The One With Lily And Nick

Chapter 10

After another four hours of walking, we stopped and made a campsite it was early evening, but we were too tired to continue. Roland and Ludlow suggested that we sleep for the night, but some of them will be on guard.

We ate what we had, tins of cold beans and pieces of bread and water. We had nothing else, so we had to make do with that. Kelly was sitting on her own, so I decided to go over to her.

"Hi." I hadn't really spoken to her since we came so I figured now was a good start.

"Hey." She mumbled looking down.

"You ok?" I asked my tone softened.

"No. I thought coming here would be great and fun."

I laughed, tilting my head back. "So did I. I never knew it would end up been like this."

"I just thought-"she said then stopped.

I titled my head to the side and looked at her curiously. "What? You thought what?"

"It's just me and my dad, well we never go anywhere together. Like he doesn't take me on any trips with him, anymore. He used to last year but ever since, he and Sarah have loads of arguments he never does. I thought this would be an adventure, and when I snuck in the trailer. I thought I would surprise him and he would be happy, but boy was I wrong."

I smiled softly. "Well maybe the reason he didn't want to bring you this time, was because he knew the risk, that this might happen. But believe me, when I say he will take you around with him after this. Because when you get outta of here there is no most dangerous place than here."

I paused then continued, "well here and been in the presence of Lions and Tigers." I laughed.

She laughed too, and smiled. "I really like you."

"I like you too. You're really a brave girl for your age." I rubbed her arm.

"Thanks, Nick really loves you as well."

I cocked my head to the side, "Really, how do you know?"

She shrugged. "Well I seen the way he looks at you, it's really intense. It's like he is willing to do anything to keep you safe."

That brought tears to my eyes, I seen the way he looks at me as well and I look at the same way to him. "You're very observant, I like that. I love him; we have been together for five years."

She smiled, "I know, I've been told. I can't wait to grow up and find someone of my own."

I laughed, she really cheered me up. "Well stay a child as long as you can. They are the best years of your life, and you don't want to waste it. When you go home, you can tell all your friends about this."

She nodded, "I liked speaking to you. It cheered me up, dad is just like a moping zombie and Sarah is trying to keep him in check."

"So did I it cheered me up too and I know how he feels." I got up, and said goodbye to her, and walked over to Nick who was talking to another guy again.

"Hey Nick." I said, sitting down next to him and the guy. "Hi-"

"Frank Marten." He said, shaking my hand, "Lily Summers."

"So you're a wildlife photographer?" he asked trying to make a conversation when I just wanted to curl up in Nick's arms and fall asleep.

I forced a small smile, "What's left of me."

He understood, and then noticed something on my forehead, "Ooh, that must hurt."

I furrowed my eyebrows, "What?" I touched my covered forehead, and spotted blood on my fingers. How couldn't I notice that before?

"Woah." Nick said, and pushed my hair on my head. His eyes widened in shock, and grabbed my hand and pulled me up and I found myself following him.

"Nick what are you doing?" I asked, as he grabbed a cloth and bottle of water. He held them in one hand and my hand in the other, and brought us around the corner just away from the others but we could still see them, from we were.

"Sit down." He ordered, I hesitated then sat on a log.

"Nick-"I tried, but he shook his head.

"I need to clean your wound." He touched my head, and I closed my eyes winced and hissed, "Am fine, am ok." I gently removed his hand from my head.

"Lily you're not, have you seen that split on your head. Let me clean it."

"What about you." I asked looking him over, even though he was not injured. Just a few cuts and grazes.

"Am alright, I never got hurt much." He said pulling out the cloth and dabbing water on it, I moved my hair out the way.

After a few minutes of dabbing and ows, he cleaned the wound, put a large plaster on it, leant up, and kissed my forehead, "Thank you." I said, I noticed the cloth was bloody. He put in a plastic bag, and washed his hands with the remaining water.

"Anything for my girl." He said, standing up with me but we never moved from where we were. We just stood there, looking in to each other's eyes. "I love you so much." He murmured to me looking at me like I was the most important thing to him, but like it was the last time he would ever see me.

"I know." I said back, my voice cracking with emotion. He has never looked at me this way before; as if it was the last time he would ever see me.

"I thought we were going to die when we went off that cliff. All I could think about was getting you to safety, my head was spinning. I just I couldn't." he stopped and I looked at the tears threating to come over. I had never seen him this way before.

"Couldn't what?"

"I can't bare the thought of losing you, God dammitt, I love you so much." He punched a tree, his anger getting the best of him. Tears nearly came to my eyes; we had never been through something like this before. "And if we would have died then. I failed to keep you safe. That bastard Dieter, looking at you, like I wasn't there. Now he's gone, I can't help but feeling sorry for him."

I sighed, a guilt trip taking over him. I walked over to him and slipped my arms under his tense ones and around his muscular waist, pulling him around to face me. "Shhh. Baby, it's alright. I love you too, very much. But don't ever feel like you have failed to keep me safe, because we both signed on for this trip in the first place. It was my decision to come here, and your decision to come here. You can't always protect me Nick. And Dieter, well ok that wasn't right for him to be looking at me like that, and especially at a time like this, and I knew he was a jerk. But it's what men do. I know, I feel sad for him too no one deserves to be killed like that. And poor Eddie, he was a great man. But so you know if we don't get outta here.-"

"We will, Lily." He said, his jaw clenched.

"Nick. We don't know that, we haven't even found the village yet. I mean how, long until the dinosaurs come back for us. Am so scared." I said, my arms slipping up his chest. While he locked, his around my waist releasing some tension.

"I know your scared sweetheart, but we will survive this I know we will. As soon as we wake up, we will keep on going. We will get there I promise you." He said stroking my cheek with his thumb. I leaned into his touch, sighing.

"You are keeping me safe, and I love you for that." I said, kissing him. He kissed me sweetly and pushing my hair back from my face and ran a hand through my knotty hair, the other holding my back. I sighed into the kiss running my fingers through his hair. I missed this; we couldn't go a day without just touching each other and kissing each other.

"Lily." He mumbled to her, trying to say something again. I hushed him with my finger. I didn't want to hear anything else from him. Because if we did die on the island, it would be with the person I love.

"Don't. Don't say anything else. Please just hold me," I whispered. He looked at me with devotion and love in his eyes. He pulled me into him, our chests crashed together and his arms holding me tightly, as if he was afraid someone would steal me way. I wrapped my arms around his neck, and buried my face in the crook of his neck, planting a small kiss there.

"I won't ever stop loving you." I mumbled. He chuckled, "Same here, baby."

XOXO

The group has made camp in the jungle. The mood is glum. Darkness filled the camp, and me and Sarah and Kelly have to share a tent. The group had, it wasn't a very big one, but they let us girls have the tent. Nick was a little reluctant about it, but I assured him it was fine. Besides some of them would be on dino watch. "Goodnight, I'll see you in the morning." I turned to go inside, but he grasped my arm.

"Yeah, I love you." He said, kissing my forehead.

"Love you." I said walking in the tent, and lying down next to Sarah and Kelly. Me and Sarah were in between Kelly. They had sweets and chocolate. Just what I needed right now.

"Yum," I said, reaching for a candy bar. We told stories to each other about our travels and it turned into one about marriage.

"So you and Nick ever gonna tie the knot?" Sarah asked on one elbow.

"We have thought about it, but we are going to give it a couple of more years. I mean there is no need to rush about anything right."

"Hmm. I guess you're right," she looked away; Kelly looked at me then back at her.

"What about you and dad?"

Sarah looked a little panicked, "what about me and him?"

"Are you two gonna get married?" she asked with hopeful eyes.

She opened and closed her mouth twice. "I uh I don't know Kelly. I mean I travel a lot so I don't think we could handle a wedding right now."

Kelly looked disappointed, "Hey, cheer up. I am sure it will happen in the future. If it helps when I have my wedding, you will be the first one I invite."

She smiled. "Thank you Lily." I smiled and then looked at Sarah. "Let's get some sleep."

She nodded, then turned the light down.

Hi nothing exciting really is in this chapter, it's got a load of fluff and mushy stuff, so if you're not into cheesy bits don't read it. It's because I love Lily and Nick so much and because they are on an island full of dinosaurs and they don't know if it will be their last few hours together. So they are pretty much scared that they will lose each other. They are cute, when they are in a dangerous situation.

Next one won't be full of fluff like this one though. So enjoy!
