Mr. Howell
Me and Lovey were on our second stroll when out of nowhere, a radio fell out the sky, scaring us both silly.
"Thurston, why did that radio fall out of the sky?" she asked me.
"I don't know. Lets go show the professor and the others." I wanted to see if this could get us rescued. If it could, I am raising the rent as soon as I get back. Lowest rent huh? Well, we will see about that.
"Well Mr. Howell, it seems to be a two-way radio that has a very strong and powerful signal." The professor told me.
"Yeah, and it has a strong signal too." Gilligan said. Everyone sigh.
"So this could get us all rescued then?" I asked.
"If the batteries work, and if the other radio is on, then I am positive it just may get us all rescued." Me, Lovey, the Professor, Ginger, and the Skipper all jumped for joy. While Mary Ann, and Gilligan But it must have been my imagination, as they smiled along with us.
"First thing I am going to do is have a big juicy steak, with a side of hash browns, and a beer. The, I'll have dinner. Ha ha." The skipper said, delighted.
"Well, I am raising the rent on my housing. Then go to the country club, catch up on the old gossip." I said, proud of it. When we turned to ask Mary Ann, she and Gilligan were gone. Now why would they have left if they knew we were going to be rescued? They must want to leave this place to go back home just as much as we do.
Mary Ann
When Mr. Howell brought back the two-way radio, my heart dropped. Five years ago, I would have been glad to get off the island. But now, especially when Gilligan kissed me last night, how could I leave? So, when they jumped for joy, I snuck away. Why should I stay and celebrate, when I want to stay here? A ruffling noise broke me from my thoughts, and I turned to see who is was.
"Who is there?" I asked, shaking with fear, and cold. It got dark fast.
"Just me Mary Ann." I sight in relief, that is was only Gilligan.
"Are you cold?" With out waiting for an answer, he took off his hat, then his shirt, giving me the shirt. Five years of doing the manual labor on the island did him nicely. Did I just thought that of my friend? I took the shirt and put it on. He just put his hat back on.
"Chilly out here. Want a fire?" I nodded, and he went to collect fire wood, leaving me alone. I sat down on a log, and waited for him to return. After a while, I fell asleep, and woke up after a nightmare. Unknown at the time, I began to cry out Gilligan's name. In a minute, he came running over, fire wood in his arms. Once he saw me crying though, he dropped it and wrapped me in his arms. Something that must of been hard for him to do.
"It's ok Mary Ann. It's ok." He said, calming me down. After a minute, I calmed down. He lit the fire, and started cooking a cod he just caught. As it cooked, he never left my side. I think he was scared that I would break down again. Not that I was complaining.
"Thanks for being here Gilligan." He chuckled.
"I am just the first mate." I thought on what I was going to say. But, I couldn't. So, I kissed him.
Skipper
The professor was just about finished working on the radio, when I realized I haven't seen Mary Ann, or my little buddy.
"Professor, should we look for those two?" He looked up from his lantern lit desk.
"Skipper, those two are adults now. Plus, it's too dark to see where they are. I am sure they will be back in the morning." I wasn't too sure. Knowing Gilligan, he was bound to fall into quicksand, or a deep pit.
"I'm going to search anyway." This time, he stood up.
"Skipper, it's too dark to search for them. Gilligan has done this before. They will be back in the morning." I guess he is right.
