RECAP

  "Lauren, I've never stopped loving you." Luke said as Lauren let out another few cries on his shoulder and hugged him back.

RECAP OVER

CARA - 1:30pm

"Where the fuck are they?" Cara said half to herself and half to Courtney as she rubbed her face in frustration. Courtney shrugged as she sighed and looked back towards the woods.

"Maybe someone should go look for them." Courtney said. Cara grabbed her arm. "No! Any time some fools go off they're gonna go missing too. Stay. Put." Cara demanded.  Courtney sighed again and sat back down on the edge of the van.

"Lads, I think we're gonna have to start moving. Its been ages. When they come back down they'll know which direction to go." Jeremy said as he swung the keys around in his hand. "Yeah he's right. We really need to get a move on. We're wasting our spring break." Josh said.

Cara sighed. "I guess yere right. Lets go." She said as she got up. Daniel walked over and put his arm around her shoulder. "Dont worry, we'll all regroup by tomorrow." He said quietly.

"Pinky promise?" Cara said as she held out her pinky.

Daniel smiled and locked his pinky onto hers.

"Pinky promise."

LAUREN & LUKE - 1:34pm

Lauren and Luke sat there for a while talking about the past and all the things they used to do together as a group or just the two of them.

"I wonder if they're gonna get here soon. I wonder if we made the right choice." Lauren sighed. "We did make the right choice. You never know, we could still be back there in the woods going back the wrong way. Its good we're moving forward." Luke said as he looked down at the ground. Lauren felt like what he said had more meaning behind it, but she didn't bother asking as she sighed and nodded.

"We should get a move on too." Luke said as he looked down at Lauren. Lauren groaned again as she got up and rubbed her eyes. "I'm still sooo tired though." She complained as she stretched out. Luke got up as well and smirked as he bent down and picked Lauren up by her legs so she was now dangling over his shoulder down his back.

"OMG Let me down pleeease!" Lauren begged as she attempted to kick her legs but he had a strong grip on them. He ignored her.

"Oh c'mon please! Your gonna let me go and I'm gonna fall on my gorgeous 5 AM face." Lauren shouted as she started to hit his back. He didnt say anything again as he chuckled.

"Ohhh Luke c'mon I already feel dizzy here upside down." Lauren complained. He laughed. "If you dont stop complaining I'm going to smack you." Luke said with a tint of cheekiness in his voice.

"Wait wha-"

"LUKE!" Lauren screamed as she laughed when he hit her ass. "Oh my God you're so unpredictable sometimes." Lauren laughed. "Is that a bad thing?" He asked.

"Not at all." Lauren smiled, all though he couldn't see it.

THE RV VAN - 2:12pm

"HEEEEAVE! HO!" Cara and peyton both shouted as everyone pushed the van. "I cant believe this is actually working!" Daniel exclaimed as he beamed at everyone, and especially Cara.

"I'm already exhausted like." Courtney announced after they had moved the van only a few metres. "I feel like we're gonna go no where like this." Talia said. "GUYS have hope! If Lauren and Luke were here they would give out to you lot who have no hope. That's what got us through the night! Now c'mon, we need to do this as fast as possible." Cara scolded them as they all continued pushing.
