I haven't updated in two weeks O____o. Hey! You, there! Stop throwing rocks at me! I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry! No need to get physical of me! Anyway I finally got the time to actually write something. So here you go, chapter 5 :)
Chapter 5 (Sam's POV)
"That's not true."
"Come on." I continued "I lost every guy to Carly. Jonah, Shane, Griffin, and even you, nub!"I whined.
"You little sad about that, sweetie?" he said flirtatiously. I chuckled and pushed him down playfully. He laughed with me and then looked to Reuben who was snoring loudly. Poor guy didn't get any food... Like I care.
"Well, we know who you will definitely not lose to Carly." Freddie said jerking his head over to Reuben. I, once again, chuckled. What's wrong with me?
"Anyway, we should get some sleep." he suggested.
"Why? It's not like our parents are here to say we must go to bed. Although, we don't, actually, have a bed, so..." I trailed of laughing. He joined me, but a minute after he spoke:
"I think tomorrow's gonna be a tough day so we need to rest. We'll have to find food and make some kind of a shelter or something." he stated looking back up at the stars. I sighed as I turned my head away from him and put my chin in between my knees.
"I guess you're right." I told him. He lay down on the sand and closed his eyes. I did the same thing. Soon I was swallowed by the world of dreams.
I was running through a hallway. The walls were white, like they are in a hospital. I turned my head to see who I was running from. She had red hair and wore glasses, running in a ridiculous shirt, her pointy boobs were jumping up and down as she shouted my name over and over again. It was absolutely clear that I had a nightmare. Chased by a furious Miss Briggs, I bumped up into someone.
At first, the person was only a shadow, but then the color started making the person familiar. His eyes and his hair shared the same chocolate brown color. His right hand was wrapped around my waist and he was staring at me with a sad puppy look. I slightly turned my head to see Miss Briggs marching towards us. Everything seemed to be in slow motion, every single move. I then looked back to Freddie fearfully but he hasn't even moved his eyes from me.
Briggs started growing much more bigger as she rushed to us. I wasn't able to move and Freddie didn't even try to do anything. Instead he whispered to me "Close your eyes". I slowly breathed out and closed my eyes cause I obviously had no other choice. Something bad was about to happen. I could feel a strong cold wind blowing but I didn't dare to open my eyes. The wind settled down after a few moments and I slowly opened my eyes.
Freddie was still looking at me the same way. When I looked around, dare I say, I was amazed. We were in a wonderful place. Everything was bright and simply beautiful. Green grass underneath us, we were rounded by only 3 meters tall trees. There was a little exit that leaded to an opening. I could hear the birds singing happily over there.
I looked over to Freddie who was now smiling at me, his lips lightly parted. He moved his hand from my waist to my hand and lightly squeezed it as he dragged me out on the opening. His smile grew bigger, and mine did, too. There was a tiny waterfall and a little lake beneath it, so many different kinds of flowers as well as animals like bunnies, butterflies and wolves playing happily, totally oblivious about the world around them.
Freddie spun me around and, as soon as I knew, we were dancing. I felt something I only have felt a few times in my life. Happiness. Maybe this wasn't such a nightmare, after all. Sun was shining and the air had a fresh scent. Freddie, then, pulled me closer and put his forehead on top of mine. He looked so deep into my eyes that, for a second, I thought he'll enter them. He brought his face even closer to mine than it was before. I could feel his breath on my lips and knew what was about to happen. He was gonna kiss me. But did I really want him to do that? There was no time for me to answer that question, cause I woke up.
I looked around and saw it was dawn. Everyone was still asleep. I stood up and decided I should wash or something cause I was stinky. The sea was the only choice I had. For now, hopefully. I walked behind some kind of crag. I took off all of my clothes before getting in the cold sea water. I turned around and what I saw made me scream.
Freddie's POV
I woke up while it was still dawn. Reuben was asleep but Sam wasn't there. Weird. Wasn't she scared of being alone on this island? Maybe something happened to her. I have to find her. I stood up, shaking off the sand that was in my hair, and saw footprints on the ground. They lead to a crag. I rushed over to it. When I approached it a saw a pile of clothes laying on it. They were Sam's PJ's.
That's when I heard a not so girlie scream. I looked to where it came from. Oh. My. God. Sam was standing there ,naked, in the water, covering her breasts with her hands (though she didn't know I could still see them), screaming. My eyes widened.
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU STARING AT, DORK!?!" she yelled, blushing "HAVEN'T YOU EVER HEARD OF A THING CALLED PRIVACY?!"
I quickly turned around. I must have been red as a tomato by now. What the heck just happened?! Did I just walk in on Sam naked?! I so got myself beaten up. I might as well kill myself right now. It'll at least hurt less. I'm such an idiot! What have I gotten myself into?
I ran over to Reuben who was now awake. I assume Sam's screaming and yelling woke him up.
"What happened?" he asked anxiously, getting up.
"I walked in on Sam while she was naked!" I whined "She's gonna kill me!"
"I wish I were you." he said.
"What?! Why?!" I asked confused. My destiny is to be all broken when Sam attacks me and he wants to be me?!
"Well, first thing, cause I'd get to see Sam naked, and second, cause I'd get to actually have dinner last night." he winked when he pronounced the word naked.
"Hey, dweeb!" I heard the blonde's voice coming from behind me. Uh-oh. This can't be good. I turned around and saw her coming towards me quickly. She had already put on her clothes but they were a bit wet. When she was 1 foot away from me, she raised her left hand and, with a furious expression on her face, slapped my right cheek.
"I deserved that." I said. She lifted her right hand and slapped my left cheek.
"That one, too." I said quieter. Her left hand hit my right cheek once again.
"Okay." I mumbled. My left cheek.
"I'm so sorry." right cheek.
"Sam." left.
"Please." right.
"Stop." her final slap on my left cheek was so hard I almost fell to the side. Now my cheeks were very red...
She shoved me throwing insults at me. She punched my shoulder and I gasped from the pain. Then she pushed me to the ground and threw branches and small rocks at me. One little rock hit my 'you know what' so I had to scream. She finally stopped. Reuben was staring at her with admiration written across his face. I stood up slowly trying not to make Sam do something else to me. She looked like she was ready to dig my eyes out.
"I think we all need to calm down a little bit." said Reuben, obviously noticing the expression on Sam's face.
"Let's just go search for food and wood to make a shelter, okay?" he continued. Sam finally took her eyes off of me and spoke to Reuben:
"Fine. You go catch fish from the sea, dip head, I'll go look for branches and wood and you, dorky perv, go look for food." she decided. I didn't want to disagree with her cause God knows what she'd do to me.
Reuben lifted the legs of his pants up and went into water. Sam went into the jungle without saying a word to anyone. And that leaves me alone on the beach. I sighed and went into the jungle, too.
I found some kind of wild strawberries. Shrugging, I picked them up. I walked a bit further in the forest. There were a lot of different birds sitting on a huge tree. Right next to that tree was a little papaya tree. It was rounded by beautiful red, pink and yellow flowers called hibiscus. Maybe this wasn't such a bad place, after all.
I walked to the papaya tree with strawberries in my left hand. It wasn't so hard to reach the papayas cause the tree was small. I harvested a few and began walking to a banana tree. I picked the tree nicest ones and went back to the beach. On my way there, a bird flew an inch above me and, of course, I fell. Thank God, no fruit were hurt.
As I exited the jungle I saw Reuben jumping around in the water, yelling. He was probably trying to catch a fish. Sam wasn't here yet. I wondered what was taking her so long. She was probably just wandering around the jungle, trying to get in trouble. I decided I wouldn't go look for her. Not after what happened last time.
I lay the fruit aside on a rock. Reuben was now running to the left shouting angry 'stops' after the fish he was catching. He then threw himself down in the water, grabbing onto something.
"I have one!" he yelled and held a pretty big fish above his head. He ran over to me and put the, now dead, fish next to my fruit. He, then, went back to the water, but now deeper. The water was up till his chest and he started splashing around again. That's when I saw Sam coming from the jungle. She was carrying a quite big amount of wood, logs and branches. I rushed to her so I could help her. When I came to her I heard a scream coming from Reuben. I turned around.
"Help! A shark!" he shouted. I looked back to Sam who just rolled her eyes.
"Here, hold this." she said calmly while handing me the logs she had found. I took them and watched her running to the water, grabbing a very panicky Reuben and dragging him out. He was still screaming. I smiled at the sight.
I walked to the rock where the fish and the fruit were and put the logs down. Reuben was now crying and Sam let out an annoyed 'urgh'. She came to me and looked at what we had found or, in Reuben's case, caught. She then looked at me, blushing. I guess she was ashamed of standing next to me after I saw her naked. Well, I have to admit, I liked what I saw. Yeah, I better not repeat that sentence ever again, especially not out loud.
When he calmed down, Reuben went back to catching fish. On the other hand, Sam and I started to make a shelter. It had to be big cause there was three of us. We put the logs on the floor in some kind of order. When we ran out of logs I went to get some more. I also found something we could use like rope.
Reuben caught three more fishes with his bare hands, but had another shark attack. This time Sam didn't help him. He ran out of the water and into the jungle screaming. Screaming stopped for a second but then continued when he ran out of the jungle with a bird on his head. Sam saw the bird and whispered two words:
"Fried chicken." she marched to the poor Reuben guy and grabbed the bird of his head then rotated its head around. I could hear the crack it made. I didn't know Sam was that strong. I guess she'd do anything for food.
She came back with a smirk on her face and handed me the dead bird. It was a beautiful toucan. I retreated from her and the bird. It seemd a bit weird. She srugged and said:
"At least we'll have something good for dinner."
By the time it was night, we had eaten all of the fruit. That wasn't very much. But! We had also finished building our shelter. It looked like one half of a pyramid. It wasn't really big but big enough to fit all three of us. The roof was made out of our old rescuing boat that floated over to the beach. We used the rest of the logs to put on a fire. I was the one who lit it, of course. That reminded me, I should teach Sam and Reuben how to do it, too. Maybe, some day...
Reuben and I were holding our fishes above the fire while Sam held her bird there. It was peeled by herself. Now, that, looked really gross. Believe me! After we were done eating (Sam ate the whole bird and Reuben and I each ate two fishes) we went to sleep.
"Reuben sleeps in the middle." said Sam which made Reuben very happy (he was gonna sleep next to Sam).
OKAY! I got a little carried away, didn't I? My chapters usually have about 1000 words. This one had over 2500! Damn, I'm good (kidding). Anyway, you see that little white and green button down there. I would be very happy if you'd click on it. LOL ;) REVIEW!!! bye xx
