Chapter three - I Promise

Kailey's POV

I step out of the bloodbath our plane has become and I cough in to my hand. Some blood splatters from my coughing but I bet it's nothing. As I look around, I am shocked at how beautiful this island is, if only we were on a vacation and not stranded. "We have to find some type of shelter....who knows what is on this island." I say as I turn around to the girls. "How about you and Katie check if any of the group is living while I look around the wreckage for emergency gear." Boxy says and I nod along with Katie. I want to know who is alive, I hope he is not dead.

Me and Katie walk back in to the plane and I look at the back of the plane. Immediately I grow sick and hold back to on coming throw up. I can't throw up, who knows the next time I'll actually eat something? "Want me to take the back for you?" "No I got it." I smile weakly at Katie and she returns the same one. Hopefully, no one I'd dead. I head in to the back of the plane and I check each row carefully. Mothers, fathers and children....all dead. I get to my friends and I softly touch the side of one of my best friends face. God he can't be dead. He isn't cold but yet there is a lot of dried blood on his forehead.

I start to wake up all my friends and soon enough they all wake up...well almost all of them. As we all sit at the fire, some of us are dead silent, some crying and there's Graser trying to lighten the mood by cracking jokes. Oh god, does that count as a pun because Straub's head was cracked open? Or maybe it relates to the way Mark's heart was cracked open by a shard of metal. They didn't deserve to die. No one deserves to die. "Look at the way the fire moves...almost like its wav-" "Just shut up Graser!" My eyes widen as I turn to Gary, it's so unlike him to snap at someone.

"Don't yell at him! He's just trying to lighten the mood!" Will is right to Graser's defense and I try to speak up but I'm cut off, "Graser deserved it! How dare he make 'fun' when our best friends have just died!" Bianca screams at Will and I'm just at a lost for words at this point. "Woah Woah Woah! We all need to calm down. I know our friends just died but it doesn't mean we all fall apart! We need to stick together." Brayden points out and I nod in agreement, "Brayden is right. Us being mad at each other won't work, this isn't cube civil war. This is real life and we, sadly, are stuck on a fucking island. Mitch adds on and everyone just stays silent.

"I'm sorry Zach...." Huahwi says to Graser and Bianca repeats his words. "I-It's fine." I sigh and get up. "I'm going to the hut. Last person up, make sure to wake me up, someone needs to take night watch." I walk to the small make shift hut that a few of the boys made and I lay down. With a sigh, I close my eyes and dream of how it would be like to be at VidCon instead of on this damn island. Sleep overcomes me quickly but I feel like I have only slept for an hour as someone starts to shake me awake.

I get up and smile softly at Bianca, "you can go to sleep." She whispers a thanks back and goes to lay down. I sigh lightly and step out of the hut. I sit by the dying out fire and look at my toes, I stupidly only brought flip flops on the plane with me. Footsteps. I look to my left and out walks a wild Bayani. I smile lightly at him and he returns it with a light smile. He walks over and sits next to me. "Looks like you need some company."

"Company would be great." He smiles at me and I smile back, then I look back in to the fire. We sit in a comfortable silence and I didn't mind it, silence is all that I needed. I needed comfort and silence, everything just felt so messed up and I just need this little act of relaxation. I lean my head on his shoulder and he leans his head on to mine. "Jordan?" I whisper. "Yeah?" He whispers back. "I'm scared that we will never make it home." I feel him tense a bit and I just know I messed up this moment. But he mumbles out, "I am too. We just need to stick together."

I nod a bit and he wraps an arm around my waist to pull me closer. "Plus, all of us will kill to protect you. Well...I know I would." I smile softly at his words and whisper out, "I would do anything to keep you all safe. Thank you for this, Baeani." He chuckles softly and I smile at his laugh as I close my eyes. I again dream of a happier place and slowly slip to sleep. As I fall asleep I feel a kiss on my forehead and Jordan's words, "We are all going to be okay Kailey, I promise."
