A/N: Aww thanks Hyejin13570! I really do appreciate it! And yes I hate cheesy stories! I want more like hate/love. Oh and thanks also to eastern-tennis1621! So here's the fourth chapter... I worte a bit in Sean's POV... Sorry if it is a bit cheesy :P

I don't own anything but Alyssa.


So… yes. I'm friends with Sean Anderson, again. I'm just happy with it. Don't get me wrong but I missed his friendship, I know we've just been friends like for 15 minutes… So what?


"Here's what he wrote: 'my analysis of the original Verne text…leads me to believe that across the ocean due north of my current position…is a geyser-like river which could be used to return to the surface.'" Hannah said reading Max's notebook. I nodded and looked at the window…

"Basically we need to get across the ocean and find the geyser?" I asked. Trevor nodded yes. "And then just hitch a ride topside." He said.

I grinned "Sounds good."

"It's a little trickier than that" Trevor said. True… How the hell were we going to get across the Ocean?

"It could get so hot that the water will evaporate." Hannah said. I looked at everyone.

"And how much time do we have?" Sean asked.

"Forty-eight hours. Seventy-two, tops. Probably less" Trevor answer. "Uh huh... So the question here is… How are we going to get across the ocean?" I said and looked at them. "And fast…" Sean thought for a while and then got the book out in the page with a drawing of a raft. "It's all in the book" He said I smiled.


OH god… This is getting hot… Really hot! I had cut my pants into shorts, and my legs had been getting tanner, I didn't care though…I needed to get tanner. My red her was tied in a ponytail. I sighed as I was tidying on another branch to the raft. We finally tied on the last couple branches to our raft. We all looked at it. "I'm hungry" Sean said. Hell yes so I was. "Hannah do you have something in your backpack?" I asked. She nodded and gave Sean and I a bar. We sat down on the sand. I cut it in two pieces; I gave one to Sean and started to nibble on my half. God this was heaven. I was really hungry. Sean looked at me and chuckled. "What?" I asked. "I missed this" He said… He missed me eating? I raised a brow. "I mean like being with you without fighting or you hitting me or… Stuff you know the normal" He said. Oh… Now I understand. I sighed and nodded. "I guess I did too… But who says I won't hit you anymore?" I said with a smirk, I slightly punched him in the arm and he chuckled. "Kids still hungry?" Trevor asked us. YES! I nodded quickly. "Well then it's your lucky day!" He said… Lucky? LUCKY?! WE WERE IN THE FREAKING CENTER OF THE EARTH! "I found some trilobite!" Trevor said… He found some what? Sean and I glanced at each other… Not knowing what trilibilotility or whatever it was. "Here have some" He said giving us this strange hmm… Pudding. Ew… It looked disgusting. "Er…I'm not hungry anymore thanks" I said making a disgusted face. Sean did the same as I did. "Eat it Sean you will be strong, while Miss 'I just want salad thank you' will be weak." Trevor said with a smirk and trying to imitate my voice. I glared at him but then chuckled at Sean's widen eyes. "You want me to eat this?" Sean said. I chuckled. "Yes so you can be as strong as your silly uncle!" I said teasingly. Sean sighed and started to eat the trilibilotility( OR WHATEVER IT WAS! ) I chuckled, he seemed as if he was going to throw up. So did I… watching someone eating that… Just ugh ew! "Want some 'sweetie'?" He said. "You seem hungry" I shook my head and stood up. I looked at the finished raft and then realized something… "Don't we need to set our mast?" I asked. Trevor shook his head. "Nope. We don't need it. The wind that we want is way up there. Thermal. It's a lot faster than what we got down here." He said. I nodded, still not understanding. I walked and sat near the raft.

SEAN'S POV

I looked at Alyssa walking and sitting near the raft. I smiled looking at her, her read hair was beautiful…Wait no, I looked away. I can't think anything more than being friends with her. I lost her friendship once by trying to be more than friends. I don't want to lose her friendship again. "Hey Sean" Trevor called me, I looked at him and he gave me a compass. "What's this?" I asked.

"It's a compass. It was your dad's. I remember the Christmas that your mom gave it to him. She wanted to make sure that he could always find a way back home. And maybe it will help you find a way back to her." He told me, I grabbed it and looked at it.

"Thanks Trevor" I said. "You got it" He told me. I looked at Alyssa again, she was talking with Hannah. Trevor nudged me playfully. "You like her don't you?" He asked me with a smirk. Yes, I do, ever since I first met her.

"No!" I said. "You do!" He said. I rolled my eyes.

"And if I did, it wouldn't matter because she doesn't like me" I told him and sighed. "How do you know?" He asked me. I shrugged and stood up and started to walk away. I looked at the compass. "Oh there is one more thing you should know" Trevor told me I turned around and looked at him raising a brow. "Down here, the polarity is reversed. I mean, north is south, south is north… and we need to bear due north across the sea." He told me. "You mean south?" I asked him. "Exactly" He said. I was going to walk to Alyssa but then remembered she was talking with Hannah. I sat on the sand.

ALYSSA'S POV

I looked at the sea and sighed. I hope we get out of here. Otherwise my mom will kill me. Hannah came up with me and sat beside me. I raised a brow.

"Hey" She said.

"Hey" I answered.

"What's the problem?" She asked me. Oh if you haven't noticed we are trapped in the Center of the Earth!

"Hmm Nothing… Why do you ask? I said.

"You seem a bit down, normally you are teasing Sean or smiling, or laughing" She said. Woah… Even if we barely knew each other and she did know me. "Well I'm just a bit tired and want to get out of here" I simply said. She sighed "Same here" She said with her Icelandic accent. "I mean I do like it in here it is beautiful but still" I said she nodded. "True. Hey what's going between you and Sean?" She said smirking. "We are just friends… Well we just got back to be friends" I said chuckling. "Hmm… You seem to like him" She said. My eyes widen. WHAT? "I don't like Sean. I seriously don't like Sean. He would be the last person I would date" I lied. I kinda did like him… Woah the hot weather is affecting me. Me… liking Sean? Pfft! Ha! Yes, the hot weather is affecting me. "Uh huh… And he seems to like you too" She said with a smirk and stood up . Wait… Sean likes me? Ha… The hot weather is affecting Hannah too. I chuckled lightly and stood up. "Hey guys let's go!"


Soon we had the sail tied on and it shot up as the wind violently took it into the air pulling all four of us into the water. "It's just a little storm, isn't a big deal!" Trevor yelled in assurance as the waves chopped, sea water spraying everywhere. It was pouringdown rain and the sky was a blackish purple color with the frequent exception of fork- shaped lightening which flashed through the sky, brightening it all up for half a second. The thunder rumbled on and on like a thousand slamming doors. Hannah moved toward the side of the boat, drenched by the freezing rain. I took this chance to catch some rain in my mouth to quench my thirst. God I was thirsty. And this storm was scaring me… Sure it did… I looked at the sea and saw something moving. "There's something moving down there!" I said looking at it. Sean leaned and look at it. "Probably just plankton! Same thing we saw back at the beach!" Trevor yelled. I looked at it and raised a brow. "I don't know it looks a bit… bigger" I said. Sean nodded. "Yes for being plankton it looks kinda big" Sean said. "Sean, Alyssa we're not at Sea World, so just back up a little!" ordered Trevor. Pity, I loved Shamu. "I think it's some sort of fish!" Sean yelled; I nodded. He suddenly jumped back. I screamed seeing the fish; it was hardly a fish. It was more like a humungous silvery giant with translucent eyes and knives for teeth. My eyes widened. Some sort of piranhas. The 'piranhas' were jumping all over the raft. I was scared. The fish were splashing all around. "Sean, Alyssa!" Trevor yelled. "No Trevor, I don't care about the freaking names of this fish! I just want to get rid of them!" I said. "No! Well their actual name it's…" Trevor started "NO!" Sean and I yelled at the same time. "Do you guys remember I told you we'd get to the batting cage?" Trevor said giving Sean and I two large sticks. Sean and I started to whack every fish. A fish was going to bite me but Sean smacked it. We chuckled "HOME RUN!" I yelled he smiled. I heard a beeping noise…. Was that a phone? Sean pulled his phone out of his pocket. "Hello? Mom? Mom I can't hear you…uh…Uncle Trevor, Ally and I are sort of on a fishing trip…" he said. I giggled, "Extreme fishing." I coughed and he cracked a smile. "And uh…uh…um…" I followed his gaze and saw he was staring at Hannah's butt. I rolled my eyes… Wait… A FISH! A FISH WAS GOING TO EAT HANNAH'S BUTT! I smacked the fish before it could do anything. "Alyssa just caught a big one… Yeah you want to talk with her but she is a bit busy…" Sean said still talking with his mother. Yes I was busy smacking fish. I shook my head and took his phone. "Hello Elizabeth" I said. Sean now whacking the fish. "Hey Ally, how are you doing?" She asked me… I rolled my eyes. I'm horrible in the center of the earth trying to survive to this fish. "Hmm Fine…" I said. "I have bad news" She said sadly. So do I. Your son almost died… "What is it?" I asked. "Your… Your mom is… at the hospital" She said… My eyes widened. No… That can't just be… No "Wha…what?... Er I'm sorry Elizabeth I need to hang…" I started but a fish eat the phone. "My phone!" Sean yelled. I was still shocked. My mom was okay… Maybe I heard wrong.. Yes I heard wrong… She is okay, she isn't at the hospital… I know… She…"SEAN! LOOK OUT!" I yelled. "I got- ahhhhh!" He screamed as the massive fish snake came out of the water we backed up on the raft. It bit at Sean's legs and I pulled him away towards Trevor and me. Wait a minute-it bit at the fish! Suddenly more snakes came out of the water, "Look they want the fish not us!" Trevor yelled. "Sean, Alyssa you take the tailor, we'll take the front. Hannah, hold the slack!" He yelled. Sean and I went to the back while the Hannah and Trevor were at the front. "Sean, Alyssa, you wanna take us hard starboard?" Trevor yelled. WHAT? "WHAT?" Sean and I yelled at the same time. "That way." Trevor yelled pointing to the left. "Now, Hannah, just let it out gently, gently." He said to Hannah, who held the rope. "It's working!" I shouted, grinning. "You're the man, uncle Trev!" "That's what I've been trying to tell the scientific community for years!" Trevor said. Sean and I laughed but then quickly stopped as the sail was jerked forward. Hannah suddenly fell back. "Hannah!" Trevor yelled, coming to the back of the boat where Hannah landed. I winced seeing her bleeding hands from the rope burn. I started to fly off the boat with the sail, Sean grabbed the other rope trying to help me… The rope… something happened and Sean and I were flying. I screamed. I somehow managed to get closer to Sean and took his hand. "ALYSSA! SEAN!" Trevor yelled. "DON'T LET GO!" No, duh. Sean wrapped his arm around my shoulder. I closed my eyes as we were flying.
