Naomi's POV:

I built myself a sort of crutch to get around as I started trying to walk on my leg and get back outside to help the others. Everyone now assumed that Amanda and I weren't friends because I thought she slept with Jason and that was fine with me since it covered up my real reason for not liking her. It was pretty early in the morning and I decided to get some fresh air and headed down to the shore to get some fresh air and not worry about Jason nagging me every second.

I sat in the sand with my legs extended a bit in front of me and slowly began to unwrap my leg. I winced in pain here and there at the blood stained cloth and peeked at my wound. The bite marks were clear to see now and they looked like I had been stabbed many times. I heard footsteps and glared as Amanda stood in front of me with her hands on her hips. "Aren't you supposed to be inside sleeping?" She asked me and I glared back before looking around. "I could ask you the same question, where were you?" I asked and she looked back shocked. "Went to pee." She said and then she squatted down and began to wrap my leg with the cloth I had just undone.

"Can't we just be friends again Nomi? I miss you and I haven't done anything wrong." She said sadly and once she was done, I scootched back a bit. "You killed Derek, and two others died when we were hunting by the hand of your people. But even then, we won't be remotely close to being on somewhat good terms until you tell me the truth. Keeping secrets doesn't make friends and especially not when we're stuck on an island and you tell my.... Jason." I wasn't sure if we were an item and so I didn't use the word boyfriend.

She looked up at me sadly and stood up, cleaning her hands with the ocean water. "I hate myself everyday for Derek's death and you don't know how badly it sucks. And I keep secrets from friends to keep them safe and or alive." "Good thing were not friends then." I cut in and she frowned, get some sleep Nomi." She said quietly and I glared. "Don't call me that, ever." I said and she looked sadly before heading back inside. I felt terrible for being mean to her but not telling the truth and murder don't go to well in a friend résumé, if there was such a thing as a friend résumé.

Amanda and Jason seemed to keep a close eye on Aña and I didn't like them treating her badly, she deserved to be here as much as they did. Loads of people complained about me being up but I've been injured too many tines and haven't helped out very much these past days, weeks, how ever long we've been stranded here because I've lost track of the days. Mina had been getting closer to Aña and it felt like she didn't need me anymore, the only time I got to spend with her was when we did swimming lessons.

I see Amanda and Jason whispering to each other sometimes and it bothers me so much and yet I know I can't do anything too serious about it so I ignore them and now I sleep by myself. Jason tried to argue and tell me that I had to understand and just be okay with it and that i'd see in the end but I wasn't going to wait for forever. My end may be nearby, and maybe it isn't, bt life isn't guaranteed to people like us, and I wasn't going to live a life of chance. Peter seemed to be hitting it off well with Tiffany and they became an exclusive item while I remain wherever I am.

So far the island couples are Matt and Liz, Tiffany and Peter, and I believe that is all though Kole always smiles at Mina... But they are too young for anything like that! We had been doing our daily chores and couples flirted but Jason trying to flirt with me and whisper with Amanda was not going to suit with me. "Naomi what's wrong?" Asked Jason as he tried to grab my arm but I shoved away and sat a bit further away. "Don't touch me until you plan on telling the truth." I said and he seemed like he was going to say so until Amanda made a fake coughing noise. I glared over at her and he stood quiet before looking back at me. "Na-" "Just give the girl some space man." Cut in Ricky and I froze as tensions rose.
