~Chapter Ten~
Clay...
How has he survived this long without anyone? Maybe I'm over reacting. It's been two days. The islands getting to me. This is also kinda a plus though, Clays actually nice to me. And he doesn't have any weird feelings for me I can't understand. He's not dating my best friend. And he didn't ruin my life a few years ago.
"Ashley where'd you go."
"I'm in the plane!" I yell back. Liam steps in.
"Hey man." Clay shakes Liam's had.
"Uhh hey..." Liam looks really confused. It's hilarious.
I speak up. "He survived the crash too."
"Ummm." Liam is speechless.
"It's Clay by the way."
"Liam."
"I know."
"Well! Uh- Claydo you have a shelter?" I try to break up the awkwardness.
"No I slept in a tree last night.."
"You can stay with us if you'd like. Right Liam?"
"Um yeah sure.."
"Great! You guys talk aaaaand I'll go get more water."
"You sure your good on that leg?"
"I'll manage." I say. Wow. Liam just had to make that conversation awkward. He's doing that a lot lately.
...
It's been 6 days now since we've crashed and nothing's changed since the day Clay came to the plane. Liam's played his I-don't-like-you act towards me and I really don't mind it. Clay is wonderful though. He's so kind and sweet and I enjoy spending time with him. He treats me like I'm special. He's one of those guys that have to right sized ego and isn't afraid to say what he's feeling or thinks. I spend most of my time with him, talking about anything. You could even say he and Liam have become pretty close too.
As I'm heading back to the room I hear noises from the next one ahead, that I actually haven't really been in yet.
"So uh are you and Ashley.."
"Oh. No way man I got a hot girl back home."
"You don't even slightly like her?" The second voice doesn't say anything. "That's what I thought. Let me guess. You guys have a complicated past, you thought that maybe telling her here that you made a mistake and you always liked her, it'd change things but she rejected you."
"Actually she ran away.."
"Ouch."
"How'd you know all that."
"I had a similar situation, but I was Ashley."
"That's gotta suck."
"It was painful. But I got over it. I hate to have to tell you this dude."
"You like her too don't you.."
"A lot."
"It just clicked when you saw her eyes for the first time right?"
"You know the feeling?"
"You kidding? I fell in love with her eyes the first day I saw her. I should've told her when I had the chance." Oh my gosh. Since when did they feel this way? It's like twilight without the vampires and werewolves. I can't believe I'm witnessing this.
"And to think. She probably doesn't like either of us." I think it was Clay who talks that time.
"Seriously? Dude have you seen the way she acts around you?"
"No.. I could've sworn she liked you."
"I don't wanna lose it with you. Let's just keep doing whatever we are doing and who ever she falls for she falls for? We can't make this competition."
"Shake on it?"
"Yeah man." I assume they shake hands and I sprint to the outside of the plane, like I was never there at all. The boys come out.
"Hey."
"Sup Ash."
"Oh I was uh just heading to bed.."
"Yeah it's getting dark." Liam says.
"Night then." Clay turns to leave.
"Night." Unbelievable..Their doing exactly what they agreed on. Staying the same.
And they have know clue I overheard them...
