Like I'm gonna lose you (Clawen)

For Survival

CLAIRE'S POV

I smiled as Karen and I broke from our embrace. It had been forever since I had seen Karen. I watched Karen and her family huddle together, it tugged at my heart. I didn't know what to do next but surprisingly I didn't care that I didn't have a plan for once. I scanned the room searching for Owen. I saw him. We slowly made our way through the distressed people and met in the middle. I just looked  into his deep blue eyes, probably not my best idea as I just get lost in them. "So what now" I said, my voice was almost a whisper. "Probably stick together...for survival" He said smirking slightly. I was hoping for something a bit more romantic but I should of known that it's the best I'm going to get from the guy who wears board shorts on the first date. He walked off whilst I stood there smiling to myself a few seconds longer.

I walked outside to find Owen talking to Lowery on the bench. "Oh, Claire" Lowery gasped with his hand over his mouth. He pulled me into a much needed hug, I was tense at first but softened as it was too much energy. "I heard you out ran Rexy in your heels" he said pulling away. "Yeah" I struggled a smile as I was exhausted. I followed Lowery's eyes to Vivian, "I'm gonna go, look after yourselves and I'll try to be in touch" he said before jogging over to her. "Let's get on the boat you look exhausted" Owen said wrapping an arm around my waist.

We boarded the boat and took a seat. 5 minutes into the journey I started to feel queasy. "Claire, are you okay? You've turned green" Owen sounded concerned. I Got out of my seat and dashed to the loo, no way was I going to be sick over the side of the boat. Knock knock knock. "Claire it's me, do you want some water?" Owen called through the door. "Yes please" I replied in between throwing up. I came out the toilet just as Owen came back with some water and a bread roll.

"The colour has come back to your face" Owen said after I took the last part of the bread roll. I snuggled into Owen wanting some sleep, I was just about to drift off when my sister came over. "Claire Dearing, you think you can leave without saying goodbye?? And who's this?? Are you going to introduce us??" Karen sounded like our mother. I mentally face palmed, Karen gets way too excited about my love life. "Sorry, I got distracted. This is Owen Grady, Owen meet my sister Karen and her husband Scott Mitchell", I said sitting up. "Please to meet you" Owen politely offered his hand out to them. "Owen is Claire's boyfriend, he saved us from the I-Rex" Gray added. I shot him a cold look so he quickly shut his mouth. "OH MY GOSH, I knew you would find someone" Karen squealed, so high pitched that I barely understood her. I just smiled at her whilst Owen put his arm round me. 10 minutes later we docked. "Let's go home" Owen said as we walked off hand in hand.

A/N: This is my first Clawen fanfic. I hope you liked it, it probably wasn't that good but it was just the prologue. I promise that the next chapter will be loads better. I am writing a Zach Mitchell fanfic so feel free to check that out as well.
Ciao for now✨
