Chapter 3 (Sam's POV)
I wake up in the middle of the night full of eager for food; I guess I'll break in the kitchen. It's about 3 am. While I'm getting of my bed I feel something warm underneath me. I turn around only to see that I'm sitting on Freddie. He has a confused look on his face.
"Hi." I smile at him.
"You're sitting in my lap." he says with a sleepy voice.
"Sorry." I apologize and move my but on the bed, sitting next to him.
"What are you doing?" he asks me.
"I was going over to kitchen to get something to eat. What are you doing?"
"Nothing; I just can't sleep."
"But something is wrong. I know you, Benson, so don't try to hide anything from mama."
He looks at me and then to empty space again.
"Is it because I earned you detention for the rest of the year?" he shakes his head and sighs.
"It's because I went to this trip, right? Not Carly?" I ask him.
"No! Why would you think that?"
"Cause, you'd rather have her here than an aggressive tomboy."
"Sam, you know that's not-" I cut him of.
"Look, I'm sorry for the thing with Miss Briggs, okay? But there's no need to beat me over the head with the fact that Carly's perfect and I'm not!"
"I never-" I cut him of again.
"You might have not did while we were on the boat. But when your precious Carly is there you always do that. you say she's pretty, and smart, and funny, and that I should be more like her. But I can't! I guess I'm not good enough for your taste!"
"Would you shut up?!" he shouts and everyone in the room snatches.
"I never called you ugly, stupid or anything. I just said you should act more like Carly because she's-"
"Perfect!" I finish his sentence and walk out of the room.
I look around the hall an see the door that lead to the kitchen. Mama is gonna get herself something to eat! I put my head on the doorknob and push. It's open which is weird. I go into the kitchen and hear some strange noises.
"Who's there?" I ask frightened.
"Sam?" I hear a familiar voice.
"Jonah?"
"Yeah. What are you doing here?" he asks.
"I was just gettin' some food."
"Jonah, honey, who are you talking to?" another familiar voice. It belongs to Valerie who just called my ex-boyfriend 'honey'. I'm still not over Jonah, though I should be, after what he did to me. I open the fridge, take some food and go out of the kitchen, leaving Jonah and Valerie kissing.
I decide to go to the bathroom so I could eat in peace, cause I'm definitely not going back to my room. I enter the bathroom and sit on the first toilet to eat the food I quickly grabbed from the fridge. After I'm done eating I throw my left overs away and wash my face. I look in the mirror. I can't stand the person looking back at me. Why does everyone hate that girl, but loves Carly? They'd like me if I was like her. But that just ain't me. It would be so much easier if I was someone else. Suddenly I feel something hit the boat as i fall to the other side of the room. Speakers on the wall behind me start to squeak. After a few seconds I recognise principal Franklin's voice.
"Everyone, come out on the deck, I repeat, come out on the deck. We hit a big rock and water is slowly running into the ship. We are going to put you in our rescuing boats. Do not panic."
My heart feels like it's gonna explode. I rush to the door and grab the knob. It won't open! OH, MY GOD! I'm stuck in the bathroom! I feel water under my feet. I turn around and see the floor is wet. I hear people running to the deck and screaming. But no one hears me. What the hell am I gonna do?!
~Freddies Pov~
"I hear principal Franklin's voice telling us we're supposed to go on the deck. Wendy, Gibby and Reuben wake up and start running towards the stairs. I follow them. Out on the deck, teachers are putting students in the rescue boats. I go over to Wendy and ask if she has seen Sam. She shakes her head no. I ask Gibby and Reuben, too, but I get the same answers. She isn't anywhere on the deck.
I remember her telling me she's going to the kitchen, so I go back inside the ship, searching for Sam. The floor is already wet. I make my way to the kitchen, where I find nothing. The boat sways as I fall on the floor. That's when I hear a scream coming from, I assume, the girls' bathroom. Yeah, that definitely Sam's voice.
"Help!!!"
"Sam! I'm coming!" I hurry to the door and push the doorknob.
"I can't come in! What's happening?!"
"The door is stuck and I can't get out!" she says like it's the most obvious thing in the world.
"Back away from the door! I'm gonna try and break in!" I yell to her.
~Sam's POV~
I back away from the door as I was told to. The water was already ankle height. I hear a thud and the door shakes. Another thud. Two more. And with a final one the door breaks and he storms in the room giving me a huge hug.
"I'm sorry." I say into his chest and start crying.
"I'm the one who should be sorry." he says and buries his face in my golden curls. I hear someone running to us.
"Guys, come on!" I hear Wendy say. Freddie grabs my hand and leads me to the deck. But... No one's here. There is no rescuing boats left. Gibby, Wendy, Freddie and I stand there helpless.
"What are we gonna do?!" asks Gibby, probably freaking out, just like me.
"I have an idea." says Freddie "You guys wait here." and with that he disappears inside the ship.
~Freddie's POV~
I go back in the ship. As I get to our room I notice the water is knee height. I open our closet and find my suitcase. My mom packed an inflatable boat in case of an emergency, which is right now. I take a box, size of an old computer, and open it. There are two boats and water is already up till my waist. I take the box up to the deck.
"Wendy, Gibby, take this. Sam and I are gonna have this one." I look at the instructions. I find the rope thingy and rashly pull it. The boat blows itself up. Gibby does the same. We hear cracking and look to the left side of the boat. It breaks apart. Water starts flowing onto the boat as it slowly sinks under water. We take our boats and sit in them. That's the last thing I remember us doing.
I really hope you liked it! Review please! I want a lot of reviews so I can start the next chapter. I need some ideas of what they're gonna do on the desert island. So send me a message or leave the idea in your review. Have a nice day!
