I own nothing not even this computer. Please read and review. This was made because I feel as if all good shows need some sort of fanfic like this. Stupid but true. And ideas please PM them to me for the next oneshot chapter. Appreciate it. This is an Lila/Nathaniel story. enjoy

"I can't go any higher." Nathaniel complained as he attempted to place the bamboo pole above the one that was laid out. Lila was standing below him watching as the red head attempted to fortify their 'tiger-loft.'

Ever since the two had been stranded on the island they had been hearing growls and roars out in the darkness during the night. Which always caused whoever was staying up as a guard to scream their heads off in fear before shaking the other one awake. To put it simply neither of them had gotten much sleep in the past week and a half.

The noises had sounded like lions from a bunch of old movies. But after they found some fur that was orange and black they were both convinced that it was a tiger. Or two. Or three dozen. And they were both convinced that they were going to get eaten.

That was until Lila had the expert idea to create a elevated place to sleep at night.

"You need to find a way to go higher." She still insisted she was trying hard not to check him out. But after spending close to a week on the island with the other one it was getting harder and harder to deny it. He was actually sort of cute in a shy artistic nerd kind of way.

"I'm telling you that I won't reach." Nathaniel shot back, he tried to crane his head behind himself to get a peek of her. She was just below him, he knew that he would be able to look directly into her lovely bottomless eyes if he just turned at the right moment.

"Well I am telling you that the only way that the two of us are going to avoid becoming tiger chow is if it is as high as possible. Trust me, my Dad used to work with tigers back in the Amazon rain forest and the only way that you can avoid them is if you are far enough off of the ground." She said effortlessly. Nathaniel furrowed his brow. There was something wrong with that, but he just couldn't tell what it was.

He didn't know all that much about tigers to tell the truth, or lions, he knew a little about ligers. A lion and a tiger mix. With skills in magic. They were fun to draw. Of course he also didn't know a thing about how to act when you were stranded on a desert island. She seemed pretty confident about how to act while they were on the island. Nathaniel was taking her lead on things.

He never in a million years would have imagined that he would become stranded on an island with a girl from his class. A very pretty girl with mischievous eyes and thick brown hair that seemed to drag the sun and the sea directly behind her.

A few weeks ago he had washed up on shore, fell onto his side and coughed violently, convinced that there was still a galloon left in his lungs. She had strolled out of the ocean after swimming towards it. Pulled her hair back and squeezed all of the excess moisture out of it like some sort of Greek goddess from the ancient legends.

Nathaniel had been in so much awe of her that he had done everything that she had told him to do so far without a second thought. This included going deep into the jungle by himself to get water. Rubbing two sticks together to produce friction to make a fire that they kept going for heat (a little unnecessary except at night, since it was so warm in this area.) And of course trying to make a shelter so that they would not actually get eaten by tigers.

However she had not been doing anything to help him out. She had told him to do things, he had done said things and then she for the most part had reaped the benefits of the things. Take the shelter for instance it was only big enough to fit about one person. So he would probably have to be sleeping on the ground surrounded by man eating tigers just like every other night.

Nathaniel stood on his tiptoes and attempted to position the next pole just right so that it wouldn't come crashing down onto him. He shifted and finally realized what she said that had been off to him.

"I thought that Tigers lived in Asia? And around Europe? What would they be doing in the Amazon?" She stiffened and shifted uncomfortably from one foot to the other not making eye contact with him.

"I never said the Amazon."

"You just said that your Dad worked with Tigers in the Amazon."

"No! What I meant was that he had experience in survival situations and saw a bunch of tigers while in the Amazon rain forest." She recovered quickly and confidently. Nathaniel slowly turned and dropped the piece of wood that he had been using for the next part of the lofted sleeping porch.

"That doesn't make any sense, you told me before that it was your mom who had done all of the survival stuff and taught you everything." She clammed up, except for the occasional stutter and how she pulled at her hair she had gone completely silent.

"Oh my god." Nathaniel said dropping the wood next to her before jumping down. "OH MY GOD! You have no idea what you are doing here do you? Do you!" He shouted frustrated before rubbing his eyes in annoyance.

"No! I do! I totally do! Just do what I say and we should be fine."
"You mean you should be fine, because I'm the one who is always stuck doing all of the work! Doing all of the dangerous stuff! You're just a coward and a liar." He finished in disgust before he turned and began to march into the jungle. She squeaked before she ran after him.

"HEY! Hey wait!" Nathaniel didn't listen. He just kept on walking.

It was a few hours later and he was still walking. He half expected to get mauled to death at any moment. But if he continued going well there was still the off chance that he might find a safe place to sleep for the night. Although he probably wasn't going to.

He just couldn't believe that he had fallen for her lies. Hook, line and sinker. He had just been way too trusting. Well if they ever got off of the island he was going to expose her, if they got off that was. Which as the days wore on were looking less and less likely. Nathaniel frowned and rubbed his eyes, his hair was getting obnoxiously long and he sort of wanted to cut it all off.

Suddenly he heard something. Something snapped a twig right beside him. He turned his head slowly and was face to face with a tiger.

"So you've been causing all of this trouble huh?" He said softly, it crouched back on its haunches and licked it's lips, its cubs right beside it and imitated their mother. Nathaniel smiled and opened his arms as it sprung.

Lila was anxiously trying to finish the shelter. She couldn't believe that she was actually moving slower compared to that noodle armed Nathaniel. She strained trying to rip the next piece of bamboo out of the ground and all of her straining just got her sore palms.

She was alone, for the first time on this island she was alone. Why did she always do this? She could have helped him, she could have found some way for the two of them to work together. But no she had to boast and brag and then lie and make more stuff up and continue on the stupid vicious never ending cycle like a spoiled brat. And all it did was get her alone with sore palms on a tiger infested island. (Okay admittedly they had not actually seen a tiger yet but it was only a matter of time before they did. Or before she did. Because Nathaniel was gone and he was not going to be coming back and now she had to look after herself.)

She heard something growl. Very close by. And very loudly. She stiffened and didn't move. She knew that she wouldn't be able to outrun a tiger that was just common sense. But could tigers see an object if it didn't move? She knew she had seen or heard that somewhere before. Or it had been in a movie. OR she had made it up during science class in order to sound intelligent.

She closed her eyes and stiffened, she was going to die, she was going to die, she was going to die, please don't let it hurt.

"Hey Lila." Nathaniel spoke up directly behind her. She shrieked and whirled around her arms up defensively. She then froze again when she saw the tiger that he was carrying.

It was small, about the size of a tabby cat. In his other arms there were a lot of little kitten sized tiger cubs. They were mewling and even seemed to be purring against the artistic boys skin. He grinned and sat on the grass with the tiny tigers.

"I think that we've been hearing these guys."

"How are they so small?"

"No idea but I am not going to question it. Adaptation maybe? Or just a new breed? I don't know but it is a good thing for us right?" She cautiously sat down on the grass across from him and reached out to pet one of the smaller babies. It actually meowed and allowed her to stroke it.

"These are adorable." She said with a wide smile and stars in her eyes. He smiled a small smile in return. Lila and Nathaniel sat in the shade of the half finished tiger protection shelf and played with the miniature animals.

Lila looked at him and noticed the few scratch marks he had gotten, probably from transporting the animals so far. And the burns on his palms from rubbing the sticks together. And the bruises from well everything….She had been abusing him,pushing him too hard, not pulling her weight. Just neglecting the poor boy.

"Uh NAthaniel?" She said softly looking at him with genuine remorse in her eyes. "I am sorry for how mean I've been to you. And for lying to you." Nathaniel didn't respond. He stared at her in shock for a few moments. The way that the sun broke through the leaves overhead and framed her face, the slight rustling of wind that pushed her hair back, and the glorious glow that came from her eyes…he wished that he had something to sketch on, something to paint on, something that would capture even a hint of what she looked like right at that very moment.

All that Nathaniel could do however was blush and stammer out an apology. She looked at him in confusion before letting out a high pitched giggle. The tiny tiger that resembled a tabby cat was chewing on her fingertips playfully as she scratched it's belly.

'Oh no. She's cute.' Nathaniel thought to himself as he attempted to distract himself with the tiny baby tigers that all seemed to want to clamor for their attention for some reason.

Sorry if this was a little on the short side especially compared to the last few . Still liked the overall way that it turned out. a note that all of these are not connected so most of them are on different islands and universes and so on. It just fascinates me two people alone for extended periods of time. How that can affect their relationship. So yeah please PM me the next couple you would like to see happen. Just two names, maybe any sort of plot device, it is simple enough, just the couple stuck on a desert island and having to deal with that. Shipping and so read and review.
