The woods

Part 27

Ollie's POV

'Zosia?!' I cry.
'O-o-Ollie?' I hear a fragile voice faintly whimper.
Weight flutters off my shoulders, she's awake.
'Zosia.' I smile. 'Can you see me?'
'Y-yes.' She shivers. 'G-et a flash-flashlight.'
I nod and rummage through my bag.
'I can see you.' I say relieved, beaming the torch at Zosia. 'I have a rope!'
I tie one end to the nearest tree and lob the rest down.
'Zosia tie the rope around your bag then hold the rope above you and I'll pull you up.' I decide.
She does as I say.
'Your too light - although it makes this a lot easier..' I mumble.
I heave her up onto the soil.
'Have fun? I laugh.
'Very funny.' She sneers, ripping her bag and muddy jacket off.
'Your welcome.' I tease.
She looks at me. 'Thank you Olive, you saved me from my depths of despair, how could I ever repay you.'
I laugh.
My hands snake around her waist and hers tuck around my neck.
'Really though, thank you.' She smiles, 10 centre meters away from my face.
I smile back and return her kiss.

Zosia's POV

I look  around. 'I thought you said there were two hammocks?' 
'I thought there was...' he lies.
'Liar. I'll just sleep on the muddy floor then... Ahhhhhh!' I scream.
Ollie literally sweeps me off my feet and chucks me onto the hammock.
'I'll let you know, floor wise.' He smiles.
'Don't need to.' I reply, leaving him space on it.
He reluctantly hops on and we lie side on.
I feel his warm, strong arms blanket me.
I rest my head on his shoulder.
'I wonder where Dom and Raf are.' I say.
'Probably in some crappy camp with one hammock.' He replies... 'Yeah I am starting to hear it now.'

Ollie's POV

She faintly laughs before I see her chest raise up and down.
'Goodnight. Sleep well.' I smile at her fragile presence.
I start getting dreamy..
'Good night.' I hear.
This might be our last night together, soon we will be in it for ourselves, and ourselves only.
