Island

A/N: Just picture Rayn as young Zendaya (;

7:54 PM | DAY 2

Lauren made sure Camila didn't squirm an inch, it seemed that every stick on this goddamn island made a loud breaking noise.

You could the hear figure move, the leaves rustling every step he took.

She bit her lip harshly, praying that the man would go away.

His voice sent a cold shiver down Lauren's spine, and Camila was trembling in fear.

Another figure came running, and Lauren recognized the person.

"Rayn? What are you doing here?" The deep voice asked in a demanding voice that was nothing compared to her mom's.

Lauren always thought her mother was bossy, but compared to him, she was nothing.

"I was looking for something, and I got lost."

The two figures were closer to each other, "You know you're not supposed to run off like that."

"I kno-"

He raised his hand and hit her on the cheek, the sound being loud enough for anyone to hear.

Lauren felt Camila flinch under her arms, even Lauren had to admit she was beginning to be afraid too.

She could hear Rayn whimpering after the collision.

The man cleared his voice, "It's dangerous out here, and you know you shouldn't be out here while we're hunting. Now let's head back where you'll be more safe."

Lauren waiting until the pair disappeared back into the civilized forest.

She dropped her arm, Camila and her headed they're way back to their friends.

They were both silent until Camila decided to be the first one to speak.

"What the hell was that?"

Lauren sighed, knowing she would have to explain this a lot.

"They're cannibals, and I met that girl. She helped me get back to you guys."

"Did you see how he raised his hand at her? God, just by hearing his voice makes me have goosebumps" Camila bit her lip.

Lauren noticed Camila was sunburned from the face, her cheeks had a pink tint on them, she thought it was adorable.

She carefully stepped on where she was, "Camila, you should've stayed with the group."

Camila's lip had parted in a way that seemed offended and speechless. "I went to look for you! I'm not some weak person who's going to wait around until you come back, I went to go save you. How was I supposed to know they're Cannibals on this fucking island?!"

"They're animals on this island, too. I just want you to be safe." Lauren could feel her own voice become rigid.

They stared at each other in anger, her eyes softened when she saw that Camila had a scar on her right temple.

Lauren reached over to touch it, "Camz-"

Camila stumbled back, anger still written on her features, "Fuck you, I didn't want to help you anyways."

She brushed her shoulders against Lauren, walking back to her friends.

Lauren leaned against a tree, and thought about her relationship with Camila.

It never seemed to go like the ones in a romantic movie, where the couple only have a few arguments.

Lauren and Camila always had big ones, that left them unable to pick up the pieces.
