Sorry for the last chapter and Seuben thing. I got a bit carried away :)
Just to warn you, the beginning of this chapter will have some Seuben in it.
Chapter 8 (Sam's POV) Dream lover
I was chased by Miss Briggs, once again. Only this time, there was no Freddie to save me. She was coming closer and closer to me. I gasped when she jumped and turned into a big hairy monster. I tried to run, but my legs wouldn't move. I was looking around, desperately searching for someone to help me. When I turned to my left something caught my eye. It was Freddie. I tried to reach him, but he started fading away. Before he disappeared he pronounced three words:''You betrayed me.''
The monster ran towards me quickly and jumped. I screamed.
''Sam! What's wrong?'' I woke up to the sound of Reuben's voice. I looked up at him and remembered what happened yesterday. Wait, so Reuben and me are like... Dating?
''Noting. I just had a bad dream.'' I answered. It was still night but I could see the sun rising slowly. Reuben took my chin in his hand and lifted my head up. He pressed his lips against mine hungrily and when I didn't respond he softly traced his tongue over my lips. I opened my mouth and he started kissing me passionately, a bit less gentle than yesterday. I didn't feel butterflies in my stomach this time, though. Something was wrong. It was like I didn't want this. But he's the only one who's tender with me and I just can't let that pass me by. I have to make myself want this.
I ran my hand through his hair pulling him closer to me, still not feeling the spark. That's why I decided I'd straddle him. He seemed a little surprised by that but didn't protest. After about a half of minute later I pulled away sighing. No sparks. I tried again, pressing my cold lips against his warm ones. I continued even though I didn't feel anything.
''Oh my God!'' I heard a familiar voice behind me. It belonged to Freddie, but the way he said that wasn't in surprise. It was in frustration. I pulled away from Reuben, our lips making a sound when separating, and turned around.
''F-Freddie?'' I stuttered. Our eyes connected and the way he looked at me was very sad. I got off of Reuben and ran quickly towards the boy with brown hair, never breaking the eye contact. Then, I did something I never thought I'd do. I hugged him tightly.
''I'm so glad you're here. What happened to you?'' I asked and let go of him.
''Nothing.'' he paused ''What was that all about?'' he asked pointing to the place where Reuben and I were making out just a few seconds ago.
''I have a feeling you know what we were doing.'' I said and laughed nervously. Wait, what? Nervously? Why would I be nervous around Freddie? This just doesn't make any sense. Why the hell am I letting Reuben be my boyfriend? Oh, right, that's because he's gentle with me.
''Are you guys like boyfriend and girlfriend now?'' he asked, never changing the sad facial expression.
''Uh...'' I stalled, not wanting to say yes. Reuben came and hugged me from behind, then kissed my cheek, ever so slightly.
''I guess you could say that.'' he answered Freddie who looked like he was about to vomit abundantly. I smiled at him innocently.
''Whatever'' Freddie started saying ''I just wanted to let you know I found water.'' he finished senselessly. My mood brightened up. But Reuben acted like he didn't care about water. He kissed my neck over and over again. I just ignored him and asked Freddie:
''Really? Where?''
''Just a bit further in the jungle.'' he answered looking at Reuben who still hasn't stopped kissing my neck.
''Reuben, stop.'' I said trying not to sound mean. He removed his hands from my stomach and stood beside me.
''Come on, I'll lead the way.'' said Freddie and started walking out of the cave. Reuben and I followed. As we walked I heard dim water flowing. We soon approached a big river.
''Water!'' I yelled and bent down to drink some. Freddie and Reuben did the same. After we satisfied our thirst we sat down on the grass, Reuben in the middle. He leaned to me and started kissing me. Freddie looked away and sighed.
Freddie's POV
And there they were, kissing again. There was a hole in my heart. I gotta admit it to myself. I'm in love with Sam. I turned my head back at them. This wasn't even kissing anymore. It was more like a make out session. Their eyes were closed and I could actually see their tongues battling for dominance in each others mouths. Why couldn't it be me instead of Reuben?
Sam's POV
I opened my eyes a little just to peek while kissing with Reuben. I saw Freddie staring at us. He looked heartbroken. What was wrong with him? I think I should break up with Reuben. He was a good kisser but I didn't feel anything special. I broke the kiss and Freddie moved his head away quickly looking to the ground.
''Reuben, can I talk to you in private?'' I asked him.
''Sure.''
We walked behind some trees when Reuben asked:
''What's up?''
''I can't do this.'' I told him.
''Can't do what?'' he asked confused.
''I can't...'' I paused so I could look into his eyes while saying that.
''I can't be with you.'' I finally said it. Unexpectedly, he leaned in and gave me the softest kiss ever. When he pulled away I was looking at him wondering why he did that.
''I just wanted to have a nice last kiss with you.'' he answered, obviously reading my mind.
''I'm gonna go now.'' he said, then turned running away. I nodded to myself. Wait, wait, wait! He ran away?!
''Reuben, wait!'' I called after him, but he was already out of my sight. I decided I'd go back and tell Freddie what happened. He was still sitting on the ground, motionless.
''Freddie!'' he turned his head to me. I threw myself on the ground beside him.
''What happened? Where's Reuben?'' he asked.
''I broke up with him and he ran away.'' I explained very quickly.
''You broke up with him?'' he asked raising his eyebrows. I nodded.
''Why? I thought you liked him.'' he asked again.
''What are you? The boy of many questions?'' I said laughing nervously. Suddenly, I heard strange noises coming from the bushes behind Freddie. A big monkey came out of them and jumped on Freddie as I screamed. It started kissing him.
''Ah... Not you again!'' Freddie whined. I laughed and went over to them so I could help Freddie get up from under the monkey. It was the monkey from yesterday. The female orangutan. When Freddie was up the monkey grabbed his hand.
''Could you, please, let go of my hand?'' he asked it. The monkey shook its head. Freddie and I looked at each other in surprise. It understood us!
''What are we gonna do now?'' I asked him.
''I thought we could explore the island some more so maybe we'd find someone or something to help to us. But, now, I don't think that'll be possible.'' he explained.
I grabbed Freddie's free hand as he looked at me with a worried expression on his face. I smirked at him.
''No, Sam! No, no, no!'' I ignored him and pulled his hand really strong. The monkey still wouldn't let go of him. Instead it started pulling his hand as well. Soon we were all yelling and screaming, including the monkey.
''Let him go!'' I yelled, pulling his hand stronger. The monkey shook its head again and made weird noises. I tried to pull as strong as I could and it worked. The monkey finally let go of Freddie's hand. But, you see, there's this thing called gravity so when it let go of him, Freddie and I fell to the ground, him on top of me.
We were in that position for about two minutes, laughing. When we finally calmed down I looked deep into his chocolate brown eyes and said:
''I'm tired.'' he laughed and I joined him.
''Let's take a nap before we go anywhere else.'' I suggested. He nodded and we went back to the cave Reuben and I had stayed in last night. We positioned on the same wall Rueben and I did, but Freddie and I sat far away from each other. I closed my eyes and drifted of to sleep.
I was out on the opening and Freddie's forehead was on top of mine. His eyes were closed and he was leaning in. Our lips connected slowly. We opened our mouth at the same time as I breathed the fresh scent of the air around us. He slowly kissed my bottom lip. I was wearing a white fluttering dress and he had a white shirt and white jeans. He took my hand in his as he continued to kiss me. That's when I realised. He was my dream lover.
Well, well, well. I promised Seddie and you got it. Even though it was only a dream. I can't make them a couple yet cause we're not even halfway through this story. They have a lot more to discover. I hope you guys liked it. Review! Please, for me? :) xx
