Sophia's POV

I woke up and checked the time. 12:01. My stomach grumbled and my mouth felt dry. I got out of my sleeping bag and went inside to get some water and maybe a snack. I found the the cups and felt a presence behind me when I turned to fill it up.

"You gonna stand there all day and look at me or what?" I asked.

Jack flinched, startled. "H-how did you know I was there?"

I laughed and said mysteriously, "I have my, methods. Why are you up at this ungodly hour?"

"I heard you."

"You did?! Huh. I must be loosing my touch. I'll have to fix that."

"Why are you up at this 'ungodly' hour?" He asked.

"I was hungry and thirsty, so I got up for a snack."

Jack stepped closer to me, and said: "Can I ask you something? While we're alone?"
"That sounds ominous."
"What does that even mean?!"
"Whatever. That sounds creepy."
Jack stepped closer to me, his leg between mine. Oh crap I think. Then, he grabs my chin and kisses me. His arms pull me closer to him. I flail my arms and find purchase on his cheek. I dig in with my fingernails, he gasps and breaks the kiss. 

"W-what was that for?!" Jack cries, clutching his injured cheek.

"There is something called consent," I spat, "you ever heard of it?" 

Jack holds up his hands in defense. "Look I'm sorry. I-I just thought-"

"You didn't think. You didn't even really get to know me, or even ask if I was dating someone! And besides," I glanced around to make sure no one was watching. "I-I'm lesbian."

Jack's POV

"I-I'm lesbian." 

As soon as I heard those two words, I felt my heart breaking. The girl that I had a crush on ever since the first time I saw her in a Sassgods video, was lesbian! I was snapped out of my thoughts when she hissed: "And if you tell anyone, I'll personally murder you in your sleep!" And now he's making death threats

"Do I make my self clear?" Sophia asked threateningly.

"Y-yes." I gulped.

Sophia's POV

WhydidIdothat? He had better keep his word or there will be consequences otherwise. I think as I make my way back to the tent, my mind reeling.

Daniel's POV

I was awoken by the door to Jack and my room slamming shut. I felt and heard Jack flop into the bed with a sigh.

"Is something wrong?" I asked, concerned. 

"Yeah." I was surprised that he actually answered me. Despite me being the closest to him, he doesn't really tell anyone when something's bothering him.

"Would you like to tell me about it?" 

"No, but thanks for the offer." 

"Sleep on it. Your brain will decide what to do." I said, giving the best piece of advice I knew.
