Looking In The Eyes Of Love
A "Higher Ground" Fan Fic

Chapter 7: Nights For Lovers
David ran after Daisy and caught up to her before she reached her cabin. He pulled her off to the side by her elbow and she willingly followed after him. She knew that he was going to bring up something about the night before, and did not know what she could say to explain herself.
"Dais, I think we need to talk," he started.
Looking up, she saw that Shelby had stopped to wait for her, but motioned that she could go on without her and Shelby gave her a comforting smile before continuing on up the stairs. Daisy turned back to David, and looked into his eyes. As opposed to the joking and "charismatic" person he usually seemed to be, he seemed to be very serious and she saw that.
"David, I..."
He interrupted her, and she was thankful for that, as she did not know what she was about to say next. "I don't want to hear excuses. I just want to you know, that I still feel the same way, and probably will for a while. I don't want to loose you, not the way I want our relationship to go, or as a friend. I think you should take your time. You are a person, that thinks head-wise. Sometimes that is good, others, I wish you would use your heart, but now, I want you to do what you feel is best. Just, please, don't push me away."
Daisy felt like she was being ripped in two different directions. She did like David a lot, but she was not sure if she wanted a relationship like that, at least not for now. Nodding, she said "Don't worry. No more pushing, just reaching."
They smiled at each other and he pulled her into a hug. "Don't rush," he told her, just as Sophie was walking up.
"Bed you two. Lights out are in ten-minutes." Startled, they headed off in their different directions, each running up their own stairs, as Sophie stood at the bottom, with a concerned look on her face. "Oh, more couples. Just great..." she said, her voice trailing off as she headed back to the lodge.
The door pushed open in the girls' cabin and Daisy peered her head through the door with a smile on her face. Everyone looked up, pausing in their rush to get ready for bed.
"Well, well," Shelby said while folding some clothes on her bed. "I never knew your face was capable of possessing a smile that wide."
Daisy returned the comment with a small smirk before grabbing some clothes to change into and heading into the bathroom. When she returned, the others were climbing into their beds.
"Now, I could be wrong, but did you just come from talking with David? I mean...David?!" questioned Juliette. Daisy nodded back at her before setting her head on the pillow and preparing for sleep. "This can't be good..." said Juliette nearly inaudible. Nearly.
"No, he's not that bad, really. And how would you know that with your lips always to Auggie's, huh? Besides, all that happened was that he said he wanted me to take my time."
Looking over at her friend, Shelby gave a silent laugh before closing her eyes, waiting for someone to turn off the light. Once everyone was settled in, Juliette reached up and switched off the lamp nearest her and the room went dark.
Juliette slept with a smile on her face the whole night, completely disgusting Shelby. How could anyone be so happy ALL the time? she asked herself. Shelby thought for a while of her and Scott, hoping the reveries would bring happy dreams. Daisy's own fantasies kept her night full of thoughts, thinking about what she was going to do with David. He was allowing her to take her time, but how long would he actually keep that promise? Next to Daisy, Riley rested on her bed, in some mind, happy that she was in a new place, away from the life she used to live, but still longing for the love and comfort she was forced leave so abruptly.
