Adventure Date

Laura had been going out with her boyfriend, Caleb for a while now. Laura's best friend Sabrina had only just begun to go out with her boyfriend, Andrew. After three days of Sabrina and Andrew being together, Laura and Sabrina decided to plan a double date involving them and their two boyfriends.

They all came over to Sabrina's house the next weekend. "Why don't we go up the hill at the end of my street. We can have a picnic up the top. There's this lovely little clearing.." Sabrina started. "Sounds great." Laura agreed. "Whatever you want, darl." Andrew and Caleb said at the same time. "Alright, let's go." Laura decided, holding her hand out in front of Caleb. Caleb took it, and they walked out of the house, hand in hand, closely followed by Andrew and Sabrina.


The four friends hiked up the hill, up and up and up. Finally, after what seemed like years of climbing, they reached Sabrina's favourite clearing on the top of the hill. Laura and Sabrina set up the picnic basket and rug, whilst Andrew and Caleb looked around and explored.


Andrew, Caleb, Laura and Sabrina sat down to afternoon tea. Laura had set out muffins, fruit and scones. Sabrina had set out juice, water and cordial. "This is great, hon." Andrew commented, bitting into a scone. "Sure is. You're well right there, Andrew." Caleb agreed, biting a piece off his apple muffin. "Delicious!" Laura concluded. "Thanks guys." Sabrina blushed.


After afternoon tea, the four friends set back down the hill. But this time they went a different way, a longer way. It was a bush walk this time. In the middle of it, they found another clearing. A clearing with a large, narrow fresh water creek running right through the middle of it. Bushes of flowers outlined the clearing.
Caleb found a huge rock, near the bush trail they came out of. "Hey guys! Look at this!" He called to his friends. They all came over and joined him sitting on the rock.
They got so caught up in the magical view before them, that they lost track of time, and before they knew it, the sun was setting. "Quick! Let's go! It's getting dark." Sabrina jumped up, pulling Laura with one arm and Andrew in the other. Laura and Andrew both grabbed Caleb and they raced, against time to get back to Sabrina's house before the sun set.
Laura, Sabrina, Andrew and Caleb reached the top of the last hill. They could see Sabrina's house just at the bottom of the hill. So they joined hands, and flew down the hill.
The sun set just as they entered Sabrina's house.
They all look forward to another fun adveture very soon.
