Abby walked over to Luka slowly, letting the sand slip over her feet and through her toes. He turned to face her when he heard her coming, and she smiled at him, receiving one in return

"You okay?" she asked, dropping down beside him.

"Yeah I'm good."

"Coconut?" Luka shook his head and gazed out to the horizon watching the moon reflected in the water. He felt Abby peering at him.

"You sure you're okay?" She asked concernedly.

"I'm fine." Luka laughed, turning to face her. "Honestly." Abby nodded and followed Luka's returned gaze to the water. Over by the water, away from the warmth of the fire and the cover of the trees, it was a bit cooler. She whished she was wearing something thicker and drew her knees up under her chin.

"You cold?" Luka asked, concernedly.

"No, it's just a bit cooler over here, that's all. Why don't you come and sit with us?"

"I like it over her, by the water. I grew up on the coast, and I've always loved the ocean." Abby nodded and looked back out at the water.

"It is beautiful."

"Hey guys." Susan called from the camp. They both turned around to look at her. "We're gonna turn in now."

"Okay," Abby called back. "You coming?" She asked, looking at Luka.

"No. I'll stay out here for a bit. I'll stay up in case there are any boats or planes that see us."

"Okay, but wake me up after a while, you shouldn't stay awake all night." She stood up and gripped Luka's arm softly before walking away, back towards the camp. As she got closer she saw Susan, Carter and Jing-Mei arguing over who got to sleep where.

"Girls should get to go in the raft." Said Jing-Mei.

"Why?"

"Because. It's the noble thing to do." Abby smiled and took a sip of water from one of the refilled water bottles.

"If we're gonna argue then let everyone sleep in there." She said.

"We can't," Said Pratt, "There isn't enough space for all of us, I like to spread out when I sleep."

"Good, argument settled." Every one looked at her. "Well if the boys need to spread out then there's more room in the shelter. Have a nice night guys." She walked quickly into the raft.

"Ha." Said Susan, she and Jing-Mei following Abby into the raft. Pratt and Carter just stood there for a moment.

"I'm sorry, what just happened?" Muttered Carter.

"The girls beat us."
