"So why was Elliot Stabler sneaking in the cabin late last night?" Fin asked with a grin on his face.
The boys were walking to their next activity, and many of them heard that Olivia and Elliot were hanging out on the dock last night.
"I was taking a walk" he said.
"And there was a rabbit who ate my new shorts" Fin said "What really went on?"
"Nothing" he snapped "I already told you that I just took a walk."
"I believe that our friend is in denial" John said.
"Denial is a very sad thing to see" George said, half serious and half joking.
"I remember when I was in denial about liking a girl" John said "But then again, she didn't know that I existed."
"No wonder why John Munch is a geek."
"That's not funny, Fin..."
"Will the three of you cut it out? You're annoying me..."
Elliot walked ahead of them, while the three boys wondered why Elliot was in such a bad mood.
Alex joined Casey on the beach, but she noticed that Casey wasn't her normal self.
"Are you all right?" Alex asked. Casey nodded as Alex sat down next to her new friend. She took out a book and started reading, when she heard someone crying. She looked up and saw that Casey had tears in her eyes.
"Casey, something is bothering you" Alex said "You don't have to talk to me, but I have a feeling that you should."
Casey looked towards the lake and didn't say anything. Alex went back to reading her book when Casey started to talk.
"I didn't mean to be cruel to you" Casey said quietly "I should have given you a chance before I went off on you and hate you."
Alex looked at her and put her book down next to her.
"I have a feeling that your actions aren't the only thing that's making you emotional like this."
"If you knew me, you would know that I'm never the one who attacks a fellow peer" Casey said quietly "I didn't expect that I would make friends here so quickly. I'm the one at my school that no one likes and
the one who's always picked on. I'm the one who sits alone during lunch and I always wonder if that's ever going to change..."
Casey started crying when Alex put her arm around her to comfort her. At least Alex knew why Casey was so mean to her; she wanted to know what it was like to be something different.
"Okay, so what happened?"
The four girls were sitting at their usual dinner table. They heard about Olivia's meeting with Elliot the night before.
"I don't know" Olivia said "We were hanging around on the dock laughing about something, and then he kissed me."
"What?"
Melinda and Alex were shocked when Olivia told them that they kissed.
"I knew it!" Melinda said "Actually, Casey and I knew that the two of you would make some sort of connection!"
"What's going to happen with you two now?" Alex asked.
"I don't know...I think that we can only be friends."
"You can't be just friends if he kissed you Liv!"Melinda said "If he kissed you, that means that you're dating!"
"You're crazy" Olivia said as she shook her head "I don't want to date him. We only have a week here...how is that relationship going to survive?"
No one said anything as Casey got up from her seat, threw her tray away, and walked out of the dining hall.
"Is everything okay with her?" Olivia asked.
"She had an emotional day" Alex replied "She'll be back to herself by tomorrow."
"I really hope so" Melinda said "I've never seen someone so depressed."
"Does anyone want to play bullshit?"
Elliot, Fin, George and John sat down on the cabin floor and started dealing the cards.
"Okay John, you start" Elliot said.
"I can't, I don't have the Ace of Spades" John replied as he looked through his cards.
"Then who has it?"
"I do" George said "One Ace."
"John?"
"One Two."
"Two threes" Fin said.
"One Four"
"Three Fives..."
"Bullshit!" John said. George showed him the three fives and John made an angry face that only made the rest of them laugh.
"One Six" John grumbled.
"Two Sevens"
"One Eight"
"One Nine"
"Two Tens" John said.
"One Jack"
"Bullshit!"
John, Fin, and Elliot looked at George.
"Wow, the Chinese boy actually said a swear word" Fin said as he showed his jack "Nice try, but you lose."
As they continued the game, John tried talking to Elliot about what happened the night before.
"Two threes...So Elliot, be honest, what happened on that dock?"
"Nothing Happened...Uh, one five."
"Bullshit!" Fin shouted.
"Nice try, but it's a real five"
"I wasn't talking about your damn card" Fin said "You're bullshitting the fact that something happened with you and Olivia on that dock last night!"
"Okay, fine. I'll tell you what happened" Elliot said "All we did was kiss."
"You kissed?" George asked.
"Wow, Elliot Stabler actually kissed a girl?" Munch asked.
"Shut up John."
"So what does that mean?" Fin asked "Does that mean anything?"
"It means that I have feelings for her" Elliot replied "But I haven't seen or talked to her all day."
"Maybe it was an awkward kiss..."
"John!"
John kept his mouth shut as he dealt the cards.
"It might mean that she's not interested" Fin said "You better talk to her soon."
"I'll talk to her tomorrow."
