Enjoy! :)
Sawyer's POV:
Sawyer woke up early to check on Winter, and it was seven. Well, not that early.The ground felt cold, and he saw Kat trying to feed Winter, who refused by swishing it away. Kat sighed, "Can't you just eat something, Winter?" Sawyer saw Winter was resting on her favorite blue mat, again. Winter tweeted in of Sawyer's presence. Kat looked up, "Oh hey Sawyer, could you feed Hope for me? I'm trying to feed Winter, but she isn't budging."
Sawyer smiled, "Sure."
Sawyer grabbed a bucket of fish, but heavy at the same time. Although he did not mind the smell of the fish. He plopped the bucket of fish next to Hope's pool, and Hope pops out of the water, like a surprise. Hope whines and points her rostrum toward Winter's pool, and wails. "I know Hope, you can't play with Winter today." Sawyer spoke gently to Hope. Then, Hope stuck her rostrum toward a different way. "Hope, I already told you, you can't play with Winter." What is she doing? Hope splashed Sawyer in the face. Sawyer wiped the water off his face. "Hey!" Sawyer meant to sound angry, but he couldn't be angry at Hope. Hope pointed her rostrum toward the same way again. "Hope, I already told you, there's nothing there." Sawyer said, and sighed in between. Sawyer looked the way where Hope was pointing to. He realized it was Hazel. Hazel was leaning against the wall, sitting on the floor. She was asleep, and a plaid red blanket was covering her body. She looked peaceful. Her eyes were closed, and her eyelashes peeked out. She smiled in her in her sleep. Kat looked at both of them, and smirked to herself. "What?!" Sawyer asked her, defensively. "Nothing." Kat says with a quiet giggle. Why was everyone like that? Hazel must have fell asleep on her shift, next to the pool. I could wake up Hazel myself.
"Hazel! Wake up…!" Sawyer shouted in Hazel's ear. Hazel jumped and opened her eyelids. "Oh! Sawyer! Don't wake me up like tha-!" Hazel says, in a instant she gets splashed by water! She wiped her face, "Hey! Sawyer!" Hazel said, trying to sound angry, but started to laugh. "I didn't do it! It was Hope!" Sawyer told her and put his hands up, in surrender. Hope opened her mouth and squealed in delight and lifted her tail up. Hazel smiles at Hope and Sawyer. "You guys are cute." Kat mumbles, quietly. Hazel gives her a dirty look, "What? What was that?" Kat smiles, "Nothing."
"Kat?"
"Yeah?"
"You were on shift?"
"Yeah."
"Oops, I think I fell asleep too much." Hazel giggles. "It's fine Hazel, Rebecca took on one of the shifts. Plus, who would carry you back to your house?" Kat says with a laugh. Hazel laughs along with her, and turned her eyes to Sawyer and Hope. The two were having a water war, and Sawyer splashed at Hope, which made Hope make a bigger splash and causing Hazel to crack up. "You winning and I'm blind!" Sawyer said laughing. While Hope was splashing Sawyer lightly, "Hey Hazel, pull out your hand." Hazel looked at him with amusement.
"Why?" The blonde asked.
Sawyer grabbed her hand and pulled her in the pool. It made a splash, which rained on Hope. Hope tweeted happily. "Hey! Stop getting me wet!: Hazel yelled, still smiling at the same time.
…
Sawyer and Hazel had to hold Winter later that day, while she rested on their arms. Winter's weak to support herself. They held Winter around and around the pool, hoping she move somehow. But there was no use, she never moved. Winter couldn't survive this, would she? Hazel stared at Sawyer, and he stared back, they had locked eyes for a moment. Winter's bright curious eyes woke up, and fluttered open. She started to wiggle in their hands, and Sawyer smiled. "Winter!" He cried happily. Hazel's smile spread. She was moving!
Sawyer and Hazel were cleaning the main pool, scrubbing as hard as they can. Gripping the broom, he heard two shuffling feet. "Clay, Winter is refusing the prosthetic." Phoebe said. It must be Phoebe and Clay. "I know Phoebe, we have a x-ray later planned." Clay told her in hurry. Hazel glanced at Sawyer. "She is?" Sawyer asked out of the blue, which made Phoebe jump. "Oh my god Sawyer! You scared me!" Sawyer chuckled quietly, "Well the cleaning should have gave you a clue." Clay gave Sawyer a look of amusement. "Sawyer, Winter needs to get her prosthetic on, and vice versa, would you mind helping Phoebe on it?" Clay asked Sawyer.
"Sure."
Sawyer went down the white stepladder, careful each step. Winter on the platform, she looked up at Sawyer. Sawyer sat down next to Winter in the water. "Hey Winter." Sawyer greeted softly. Winter tweeted. "You doing okay?" Sawyer asked Winter. Winter tweeted in response again. "Okay then." Sawyer petted Winter with his hand gently. Winter made her tweety bird whistle, only harsher. "Shh, it's okay." Sawyer told Winter reassuringly. "She fine?" Clay asked, careful not to scare Winter at the same time. "Yeah."
The chains of the stretcher pulled down, making a loud chinking sound. Winter flinched.
…
Sawyer sat in the lower deck, or the Great hall, and his mind was racing. What were Winter's results? He scanned the Great hall, and he saw Hazel sitting on the other side. Hazel was also waiting for the results. She tapped her foot lightly on the floor. Her blond curls feel in place, and her palms together. Sawyer stares at Hazel. Hazel turns her head to stare out at the distance in the hall. Hazel turned her head toward Sawyer and smiles. "Race you to the crow's nest!" hazel stood up and ran. Sawyer smiled and ran. "No way!"
Once Sawyer reached the dock, he saw Hazel sitting in the crow's nest. Hazel smiled mockingly. "I beat you!" Hazel told Sawyer, dramatically pretending to be proud. Sawyer smiles and climbed up the crow's nest ladder and stood there on the crow's nest. Hazel stood up and leaned on the edge of the crow's nest. Hazel turned her head to Sawyer. "I feel like we should be up here often." Hazel said peacefully. Hazel's blond waves blew calmly in the wind. Sawyer's heart was pounding. Stop! Were only friends, right? "Yeah, sometimes I missed those times." Sawyer said, focusing on the aquarium from the view. "What times?" hazel asked questionably. "The times we spent together." Sawyer told her, and Hazel slightly blushed.
"Crafted in a picture less frame."
