Madison sat in the interview room, hands resting on the table. She didn't plan to answer whatever questions they had for her, she didn't want to talk about the island, all she wanted was to see her friends and then get the fuck out of here.

"This is my colleague agent Young, he is the investigator in charge." The blonde guy with glasses explained to her, "me though, I am here for you." He told her leaning forward on the table, "to make sure you feel safe and comfortable. Now this is just a conversati-" Madison interrupted him having had enough of this bullshit.

"I don't understand why we have to have this conversation?" She said "We got stranded on an deserted island, end of story. Not much else to it." She told them rolling her eyes, leading back against the chair.

"There is some haze surrounding your circumstances, we just want a clear grasp on what happened, " he calmly explained to her.

Again Madison rolled her eyes, she didn't see what it was any of their business what had happened on the island. If it was anybody it was Josh's, and that's something she'll refuse to speak about no matter how hard they push.

"So how did you end up on an all boy's retreat in Madison?" The man asked her.

She sighs before explaining, "my mum had gotten the days mixed up, they said I could be redirected to the girls island." Which did not happen cause the fucking plane crashed, she didn't brother explaining that though, that would be stating the obvious.

"Being stranded on an island with eight boys, being the only girl that must of been tough." He says,  trying and failing to sympathise with her. Madison had now rolled her eyes for the third time in a matter of minutes.

"I mean at first, yeah I guess." She said, bringing her hands together to pick at her nails.

"What changed?" He asked, causing her to scoff.

She glanced up at him for a second before bringing her hands back now to her hands, she started to play with her hoodie sleeve getting bored with picking at her nails. "Got to know them," She plainly answered.

"You became close with all them?" More stupid questions from the blobde man, agent Young didn't speak though, just listened. She liked agent Young despite the fact he wasn't speaking.

"All but one." She told them.

"Who?"

"Seth," she answered. "Now he is the definition of a monster."

"How come?" The man asked her.

"Not my story to tell," like she said she would refuse to speak about the situation between Josh and Seth, she was not breaking that promise. "But what I can tell you is that we became a bit like a family. There was a moment where everything went to shit and we all hated each other again but that didn't last, eventually we came together again but of course Seth had to come and ruin it." She explained, "I mean what other choice did we have? At that moment our families were millions of miles away, that we had no idea if we would ever see again and some of us didn't even have families to go back to, so we became each other's family."

And that's all she will give to them, they wouldn't get another peep out of her. She didn't trust them and in a few days she was proven that she was right not to.
