Ally's POV

Did he just say he loves me? I think. I come out with it.

"Austin…I…I don't know what to say…I-I do have feelings for you."

He looks at me wordless and I can tell I'm blushing. Trish comes out of the tent and shouts, "Never am I sleeping with Dez again! He kept tossing and turning so much, he slapped me several times!" Then Dez comes out of the tent behind her and says, "Not my fault you keep sleep talking and I don't get any sleep!" We ignore them and make breakfast. I make pancakes and eggs over a fire and we all sit down and eat them. Austin brought pickles for me and I eat two of them in ten minutes. Austin takes two Sharpies from Dez's backpack and hands me one. "The bet." He says. We walk over to Trish and Dez and start drawing their mustaches. They look weird and funny. After breakfast we decide to swim in the lake. I don't want to swim after that little fishing incident so I put on some clean clothes.

Austin and Dez wear their swim trunks and Trish wears a bikini. I sit on the dock while they get in the water. Dez complains it's cold but Trish pushes him in. Austin jumps in and then Trish slides in. Austin swims up to me. "Why aren't you swimming?" He asks. "The fishing incident." I reply. "Come on. You're scared of a fish?" He teases. "No, I'm not scared of that. It's just that-" I get cut of when her grabs my foot and pulls me in the lake. I swim to the surface. "Thanks a lot! It's freezing!" I say with a shiver. "Come on, swim around and you'll get used to it." He takes my hand and we swim around the lake for a while splashing the others.

Swimming in the lake was really fun until I spot a dark shadow in the water. "Austin, what's that…?" I say nervously.

Austin's POV

The shadow is huge. Almost the size of a human. "Ally, get back to the dock." I say to her. "Not with you!" She replies. "Now please! I'll be right behind you!" I say and start pushing her toward the dock. We swim there and Ally jumps from the water and pulls herself onto the dock. "Austin, don't move." She says to me. I look down and the shadow is right under me! "I have too!" I say and jump out and land on the wood. "Wait," Ally says. "Dez give me the fishing pole!" Dez walks over and hands Ally the fishing pole and she casts it on the shadow. "Austin, help me out. When it tugs grab my hand." We wait and then the pole jerks hard and I grab Ally before she can fall in. She reels the line and I help her out and before we know it, we pull out a catfish.

"Nice catch Ally!" I shout. She thanks me and we haul the fish out of the dock, never letting our hands apart.
