunny Diary 3" and began to read it. A little over two hours went by, and Scott had finished the book. Hailey started to wake up.

"Morning Sleeping Beauty," Scott whispered to her as she sat up. Jeff had been by a few times already to check on them. It was nearly 6 AM and they would hopefully be heading back soon. He was watching her. She seemed unsure of where she was. "It wasn't all a dream," he said. "You're here at Mount Horizon."

She took out her ponytail and quickly brushed her hair. "I see," she said with a little yawn. She had turned her head to look at him and her long, shiny hair fell perfectly upon her shoulders. "What time is it?" Hailey dazedly asked him.

Scott looked at his watch. "Five fifty six," he answered her.

Jeff got up to go inform Scott and Hailey it was time to pack up and meet up with the group again. Peter radioed in a few minutes ago.

"Hey guys," Jeff said approaching them. "Start packing up. We leave in 15 minutes to meet up with the others."

"Ok," Scott said with a nod. "We'll be ready," he assured the counselor. Jeff turned on his heel and headed back to where his belongings were, and began to pack up. Quickly Scott and Hailey put away what little of their stuff they had out. Within minutes, they were ready and waiting on Jeff.
