(A/N Ok, here we go, here's the next chapter. Woot! Every one party! Oh, remember, if the writing's in italics, its part of the video diary. Enjoy.)
"Lex!" Daley cried, and Taylor made a face of disgust.
"Ew! Gross!" She said, and Nathan glared at her, shutting her up. "Sorry", she mumbled, and went to get the first aid kit.
"What happened Jackson?" Daley asked again, and Jackson starting walking again, going to lie Lex down in the plane.
"This was how I found him", Jackson repeated. "I knew he was checking on the garden, so I went to check on him, and he was laying on the ground." He explained to Daley, Nathan, and Melissa who had followed him.
Daley leant down and put her ear up to his mouth, and then checked his pulse. "At least he's breathing", she said, and sighed loudly.
Then Taylor appeared with the first aid kid in one hand, and a bottle of water in the other.
She made a face, but stepped into the plane any ways, and handed Daley the first aid kit. "What's wrong with him?" She asked, clearly disgusted.
"Is it…the chicken pox, maybe?" Melissa suggested, but Daley shook her head, "He had those when he was five."
"Oh." Melissa peeked her head inside the first aid kit. "How are we going to treat him if we don't know what he has?"
"What other illnesses give you spots?" Nathan asked.
"The Black Death?" Taylor asked, but every one turned to glare at her, though slightly surprised she knew what the Black Death was.
"What about measles?" Nathan tried.
Jackson shook his head. "Could be. But we should be careful, we don't know if it's contagious."
And at this every one covered their mouths with their hands.
Taylor made a muffled sound from behind her hand, then sighed, and took her hand away from her mouth.
"What if…what if it's some weird island disease? It's obviously not an allergic reaction, and it's not chicken pox, and probably not measles."
"Taylor that's such a stupid-" Daley began, but Jackson cut her off.
"You know, that's not a bad idea Taylor." He said, smiling at her.
Taylor smiled. "I know."
Nathan closed his eyes, and then looked at Lex. "You know, that's not such a bad suggestion Taylor."
Melissa whined (A/N Good god, she does that a lot…I'm sorry, I really just don't like her) "How are we supposed to treat him if we don't know what he has? I mean, even if he does have some weird, island disease, we don't know how to treat it."
Daley nodded, and then Lex started stirring.
His eyes snapped shut, and he made a snoring type sound, and rolled over. Every one watched him silently for a few moments, and then his eyes fluttered open.
"Lex!" Daley cried, and Lex flinched. "Oh, sorry." Daley said.
"How are you feeling?" Melissa asked, smiling.
Lex shook his head, and managed to croak out, "Terrible."
"What hurts?" Nathan asked.
"My head, stomach, and throat. And there are things all over my face that hurt." Lex said slowly.
"They don't itch?" Taylor asked uncertainly.
Lex shook his head, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Do you want some water?" Daley asked, and Lex nodded. Jackson helped him sit up, and Taylor handed Daley the watched bottle, who helped Lex take drink some. And then Lex said, "I'm tired", and closed his eyes again, and fell back asleep.
The five teen's left the plane, giving Lex some time to rest.
"What are we going to do?" Daley was asking Melissa.
"I don't know, I think maybe it's best if we let him rest." Melissa answer.
Daley was sitting at the fire, looking miserable, and drawing in the sand with a stick. Nathan was cooking fish on the fire, and Jackson and Melissa were in the forest getting some more water. No one knew where Eric was, so Taylor went off to look for him.
"I feel like this is my fault." Daley said, not looking at Nathan, but still in the sand.
Nathan frowned, and turned the camera on. "God, the first thing I had Daley alone since she kissed me, and I couldn't ask her any thing about it because Lex is sick. Don't get me wrong, I feel bad and all, but I really need to talk to Daley about the kiss."
Nathan looked at her. "Why would you say that, Daley?"
Daley shook her head miserably. "I don't know, it's just that…he's my younger brother and all, I feel like I have to protect him and all, and I feel like I've been doing a really bad job of it."
"No you haven't." Nathan said reassuringly, and Daley leaned over and rested her head on his shoulder.
Melissa and Jackson were very quiet getting water. Neither one of them was saying a word to each other. It was really awkward and weird. Both people were trying to think of things to say, but it wasn't coming, which angered Melissa, because she always knew what to say. A little voice nagged at her in the back of her head 'Ask him about what happened with Taylor!' But she knew she couldn't. Not after what had happened with Lex. It just…wasn't the right time.
Taylor was walking along the beach by herself, thinking about things. She really liked Jackson…but she knew Melissa liked him. And she didn't know who Jackson liked more. Obviously he liked Melissa. Did he even like Taylor?
Taylor sighed. Life was so confusing on the island. It seemed like every one had forgotten about survival, and was worrying about all the personal problems.
Personal problems- that triggered some thing off in Taylor's mind. How pissed was Melissa going to be if she figured out Taylor liked Jackson?
Taylor's mind was spinning. She probably wouldn't be jealous, because Jackson didn't like her.
But Melissa always got jealous when Jackson even looked at another girl.
But Jackson didn't like Taylor.
But, who would like Melissa over Taylor?
Taylor was arguing with herself inside her head. 'Oh good god', she thought. 'Now I'm arguing with myself. I think I'm going insane.'
Just then, Taylor saw Eric, obviously sleeping, with his hat over his head. Shirking out of his duties, obviously.
Taylor stopped, and made a face. She was going over there to give him a piece of her mind. She stomped over to him and kicked some sand in his direction.
"Eric!" She snapped, and fell to her knees beside him, and punched his shoulder. "Eric, wake up! Lex is sick, and there's a lot of work to do-" she paused, waiting for a reaction from him. He didn't move. "Eric!" She snapped again, this time, lifting his hat.
And then she screamed.
Daley heard a scream. She lifted her head off Nathan's shoulder, and they both looked around. "I think that was Taylor", Nathan said, standing up.
"Me too", Daley said, also standing up.
Nathan started walking in the direction of the screaming, and then turned back to Daley. "You stay here; I'm going to go see if she's alright."
Daley nodded, and sat back down, glancing nervously at the plane.
Jackson and Melissa heard Taylor scream from all the way in the forest. Jackson, who was pouring water into a jug, jerked his head up, and Melissa gasped. "That was Taylor."
She said.
Jackson looked up at her, grabbed his water bucket, and started running.
Melissa grabbed hers, and ran after him, lagging behind slightly.
(A/N OK, this is where we end! I hope it wasn't too out of character, and all, and I hope you enjoyed it. Any ways…review! And I'll be happy! Oh, and also, thank you to kayee.143, who gave me the inspiration to write this chappie!)
