"You know that's not very eco-friendly what you're doing there "Emersion said, walking up behind Mike after watching him flip a coin into the ocean below

"What do you know about eco-friendly "Mike countered

"A lot actually "Emersion rattled out "think about the animal's Mike, what happens if a cute little turtle comes along thinking that coin you just flipped in is actually food. Well its bye bye little turtle and hello death, and that will be on your conscience." Leaning against the railing Emersion looked up to Mike

"Jeez that took a dark turn. Who pissed in your cornflakes this morning "

"What "Emersion replied with a shocked expression "no one, your the one that's killing the wildlife. Anyway I have drills and phones to fix, later Mike "and with that Emersion walked away, leaving a speechless Mike to stare down at the water below

2 hours later and Emersion had managed to fix all the phones and hot water on the rig. Standing on a small step now dressed in the workers red jumpsuit with a screwdriver in her mouth, Emersion is currently fixing what the drill shack-like to call 'blue screen of death '. Every now and then Caleb and her would share longing gazers and smile to each other, making it hard for Emersion to concentrate on what she was doing.

"Emersion dear, walk with me "Mr jimmy called out to her. Sharing a confused look with Caleb she jumped off her little step, following after Mike and Mr Jimmy

"Where we headed, Mr Jimmy "Emersion asked brushing away the dirt gathered on her hands and pants

"To murder some BP company men "

"Oh cool, what fun. Do you want me to bring my flame thrower? " Emersion smiled up to Mr Jimmy

"No need, dear, but keep it on stand by just in case "Mr Jimmy said while tapping the top of her hard hat "Now tell me guys, did you brush your teeth this morning "

"Uh yes, sir "both replied, confused with the question asked

"Did you floss "Mr Jimmy asked

"Uh no "replied Mike, while Emersion replied with a "yes. "Making their way along the rig Mr Jimmy turning looking at the pair

"Well Mike, unlike Emersion here its gonna save ya a lot of pain and money in the long run, I'll tell ya that "and with that Mr Jimmy pushed open the heavy metal door moving down the stairs

Shane and Caleb came running up behind the pair. Caleb standing next to Emersion brushing his hand against hers, causing her to blush and butterflies to erupted in her stomach

"Shit. Jimmy's..... oh he's about to go off on the BP guys "Mike quickly told the two

"They never ran the cement log "Caleb informed the group. Emersion smiled up at him while Shane bounced on his feet, excitement running through his body.

"They sent them home without doing shit. We going after BP "Mike continued as Emersion remained quiet, wondering why Mr Jimmy was bringing her along as well. Slowly the door behind Mike and Emersion open and Mr Jimmy appeared.

"Hey ! What's the matter, what, you owe them a lot of money, come on Mike, Emersion dear. Stay on my hip "

"Oh my god, shits going down "Emersion muttered to herself, causing Caleb to look down at her, worry plastered on his face. His hand slowly came up behind her, rubbing circles on the small of her back, trying to calm her down. Mike grinned at the group before bouncing down the stairs after Mr Jimmy. Slowly Emersion started to follow but was pulled back when someone grabbed her wrist.

"Hey Emmy, wait, "Caleb said softly "You all good you look kinda pale ". It was true Emersion wasn't okay she hated conflict it always made her feel queasy

Shrugging her shoulders and taking a deep breath, Emersion looked up to Caleb. Every worry that she once had vanished, he always had this effect on her it was calming. He always made her feel better. "Yeah, I'm, just not a fan of conflict. I'm better now though "before moving out of his grip towards the stairs

Before she disappeared out of his sight, Caleb called out to her one last time, "Hey Emmy !! Go and get them tiger "

Emersion's eyes widen, butterflies swarming all over her body. A cold shiver run down her spine causing her to shake. "I'll try my best, get back to work Caleb "she smiled at him before walking away.

Caleb stayed in his place and watched her walk down the stair. A grin plastered on his face as he turned back around to continue working.

"Dude you're whipped, like come on. Ask her out already, "Shane said, bumping his shoulder into Caleb

"Shut up man, you don't know what you're saying "But deep down, Caleb knew Shane was right. Emersion Miller would be the death of him
