Mary Ann
I dab cool water on Gilligan's head, worrying about him. Yes, I am officially done being mad at him, and done hiding my feeling. I love Gilligan, and I'm going to do everything I can to take care of him. It's been about three days since the attack, and the wound is looking better, but I still sprinkle some salt every now and then to keep it clean. I also loosen the makeshift bandages every hour or two to keep the blood flowing. But we'll need new ones soon, and the only place that has them is at camp.
I feel something take my hand, and I look down to see Gilligan slowly waking up, wanting to make sure I'm there when he does. I can't help but cry silently, glad he'll survive this.
"Mary Ann?" He whispers.
"Shh, save your energy Gilligan." I say, giving him a cup of water. He pushes it away.
"No. I have to tell you this. Please." What choice do I have? It's better that he says it now so he can rest again. I nod, waiting for him to speak. He takes a deep breath.
"I'm deeply sorry we fought. It's just..." He try's to find the words, "It's just that I love you too much to lose you." That did it. Tears are now falling more freely, and I'm not ashamed of it either. How can I? Gilligan just admits he loves me.
"I sorry I over reacted Gilligan. I love you too." He smiles and falls back asleep. I bit my lower lip before lying down next to him, being careful that I don't hit his bad leg. His arm wraps around me, and I place my head on his chest. Smiling, I fall asleep to the strong beating of his heart.
Short Chapter I know. But I'm tired and will update tomorrow, so calm down. Lol. R&R!
