"WHAT ON EARTH IS GOING ON HERE?" shouted a voice, a familiar voice.

Nate groaned and tried to sit up but something was weighing him down, a person. A familiar person. His eyes fluttered open' Caitlyn.

"Morning Uncle Brown," he mumbled.

"Want to tell me why Miss Gellar is in your cabin?" asked his Uncle.

"I couldn't sleep last night. I gather she couldn't, because I went for a walk at around midnight I think, and I found her asleep on the dock. She was freezing, I didn't want to wake the other girls by trying to get her back into her cabin so I brought her here. And nothing happened. I fell asleep," explained Nate.

"Well you certainly look more refreshed then you have past mornings," said Brown.

"That's all because of Caitlyn. Every night if you can't find Caitlyn at home, she's at mine and if you can't find me at home, I'm at hers," explained Nate. "We're like dependable on each other for a good night's sleep," he added.

"So you're best friends who sleep in the same bed?" asked his Uncle. "On a regular basis," he added.

"Um we're girlfriend and boyfriend who have slept in same bed for the last 2 years, and been together 3 years," cringed Nate knowing Brown was not going to like the fact he hadn't told him.

"You two have been going out for 3 years and you haven't told me," queried Brown.

"Um no," admitted Nate a sheepish smile gracing his face.

Caitlyn starts to stir and Nate looked down at her. And in that moment Brown saw the love Nate held for Caitlyn in his eyes.

"Hey mate I'm gunna go. I only came cuz you hadn't shown up for breakfast and no one had seen Caitlyn. I'm not saying it's ok but other than your brothers and Caitlyn's cabin mates no one else should know. About sharing a cabin at night," said Brown raising to his feet.

"Ok Uncle Brown," murmured Nate.

As the door shut behind him, Caitlyn's eyes fluttered open.

"Who were you talking to?" she asked groggily.

"Uncle Brown," Nate answered with a smile and kiss to her forehead.

"Oh god, are we in trouble?" asked Caitlyn.

"Nah," smiled Nate shaking his head. "We're just not to let anyone else apart from your cabin mates and my brothers are to know that we are now sharing a cabin at night," explained Nate.

"He said that?" asked Caitlyn excitedly.

"Aha," murmured Nate lowering his lips to Caitlyn's unaware that company was about to come through the door.

"Ahem," a voice interrupted them moments later.

And they looked up to see their friends crowded in the door. The time of truth was upon them.
