So heres another short chapter. Hope you like it.
Joey's eyes opened as he felt something underneath him move.
He looked down then quickly pulled himself back from the small sleeping Lauren he was practically sleeping on top of. He blushed even though no one was awake he was scared about the thought that he had done that in his unconsciousness 'what if Lauren woke up' he thought as he ran his fingers through his hair. Sure he could blame it on being asleep but he knew, if he could he would always have his small friend wrapped in his arms.
...
"Joey you're crushing Lauren, wake up!" Yelled Julia.
Joey woke up to find himself wrapped around an awake Lauren. He quickly moves back.
"Sorry!" He says as she smiles at him and gets up.
He makes eye contact with Brian R who smiles awkwardly.
"It's fine." Said lauren cheerfully she laughed as she stared at Joey. He was so funny she thought to herself. It's great to have a friend to cuddle with..
Joey got out of the cave and mentioned for Brian R to come join
"what up?" Brosenthal asked
"Dude you gotta warn me about stuff like that! Everyone will figure out that I like her!" He put his face in his hands and let out a sigh.
"You know you have to tell her sometime Joey! Everyone's going to find out anyways. You know that..." Brian pat his friend on his back.
Joey's tummy hurt with the idea of the others knowing. At the idea of telling lauren.
"I just can't. It could mess everything up. And I don't want that." He turned and looked at his dear friend as she climbed a tree. "I love her." He says quietly...
...
Lauren reached the top of the tall tree she had been climbing she looked around. Where is Joe? She thought to herself.
All she could think about was finding her friends. The dream she had last night still haunts her. She was in the cave but Joe, Denise jaime and Jim were there as well, they were all sleeping when the cave started flooding, until it reached the top, everyone was drowning and she was trying to get to Joe but she couldn't then she woke up right before he died.
Suddenly lauren saw something along the shore.
"It's Joe! Jaime, Denise and Jim they are on the beach!" She yells to her friends as she scrambled to get down, but before she knew it one of the branches came tumbling done and so did she.
