The obsidian eyes

Making a bad situation better.

The silence after the rain, oh my how quickly she pulls herself together. -Margret thatcher

As Troy swam through the water, me being human was clinging onto him for dear life.
After about a minute of him swimming, it became alarmingly apparent I needed to breathe, unlike mr.fishy holding me.
I banged on his chest looking at at his chiseled jaw. Trying to get his attention not stopping his swimming he glanced down at me, making eye with me his eyes a beautiful blue. I wanted to stay looking at forger distracted me about my loss of breath.
he broke the long gaze looking up shooting us both up above water. I gasped and coughed sucking in as much air as I possibly could. "Really Troy?!" I scream coughing "I'm human I have to breath." I glared at his neck not wanting to make eye contact he lifted my chin up. Wow he almost felt gentle? "ungrateful human I got us here didn't I." And he ruined the moment.
I turned my head bright sun glaring down at us making his wet shoulders shimmering in the light. In his tight grasp keeping us both above the water, I saw the little island it was about the size of 6 or 7 regular sized houses.
Probably 10-15 miles long. I glanced at the trees I could make shelter with the leaves and the coconuts I could eat. Eat. Damn I'm hungry.
I look back at him. "Well if you want me on the island you gotta take me there, macho man. Or should I say merman" He scoffed "your the one who needed air." I shook my head trying to push away from him but instead he held me tighter swimming us to the sand. I climbed slipping in the wet gritty sand. He moved back in the water.
I wrung the edges of my dress out flipping my hair to one side. I look around the desolate island I saw some good tree branches I could use for shelter, I turned around to thank Troy but little did I know he was gone, I scoffed."Wow he steals me brings me to a desolate cave, then to an island alone but he can't even say bye to me."
I walk forward in the sand my dress dirty, sand flopping around in the wind I thought to myself what am I gonna do about my clothes fuck. The sun was hot as I was burning underneath it, hoping I would get a tan instead of a sun burn.
I decide to walk around picking up tree branches and steardy palm tree leaves. I ended up finding some vines I can use as rope. I slowly build some shelter against one of the first trees you can see on the island, about ten feet away from the water so high tide won't affect it.
My shelter was finished after about 1 hour and a half I sighed sitting my but down in the warm sand digging my toes in, hugging my legs into my chest. Looking at the sun I use my hand to cover my eyes like a sun visor. It was gonna be dark in a couple hours. I sigh and get up and start to collect scattered branches for a fire.
I collect quit a few so I don't have to collect more later and some dry leaves I found laying on the sand I sit about 3 feet away from my shelter and start to build a t p around the dry leaves. Mean while the air around me started to shift as the sun was moving to set. I grab 2 rocks and scrape them against each other about 30 times till sparks start to fly. The leaves catching fire igniting the wood around them.
Content with my hard work I look out at the ocean staring. Maybe this wasn't sooo bad I mean yeah it was bad, but it could be much, much worse honestly at least Troy was sort of nice. I mean he could be a lot worse and he hasn't eaten me yet. I'm not a little girl who's gonna fall in love with him instantly just because he hasn't felt the need to eat me. He hasn't saved my life just because he hasn't eaten me. That would be more than ridiculous to think.
The sky getting dark I grab some big leaves to use as a blanket and put them inside my shelter. It was about 10 feet wide so I could put any supplies I collect in there with me the rocks I used  for the fire, the wood stacked outside my the little hut and rocks lining the outside of the shelter to make sure crabs don't burrow in.
The largest palm leaf I could find laid out as mat for my bed. Palm leaves folded up for a pillow I sigh looking at the situation I'm in. My stomach grumbles I grab it and hold it and speak to myself "okay Lemon you got this be a big girl, climb a tree for a coconut. Or I could throw rocks at one till it falls?"  My words of encouragement not helping much.
I move my lips to one side thinking about what I'm gonna do I find the nearest coconut tree and a rock. I chuck the rock as hard I could sighing at my sad attempt to get the coconut down, I try about 8 more times missing all of but two times. Finally on the third hit it fell, I shrieked as it came tumbling down at me. I shake my head as I grab the coconut taking it over to my little shelter in front of the fire. I smash it open and drink the rest of the coconut juice I didn't spill and scrape the insides out with a dull rock I found onto a leaf.
Eating the insides completely gone my stomach feeling a little better.
I lay down in my hut thinking about Troy where was he. Wait does he sleep if so how?
What is he doing, who is he with, does he have a beautiful mermaid girlfriend back at his home? I shake out my worries, wait worries why would I care about a beautiful mermaid with him? He stole me from my home why can't I hate him as much I should. I felt a weird pull to be near him, when he was swimming earlier holding me I sigh...holding me I miss that,
WAIT. Lemon no, nope, you can't think like that hate him okay. I hate him, hate not like, HATE.
Slowly after arguing with my self I drift into a dull sleep clutching my leaf around my body. Slightly shivering. As the night gets deep and cold not a single noise. Except for the waves of the ocean feeling just as lonely as I do.
