It was a bit sandy, yet very sticky. With struggle, he lifted his boots up from the quicksand-like ground and focused on what was in front of him. They were almost there.
He turned his head towards Chloe, who was chatting up with Elena. Maybe it was about the idol? He couldn't make much sense of it. He jumped a little when Sully placed a hand on his shoulder.
"Nate, Whats up?" He smirked.
Nate gestured over to the two girls. "What're they up to?"
Sully shrugged. "Idol?"
Nate turned back to them. "Huh."
When they got to the Island, they got off the boat they stole and placed their feet onto the wet, wet sand.
"Still warm" Nate chuckles.
Elena walked past him as if there was someone there.
Chloe drawed her gun as Sully did the same.
Nate was the last one to, but then he placed it back. It was probably just a racoon.
Just then, something DID show up. Just as he thought, it was the grey-furred creature he thought it was.
Elena walked up to it. "Hey little guy..."
Nate looked at her. She was smiling. Her smile just warmed his heart and caused him to melt.
Sully looked over at Chloe as if he wanted her approval. "Let's split up"
Chloe nodded and the two of them walked South.
Nathan was left with Elena.
"So-" Elena began.
"Really Elena, I'm glad you're not dead. It was...a heck of an experience" Nate gave a satisfied smile.
"Heck of an experience? You saw me almost die before too, and now you're acting like it never happened" Elena laughed.
"Oh really? Didn't I just tell you how satisfied I was?" he laughed as his smile turned into a grin.
Elena smiled back. She didn't even notice that she was quite close to him. When she did, she slowly backed away, embarressed.
Nate frowned. Why did she back away? Was he not good enough for her...or does she need a bit of space?
Thats it, he thought. He walked up to her slowly and when he was a bit close to her, he laid a hand under her chin. He looked deeply into her eyes and smiled sweetly as he saw her calm down and her blushes faded. He leant a bit closer and wrapped his arms around her waist.
Elena smiled. His body, which was slightly against her, felt so warm. His scruffy facial hair made him look adorable as his eyes shined against the sun's light. She laid her hands on his cheek as she melted into his embrace.
Nate leant in closer and slightly chuckled before he kissed her with passion. After a few seconds, they seperated there lips as they looked into eachother's eyes.
He placed his forehead on hers as their noses touched. They both chuckled while holding one another.
Did he seriously do it? He kissed Elena, showed his after feelings since their last break-up and now...he feels like a new man.
They seperated as Elena laid her head on his shoulder. Nate looked into her eyes and slowly said,
"I love you, Elena Fisher"
