Cruz POV

VANESSA, VANESSA, VANESSA!, I screamed. Why the hell did I let her of? I managed to swim her back to the beach. "VANESSA, VANESSA, Cindy call my parents QUICKLY. I could tell she still had a pulse but she was unconscious.

"VANESSA, VANESSA" I yelled as I tapped her face I couldn't bear the thought of anything happening to her. "VANESSA PLEASE, COME ON BABY PLEASE" I pleaded determined to wake her up when I heard a faint cough come from her mouth.

"Huh, ughhhhhhh" she coughed out, I never such relief in life I just hugged her.

"Vanessa, you okay?" I said ready to attend to her every beck and call.

She coughed out a bit of water and turned to me with those eyes that made it impossible to not just want to hold her. I pulled her up and brought her closer to my chest. "Yea I think except I may have swollen half the sea", she managed to say drowned voice.

I let out a gentle laugh,"Vanessa, Oh My Gosh never do that to me again I don't think I could handle it", I said meaning every word to the fullest extent.

"I'm sorry it's just you guys are all about the surf and the water and I just wanted to fit in", I looked at her,she had turned her face away and I cold see a sudden increase in water that hit the sand. I turned her face to see tears running down her face I couldn't help but want to secure her in my arms. I pulled her in closer so she could my warmth and somehow comfort her.

"Vanessa it's okay, don't cry you did nothing wrong, u just gave us a fright, I said trying to sound comforting. I soon heard the screech of car tires and Cindy calling two mysterious people over. As the shadows soon became human I realized it was my parents by the looks on my fathers face I had a feeling that this may all turn in my direction.

"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED ARE YOU ALRIGHT VANESSA?", my father yelled towards me. I looked down at Vanessa to see terror in her eyes and a built up of tears gaining.

"John calm down can't you see your terrifying the kids, are you all right Vanessa", my mum seeing the real issue here. I once more looked down at Vanessa to see she was lost of that she waswords and clearly traumatized by today's events.

"Yea she is just a little shaken up and dad booming in here like mental case didn't help", I said practically mustering up what everyone thought.

"Yea well I was just worried that's all sorry guys", he apologized which was very rare for my father usually he had a problem with admitting when he wrong.

"It's okay, I'm just sorry to cause all this fuss and arguing and really it's no ones fault but mine so I take full responsibility", she said finally speaking up.

"We'll everyone's okay so why don't we get Vanessa back to camp so she can warm up and get changed" my mother said smiling at Vanessa.

"Yea, but I will also need to chat to Cruz alone to know exactly what happened when he was meant to be in charge, my father said giving me a look the made me hesitant. I picked up Vanessa in bridal clasp and lead her to the car,.

"I'm sorry", Vanessa said once more with watery eyes I just smiled and pulled her close in. Cause I was sorry to, I was sorry that I didn't stop her and that she had no idea how much my feelings for her had grown over the whole thing. The drive back to camp was silent but I knew that things where about to get a whole lot more verbal.
