Later
"Did you guys go swimming?" Daley asked, upon the arrival of two wet, dripping bodies at camp.
"No, we went ice skating. Yeah, we went swimming," replied Jackson with a little attitude.
"Are you kidding?! Do you know how dangerous that is?!" exploded Daley.
"Chill. It's only swimming and the water's amazing. You've gotta try it," said Melissa. She was always clam, but she never answered anyone back. Unless, she thought that something wasn't fair, or in this case, someone was way over-reacting.
"Chill? Chill?! You guys were supposed to be working! Not having fun! This isn't a vacation," screamed Daley.
"Day, stop," said Lex tugging at her shirt.
"Daley, we were just relaxing. Calm down. And go yell at Eric and Taylor, they're not doing anything," Jackson said.
"Daley, chill! We did our jobs! And no fun?! What's that about? We get this isn't a vacation, but relaxing and having fun we can still do!" yelled Melissa.
"Excuse me?! I am the leader here! So you have to follow my rules! New rule- just work, no relaxing or breaks unless you get my permission!" Daley shot back, loudly.
"Yeah, right! Screw you!" said Melissa, walking away. Jackson glared at Daley and followed Melissa.
"That new rule, no way. I agree with Melissa, for the first time since third grade," said Eric, parting, but in a different direction.
"I agree with Eric's first smart comment. Eric, wait up!" said Taylor, and with that she left.
"Day, that was harsh," said Lex.
"Are you kidding? Did you hear them?" shot back Daley, red in the face from yelling.
"That wasn't fair. They just wanted to have some fun. Melissa does her job and whatever's leftover and Jackson fishes and does so much cutting and dragging wood back to camp, it's physical abuse to his body. I hate to say this, but all you do is ration and boss people around," Nathan told her gently.
"Day, Nathan's right. They work the most and the hardest. Melissa evens lugs water and charges batteries when Eric and Taylor don't. You really should have yelled at Eric and Taylor for never doing there jobs," said Lex, quietly in fear of making her angry.
"And that rule, it's stupid. I mean, your turning into a dicatater," said Nathan, before he and Lex walked away.
With Jackson and Melissa
"What was that back there?" asked Jackson. He and Melissa were sitting on the ground, Jackson leaned against a tree and Melissa, head on his lap.
"Did you hear her? I mean, that's cruel. We finished our jobs, we're allowed to relax?" she said.
"Yeah. I was impressed by your attitude," he said
