I told you I'd be back this weekend so here I am! So I have only gotten one review for my last two chapters... I'm not sure what to think about that. So please review! I hope you enjoy!

MAX'S POV

I can't believe I'm stuck liiking for food while Lulu is searching the jungle for shelter.

When did she become the reliable one? Aren't guys supposed to do the hard work?

If Lulu know what I was thinking right now, I'd be dead.

Let's just say she thinks women are just as capable as men if not more so.

In some cases that is true.

Like Lulu, for example, is an amazing hiker. Which is why I should not be so freaked out about her walking around in this jungle, but I still am.

Men are supposed ti be overprotective even when it annoys the crap out of every girl we meet.

The difference between the viewings being that we think we are just caring enough, and they think we're caring just too much.

This is a prime reason why we will never understand women.

My thoughts were interrupted by a blonde hair, blue eyed, absessed chick named Mia.

"Wow! Max! You are really good at this gathering thing."

I paste a smile on my face, "Thanks, you're not bad myself."

"Aww, thanks! You're sooo sweet!" She says, rubbing my arm. "And so strong! You should be looking for shelter."

I remove her hand, "Well, this is the number I was given."

"Oh, right! Well, the resources you provide us with should not be wated on gathering."

And with that she walked away, swinging her hips a little more than necessary.

Why do I always attract the crazies?

I continued to pick berries, letting my mind drift to what Lulu might be doing.

I can just see her now, walking through the jungle looking for caves.

In reality...

LULU'S POV

...Let's just say everything wasn't so perfect.

I don't think I have EVER sweated this much in my life.

The pure fact that we found bamboo on an island, considering Africa or Australia is the closest place with bamboo to Hawaii. Not to mention we have to cut it all down and move it back to the campsite.

Now was the time when I was thinking I should have switched jobs with Max. That wasn't going to happen. I am going to prove to him that women are just as capable as men, if not more so.

We had an assembly line running from the bamboo clearing to the campsite. This barely made things easier.

Sure each person didn't have to carry each piece as far, but sometimes somebody got held up, and we would have to stop and wait.

Plus some people still didn't know how to hike in a jungle.

I was toward the end of the line so I could help the remaining fire wood gatherers start staking the bamboo for a hut. There was no way the shelter would be ready before nightm and the food finders still weren't back.

The sun was starting to set, and we only have one wall up. I guess it could help if there was wind.

Actually, wind would be a blessing. The humidity is a killer, and a little rain wouldn't hurt either.

Pacing was the only thing I could do not to freak out when the food group still hasn't come back.

Alex and I took the first guard shift while the rest slept.

"Hey, Little Lulu, maybe you should sit before you dig a trench to wherever is beneath us."

"Sorry, Alex," I chuckle. "I'm just really worried about Max."

"You love him don't you?"

"I nod my head, "Yeah. Yeah, I do."

"Well, how long have you two been dating?" Alex asks.

I look down at my feet.

"Three days."

"Wow! That's a little fast."

"I know," I say, looking into Alex's eyes. "But I spent almost every hour of every day with him for almost two years. He's my best friend."

Alex smiled, "You are going to have a happy life together."

He grabbed my hand and kissed it.

"Thanks, Alex. That is if he ever decides to come back," I add, looking into the jungle.

"They'll be back. Don't worry, Little Lulu."

I give him a tight smile and turn back to the jungle, crossing my arms across my chest.

You better be alright. Please, please be alright...

There's that chapter! I hope you guys enjoyed! Thanks for reading, and please review!
