2AM. Still not asleep. They both tossed and turned in their sleeping bags. The crackling of the fire nearby was calming, Heather laid awake watching it, it was slowly dying down. Alejandro was next to her, he saw her propped up on her elbows, staring at it. He wanted to so badly confront her about the voting incident, but he couldn't bring himself to, he was hurt. He carefully concentrated on her gray orbs, he saw the orange of the fire in them, it described her a lot, she was fierce and fiery. What the day would hold no one knew, it was going to be a surprise. Chris and Chef layed opposite Heather and Alejandro, Chris sobbbed loudly about his spa yet again. He couldn't stop what the teens would do now, they went to their groups they had formed now, Heather andAlejandro, Cody and Sierra. Heather and Alejandro both pretending like everything was absolutely fine with them. Chris knew what happened between them, he was awfully surprised that the two teens didn't claw each others eyes out while they slept next to one another. "Can't sleep?" Alejandro turned on his side, leaning on his arm. He could feel Heather gazing at him, he wanted her to do that more often, gaze at him lovingly.

Heather turned to face him, she saw how tired he looked, like he hadn't slept in days, or even weeks, the competition had probably taken a toll on him, along with voting him off. How badly she wanted to take it all back, to listen to him and vote Cody off. "No." She simply answered. She was far too tired, but Alejandro's voice was soothing as of now, it wasn't aggresive nor was it demanding. Just peaceful, as it should be.

"Too much on your mind?" Alejandro knew exactly what was on her mind. His heart was broken, although he would never admit something that cowardly and stupid to the girl who broke it. He couldn't stay away from her. "We only have two more days." Alejandro reassured, he didn't know why, but he wasn't looking forward to this ending. Seeing her smile and laugh everyday, he liked it. At the same time, he couldn't wait to go back home and sleep for a whole weekend, he needed it.

Two days. It was so soon. Heather felt the tinge of pain take over her stomach again, and was sure she was going as pale as a ghost as of now. "Yeah, I'm over-thinking." She wanted to hit herself for letting her guards down so easily, Alejandro fed of vulnerable girls. He did the unexpected. He placed his arm around her waist, pulling her in closer to his warm, protecting body. She felt 100 times more warmer, ahd it felt welcoming, warming, but also sickening, this boy she could never trust was doing this. She felt his breath on her neck.

"You're mine." He whispered. She wasn't sure if she was suppose to hear it, it was as quiet as a bug speaking. So, he was possesive. Her cheeks flushed a deep, crimson colour as he stroked her hair, putting her to sleep. The thought of competing against him was keeping Heather up, how could she? He was invinsible and a strong player. She wasn't even excited about tomorrow, she feared going to sleep, she would wake up with Alejandro, and be scared.

"Goodnight, Alejandro." Heather teased him, grabbing his hand and placing hers inside. She hated herself. But loved this. It was hard. He said goodnight back to her, and kissed her forehead. What were they? Confusing as hell.

Heather awoke to Chris going through the rubble of the remains of the death trap that he adored. Alejandro's arm was still wrapped around her, and she liked it. But she quickly got up before anyone saw, the embarrassment would sink in soon. Right now all she needed was some coffee and toast to wake up to. But she wouldn't. Chris offered her some bread with jam sloppily slapped on it, she accepted his offer she did need to eat. Alejandro awoke soon after, sitting down eating the breakfast Chris has offered everyone. He continued crying near his plane.

"So, shall we continue the game?" Alejandro shrugged.

"Yeah, I second that, totally." Heather agreed with Alejandro.

"As usual you two are thinking of nothing but yourselves." Chris shook his head at Alejandro and Heather.

Chris had announced we would meet the teens in Hawaii, and threw them GPS systems. Cody and Sierra agreed to work together. "And this must be the part where you ask me to join forces." Heather smirked at Alejandro, the moment from last or still stuck in her head.

"Why would I do that?" Alejandro growled. It set Heather back.

"Because we're the final two, right? It was like a pact. You wanted..." She as cut off.

"I know what you did." Alejandro hissed in her face. She saw how dark and fiery his eyes were now. He knew.

"Umm... Could you be a bit more specific? I've done a lot." Heather played it off, she wasn't going to let Alejandro know she voted for him. SHe couldn't say it.

He pulled the voting card out. "You voted for me!" He shouted, he sounded hurt, broken, she'd never seem him like this before. "Prepare for the full force that is hurricane Alejandro. Next stop, Hawaii, and I sincerely hope you don't make it." Alejandro stormed off, each step was heavier and angier than the last. Heather stood completely frightened. Alejandro yelled at her was a more common occurence now.

"Oh, like you wouldn't do the same!" Heather yelled to his back. Too late, he was already walking away from her.

"Heather had a way of making my focus slip." Alejandro confssed. "Like a too small speedo." He shuddered. "This race is my redemption. as long as I travel alone She can't distract me with her clever words, or her distressful eyes, or the way she tucks her hair behind her cute, little ear lobes..." He slapped his face. "Focus!"

"Focus!" He yelled, slapping his face leaving a raw red mark.

"You better focus because it is on! I am going to smoke you like breakfast!" Heather yelled into her walkie talkie.

"Bring it!" Alejandro yelled back, the veins on his neck popping out. He was frustrated with her, after all the obstacles they had gone through, this is how they would end it.

"Blah blah blah. Guess what? I can just turn you off!" Heather yelled back to him.

"You're an expert at turning poeple off!" Alejandro yelled back to her, she was offended by that remark. Without another thought, Heather turned her walkie talkie off.

Heather was finally away from Alejandro, a train to Mexico was her life safer, until she heard his smooth voice. "You" They both spoke in disgust. He got some sick satisfaction of releasing the mutated Ezekial on her. It ended up with Heather being on top of the train, last carriage. She knew what he would do next. "You wouldn't push a girl off a speeding train!" She shouted, he could barely hear her.

"You're the one who always pushes too far." He was being scarier than usual, through out the whole competition he was scary to her, right now, he was horribly scary. He jumped down from the carriage, unbuckling his belt, and pulling the carriage connection off. "I prefer to pull!" He yelled, as the carriage became distant, Heather jumped.

"Oh no you don't! This is my train." As it started to hail she jumped, kicking Alejandro in the face as he said he'd miss her legs most of all. "The onle one who is leaving is you!" She climbed atop the train, kicking him again. Alejandro and heather were forced to sing a song, as it hailed, demanded by Chris. This was it.

Heather was a sure in the finale, Alejandro-not so much. He was up against Cody, and depending on the challenge, Alejandro had this in the bag. The total drama cast were set up in a fancy Hawaiian Hotel, bedroom to themselves, anyone could visit. Chris had really gone all out with this. Heather had sat on her double bed, in wrapped in a towel. Alejandro had crept in, leaning on the door drame, arms crossed. "Can I help you?" Heather raised her eye brows, annoyed.

"I didn't vote for you." Alejandro walkedin, sitting on the bed next to her. "I voted for Cody." Alejandro fiddled with his thumbs, not sure what else he could confess to her, it was their final night together. "Anything you want to get off your chest?" Alejandro looked at her sincerely. Heather couldn't think of anything to say.

"I know you doctored the photo." She blurted out, it wasn't really a confession, but it was close enough. "You wanted me gone." She sounded hurt. "It was fair game, but after I took you to first class, why would you do that?"

Alejandro was at loss for words. "You're far too strong, a threat even." he admitted. He hated that he had said that, but it was true, she was too strong, too much of a threat for him. "Goodbye Heather." He got up and left, without even turning back to look at her. The moment was heated and heartbreaking. Tomorrow was the day, the winner would be announced, and to say the least, Heather was terrified.

SO CLOSE. When I saw this episode I was paranoid that they wouldn't get together and couldn't sleep and ugh tomorrow's chapter will bring back such memories, even though this season happened 3 years ago or so.
