Sunday

Bang bang bang! The old aluminum door of her camper rattled with every strike. Meg’s first conscious thought was that the mountain lion was trying to get in. She tried to get up but found herself tangled in blankets. By the time the sound ended she was sitting upright, wondering if she’d been dreaming.

There was a man getting up from her floor, rubbing his wild black hair, wearing a nice wedding jacket that was now quite dusty and half covered with a fleece throw. It was a shocking scene. He caught sight of her, looked confused for a split second, and then gave her that troublesome grin. “Hi,” he said. It was all he had time to say before the banging on the camper door resumed.

Meg jumped to her bare feet, but he was faster. Gage went for the door as if it was his camper. “Hold your horses!” he shouted. As he opened it he looked at her and grinned, “Get it? Horses?”

The door flew open, and Joshua stood on the ground below. He glared at Gage, over to Meg, and then back to Gage. “I think you’d better get out here,” he said.

Meg couldn’t figure out what was going on. Why was Joshua here? Why did he look angry? That creeping guilty feeling came back strongly. She hadn’t done anything wrong, had she? Of course she had, she hadn’t waked Gage. This looked bad. But why was Joshua here? “Oh no, is it the mountain lion?” she asked. “Did it hurt someone?”

“What mountain lion?” Joshua barked, irritated.

Gage stepped out and she intended to follow, but she was barefoot. She reached for her burgundy shoes, but she couldn’t even imagine putting them back on her sore feet. She grabbed the next closest thing, a pair of pink and brown fuzzy slippers. She trotted out of the camper and stopped short.

Her campsite was crowded. Joshua was staring at Gage, his arms crossed over his chest, one fist clenching under his elbow. But that wasn’t the worst of it. Walking up was a teary Brie, and with her arm around her, a very cross-looking Leah.

“This must be the worst honeymoon ever,” Meg said. She didn’t mean to say it out loud, but nerves tended to loosen her tongue.

Gage laughed. Then he pointed at her slippers. “Nice,” he said, and gave her a thumbs up.

They were the only ones smiling.

Meg took stock of the situation. First of all, there was Joshua. Unlike her, he had on a clean change of clothes. Since when did he get up early? Maybe it was later than she thought.

Then there was the crying maid of honor. What had happened to her? Meg tried to make sense of it. Brie was glaring at Gage. Meg wondered if Brie had just told Joshua something new and horrible about Gage. Or maybe he had been lying to him. Maybe he was lying to her. Did people who liked drawings of ninja bobcats lie? Meg felt self-doubt closing in on her.
