Rain pattered against the thin ceiling of the cabin, as the cold drafted through the room, sending a shiver down Mk's spine as she pulled her blanket tighter around her body. It had been hours since lights out, yet no sleep came to Mk's aid as thoughts rushed through her head at a speed faster than light.

Everything was so confusing at the moment, and what Damien had said was making it worse. I mean was there even a small chance she was a lesbian? she'd never really been romantically involved with guys.. she'd never really been romantically involved with anyone for that matter. guys had never interested her and girls hadn't really either, except for Julia.

Mk couldn't deny that when Julia's bright smile popped into her mind it spread a red dusting of blush across her cheeks and caused butterflies to flutter through her chest, but surely that was just a friend thing. everyone gets that.. right?

Even if it wasn't normal, there was no way Julia would ever be interested in Mk. Julia was a goddess compared to her. She was tall, skinny, pretty, confident, funny. she could get anyone she wanted. what was Mk compared to her? just some unimportant loser who sits at the back of the class and draws rude sketches of the teachers as they rant on about whatever lesson was being drilled into the students brain.

Julia was the star of the show, and Mk was nothing more than the irrelevant side character. Mk was lucky Julia even knew her name.

Grumbling, Mk sat up in bed, reaching for her hoodie and hat, pulling them both over her head with a groan as she swung her legs off the bed and slipped down to the floor of the cabin, wincing as the floorboards creaked under her.

she pulled her shoes on and silently slipped through the cabin door, pulling her hood up as the cold Canadian air hit her face.

she strolled over to the steps of the cabin and slumped down, leaning against the banister and burying her head in her knees as she absent mindlessly watched the insects crawl up the steps, searching for shelter from the drizzle that rained down upon them.

Mk didn't mind the rain much, she needed some fresh air and the cold was helping the pounding headache between her temples.

everything was so shit for her at the moment, her only friend had abandoned her, she was stuck on some fucked up island with a bunch of psychopaths and forced to endure insane challenges every day just for some cash so she could plan her future. there was no way she'd be going to college without the prize money, and realistically, there was no way she'd win the money either. she was fucked.

She sniffled, as tears began to roll down her face, splashing onto the wooden steps below her.

"...Mk?" a voice behind her muttered. Mk ignored it, assuming it was Priya come to check up on her. She felt a slender hand on her shoulder, but she shook it off.

"Mk" The girl demanded this time. Mk's eyes widened in recognition and she swivelled around to see Julia, still in her pyjama's. she only wore a pair of pink Victoria's secrets shorts and a white tank top. she must've been freezing.

"Julia? what do you want i thought you were blanking me" Mk sulked, once again burying her head in her knees. She felt Julia slump down to the wooden floor beside her, sighing.

"I- I was but that's not gonna fix anything" she mumbled, pure misery laced in her voice.

"I talked to Damien" Mk blurted out before she could process her own words.

"oh.." Julia sighed again "I-"

"I'm so confused Julia. I don't understand what's going on" Mk butted in, her voice cracking and a sob escaping her lips. She felt Julia's head plop onto her shoulder but didn't have the energy to push her off once again as tears began to aggressively flow down her face.

"He's... He's right.." Julia whispered, so quiet it was barely audible.

"Julia it's not that. I- Im confused about how Im feeling. I shouldn't be feeling like this it's wrong" Mk murmured weakly between sobs. She felt Julia wrap her arms around her shoulders and Mk couldn't help herself anymore. she let herself melt into the hug, burying her head in Julia's chest as her sobs quietened to small sniffles. She felt droplets of tears on her own head as Julia stopped resisting the confusion and despair rushing through her.

"It's ok" she cooed as she trailed her fingers through Mk's hair.

"Julia i like you so much it hu-" Mk's words were cut off as Julia pressed her lips against hers. Mk wanted to push her away, knowing it was wrong and her parents would disown her, but she couldn't. it felt too right. she let herself wrap her arms around Julia's shoulders as she closed her eyes and smiled into the kiss. it felt perfect. like Julia's lips were made for hers.

Julia pulled away, standing up and leaving Mk wanting more. she reached her hand out and Mk accepted it gratefully, letting Julia pull her up to her feet too. Julia shivered slightly but a smile was etched on her face.

"are you cold? do you want my jumper?" Mk asked, slightly panicked remembering Julia was wearing nothing more than shorts and a tank top in this cold rainy weather.

"Sure. Thanks" Julia smiled at her, waiting patiently as Mk pulled her jumper off and handed it over.

"Soooo.. what do we do now?" Mk asked, rocking back and forward awkwardly, trying to hide her cheeks which were flushed a bright red.

Julia let out a little giggle seeing how worked up Mk was and leaned down, once again pressing their lips together, only for a second before pulling away and whispering
"we should get some sleep"

Mk nodded, smiling to herself as her and Julia made their way back into the cabin, fingers intwined.
