Noah's P.O.V 

" Hey, Becca? I ask. I lean over her. She is lying face down on the sand. She groans and says " Go away, Mom. " Despite what happened yesterday, I laugh. 

Becca lifts her face up. " Shit! No this cannot be happening. I can't... I am not... " she stuttered, bursting into tears as words fail her. I pull her into my arms. " Hey, it's going to be okay. Look they'll look for us. " I said, not quite believing what I was saying. 

After a few minutes, she wipes her eyes and her eyes brighten. " We need a flag," she exclaims, excitedly. 

She dashes towards the woods and comes back holding a stick. She rips off her shirt and wraps it around the stick. 

I stare at her. She always wears baggy clothes. I thought maybe it was because she was chubby or something. I have nothing against chubby people. " What? I couldn't find anything else. " she protested. 

Her body was gorgeous, her flat belly, she was incredible. Maybe she was secretly seducing me. I didn't understand why she had to hide her figure. 

She glares at me and holds out her hand. I eagerly hold it. She laughs. " Your shirt, idiot. " 

I can feel her eyes glued to me as I rip my shirt off. I wink, and she rolls her eyes and grabs the shirt. 

Maybe we can make a shelter! I open my bag nd grab my toolbox. She raises her eyebrows at me. " What? You don't like guys with toolboxes? " I joke while sorting through my toolbox. 

" I like Bob the builder, but I didn't think you're that type. " She answers, as she says that, I can't help but gaze at her. 

" Hey, look I know I am not decent right now. It's rude to stare. Stop criticizing my body in your head! Say it aloud! She snapped. 

" No!!! You're gorgeous babe. " I replied, winking. She crosses her arms around her chest and glares at me. 

" You're so hot when your mad, babe " I joked. 

" You're a total jerk!! We are in the middle of nowhere!! she said. 

" However, I think you should dress like that more. " I say, bracing myself for another glare. Instead, she laughed. 

" Can you imagine Sadie's reaction if I went to school like that? Hey, I'll look for food and you make us a shelter! " She said. 

I went into the woods and collected some twigs and branches. I thought about Becca and how oblivious she was to the fact that she was... beautiful. 

When I came back, I saw Becca sitting down on a rock. She handed me a packet of dried fruit. I took two pieces, knowing we'll need food later. 

  I rubbed two sticks together as fast as I could. I saw a native guy on TV doing it to make a fire. So far I nearly poked my eye 5 times, Becca giggled. I turned and looked at her. " Help me! " I groan. She walks towards me and pulls out something from her bag. I take it and it's matches! 

" Sorry, but it was hilarious. " she giggled. 

We laid down on the grass and stared at the sky. 

" Good Night," she said, curling up beside me. I yawn and curl up next to her. As I drift off, I worry about how we're going to survive. But right now, despite the fact that I should be hysterical about being in the middle of nowhere, I can't help but be pleased that Becca is here.
