"Have you seen my camera?"
Blake with his frustration quickly pulled everything stuff's together. Throwing them messily into his truck, even rushing Wade to be faster. While Dalton was more worried about his missing camera as he asked him but Blake only rolled his eyes at him before picking up another load of items.
"Nick? You see it?" He asked Nick this time who was carrying the folded chairs in one arm while the other he was smoking his cigarette. "Don't know dude. Like I give a shit about it." Dalton let out a sigh, knowing that at this point he couldn't find it. He would have to let it go.
Meanwhile with the girls. Carly is shrouding down doing her business. While Paige and Lilian weren't far. Lilian helped Paige tie her hair half up while the girl placed some lip gloss on her lips. "So how's you and Wade? Talked some more?" Page asked, her words coming out funny as she was more focused on her makeup.
"As if. We're just in different places right now." Carly jumps up, fixing her pants and herself before continuing, "He hasn't guilty trip me for going. So I can't just guilt trip him for staying." She let out a sigh, clearly wanting to talk with Wade about their situation or relationship but she just doesn't know how to bring it up.
"Maybe you both should just find an in-between, you know?" Lilian spoke, giving out her opinion for once to Carly. The two had never been closed, and Lilian could tell Carly never understood her or maybe she didn't like her. But anyway, Lilian always kept quiet and agreed with whatever Carly said. "Like come down every weekend. Set a scheduled call or something. It'll work out."
"Yeah but-" Carly was about to respond. Denying Lilian before the sudden wind had picked up. Not only that, it brought the horrid smell back from last night. "It's back," Lilian mutters, covering her nose and mouth with the color of her shirt. Breathing from her mouth too.
"Oh. My. God. There's the smell again." Paige had this disgusted look, holding herself from wanting to vomit at the stench. "I think it's coming from over there." Carly had looked around, trying to locate the smell. "Yeah let's follow it," Paige replied sarcastically but her tone showed how she was distressed with the idea. "Come on. I just want to see what it is."
Paige and Lilian shared a look, they both agreed that going closer to the smell was a terrible idea. But at the same time, they didn't have it in their heart to leave Carly alone in the woods no one knows about. "It'll be quick. Blake would be calling us soon." Lilian tried to reason.
"Why?" Letting out a defeated sigh, Paige nods her head. Gesturing Lilian to go after Carly first as she would follow behind.
Back to the boys, everything was set up. All packed and back into Blake's truck. Dalton was still anxious that he couldn't find his camera but at this point, he just chose to give up. He's been looking and it wasn't anywhere. So he decided to drink his sadness with a cold beer. Nick sat on Blake's truck smoking his cigarettes as his eyes would constantly fall into the woods, waiting for Lilian to be back.
While at that, Wade was in his car trying to start it but there was this weird noise. Awful too, indicating something had happened. "What?" He mutters, pushing the front of his car up to see the gears and engines. As Blake gathers around him in confusion too. "No way?" / "Are you kidding? This is brand new." He pulled out the fan belt of the car, showing it to Blake who frowned at it.
It was clear someone had cut at it, it was a straight clean cut. It wouldn't just have happened like that. Throwing it in frustration, while Dalton tried to hide his laughter by looking away. Feeling better that he wasn't the only one in a shitting mood. While Nick didn't bother hiding his as he full-on laughed at Wade's face.
On the other side, Carly led the two girls further into the woods and closer to the nasty smell. "I can't believe you're making us do this. We didn't even bring any perfume you know?!" Paige stomps her feet, irritated yet still following behind the two. "Come on. It won't be long." Carly mutters, only finding Paige's annoyance amusing to her.
"I'm going to throw up," Lilian said, pushing her nose together, not letting herself breathe through there at all. "Can we just like. Take a breather here." She coughs up, hearing this Carly stops and looks back in concern.
Despite being in a relationship with an ex-football star and troublemaker. Lilian wasn't an active girl; she was a home person. She was the girl who would skip gym with excuses and rather spend more time in the library. She was fragile and weak, but she didn't show it. Only those close to her knew. So, walking closer to a rotten smell with her nose closed causing these annoying thumps in her head due to the lack of air. She just needs a second to breathe.
Carly walked closer to her, worried yet didn't say anything. While Paige had her arms around Lilian asked if she was fine. "I'm-" just as Lilian was about to reply, she took one step back. And that step had caused her to fall down the hill. Everything started blurring quickly.
"Lil!" / "Lilian!"
She fell, tumbling over the branches and leaves before she stopped. With both her arms out, if went deep into a pit of rotten animal carcasses. It reaches to her elbow, as she struggles to keep her chin from touching it. She squirmed as tears pulled in her eyes. Bones, blood, meat, everything horrible was all she could see. "Nick... Dalton..."
"LILIAN!" Paige's screams along with Carly's pants reach her ears. But Lilian couldn't move. The position of her body made it impossible. If she wanted to, she would have to fall all into the pit. "P-Paige!" She tries her best to hold her cries and whimper. "I'm stuck!"
"Wait there, Lillian!" / "NICK! DALTON!" Carly tried to get Lilian to calm down as she too would be crying if she was in her spot while Paige yelled and screamed for the boys. Mostly for Nick and Dalton.
Lilian moved her hand, hoping to somehow get out too but she got only deeper in. Her chin was now touching the flesh and blood. But when her eyes fell on a hand that reached out from the pit. With maggots and crows pecking at it she screams. Crying. "NICK!! HELP ME! PLEASE!"
