"Dale!" Lex cried.
"What?" She asked getting up.
"We need help! The wall on the shelter is tipping over! If we don't tend to it-"
"It will break the walls aside it.." She finished. Lex nodded. They both rushed to the shelter. Finding Jackson holding up as many walls as he possibly can.
"Jackson what happened?" She asked holding them up.
"They just started falling..I think its cause the bark itsn't strong enough." He said gripping onto the ends. Daley pushed herself under the walls and pushed it back into place. Jackson used his arms to place it back together. The walls were stirdy.
"Will this happen again?" He asked.
"I dunno..maybe."
She sighed. "Lex?"
He stood there rubbing his chin.
"Maybe there's a way
we can add more tree bark to make it more thick?" He asked.
Daley nodded.
"It better said then done," He informed.
Daley laughed and hugged her brother.
"Can you go get
Nathan?" He asked, "You guys are gonna have to get more
bark."
Dale was on it. She rushed over to the camp fire and
grabbed Nathan, then got started on getting tree bark. Taylor at the
time was relaxing by the beach. And Melissa and Jackson were talking
a bit by the fire. Eric was off walking along the beach side.
"Okay Lex."
Daley said dropping the trees, Lex counted the load she and Nathan
brought back.
"It's good Daley, but could you bring back one
more?" He asked kindly.
"Sure Lex." She said turning from Nathan, Nathan would do whatever Daley did really..
Lex helped make the fire more effective. With Jackson and Melissa talking around it.
"Do you think Nathan has a good chance of telling Daley..?" She whispered.
"Maybe...If he could actually be honest about it," He said smiling. Melissa elbowed him.
...20 minutes later.
"Here ya go Lex." She said throwing the tree down.
"Thanks. Jackson can you help me take these to the shelter?" He asked. Jackson got up and lift two tree stumps for him. Lex fallowed him to the shelter.
Daley looked around. bored and curiouse. She decided to take a walk along side the beach. Running into Eric.
"Hey," She said waving. Eric smiled.
"Hey,"
"What're
you doing?"
"Walking,"
"Why?"
"Because,"
"Cause...?"
She asked sounding even more curiouse.
"Just..because..?" He said confused.
Daley nodded.
"Okay well you gonna
fish?"
"Sudden questions..?" He asked surprised.
"Eric...is there something on your mind your not telling us?" She asked. He turned to her suddenly.
"Why do you ask..?" She asked. "Heh...Why does anyone ask!?"
"Hey hey..." She said placing her hand on his shoulder. Eric looked awkwardly confused.
"We're just worried
about you...Ya know, im not the only one. Melissa and Taylor are the
same."
"Taylor...? Psh, yeah right Taylor totally hates
me at the moment." He said walking ahead. Daley rolled her eyes
and caught up to Eric,
"Eric...Listen," She said twirling him around.
"I..I know sometimes I can come out alittle strong..And, I..c-can be controling. But that doesn't mean I don't care." She said,
Eric turned away.
"What's going on with me is none of your buisness.." He said shoving her out of the way.
Daley stood there shocked.
"E--Eric!" She yelled.
