Chapter Three

Mimi watched wideyed as Jason ran to her. 'I knew he was hot but...wow.'

Jason beamed, hugging Mimi and spinning her around in the air once he reached her. Mimi blushed in the awkward silence once he put her down.

"Sorry. It's just, well, we thought you were dead so I'm, um, glad you're okay. So you got stranded here I guess?"

"Uh, yeah, I did. How did YOU get here?" Mimi tried as hard as she could not to look at Jason's chest, but her eyes were drawn to it again and again until she was forced to close them. 'Damn. He noticed.'

Jason gave an amused laugh as Mimi turned bright red. "Meems, stop staring at me. I feel so...violated."

"Shut up, I wasn't staring!"

"Relax, you can stare at me if you want." 'Cause Lord knows I'm staring at you...those sexy curves in wet clothes...'

"Wait. Did I just say that out loud?"

"Say what out loud?" Mimi was starting to wish she was alone on the island again, no matter how great Jason looked with no shirt on.

"Good, and I got here by jet ski."

"Great! Let's go!"

"Um, it ran out of gas so its kinda in the middle of the ocean now. Sorry."

"NO NO NO!!" Mimi started running down the beach, away from Jason.

"WHAT?! I SAID I was sorry!"

"I don't care how sorry you are! I'm stuck on an island with someone I hate! My life sucks." Mimi looked down at her feet when she saw the hurt look in Jason's eyes. "Well, how am I supposed to feel? You treat me like shit, Jason. You hate me too, don't deny it."

"Meems, I have to deny it. I can't let someone think I hate them when that's so far from the truth."

"But...well okay I guess there WAS the whole picking me up and spinning me around thing but you and Jan..."

"I dumped Jan! Trust me, I can actually be pretty nice when she's not around. Mimi, I just want to apologize for all the times-"

"Save it," Mimi interrupted. "This is your chance to prove what a 'nice guy' you are. I'll believe it when I see it."

"There he is. Hawk! Have you seen Jason?" Shawn and Belle ran up to the bully, for once happy to see him.

"Last I knew, he rented a jet ski and took it out on the ocean. But that was hours ago."

"Oh no! Shawn what if he went to search for Mimi? We can't lose another person!" Belle's eyes filled up with tears.

"Uh, why would Jase go looking for a loser like that?" Hawk rolled his eyes. "You guys are kidding right?"

"Mimi isn't a loser, and Jason seems to care about her alot, so you might want to stop talking like that about her if you want to keep his friendship." Shawn glared at Hawk

"Whatever man. I still think you're on crack, Shawn."

Jan walked up to the group, putting her arms around Shawn's waist. Belle glared at her, hoping Shawn would do something about it.

"Um. Hi Jan. Would you please get the hell off of me?" Shawn asked her, with a disgusted look on his face. Belle couldn't stop herself from laughing as Jan turned red.

"Oooh...rejected."

"Shut up Hawk! It's not like YOU don't want me!"

"Uh...Jan...I've HAD you. Trust me Shawn, you aren't missing anything."

"You stupid son of a bitch!"

Shawn and Belle walked away, leaving Hawk and Jan to their catfight.

"What should we do Shawn? I can't just sit here and do nothing."

Shawn put his arm around Belle's shoulders. "We could try to rent a sailboat and look for them. But who knows, a boat could have picked them up. Maybe they are on their way here now."

"Yeah but what if they ARE out there in the ocean somewhere? It's starting to get dark. I would never forgive myself if something happened to Meems or Jase and we did absolutely nothing to help them!"

"Okay Belle, let's rent a boat then. I just hope that wherever they are, they're together. It would be tough trying to find them separately."

"I'm scared Shawn. I can't lose my best friend when we just started to get close again."
