Now on with the story...

Introduction

Hilary played with the deep sea green water on the shore as she splashed it with her hands. Kai have gone to collect some firewoods from the depths of the jungle; leaving her on the beach to keep a close eye in the ocean for any signs of boats or ship.

It was getting dark as the sun have already set. Since her wrist watch was broken in the accident, Hilary could only calculate roughly that it may be around 7 pm. Although her comrade here was a real jerk but she was at least thankful of him for building a shelter for them with the cluster of trees. Being military trained has its benefits after all. He have also caught several fish for them to eat for dinner.

She admitted that she was really useless as she have done practically nothing till now, except for plucking some wild fruits and helping to gather the wooden sticks together.

It was at this moment that she realized that she didn't even know the name of the man she was struck with for almost a day.

How ironical!

Her ears caught on the fluttering steps of the pointed shoes, informing her of his return. She turned her head to acknowledge him as she got up & walked towards the handsome man.

"Can I ?"

She trailed off as she extended her hand to offer any assistance. After musing for a while he handed her the bundle of sticks as he walked inside their makeshift house.

" Burn the fire and roast these fish!"

His tone was ordering..commanding as he left her with the heavy weights of the wood and got inside.

What an asshole!...

She glared at the back of his head as she managed to accommodate the woods in one place and desperately attempted to start fire. Although she has never been to any survival camp before, but she managed to light the fire. Hilary picked up the fishes placed in the heap of leaves and roasted them.

After few minutes when she was fully convinced that the fish was edible enough, she walked towards the hut to wake up Kai, only to be greeted with the sounds of calm breath. He was sound sleep & Hilary resisted the urge to aww at his cute face.

Banishing those thoughts from her mind, she shook his shoulders gently as he yawned and snuggled his head in her lap. She blushed at the awkward situation but shook him again with more force as he finally opened his eyes.

"Hey wake up! Sleepyhead."

She said as he grumbled in annoyance & Hilary almost felt guilty for waking him from his peaceful slumber.

Poor guy! He have been awake since last night; unlike her, as she got good enough hours to sleep yesterday. But she knew very well, that he would get even more angry if she didn't wake him up.

Kai seemed lost for a second before his eyes landed on the brunette in front & he scowled heavily.

She rolled her eyes at his expression as she spoke aloud.

"Fish is roasted. Come on out!"

She informed as she got up with him following her out.

Kai was surprised when he tasted the food as he thought that she would mess up for sure.

But Hilary have burned it adequately.

They ate in silence as Hilary's eyes kept flickering at the man in front. He was a real treat to her sore eyes that's sure.

Her eyes travelled from his dark eyes to his sharp nose and chiseled jaws. His muscles were in right position as she stared at the hard curve of his arms. With his jacket missing, she could make out his strong abs visible from the grey muscled shirt.

"Stop drooling!"

The sudden stoic voice snapped her out of her wild fantasies as Hilary hid her blush by gazing on the floor.

'Get a grip girl! You are engaged for God's Sake! Think about Tyson... '

Kai smirked as he saw several emotions pass through the woman in front. Although she was troublesome, but it was rather amusing to observe her antics once in a while.

Like just this evening, when she was chased by a crab & jumped up & down like a wild cave man. Or her lame attempts to cut down some woods, as she could barely lift it.

She also have a severe problem of mood swing as she was pissed at him for a moment then gawking at him another.

He could never understand woman...

Kai shook his head when he realized he was thinking a bit too much about her. Maybe it was due to the fact that she was the only other human in the island besides him.

"Ahem..."

He looked up as he saw her trying to get his attention and gave a blank look.

"I was wondering since we are struck here for a while, why not get to know each other. You know, name and initial greetings etc..."

She said almost shyly as he narrowed his eyes at her and continued to eat his fish.

Hilary gritted her teeth when she realized he didn't answer back, instead chewed on his meat as though she never spoke anything in the first place. She huffed & resumed eating as she was very much convinced that she won't get any answer out if him.

After finishing their meal and refreshing, they both headed back to their huts and settled on the opposite corners. Hilary was wide awake as she lay sprawled over the heaps of green leaves.

"Kai Hiwatari!"

"Huh?"

She glanced in his direction as he kept his gaze focused over the rooftop.

"My name. You asked it before."

It was then she realized what he was telling & smiled. Kai huh...nice name.

She pouted a bit when she remembered that he haven't answered her right away.

"Why didn't you say so when I asked you outside? "

She asked with a hint of displeasure as he tilted his head to stare right into her ruby eyes.

"Its rude to talk while eating."

He stated firmly as she sighed.

He was too much of an organized and mechanical man; perks of being in the military camps maybe..

"Oh..well I am Hilary Tachibana. "

She introduced herself with a wide smile as he nodded.

On noticing that he didn't mind a conversation with her now, she decided to talk some more as she was getting extremely bored being struck here.

" So..You are an army man?"

She asked while perching on her elbows to get a good look at him as he shook his head.

"Ex army officer. I quite two years ago."

She was taken aback when he chose to answer her and slightly confused for his resignation but didn't say anything.

"Well I am a journalist in American news channel Zx."

She announced proudly as he snorted dryly.

"Ya, I figured that out by your nosy behavior."

She scoffed at his reply but didnt bother to start another argument as she was pretty worn out and didn't have much energy to fight with him for something this silly.

She turned her body and closed her eyes as she slipped off in her slumber.
