CHRIS

As soon as we go here we were headed to the house that was rented out for us and Hawaii is beautiful the water was crystal blue I loved it. I notice that Deanna wasn't really speaking, well to at least she didn't say not two words to anyone on the 6 hour flight here she really kept to herself with her headphones on. Soon we arrived at the house and it was lovely we all went to our rooms I walked into my room which was right next to Deanna's room I sat my bags down and I sat down just resting for about 10 or 15 minutes until I finally got up and I went to her room.

^KNOCK,KNOCK^

^KNOCK,KNOCK^

^KNOCK,KNOCK^ Where is this girl, I try the knob and open the door and walk in and I see her sleep in the bed but her legs are still hanging over the side and I take her shoes off and put her legs on my bed and I close the door and kick off my shoes and I climb in the bed with her and gently rapped my arms around her and she just slept in my arms and I loved it soon I dozed off and it felt like I slept for at least a day which that wasn't the case I slept for about 5 hours.

DEANNA

I woke up find Chris holding me while he was asleep I went to the bathroom and changed my clothes to a cute bikini and I went to him and tapped him

"Chris, Chris' I said while tapping him but he was too out of it to answer so I left the room and went down stairs to where everyone else was.

"Where's Chris?" Mijo asked

"He's sleep I tried to wake up but I left a note for him, let's go! I say After 2 hours of riding, each of us was finally ready to do some Snorkeling.

"I'm scared" Bre looked down into the sea.

"What if I get eaten by a shark?" Bianca gasped.

"You won't get eaten" I laughed.

I was close to the outer reef of the island, having been snorkeling for quite a while. We had been swimming against a current and floating back towards the little motu where we had started. I found myself wandering off into deeper water by myself and had completely lost sight of any other people apart from Saliesha. They advised us not to do this but you just forget about everything else you can't help it when you are seeing sights like this.

After going through some fairly deep water at least 20 foot deep, it was getting shallower again. It was probably about 10 feet of water where it happened; I had seen a really big, grey, mean-looking fish that was not a shark but still around 4 feet long and 12 inches around. He startled me, but he went away and I started watching a small school of smaller striped fish. As I rotated to watch them, more and more joined the school and they started circling me. I held my breath and went under so I could see them better. They kept multiplying and swimming around me. It became a whirling dervish of hundreds of them, from the ocean floor to the top of the water. I wasn't frightened at all. It was just one of those beautiful, amazing moments that stop time for you. I kept rotating and they kept circling. Most of them were 4 or 5 feet away, some closer than that, but none ever touched me at all. After about 15 seconds or so, they were gone-off somewhere else as quickly as they had comes. I just floated there for minute, dazed, thinking how incredible Mother Nature is. I looked around then, hoping someone else had seen it happen, and hoping to be able to tell someone right away, but no one was close enough. I signaled Saliesha to go back up to surface and we swam back up. It took me a second to catch my breath and everybody stood on the boat looking at us.

"That was beautiful" I breathed, climbing back onto the boat.

"Shit I couldn't do it, I had to come back up, I almost had an anxiety attack" 'Maya shook her head.
