A/N: WOO! And SQUEE! Reviews! I feel special…anyway…I shall reply to everyone who gave me a review:
Kizna1200: Thank you, I don't know what it's about either, I'm as lost as you are about what should or might happen, thanks again for reviewing
Trust: Why yes, it is random, for I wrote this while on a sugar high, go everyone who thinks Piggy should die! Get Jack and Ralph together aye? Well, you're the boss
Reita: Thank you, I thought that it was a crap start, but hey if you say it isn't then it isn't. I feel kind of dumb for I don't know what a Mary-Sue character is, can someone tell me? …Just don't think that cause I'm stupid you should stop reading! Yet again, go the people who think Piggy should die! Yes, I don't think I would put Ralph and Roger together, cause he scares me…uh huh, yes he does…but he's still going to be the one to kill Piggy, I have a slight idea why, but I'll have to work out the kinks in it…
The Mad Empty Shell: I shall continue, especially if you guys give me more ideas what you want to happen, even if it's something small and insignificant, give me ideas! I'll try my hardest not to kill Simon, cause I think he's cute and gentle, so I shall try. I hope my story is interesting…really hope.
Lilplayer: Thanks for liking it, I hate Piggy too, I hope you can tell, Yeah, go the classic RalphxJack, they will probably end up together, but no RalphxRoger, cause like I said too someone else, Roger scares me. Lol, Little blonde hotty aye? Can I use that in the story? I'm thinking that maybe Jack should describe him as that…(evil thoughts coming to mind)
All Apologies: Jack and Ralph are my favourite pairing too, thanks for reviewing…but seriously if you have any ideas please, please tell me!
jess027: Thanks, but don't call me Bella, jess. And I don't need you too make me feel loved! I got reviews from others too! And on fanfiction, it's not Sarah, it's grimm018! And stop bringing up Anthony! You evil Mongolian demon child of doom! Well, what do you think should happen?
A/N: I'm not being slack to a reviewer, it's just she's a good friend from school…an annoying good friend from school!
The deal
Jack's POV
Simon liked Ralph. Simon liked Ralph more than friends. It irked me to the core. Ralph should be mine and mine alone. But past that feeling I knew I was threatened, because Simon was one of Ralph's best friends. Meaning Ralph already liked Simon a lot. Meaning that Ralph was more likely to choose Simon. I sigh and lean back against a tree. Simon told me about ten minutes ago, and I still haven't answered him. He's looking scared. Like he thinks I'm going to kill him cause he likes the same guy I like. But I don't think I can go that far.
"Well then, I guess we'll just have to see who Ralph chooses" I mutter slowly. Simon perks up at this, happy I'm not angry. He's wrong there though. I am angry, angry as hell. But to beat up Simon wasn't going to make Ralph like me, more like make Ralph hate me.
"No go ladies" someone sneers. I turn quickly. Roger had walked into view, calmly putting his hands behind his head. Roger's body had toned up a lot in the last couple of months, making his body the third best. And that was an annoying factor, it meant that Roger could beat me, and I don't like to be beaten. Not at all.
"I don't see any ladies, Roger. And what are you talking about?" I snap, since the boys of this island had become gay, Roger had been calling everyone ladies. I don't get it though. He likes guys too; I know that for a fact. So where does he get of calling us ladies?
"Well, I was just practicing my hunting skills and I happened to hear an interesting conversation. The fat-so just told Ralph that us boys were all gay. He had no idea. And his face seemed rather…disgusted really. So I don't think you guys are going to be getting your nails into that one anytime soon." Roger smiled smugly. Finding this situation rather amusing.
I could feel my stomach lurch and then tighten uncomfortably. Ralph didn't know? Ralph wasn't gay? Ralph doesn't like guys? This turns my perspective upside down. A quick glance at Simon tells me that this news upsets him too.
"I was thinking that maybe, Ralph would become a poof now that the option is upon him. So I wouldn't worry too much about that little factor. What I think is more important is that you guys should have to work for Ralph's affection. Then whoever wins over Ralph's pure little heart, keeps him, while the other backs off completely. Well, what do you say Jackie? Simone?" Roger sneers sadistically. I look at Simon who looks thoroughly…pissed. Simon was always calm and in control, so to see him angry was just…amazing.
"You can't just deal Ralph around like that! He's a human being, like you and me! That's just stupid and inhumane! I…I can't believe you even suggested it!" Simon snarled. My already tight gut squirmed with shame. Why didn't I say that? It would prove my feelings for Ralph.
"Oh come off it Simon" Roger snapped, no longer thinking of Simon as feminine. "Wouldn't it be worth it to Ralph all to yourself? Jack to just vanish out of Ralph's life?" Roger stated convincingly. It scared me. Why did Roger want this deal this much?
Simon glared furiously. "I can't believe I'm doing this. But I'll go along with this deal of yours" Simon glowered. Shame and anger showing in his eyes. Simon glanced at me.
"I agree too," I mumble. I go to add something on to my statement when I hear footsteps. I ignore what Simon and Roger are muttering about and listen intently. It's probably just Piggy. He's been attempting to sneak around lately. But listening closer, the footsteps are different. Piggy normally has heavy clumsy steps. These sounds are fairly quiet, hence the fact that Roger and Simon haven't heard. Quiet means light. Light and steady. Ralph. It's embarrassing to admit that I can tell his footprints apart from everyone else's.
Then he walks into the clearing. Roger and Simon go silent and stare. Damn Ralph. Why did you have to be perfect? With your well-toned, golden body, sun kissed messy blonde hair, curious grey eyes wondering over me, Simon and Roger. I feel colour rise to my face as his eyes wonder over me. Quickly glancing away, I notice that Simon is also avoiding eye contact. Roger walks calmly over to Ralph and puts an arm around his shoulders. Sending a pang of jealousy through me.
"Hey, Ralph. Did you hear anything we said?" Roger said smugly. Ralph looked at him suspicious, if what Roger said was true, and Ralph had just found out that they were all gay, then he had every reason to be suspicious and even scared.
"No" Ralph stated glancing uneasily at Roger. "This doesn't have to do with me does it?" Ralph smirked, catching on. Roger smiled too, not exactly pleasant though.
"Maybe, maybe, so your not just a pretty face" Roger grinned. My cheeks burn brighter. Then I have to stop from smirking as Ralph side steps away from Roger. Looking slightly scared.
"Thank you, I guess. Well, I just came to see where you guys got to, but now that you're here…and safe…I'm gonna go" Ralph stammered and quickly turned around, trying not to run. As soon as Ralph was out of eye site, Roger cracked up laughing.
"Roger, you scared the living day lights out of him". I snap angrily, hating the damn fear in Ralph's eyes. Roger laughs again. I throw the dirtiest glare I can manage in his direction. I jog after Ralph. He sure got far. He must be in a great hurry to get away. Away from the fags. My stomach flips and tightens. When I get back to the platform, the first thing I notice is the articles of clothing tossed aside by naked swimmers. I look up in time to see Ralph dive gracefully into the crystal water. It was constantly said that Ralph was most at home in the water. I walk over to the edge of the lagoon, and sit down, dropping my feet into the warm water. Ralph comes up for air, flipping blonde hair out of his face. I smirk. He was always perfect.
"Ralph!" I call out and he whips around, grey eyes startled. They don't settle, and that makes my stomach squirm…again. He glides over to me hesitantly.
"Yeah?" He's about a foot away now, looking up at me uncertainly. In the corner of my eyes I can see some of the other biguns looking in Ralph's direction, they have every reason too, as well.
"I just heard what you found out, about all the boys being…you know" I mutter, unsure of his reaction. Ralph looks away, a rosy colour showing on his cheeks.
"Yeah, it's really…freaky actually" Ralph mutters, staring at the water. Oh my god, he's homophobic! I can feel my world crashing around me. "Especially since, we swim naked. Is it just me, or is everyone staring at me?" Ralph smiles slightly, trying to make it seem funny.
"Yeah, they're all staring at you" I smile casually. He grins. A grin that was pure and warm. God damn you Ralph! Why must you be so perfect! God damn it Jack, you're repeating yourself. "Wanna get out of here?" I ask. I hope my voice wasn't as shaky as I feel. Ralph nods happily, moving next to me he effortlessly hoists himself out and walks over to his disregarded shorts. Turning around, I hope I'm not blushing. He starts to walk along the sand. I fall into step next to him. He smiles into the distance, probably glad that I'm not coming onto him, like Roger seemed to be.
"So…how is Piggy?" I mumble, looking away. Ralph chuckles.
"I still can't believe you guys stopped talking to each other. How long has it been? A month?" He smiles cheerfully. Then stops; something else coming to mind. I stopped talking to Piggy when I started fancying guys. He has some weird little habits, that Piggy. Spying on boys while they're making out being one of them. Just because he won't ever experience that…or maybe he wants to learn how to kiss. Ew, someone kissing that load of lard. The only person who'd ever do that would be Ralph. Out of pity only. I hope it would only be out of pity. Ralph and Piggy together rattled me to the bone. Damn that fat arse. That whale. Ralph suddenly trips, grabbing my arm to steady himself. I grunt as I get pulled down. Landing on top of him, my blue eyes travel to his grey. They seem almost fearful. I can feel his warm breathe against my lips. Desire about to take control. I lean slightly closer.
"You can get off me now" Ralph snaps. I shake my head and roll of his slender body. Ralph, jumps to his feet with ease. Seeming distant and cold. Shit. Simon was definitely going to win this little deal. I climb to my feet and turn to him.
"Sorry Ralph, I just went like…mind blank" I chuckle. Trying not to hit myself. Ralph looks up hopefully at that. Smiling slightly.
"That's okay. Hey, race you to that bird over there?" he smiles happily
"It'll fly away" I state looking at him with a raised eye brow.
"So?" He smirks, I can't help but smile.
"Nah, that's stupid, what's the point- go!" and I bolt in the direction of the bird. Ralph gasped; outraged. But I can hear his foot falls behind me. And it felt great, knowing that he was running closer, and not running away.
