Aiden and Lake

This page focuses on the interactions between Aiden and Lake.

## Overview

Aiden and Lake are both placed on the Orange Team on Day 1. They don't interact much at first due to being in separate alliances, but as their team dwindles in members they quickly bond due to both being level-headed and supportive people. Aiden and Lake begin a friendship and alliance which sets out to help each other out with their problems. With Aiden being there for Lake to give her sense into her parent's cruel methods, while Lake being there to push Aiden to make up with James. They both manage to successfully push the other to perform tasks which they deem as best for them, and due to their knowledge and kind attitudes they manage to know what is best, making them great friends. Aiden recognizes that Lake is a strong player, but despite this will refuse to vote her off, as they share a mutual bond. And in the finale Aiden chooses Lake as a helper, a good decision considering her abilities.

## Disventure Camp - Season 2

### Open Your Eyes

James reveals to the girls that Aiden and Karol had been talking about voting one of them. Shocking them, and making them vote out Karol.

### The Kiss-a-thon

After walking out of the cabin, Aiden trips on one of Lake's books, she calls out his name and asks if he's okay. Aiden responds saying it was nothing and he should've been watching where he was going, Lake denies this and says it's her fault for putting her books on the ground. Aiden forgives her, and asks why she has so many books. Lake explains she has to do a few essays for her tutor while she is here, Aiden is shocked by this, and why Lake has to do homework on a reality show. Lake explains it was a condition set by her parents that she has to abide by so they could permit her to participate on the show. Aiden is surprised, but Lake decides to pick up the books and leave to go talk to the girls.

### Truth Hurts

Aiden and Lake both have to admit during the challenge that during the previous challenge they had their first kisses, embarrassing them both.

### You Are A Monster!

Aiden approaches Lake after getting his breakfast, greeting her with a good morning. He asks her if he can sit beside her, and in a happy tone greets him back and allows him to sit next to her. He asks her if everything is okay, as he has seen she is somewhat down lately. Instead of answering, Lake asks him a question, if he thinks she lives a normal life. Aiden responds asking what even is considered normal nowadays, and tries to chuckle it off. However Lake tells him to be honest, Aiden sighs and states that we all have things we don't want to do for our own good, but he says that Lake is purposefully doing those things to herself, and hurting herself. Lake says that Rosa told her something similar, but instead of listening, got mad at her. Aiden explains that a friend who loves you will always tell the truth, no matter how much it hurts. Lake asks Aiden what she should do, and he says she should talk to Rosa, and she is probably waiting for her to do so. Lake thanks Aiden.

Later in the challenge, when Kristal instructs Lake to remove her wig, Aiden tells her she shouldn't, as she shouldn't give her the satisfaction. And after yelling at Kristal, Aiden confesses that he always thought that about Kristal, but never had the courage to say so out loud.

Later, Aiden is sat with Lake, eating what can be presumed to be dinner, before the pair are approached by their last teammates Yul and James. Aiden refuses to cooperate with them, and says that himself and Lake are voting for Yul no matter what happens in the tiebreaker. Yul tries to intimidate Aiden, but he instead backs away from him getting closer to Lake instead. Aiden tells Yul to stay away from him, and himself and Lake leave them to go eat.

At the ceremony, Lake and Aiden were surprised that Yul had been poisoned, and that James had voted with them despite what had happened.

### Not As Easy As It Seems

During the break before the final round, Lake approaches Aiden in the bathroom, and Aiden compliments her new wig saying it looks amazing on her. Lake thanks him, and says Rosa gave her the push to make a change. Aiden is glad to see things had worked out between the pair, Lake thanks him for this and says talking to Aiden helped her a lot. Aiden asks if she can help him with a separate issue, and explains that James has been good to him the past few days, but he is worried about trusting him and is worried he'll disappoint him again (When he got Karol voted out). Aiden asks Lake what she thinks he should do. Lake says that ultimately while his methods to vote out Karol were questionable, she thinks he only wanted the two of them to stay in the game together. Lake further goes on to say that she thinks that James' way of taking out Yul was not strategy, and was more a way of protecting Aiden. He thinks this is weird, and says that if James wanted an alliance then Yul was a better option, to which Lake says that maybe James likes him. Aiden questions whether she means romantically likes him, and she says yes, explaining that the way James kissed him, his tone of his voice, his body movements when he's around him, all link back to the idea that James likes him. While explaining this she does start to blush a little. Aiden recognizes that Lake seems to know a lot about this subject, but Lake just summarizes that the point is he won't know what James' intentions are if he doesn't give him a chance. Aiden thanks Lake, and she says it is what friends are for.

Later, Lake as well as Rosa Maria and Riya approach Aiden and James, and propose an alliance against Ally, Hunter and Tess as their alliance has dominated the game since day 1. The boys accept, and Lake and Aiden vote together to eliminate Tess.

### Nightmare in Tipiksaw

After Karol returns and wins immunity for herself, Hunter and Ally, Lake expresses distress in the confessional at the possibility of having to vote for Aiden in the elimination ceremony. Later, while discussing who to vote out, James tells Aiden that he is thinking of voting for Lake since she is one of the strongest competitors remaining in the game. Aiden responds that he is not going to do that and suggests they vote for Riya instead. Not wanting to vote for Lake or James, Aiden casts the sole vote for Riya at the elimination ceremony that night, and is disappointed when Lake is voted out.

### Money, Fame and Shame, Part 1

Lake is shown supporting Aiden in the peanut gallery at the beginning of the final challenge. When asked to select a helper for the challenge, Aiden chooses Lake due to their deep bond and her challenge prowess. While on the bus ride to the snowy area, Lake consoles Aiden about his recent misgivings with James and encourages him to talk things out with James, but he is unsure. Later, while climbing up the cliffside, Lake tells Aiden that he should forgive James if James is willing to change for the better. When Aiden is doubtful that someone could change so easily, Lake uses herself as an example to disprove him. Lake does all she can to help Aiden win, and the pair dominates the challenge until Aiden is paralyzed by his fear of heights at the top of the cliff. Lake tries her best to get Aiden to jump, and encourages him to hold on for help after Riya pushes him.

### Money, Fame and Shame, Part 2

After Aiden has now been eliminated, the pair go to sit with the peanut gallery supporting James. Aiden turns to Lake and asks her if she is returning to Germany, Lake says she will not return for now. Aiden asks Lake what she will do now, to which Lake responds that she is taking a vacation and staying with Rosa María in Mexico. Aiden says that her plan sounds great, and that he is amazed her parents allowed her to do that. Lake corrects him saying they didn't, which leaves Aiden asking what she means. Lake summarises that after exposing her parents horrible parenting methods on international television, her family's reputation has waned a bit, so they do not want her around. Aiden is surprised, but Lake says she is happy about it as it feels liberating.
