Disclaimer: The first five chapters explain what I do and do not own, so there is no need to repeat myself anymore. X3
This is a continuation of the last chapter that also includes Owen/Izzy hints. I think they are in for a world of hurt. Enjoy!

Day 21: The Smell of Fruitcake
!!
While the unsupervised fruitcake was baking in the oven, another camper duo was making their way to the mess hall to grab some snacks. The two hundred ninety-six pound Owen and crazy redhead Izzy were talking about the winter season as they stepped through the doors.
"Hey, Owen, I just thought about something!" Izzy exclaimed with a grin.
"Oh, what's that?"
"Well," the redhead continued, "you know how most of the couples had already sung and danced together? How about we sing a song together?!"
"That's a great idea, Izzy! Which song should we sing?" Owen asked.
Izzy thought about the question for awhile until she came up with an answer. "Oh, I know! How about that one song with the winter wonderland, and the snowman, and the pretending that it's a clown, and kids knock it down, and-"
"Wait!" Owen shouted out loud, causing Izzy to pause in her explanation. He sniffed the air around him, a wide smile crossing his face as a familiar scent filled his nostrils. Cake…
"What is it, Owen?" Izzy asked the large guy before she also noticed the smell. With a wider grin than before, she pointed to the kitchen door. "It's coming from in there! Maybe somebody is cooking some cake!"
"Yummy cake! Let's go see!" Owen exclaimed excitedly before he and Izzy hurried into the kitchen area. When they stepped inside, there was nobody present but the smell was stronger. That was when Owen noticed that the oven was still on with the timer showing ten minutes. He and Izzy immediately moved to the oven door and peeked inside to see what was being baked. As soon as the 'cake' was seen, they smiled and pulled it out of the oven to take a closer look.
"It looks so delicious! I wonder what kind of cake it is," Owen said as he stared at the marvelous sight before him, a browned tub of dessert with green and red fruity spots mixed with it. Izzy took the dessert in her hands and tried to take a bite out of it. With a hard bite, she yelped in pain when she could not break into the hard exterior.
"Ow ow ow! It's a fruitcake, and a tough one!" Izzy said with a frown. She tossed the fruitcake against the wall, but it bounced off and hit Owen in the head on the way back before landing on the counter.
"Ow! Man, that thing is deadly," Owen said nervously, backing away from the deadly fruitcake.
"Oops! Sorry about that, Owen. Let's get out of here." With a nod, the large guy and crazy girl left the kitchen in dismay. Not long after they were gone, Lindsay arrived in the kitchen and smiled cheerfully as she saw her fruitcake sitting innocently on the counter. Lifting it up onto her arms, she carried it outside to search for her boyfriend.
"Taylor is totally going to love this!"
