Ross' pov

I woke up the next morning with Laura in my arms. I smile, untangling myself from Laur. I go out to the others to see them sitting and talking about looking for more food today. When are we going to get off of this island? People are getting restless. Rydel and Riker are starting to fight more, and they NEVER fight. Apparently theyre not on speaking terms right now. Rocky is always off doing his own thing, not wanting to get between his two siblings. Raini and Calum are fighting more than ever. Im just hoping Laura and I dont turn out like that. Sitting down between Rocky and Riker, I grab an apple and some water, and just watch everyone talk, thinking of how were going to get out of here. I see Laura walk out of the tent, she doesn't look too good, uh-oh.

Laura's pov
I woke up with a huge headache. How fun. -_- . I look around the fort and see that noone is there. Thanks for waking me up guys. *note the sarcasm* I go to stand up and almost fall over, but I quickly catch myself. I quickly get changed into the sweatpants that I packed, along with the sweatshirt that Ross gave me. I quickly put my hair up into a high ponytail, and walk out to the others, well, I try to anyway. They all turn their heads to me. Great, I bet I even look terrible. I sit down by Ross without saying anything. He just looks at me and puts his arm around me, giving me a small smile, and continues to eat his food. Why am I the only one feeling like this? I dont feel like walking, talking, or....I just dont feel like doing anything right now. I get up and walk to th shore without throwing a glance to anyone. I sit by the shore, looking out at the ocean, feeling the waves hit my feet. I lie down and put my arm over my face, blocking out the sun. A couple of minutes later, I start to hear footsteps. I dont bother looking up though, I know its not gonna be anyone that I dont know though, I mean, who else would get stranded here? I feel someone sit next to me, putting their arm around me.

???: You ok?

Rocky.

Laura: Not really.

Rocky: Whats wrong?

Laura: Everything. What isn't wrong? Were all trapped here, because of me, not to mention this fricken pounding in my head.

Rocky: Im sorry, and you and I both know its not your fault, what would Ross say if he heard you say that.

Laura: That Im right?

He just gives me a look.

Laura: Im sorry, but just cuz you guys say its not my fault, doesn't mean its not. Doesnt mean I'm not gonna think that.

Rocky: You are too hard on yourself Mac,*he says smiling at me* just try and relax ok? I dont want you to hurt yourself ok?

I nod, and watch him walk back to the others.

I get up, I want to just relax by the waterfall.

Laura: Im heading to the waterfall

I go to turn away when an arm pulls me back.

Ross: Your not going by yourself.
Laura: I'll be fine Ross, Im a big girl, I can take care of myself.

Ross: Im going with you then. Let me put on a sweatshirt.

He goes to turn away and I just groan.

Laura: WHY DOES HE ALWAYS BABY ME!? IM NOT A LITTLE GIRL! I CAN TAKE CARE OF MYSELF!

I dont care anymore, Im going without him. I turn to leave when I hear Rocky, mumble Shes gonna be in trouble.

I just roll my eyes and walk away.
