Jack pov
I woke up at the same time I normally do when I brought Lily supplies. This time though I have to bring her something to sleep on as well as a water pitcher, cups, plates, and some food. I know she still has the dagger I gave her since I saw her attach it to her belt a while back. I took the small route to the forest near the caves. As I was walking with my supplies I felt someone's presence. I looked over my shoulder and called out,
"Gretta, I know it's you stop lurking in the shadows."
Gretta slowly moved out from the shadows.
"Look, Jack I get that you want to see her but is this really a good idea?" Greta asked with concern
I rolled my eyes a little at her comment then turned around to face her.
"Gretta, do you know what it's like to want something or someone so bad and it feels as if you could never be without them?"
Greta looked at me for a moment before sighing
"Jack, you literally met her, what, a month ago? How do you think that helping some pretty foreign girl is going to be a good idea. She should be dead. We don't know what happened to her and why she's here or what her mission is. Wake up Jack, she could be in an alliance with the Dark Moon Tribe. How are you going to tell your father that you protected an enemy that possibly overthrows this Tribe?"
Gretta's words made me furious who is she to tell me what kind of person Lily is. Who is she to accuse Lily of being some kind of spy!?!!
"Greta you have no place telling me what decisions to make. Don't you think I've already thought about the possibilities of who she is and where she came from or where her loyalty is? If I had any doubt in my mind that she was a dishonest then why would I bring her here!" I yelled
Gretta made an angry face, "NO! No Jack I don't think you have thought about the possibilities I think you are too caught up in her beauty that you don't care who she is!" Gretta screamed back
"Maybe I don't care! I don't care who she is or what she may do, I just want to be with her! Since you won't leave me alone about this topic maybe I should just take Lily, hop on a ship and leave this island forever!"
"And leave everything behind!" Gretta retorted back
"YES!"
And I stormed off to go get Lily.
