The Trip Part 3 by Anonymous

He felt a cool splash, and then another one, as he shook his head and tugged at his arms instinctively, trying to cover his face. His arms couldn't move and he felt the restraints tug at his wrists. His face was hit again with cool water and his eyes blurred as he opened them, trying to recall what had happened.

He had returned to the campsite. He was a bit giddy though he caught no fish.  He could smell the scent of food as he approached. They had sat down and he remembered eating slowly. Light conversation then... he felt sleepy and she was up behind him. Stroking his hair lightly and leaning down. "Did you think you'd get away with it forever," she whispered as he began to feel weak.  She took hold of his hair and tugged his head back, "Time to pay up."  That's when he could not stay awake any longer, and he had passed out.

Now he tugged on his wrist again, but could not move them. They were bound. He tried to shift his position but his legs was locked as well.  His ankle felt bound to some board beneath him, and there was a brace near his knee. It was then that cool air washed over his skin and he became alert. His head lifted and he searched the area. He saw that there were many people standing around, but their faces were masked.

One of them noticed he was awake and made her way over. He noticed then that it was a group of females. He did not know, could not know who they were, but he was sure one of them was his wife. He watched as one lady leaned down and whispered "Good morning sweet heart"   It was her, and he could tell by the mocking smile. She must have figured it all out...how long had she known he wasn't sure.  He gazed around as his trophies from that morning were being examined, and the ladies giggled across the room holding up one of the pictures that he had taken.

Fishing...yes he had "fished" for those photos of the ladies all right. He had always made so sure that his wife would be sick during the camping trip. So that he always had the freedom... that and he always planned their camping to be near by where the college cheer leaders would be gathering.

Many questions raced through his head...but he knew...somehow...she had found out. And now the new question...what was she going to do with him now?
