Chapter 18

Jackson raped his arm around her. The two stood there kissing until they decided to head in for the night. When they walked into the plane everyone else was there, asleep. Jackson and Meliss both got comfortable and fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning was Eric's, Jackson's and Melissa's first full day back. The three really missed the plane hard floor. Everyone got back to a usual day. After breakfast Eric got started lugging water again, Melissa got back to boiling that water, Jackson got back to cutting down heavy trees and lifting other heavy objects, Nathan and Daley went off on a fruit suffarie, Lex went to his garden, and Taylor was on the beach charging the batteries.

Taylor walked onto the beach with her towel. Today she did not have her swim suit on, she was just wearing shorts and a tank top. Before she got started charging the batteries she thought:

"The night before Eric, Mel, and Jackson left was tense. But Eric knows I have feelings for hem and Eric has feelings for me , does he? Maybe I should talk to hem." thought Taylor as she set down her towel.

Taylr then put the charger and batteries on the towel, so they wouldn't get ruined by the sand. She then walked over towards the well.

Eric was on his way to the well with two empty jugs. As he walked he thought:

" I like Tyalor alot, she's funny, cool, pretty, careing and a totally sain person. But I like island Taylor. As soon as we get back she's probaly going to go back to her same spoiled, dramaqueen, mean girl. How can I trust her? Can I?" thought Eric.

Suddenly Eric heard someone yelling his name.

"Eric! Eric! Where are you?" called Taylor.

Eric new it was Taylor right away.

"Over here Taylor." called Eric in a annoyed tone.

Taylor finally made it to Eric.

"Eric, umm we gotta talk about well the night before you left and that well it's true that I have feelings for you too." said Taylor.

"Taylor, not now." groaned Eric in a loud voice.

"Eric, why not?" asked Taylor.

"I have to clear my head, I have alot on my mind." said Eric

"Eric thats no excuse everyone around here always has alot on there mind." protested Taylor.

"You wana no why then?" asked Eric.

"Yea why?" asked Taylor as she folded her arms.

"Becasue I don't know if I can trust you." stated Eric as he setteled the two jugs on the ground.

"Why can't you trust me?" asked Taylor

"Becasue I like island Taylor. The Taylor thats sweet, cares for others, works hard, pretty. If we become a couple, we can only become one if we get off the island cause a relationship will be too complicated here. If we go back home how do I know that your not going to become the spoiled brat, dramaqueen, mean, rude girl you were?" yelled Eric.

Taylor's mouth was open in shock.

Eric looked at her for a few minutes the nhe picked up his jugs and walked off to the spring.

"That was nice Eric, real nice!" smirked Taylor.

Taylor was so pisted. When Eric was out of sight she could deel hot tears rolling down her cheeks. Taylor couldn't stop the tears. She then quickly wiped them and ran into the jungle far enoff away from camp, Eric, and the latrine. She sat on a rock and cried. She was hurt, more hurt than ever.

Meanwhile Daley and Nathn were out on the fruit sufarie. Things were quiet while they were searching for the fruit. Finally Nathan spoke.

"Daley, are you going to?' asked Nathan.

"Am I going to what?" asked Daley as she kept walking.

"Are you going to ask Eric if he wants to be leader like we walked about?" asked Nathan.

Daley stopped and faced hem.

"Alot has happened, I've been having douhts about it, but I am going to ask hem anyway." said Daley.

"Daley, Eric's different now ever since he went into the jungle, he might have changed." said Nathan.

'Yea right and maybe pigs can fly." smirked Daley as she turned and kept walking. Nathan just rolled his eyes and followed her.

Meanwhile Melissa was boiling the water. She kept thinking about last night and how Jackson and her made out. She know's that they can't make out again until they get rescued, but she knows that her and Jackson are best friends and they are going to be close.

As Melissa was boiling the water that hot morning, Jackson came up the camp with 3 fish.

"Hey Jackson, nice catch." said Melissa.

"Thanks." said Jackson.

"Want some water you look hot, I mean from the sun and stuff not that you're hot, but i am not saying your not hot cause you are like hot." asid Melissa as she blushed as she handed Jackson the water.

"Umm thanks Mel." laughed Jackson as he took a sip of the water.

"It's killing you too." asked Jackson as he looked up from his drink.

"Yea, why can't rescue come already?" asked Melissa.

"I don't know, but it will." said Jackson.

"I know." said Melissa.

Jackson then leaned in and kissed her. Melissa kissed hem back. They were making out. They couldn't stop, it was day and anyone could come bye. Jackson the nlet go and said.

"We gotta control ourselves."

"I know, starting now." said Melissa as she folded her arms.

As Jackson put is water bottle down on the ground he chuckled and said:

"Boy I think it just got hotter out."

Melissa smiled.

Meanwhile Taylor was still crying when she heard a voice behind her.

"Taylor, are you ok?"
