In The best Interest--"Trust 2"

**Here are the groups so both you and I will remember lol...Cole/Mark;Benji/Alison;Katie/Kristin;Nikki/Riley.**

"Okay, first up, Cole and Mark. Cole get up on the ropes first." Peter directed. Cole took one look at the ropes and shook his head. "Are you nuts, Peter?! Those ropes are about an inch thick!" he exclaimed. "Actually four and a half." Sophie said witha smirk. "Haha," Cole siad but he was grinning. "This isn't even fair," he grumbled as he slowly hoisted himself up, balancing himself as Peter, Sophie and Mark took their places. "I won't let you fall. If you give me five bucks," Mark teased as Cole started. "Mark!" the three said unison, "don't talk like that when he's up there, alright?" Sophie said. Mark nodded.

Cole took a deep breath before he started. "That's it, Cole. Trust yourself is the first step." Sophie encouraged him. "Well excuse me, I don't feel safe trusting myself ten feet off the ground on a four inch rope!" he snapped bitterly. "Actually it's four and a half," Katie called. "Would you quit with the actually's?!" Cole exclaimed. "Cole, concentrate on what you're DOING, not htem. Katie..." peter said in a warning voice. Cole rolled his eyes and continued. When he get to the end, he jumped down..and tripped over the rope. Everyone burst out laughing except Peter and Sophie. "Hey!" they snapped. They helped Cole up; "Are you okay?" Cole, too, was laughing. "Sure, I meant to do that!" he said and took his position as Mark climbed up on the rope. Mark did it simply, jumping down and smirked at Cole.

Cole rolled his eyes as Benji and Alison made their way to the ropes. Benji carefully climbed the ropes. Peter was surprised at how balanced he was. Quickly and carefully, he made it over the ropes. It was Alison's turn. Peter almost didn't let her go. She was so small..SHe looked like a porcelin doll. He was afraid-Something interupted his thoughts. As ALison struggled to get up, she had passed out.

Sophie ran to her. She started hurrying out of the woods with Peter following. "I'll take her you stay here, I don't think you should trust teh four who haven't gone yet," Sophie said and Peter walked back, just in time to see Kristin hanging upside down on it. "Ooh! Ooh! Ooh-ee-ohh eehaa aa!" she croaked, imitating a monkey. "KRISTIN!" Peter snapped. Katie jumped and turned around guiltily. "Uh, oops," they said simontaneoulsy. Kristin dropped down and dusted herself off, grinning cheekily. "The evil forces made me do it." "Right. Now how about you do it the right way?" Peter suggested. "Sure." she answered.

Kristin went first, climbing onto the rope. "I don't trust Katie, Peter," she whined. "That's the objection of this exercise, kiddo," was his remark. Katie smirked at her. "Don't worry. I won't grab your ankles and make you fall." she said innocently. "HAHA!" Kristin snapped. She sat down before climbing off and Katie got up. "Revenge is...sweet!" Kristin said, grinning at Katie. "Don't even!" Katie whined. Katie quickly did it, almost falling, and jumped off.

'Are we in trouble?" Katie asked Peter. "Do you think you're in trouble?" Peter asked. "Well, from experience, I'd say yeah." "Right again." Peter answered

Riley and Nikki walked over. Riley was so small that Peter had to help him up a little. However, being small helped, and it was simple for him to practically coast over the rope. He jumped down and smiled a little at Nikki which cheered her up a little. Nikki climbedup the rope and slipped a little. Just as Peter was getting ready to catch her, sher egained her balance. Notall the way at the end, she climbed off. "Why didn't you finish?" Peter asked gently. "I was gonna fall." she mumbled, "so what's the point?"

"We'll talk later." Peter said, shaking his head. "Okay, guys, head back."
