*Key’s POV*

My eyes fluttered open slowly. I was still half asleep and confused about where I was when I became conscious of someone’s arms wrapped around my waist. A smile found its way across my face as I snuggled closer to the individual. Suddenly it hit me and my eyes snapped open.

I turned over to see Brianna’s face in front of mine. She looked so beautiful and innocent in her sleep; her lips softly closed along with her eyes. I watched her sleep and remembered all the memories of last night. They were the best memories I’d ever made, and I knew I’d never forget them.

Brianna began to move and her eyes slowly opened. She looked at me groggily.

“Key?” she asked, propping herself up in bed, a confused look on her face.

“Hold on, it’ll come back to you in a second,” I smiled, propping myself up as well.

She sat for a minute, still looking confused and half asleep.

“Wait… why am I ?!” she shouted, pulling the blankets over her chest. Now she was definitely awake.

“Remember last night?” I asked, taking her hand.

“I… oh, yeah I remember,” she began to smile too. “That was amazing.” She brushed her hand sweetly across my cheek.

I kissed her on the forehead, “Come on; we better get going. There’s another competition today!”

“We’re gonna dominate again!” she smiled.

“Of course we are yebo.”

----------------------------- 

“Hey guys!” I waved as Brianna and I entered the clearing where the big tree was.

Everyone turned to look at us. Some were happy while some looked jealous. I was in too good of a mood to care.

“How are all of you today?” I asked cheerily as we joined the group.

“Well you’re sure peppy today,” Annie said, giving me a skeptical look. I glared back at her and rested an arm around Brianna’s shoulders.

“Okay, now that you’re all here I can begin with the directions,” the manager spoke up. “Today’s task will take place here in this clearing. As most of you have probably noticed, there is an obstacle course set up behind me. You and your teammate must make it from one end of the obstacle course to the other. Whoever does it in the fastest amount of time, wins.”

“This will be easy,” Minho smiled down at Nicole, who looked like she was about ready to die in her sweat suit of the day (http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_N3uDUJ6sTi8/Rl5oX2Cby-I/AAAAAAAAArY/ADYPwwJhbJM/s400/5197zh-j%2BbL__SX288_.jpg).

“However, there’s a catch.”

That got our attention. We were all focused on the manager now; waiting to hear what he was about to say.

“Not only do both of you have to make it through quickly, but you also have to make it through WITHOUT touching the ground.”

“WHAT?!” we all shouted.

“I promise you it is possible. But, if one of you touches the ground, only that one teammate has to go back to the beginning and start over. I have one bandana of each team’s color in the bag,” he said, holding up a black duffle. “Your order will be chosen randomly by doing this. However, Key and Brianna, since you won yesterday’s challenge, you get to pick when you want to go. But you have to choose now.”

Brianna pulled me aside and quickly whispered, “Second.”

“Why second?”

“Because then we have a time to beat and we’ll see how the other team handled it, but the course won’t be too muddy by then.”

“MUDDY?!” I shouted. Everyone turned to look at me. I lowered my voice, “What about mud?”

“Didn’t you see the mud pit? If someone falls in it, then it’s going to make everything slippery. If we go second then it should still be pretty clean.”

“Ughhh, mud,” I whined.

“Oh, it up. Mud baths are supposed to help your skin anyway!” she said, pulling me back toward the group with her. “We’ll go second,” she told the manager.

“Okay! Now I’ll draw the bandanas. The order will go from first to last,” he said, reaching into the black bag.

*Rebecca’s POV*

He shuffled his hand around in the bag, then finally pulled out a bandana. “The Blue Team, Minho and Nicole, will go first!”

“Ughhh,” Nicole groaned.

“Come on baby,” Minho said placing a hand on her shoulder. “We have to set to bar high!”

She glanced up at him with a ‘Yeah-Right-Who-Do-You-Think-I-Am-Cat-Woman?’ look on her face. I tried to contain my laughter.

“Brianna and Key you are the pink team and you’ve decided to go second,” the manager confirmed.

“Yes,” Brianna smiled.

“Now for the next team…” he reached inside the bag again.
