NICOLE'S P.O.V
After trying to eat shark meat, but failing, the sun started setting.

Freddie and I laid on the roof of a broken car. The past possession of some human.

"Are you gonna be able to sleep?" Freddie asked, his British voice filling the silence of the night in a whisper.

"I don't know. There's too much on my mind." I sighed.

"Let it out."

"Chandler may be dead." I said quickly. It had been digging through my chest the whole time.

"Or he may be alive. We don't know."

Tears started to fill my eyes. I didn't know what to think. I finally just broke down into sobs.

"Nicole...it's okay." Freddie moved close to me and let me rest my head on his chest.

"Thanks for...being here..." I sniffled into his shirt.

"I'll always be here." He smiled.

I looked up at him with teary eyes but a grin. His blue eyes glistened off the disappearing sun, giving his skin a nice glow.

Our faces got close and soon enough, our lips gently reached each others. He cupped my face with his hands as the kiss progressed. Our lips moved in a perfect harmony, mine being chapped from the ocean, but his still as soft as a blanket.

"How do you do it?" He said in between kisses.

"What?"

"Attract every boy you meet. You're so beautiful..."

"I don't know..."

I wrapped my arms behind his neck and pulled him closer. His body was against mine, it hurt slightly from me being injured in the tsunami, but I didn't care. I was lonely. Desperate. Wait...

"I can't..." I pulled away,"I can't do this..."

"Why not?"

"I'm with Chandler..."

"A dead man."

"What? You just told me he might be alive...?"

"Like I was gonna say I'm positive he's dead on the spot."

"You-"

Then, the car shifted backwards, pulling towards the ocean. Everything was pulling back.

The water was muddy, but still. In the distance a figure formed.

"You better be bloody kidding me." His voice said harshly but quiet.

My breath hitched as I let out three words,"A second wave..."
