KAI'S POV

"WHERE AM I?!" I screamed.

I had no idea where I was, I'm desserted, alone, and scared. I was laying on the sand and the water hit me for a couple seconds and got dragged back in by the ocean. Again the cool water hit me and got pulled back in. It kept doing this over, and I just kind of expected it. Water. Gone. Water. Gone. Water. Gone. Hope. Gone. I had no idea what to do. Slowely but surely I sat up and wiped my tears away. I made such a huge mistake. Why didn't I just stay? Why do I do this to myself? I can never trust myself to make the right descions ever again. I just made this worse for me, I always had to figure out a way to make things suck. My eyes blinked repeadetly and I just sat there looking into the distance. Then I thought to myself, sitting here isn't going to do anything. I stood up and looked around for any signs of anything, anything but more water. To my bad luck, nothing. I felt tears threatening to hit, but I held them back. I looked around and my stomach grumbled. Oh no, I realized, I need food soon, or else. I gulped and looked around again, for any sign of food. Nothing.

I walked through the mini island passing a couple trees, until I spotted something. A coconut. Yes. But how do I get up the palm tree? I found a large rock and threw it up with all my force and it slightly missed. I tried again and flung it up. Miss. Again. Miss. Again. Score! I hit it and I could tell it was loose, but it didn't come down. I picked up the rock again and threw it, it wiggled once again but didn't fall. I was getting frustrated, and almost thought to give up but I didn't. I threw the rock again and the coconut came plummeting down and it dropped at my feet. I quickly dropped to the ground and held it in my hands. New problem... how do I open it? 

I grasped the coconut and threw it roughly against the tree. It appeared as a little crack and began to keep hitting it against the tree. Within a few minutes there was a big enough hole to drink from. I held it up from my mouth and I let the moistness of it's insides slither down my throat. It was a good sensation and before I knew it, it was all gone. It was much too little to be all gone already. I desperately looked up at the tree and to my dissapointment, there was no more. I need to get out of here. I need to. But how? Wait for a boat to come by? The chances of that happening are really slim and even slimmer for them to see me and stop. I didn't know what to do. But of course, I had another dumb idea. I needed to swim my way out of here before all my energy is gone. If I couldn't wait it out, I needed to swim it out.

HARRY'S POV

I needed to find Kai. I needed to. Whether she be dead or alive, I still needed to confirm it. I needed the confirmation and closure I deserved. I needed to know for sure that I really messed up this time. I got up from the couch and was about to walk out of my flat until Paul came in. He had a new answer, he never just shows up to my flat. He had been told something, he was about to tell me what happened. The truth and I wasn't ready to hear it. I looked into his eyes for some sort of indication she was okay. His eyes didn't give me any answers. Paul was difficult to read. I looked straight at Paul. I was vulnerable, I was basically pleading him with just one look. Paul looked down at me a bit too dissapointing,

"Harry, they didn't find her. They're still looking but they did find something..." 

I almost yelped when he said they found something. A clue, maybe she still was alive. I was impatiently waiting for Paul to continue,

"They find her right shoe." 

Shit. That's it? That makes me more upset, they found her shoe. In movies when someone finds something like that, it always ends up with them being dead. My world came crashing down because to think I might be responsible for a death. Especially someone who went through so much. I threw my promise down a well, and it's gone. My promise I made to her is gone, I didn't fulfill it. I choked,

"That's it?"

Paul nodded.

"They are still looking Harry. They will not give up. Get some rest, I'm sorry."

He put a hand on my shoulder and I brushed it off. I glumly walked up the steps to my room and shut the door. I walked over to my bed and plopped myself on it. How is she gone? This is happening all too quickely. I silently cried into my pillow, and didn't even notice the darkness that overtook me.

KAI'S POV

I knew what I had to do. If I wanted to try and survive I needed to swim. I knew this can easily be a cause of my death, but so can just sitting here. I would die either way, so might as well do something that I can hope for. I decided to stop overthinking this plan because I knew I would find a way to talk myself out of it. I put all my worries aside and decided I would swim until I couldn't anymore and look for any sign of civilization. I knew I should start right now, the sooner the better. I stepped a few feet away from the water and decided this was it. This little action would decide whether I deserve to live or not. We'll find out soon enough. 

I plunged into the water and the water suddenly refreshed my body with a comforting coolness. I began to paddle away further away from the mini island I barely came to know. I wanted to forget it. I wanted to forget everything. I paddled faster an I knew I shouldn't be doing that because it would get my energy down quicker. I looked behind me and the saw the mini island shrink smaller and smaller with each paddle I took. Good. Good rediance. I paddled and I felt something that was something I did not want to feel. Exhausted. I was already tired and I was swimming for how long? Ten minutes? I felt myself panting and my body screaming for a break. 

I stopped swimming and just floated for a little bit. At least I would give it a little break. It wasn't really a break because I still needed energy to keep afloat. Nonetheless I just stayed floating. I knew I should probably look around just to make sure there isn't any islands or signs of boats but I didn't. I just kept floating. My eyelids grew heavier. I struggled to keep them opened but once again, my eyes won.

*****

I opened my eyes and I was greeted with water in my eyes and splashed over my face. My eyes began to burn but that was not the worst of it. My stomach felt like an empty pit that was desperate for anything. My head was pounding, my body felt achey and I felt nauseus. I felt like I was about to pass out. What happened? Then I realized I was in the ocean. I quickly stopped floating and just was swimming. I looked around and saw nothing, it was night. It was dark, cold, and I was alone.
