I already had written this chapter and it's a little short but please enjoy reading it! More to come and please throw me some ideas or plot twists you'd like to see. I've got heaps of ideas and I'd like to see if any of you want the same things to be in the story as I do!

The warm air flowed in from the open window, hitting her face gently. She looked up at him and screamed out as his hands explored her body. His hands were strong and powerful yet soft and gentle at the same time. Every time that they passed a sensitive point on her, all she could feel was euphoria throughout her entire body. She pushed her head forward and kissed him deeply and passionately, refusing to stop when he tried to pull back. She threw her hand behind his neck and forced him back down on top of her, feeling his body pressing up against hers. The sheets had receded from their movements and fell upon their legs before they both kicked them away. It was a warm night, made only warmer from their actions. She pushed him over and straddled his stomach. She pulled her head down and began nibbling on his ear, making her way down his neck to his shoulder before repeating this on the other side of his body. His hands were caressing her sides and moved behind her back to begin unclasping her bra. He struggled a little with the strap but it fell away from her and onto his face without too much trouble. She smiled down at him and tried to take the undergarment from him but he had latched on to it with his teeth and threw it away without using his hands. He stared deep into her eyes and ran his hands back along her sides. He slowly moved them up and across her chest before settling them on her breasts, cupping them with each hand. She bit her lip and threw her head back in one motion when he raised his head and took a nipple into his mouth. She began rhythmically grinding her hips against his unconsciously from the pleasure and knew that it wouldn't take long before...

Linka awoke with a start. Her body became rigid and she sat up in bed, shocked at what she'd been dreaming about. Her body was coated in a thin layer of sweat. Her lips were dry and she felt short of breath, but she felt amazing. She started blushing, even though no-one was around. Sometimes she had dreamed of sharing a kiss or hug with Wheeler, but she'd never had a dream so vivid and sexual about him like she had just had.

She turned to the window and saw that dawn was just beginning to break and her alarm clock confirmed this with its bright red 05:52 flashing back at her. She lifted a hand to her face and cupped a cheek with her hand. Her face was warm and she quickly pushed her fringe back over her head and pulled her legs up underneath her, sitting cross-legged on the bed. She smiled to herself, embarrassed by her dream but excited by it even more. She started to try and remember the details and closed her eyes to daydream about this when she heard a loud knock on her door.

She almost jumped up from the surprise of the sudden and unexpected noise, "Chyort voz'mi!" she swore. She quickly threw the sheets away from her and threw a gown on before hurrying to see who was at her door. She opened it and saw Wheeler jogging on the spot.

"Hey, babe," he greeted her. He was not normally awake this early in the morning, she had expected to see Kwame or Gi, seeing as they were the two early birds on the Island.

"Wheeler, what do you want? It's 6am!" she complained at him and pretended to be sleepier than she actually was. She could feel that her body was beginning to betray her and the thoughts of her dream were making her face turn red, realising that she had just a few minutes ago been thinking about his hands being all over her body. She shifted uncomfortably and waited for him to answer, trying to suppress her imagination.

"Well, I couldn't sleep much last night and decided to just wake up and go for a run and thought that maybe you'd like to tag along today. Whatcha say?".

"I don't know, Wheeler, I just woke up," she started, and continued when she saw his disappointment, "perhaps I'll join you for your swim later on. You usually go swimming at the beach before lunch don't you?"

His face gleamed in the morning sun, just now showing over the low hills. "That sounds great!" He said with great enthusiasm, "hey look, I hope that I didn't wake up you up this morning."

"Niet, I had woken up a few minutes before," Linka answered him. She liked how much attention he was paying to her feelings. It might not have been much but it made her feel important, at least a little bit.

"Oh, great, well I'll see you at breakfast then babe," he said before turning around and running towards the hills. He wouldn't be back for at least half an hour. Linka couldn't take her eyes off him as he ran away from her. This couldn't be love could it? How could she have fallen in love with Wheeler? He was so different from her that it simply wasn't funny; yet here she was, staring at his back and admiring the way that his feet kicked small puffs of dust into the air with each step. When he was out of sight she retreated back into her hut and decided that she wouldn't possibly be able to sleep now and hopped into the bathroom, preparing a warm bath to release some of her anxiety. Today was going to be a long day and she was sure that her body would need to be stress-free for it.

Technically, it was Wheeler's turn to cook breakfast but Gi knew that everyone wouldn't be opposed if she cooked it instead. On the rare occasion that Wheeler did decide to complete one of his agreed chores, such as cooking breakfast for everyone else, then it was always done improperly. Gi didn't feel like overcooked pancakes or watery smoothies this morning and she doubted that anyone else would either. She threw her morning clothes on, consisting of some slippers and a dressing gown, and made her way over to the main lodge. Her hut was the closest along with Ma-Ti's and they were the ones that did most of the cleaning and maintenance on the Island. Not because anyone else asked them to, simply because they were the ones that were the most willing. Kwame was usually working on his vegetable garden throughout the day. Linka would often be studying or reading up on something in her hut. Wheeler was simply lazy. Gi had her other pastimes such as caring for the sea creatures that were always resident at the rock pools and on the reef but she felt happy to clean the dishes or vacuum the floors without prompting.

Gi opened the large sliding door to the lodge and was shocked to see Wheeler in the kitchen preparing a, from the look of things, very sizable breakfast. She walked over and inspected what he was doing before announcing herself, "my, my, my, you are actually making us breakfast on the day that you're supposed to. I truly am shocked, Wheeler."

Without looking at her, "Little dolphin, you really should have a little more faith in me."

She quickly trudged around the bench and stood right next to him, "Is that so? And what reason would there be for me to trust that you were going to make breakfast for us when the last 20 times that you were supposed to, you never did!"

He told to her and smiled, "Gi, you are living in the past. Get with the times!" He raised his hands above his head and doubled over with laughter, causing her to do the same. "In all seriousness though, do you mind helping me with the omelettes? I don't want to ruin them for everyone."

Gi seemed a bit bewildered by his current tone. He hardly ever spoke in such a friendly or cooperative way and it was quite encouraging to see.

"No problem, pyro," she picked up the spatula and turned the omelette, seeing that it was just now starting to overcook. She took a look at his bacon and eggs and they actually didn't seem too bad. The eggs were a little irregularly shaped but they looked consistent and well-cooked. The bacon smelled delicious and looked even better.

"Just gonna get some toast on," he said and went to the pantry to get some bread.

"Don't forget.." Gi started.

"..that Kwame likes eating rye and Ma-Ti only eats sourdough. I know, Gi, I know." He returned with the 3 loaves of bread and threw some slices into the toaster. He turned to face her once done and saw her shocked look. "What have you done, Wheeler?"

Wheeler seemed hurt by the accusation. "What are you talking about? I haven't done anything wrong."

"I didn't say you did something wrong, I asked about what you had done. You never cook us breakfast and I have never seen you notice or cater for each of our dietary differences. You seem like a different Wheeler today."

Wheeler became more serious, "Maybe I feel like a different Wheeler. I dunno, I guess that I feel guilty for taking advantage of you and the others' generosity and I want to show that I'm not a useless and selfish person any more. I'm almost 24 years old now and I don't want to keep behaving like a teenager forever."

Gi was surprised again by how mature he sounded. She would never have imagined that he would have said anything like that even yesterday. "Well, I do appreciate the help, don't get me wrong," she began to say, before grinning and continuing, "this wouldn't have anything to do with impressing Linka would it?" She snuck a glance at him and she saw a momentarily blush but it wasn't as pronounced as she'd expected. Maybe he really is beginning to mature...

"I'd be lying if I said that had nothing to do with it but that's not the primary reason, no," she scanned him for sarcasm and he seemed to be telling the truth. "I want to change who I am and how I behave. I want to be a good person, Gi."

She quickly turned to him and hugged him, "Wheeler, you are a good person. You bring all of us a great deal of happiness. While your antics are frustrating and annoying and your laziness can be considered rude, we all enjoy your company immensely."

He smiled slightly before stepping back, "I'm going to find the others so they can eat. Do you mind setting the table for us?" She nodded in return and he put his hand towel on the bench and made his way outside to find the others. Both he and Gi knew exactly where everyone would be and knew that it'd only be a couple minutes until everyone was ready to eat.

Something in him had definitely changed overnight. She didn't know the reason but he had seemed sincere in his desire to become more mature. She couldn't wait to get Linka alone to tell her about Wheeler's new lease on life and knew that her friend wouldn't believe her for one second. As soon as Wheeler closed the door behind him she heard the toaster ping and she turned and grabbed the bread from the toaster. She looked at the dial and saw that he'd even changed the toaster to the right setting for the different breads. He really was trying very hard and so far, from what she'd seen, he was doing an amazing job. She started setting up the plates and arranging the food on the tables while the others made their way to the lodge.

As before, please rate and review. Having great fun writing and I hope you'll continue to have great fun reading.
