Chapter
5
The inside of the cabin was dusty and looked more run
down than the outside. Scott and Stefan both looked like they were considering
going back outside. However, Luke and Laura stood staring at each other. They
were both thinking about a cabin they had stayed in years ago.
"Are you thinking about that little cabin we found when we first left Beecher's Corners?" Luke whispered to
her.
"Yes," she said with a smile not taking her eyes off him.
Luke leaned in and kissed her gently. Laura wrapped her arms around his neck.
They became lost in the kiss and forgot Scott and Stefan were there.
"Well it wouldn't qualify as a four-start hotel, but it's dry,"
Stefan said looking around with disgust.
Scott looked around and found some wood. He carried some back to the fireplace.
He glanced at Luke who was still kissing Laura.
"Hey Spencer, how about seeing if you can get a fire started?" Scott
said.
Luke and Laura continued to kiss, oblivious to the fact that Scott was
speaking. Stefan had noticed them too.
"I think that is exactly what Luke is trying to do," he said to
Scott. "I'll give you a hand."
About fifteen minutes later, Luke and Laura broke apart. They looked around and
saw that Scott and Stefan were sitting in front of the fireplace, trying to
keep their back to them.
Laura blushed realizing that they had seen them. Luke took her hand and led her
to the fireplace. They sat down with Scott and Stefan.
"Nice of you two to join us," Scott said giving Luke a dirty look.
"You're welcome," Luke said. He noticed the look Scott gave him. He
put his arm around Laura and gave Scott a smile.
Stefan sensed trouble brewing between the two of them and decided to change the
subject. "It's getting late. I think we should check out the rest of this
place and figure out where we are going to sleep."
Laura realized what he was doing. "I think that's a great idea," she
said standing up.
Reluctantly Luke and Scott stood up and they all walked up the stairs.
