The woods

Part 31

Dom's POV

'Ollie should be back soon.' I say, reassuring Zosia.
She nods and gets her book out, stretching her legs across her bed.
He has been about half an hour so he should be back fairly soon.

Ollie's POV

'Congratulations Oliver. You have won all three starters for your meal later.'
I smile and wave goodbye to Serena and Guy before making my way back to camp.
'I'm back!' I about, about ten metres away from camp.
I see Zosia put her book down and get up.
'Yay how was it?' She smiles, hugging me.
I hug her back and look down into her eyes.
'It was great. I got all three!' I tell them, Zosia still in my arms.
I explain what happened to her whilst her hands are sloped around my neck and my hands are around her hips.
'I guess I'm next!' She nervously giggles.
'It wasn't too bad, although there wasn't any bugs in mine.' I confess.
She looks down and I see she is scared.
'Hey,' I say lifting her chin up, 'it will be ok.'
She nods and hugs me again and I help her pack her rucksack.

Zosia's POV

'Good luck!' I hear Dom shout as I exit the camp.
I turn back and wave.
Ollie mouths 'you'll be fine.' to me.
I smile and turn around.
My face fills with worry.
I reeaally don't want to do the eating challenge.
But then again I don't want to do the extreme heights either.
I sigh, realising I'll have to do one or the other and that the quicker I get there, the quicker it'll be over.
I finally reach the clearing and am greeted by my dad and Serena.
'Ah Zosia.' Serena smiles. 'Are you ready?'
No.
I'm not ready.
Don't look so smiley.
Why don't you try.
Won't be so smiley then will-
'Zosia?' She says.
'Yes of course!' I fib.
I am scowling inside as she spins the wheel around.
'Looks like your doing the extreme heights.'
I though this is what I'd rather do to start off with but now I'm realising eating would be a lot less terrifying.
My stomach tips upside down as a harness is attached to me and I'm given a safety briefing.
My breathing gets heavy and I feel light headed.
'O-ok-k.' I slur, starting to loose consciousness.
'Zosia? Zosia!' I faintly hear my dad yell.
Then it all went black.
