Chapter 2

Caleb had gotten knocked out because of the pain. "Come on fucking lift this shit!" Toby yelled. They had finally lifted it after about 15 minutes of struggling. Noel drug Caleb out. He checked his pulse.

"Shit he's dead." Noel said. Hanna collapsed at his side.

"Oh god Caleb, I'm so sorry I didn't protect you." Hanna said. Noel laughed.

"I was just kidding!" Noel laughed everyone stared at him with daggers. Toby stood up and punched him square in the jaw. "What the fuck man?!" He yelled clenching his jaw for a second.

"Don't fuck around like that Noel!" Toby yelled.

"We're gonna need to keep his ribs compressed." Emily said, she lifted his shirt up and felt his side. "There's no broken ribs. Their just a little cracked, and I guess it knocked him out." Emily said. Everyone let breaths out, of relief. Emily took her sweater off and wrapped it around Caleb's ribs.

"Do you think he'll be okay?" Hanna whispered to Alison.

"Yeah, he'll be fine as long as he's got Emily and you taking care of him." Alison said honestly. Hanna nodded in agreement. Emily finished tying her sweater around the boy and stood up, she walked over to Hanna and Alison.

"He'll be fine. It'll take maybe a couple of days to heal, since its only minor." Emily said, truthfully. Alison and Hanna nodded. "There are a lot of people here. We need to go through the luggage thats on the ground and start looking for important things we can use as shelter, and things we can use to make fire." Emily said. Hanna nodded and went off to look for some stuff.

"What do you think the body count is?" Alison asked. Emily looked around still seeing lots of fire and people screaming and running.

"Probably about 28 dead. Maybe 14 on the brink of death." Emily said honestly.

"You're really handling this well Em, Im impressed." Alison said.

"When you have a tragedy like this happen to you, you have two choices. Let it destroy you or you can let it make you stronger...I'm going with the second choice." Emily said. Alison nodded.

"Do you want to talk about...what happened?" Alison asked.

"Ali...I get it. You only kissed me to distract me...It doesn't mean anything." Emily said in slight disappointment. But it was enough for Alison to notice. Alison put her arm on Emily's arm.

"Emily...It wasn't just to distract you." Alison said before walking off in the direction of Aria and Spencer. Emily mentally slapped herself. She had always had a feeling that Alison knew about the crush she had on her., but she never thought more into depth about it. Alison was bisexual. And she always had a boyfriend or a girlfriend that Emily just couldn't compete with.

Spencer got up on her feet and started walking with Aria and Alison. "How long do you think it'll take for someone to find us?" Aria asked Spencer.

"Well, it the show lost I'm pretty sure no one found them." Spencer said honestly. Alison eyed her. "What? Its just my input." Spencer said truthfully.

"I can't believe our plane crashed." Aria said.

"Well believe it Aria." Alison said. She looked around. She looked back at where Emily was. She was helping some pregnant chick. She was so sweet. She turned her attention back to Spencer.

"How's your leg?" Alison asked.

"Its great. Emily really did a great job. She's like magic." Spencer claimed.

Hanna was searching through things when she was approached by Emily. "DId you find anything useful?" Emily asked.

"Yeah, some fruits and non-perishables. Couple bottles of alcohol...and a lot of condoms." Hanna said the last part with a smile. Emily smiled too. Emily looked in the suitcase Hanna had grabbed to put all of the other stuff in.

"Is Jenna dead?" EMily asked.

"I'm not sure." Hanna asked. "Why?" She asked.

"Because...she was a really good person." Emily said nodded. What are we gonna do about shelter?" Emily asked. Hanna motioned toward a box.

"It's got a tent inside." Hanna said. Emily nodded. "Who knew that we would be in an episode of lost." Hanna said. Emily laughed.

"Yeah, its not even funny. But its actually really funny." She said smiling.

"So...how are things with Ali?" Hanna asked.

"Hanna, this really isn't the time or place for that." Emily said seriously.

"I know, its just I'm curious is all." Hanna said. Emily fell into the blonde's spell.

"Well, Ali told me that the kiss we shared together wasn't just to distract me. And thats all she said, then she walked away." Emily sad looking down at her feet.

"Do you want me to talk to her?" Hanna asked.

"No." Emily simply said. She looked at the simmering hot sun. She reached into her pocket and retrieved her phone. It had like 93 percent battery. She tried calling 911. No signal...of course. She looked at the time. 6:42 pm. She just sighed heavily.

"What's wrong?" Hanna asked concerned.

"No signal." Emily said, she turned her phone off.

2 hours Later...

"Are we really all gonna sleep in this fucking tent together?" Noel asked.

"We could always throw you out." Ezra said. Noel shut his mouth in that moment. Alison was next to Emily.

"Guys we can be comfortable if you guys stop moving!" Spencer yelled. It was already dark outside. Emily had enough of everyone's bickering. She got up and left the tent. She sat on the sand outside the tent next to the fire. She got the pot Hanna had collected and filled it up with sea water then went back to the fire and set it up so it could boil and the water would be drinkable.

"See what you guys did? You made Emily get upset." Caleb said weakly.

"Yeah, and she's been like the MVP of the whole day." Toby said. Everyone looked at Alison.

"Fine, I'll go make sure she's okay." Alison said getting out of the tent. She saw Emily on the other side of the fire. She went over on the other side where she was and sat down next to her. "What are you doing?" Alison asked looking at the pot suspended over the fire.

"Making the salt water drinkable." Emily said. Alison smiled.

"You're getting way too smart Fields." Alison said with a smile. Emily carefully took the pot off of the suspender and put it into the sand. "Are you okay?" Alison asked.

"I don't know Alison." Emily said truthfully. "What did you mean earlier today when you said you didn't just kiss me to distract me?" Emily asked. Alison looked at her. She squeezed Emily's hand.

"Ever since sophomore year...I would sit at home and think that I have a hopeless crush on someone I have no chance with...You are so out of my league Emily. You're sweet, smart, and loyal and friendly. Everything that I'm not." Alison took a deep breath.

"My heart stops when you look at me Em...I know I don't have a chance with you, but I really want to let you know that I like you." Alison said. Emily couldn't process what Alison had just said.

"I think the water's ready." Was all Emily could say. Alison just stood up and was about to go back to the tent. "Wait...Alison." Alison turned around and looked at her.

"Yeah?" Alison asked as her voice croaked a little.

"Your feelings...they aren't one sided." Emily said. Alison smiled at went back into the tent. Emily took a sip of the water out of the pot. It was good. She had never realized how much she appreciated water until that point. She took a couple more gulps and took it into the tent.

"You okay Emily?" Jake asked.

"Yeah, I was just getting some water." Emily said.

"Emily, salt water will kill you." Spencer said.

"I purified it with the fire. You guys drink up. I already had my fair share." She handed the pot to Caleb first and he only drank a little, because he was still in some pain. Everyone passed it around and drank it until it was all gone.

"You know, I think we'll be alright." Ezra said.

"Yeah, as long as we have each other." Aria said. Shortly everyone fell asleep together, bunched up trying to keep warm.
