     "Why were you with him?" Adam asked Ashley for the thousands time, while she just ignored him.
I have absolutely no idea what they were bickering about but it was starting to annoy me. Right now we were headed to the river with two cars following behind. One with Drew, Samantha, and Mikey, and the other with Miles and his friends. I was not happy about it.
Last night after the cookout, Samantha so happily invited Miles and his friends to come along. All I wanted was to spend a day with my friends and James, which really hasn't been an option this whole time. Last night him and Miles were too busy arguing about stupid shit and fighting over who knows me best. Once we got back to the cabins I for sure thought I could spend time with him, but he kept having to go outside and call someone.
"Ashley, I'm not going to ask you again."
"Then don't."
"Why were you with him!!!" Adam screamed. Which frightened me a bit, I was so confused and sick of his questions.
"Oh my god, with who? Maybe I could answer." I asked Adam.
He gave me a blank look. "Drew."
I knit my brows in confusion, why would he be mad if they were together? The thought of those two together just made me laugh, an uncontrollable laugh.
"Are you kidding?" I exclaimed while wiping tears of laughter off my cheeks.
Adam looked even more furious then before.
"No, I'm not. You're fucking brother was in the river with my girlfriend yesterday!"
"Okay watch it he's my brother, and he loves to bother her so he was just trying to annoy her." The fact he was so mad about this was hilarious. Drew and Ashley, I inwardly gag at the thought.
"Whatever." Adam huffed while turning back facing the road.
Finally I got to enjoy the rest of the car ride in peace.

Once we got to the river we all helped set up everything so we could spend the whole day.
Right now we were all splashing around in the water, going down the Rapids, and jumping off tall rocks. Except for James, right now he was on the phone. It was really starting to get on my nerves, but it could be important I really don't know.
Getting too lost in thought I didn't realize I was floating toward the white water.
"Alley!!" Mikey yelled trying to reach for me. I was trying my hardest to swim out of it, and I'm a pretty strong swimmer and I know the river pretty well, enough to know the white Rapids were not a good place to end up. Everyone was trying to get me but I was moving too fast in the Rapids for them to reach me in time.
Trying to stand up is the main thing on my mind because that's the only way I could get out of this. Once I could steady my feet on something I was able to stand but the Rapids were too strong and pulled me back down.
This is it, this is the end. So young, so amazing what a waist. The water was pulling me under, I couldn't move because the water was coming at me in all different directions. Finally my head was fully under water, everything in my body went cold, I was numb, I couldn't hear the fear in my friends voices anymore, everything went black.
Then something was pulling me up, it felt like two arms around me holding me close to them. This person was warm, I felt safe with this person. Am I dead? Is this heaven? Oh my god I am dead!! I know I'm not breathing I must be dead right?
I still couldn't see or hear anything, I could just feel. I wasn't cold anymore, and it seemed as if I was lying on something hard. Ouch! There was a lot of pressure hitting my chest, it felt like two hands beating down on them. Next there was, well what I think it was, lips on mine forcing air into my lungs. I could feel my lungs start to work again, the oxygen filling them each time the persons lips hit mine.
"She's breathing!!" I could hear a familiar voice cry, Ashley? That sounded a lot like my best friend, wow God has the Angels sound like your friends that's really nice. I could feel the same two arms lift me up and pull me into them into a warm embrace. I held onto the warm angel like thing letting it's body heat radiate into my cold  , almost lifeless body.
"Oh my god Alley, can you hear us?!" Samantha? You're here too?
"I thought I lost you, thank God you're alive." The Ashley voice whispered. Alive? Oh my god I am alive, that means the one holding me is the one who saved me. I really wanted to open my eyes to see, but my body wasn't ready.
Then I was being lifted onto my Heroes lap, while they held me even tighter. This was probably James, he would always risk himself to save me, oh I love him.
Finally I was able to open my eyes so I could look at my hero, James. I peeked through my lashes and looked up to be met with a pair of big blue irises. Wait? Blue eyes, James doesn't have Blue eyes. Who has blue eyes?? I opened my eyes further to look at my heroes full face. Miles, I glanced at his worried features, his eyes looking intently into mine.
      "Alley?" He crooked, I think he was crying.
I just couldn't look away from his eyes, I was in complete shock. Where was James? Why were Miles eyes so nice? Why was he so warm? And why do I feel so safe in his arms? So many questions were buzzing around my head, I was just so confused.
      My heart was pounding, I almost died, and Miles saved me. I wanted to thank him or say something but I couldn't I was just in shock.
     "Alley, are you okay?" I could hear Ashley cry. I pulled my attention off of Miles, which took a lot of effort, to look at my best friends. Ashley was crouched next to me in full blown tears, Drew was crouched next to her also crying his eyes out, Samantha was in Mikey's arms both of them crying, Adam was lying on the ground panting, The twins were in panic, Kyle and Alex looked like they shit their pants, and James.... Where the fuck is James? Why wouldn't he be here?
     Still in Miles arms I look at him and whispered "Thank you".
***
    We were back at the camp site shortly after the incident. I tried to tell them I was okay and we could stay but none of them were having it. When we're getting in the car to leave, James was on the phone, who was that important!! I could be dead right now and he wouldn't have a fucking clue!!
       Ashley had informed him on what happened and he tried to console me but Miles wouldn't let him. Miles never let me go after, he even rode in the car with us back to the camp site, leaving zero room for James to join.
      Once we were back to the camp site, I was still too weak to walk so Miles carried me to my cabin and tucked me in.
      "You scared the shit out of me." He exclaimed tossing his muscular arms above his head.
      "I don't really remember much, what exactly happened?" I looked up at Miles in confusion, his face was filled with worry and fear.
       "All I remember is hearing Mike scream your name." He winced at the memory, but continued, "Then I heard everyone go into panic, I was still very confused because I couldn't exactly see what was going on. Once I could a hit of adrenaline rushed through my body, I dove in after you not thinking twice about it. You were swimming so hard to try and get yourself out, reaching for our hands, but the Rapids were too strong." He paused and took a deep breath, "and that's when I though I lost you. Your head submerged fully under the water and I could hear Ashley and Samantha's screams. Dill wanted to see if we could make a human chain to reach you, but I knew we didn't have a lot of time so I just dove in after you." He dove into that just to save me? "I couldn't see anything, I was being thrown around by the Rapids, once I felt you I pulled you to me and threw you out of the Rapids."
   I gasped in reply, "What, why did you do that? You could have been killed!" I questioned. "I knew I was fine, I just wanted to save you. Everything in my body was dead set on Saving you, and I did. I got my self out of the Rapids and swam to you. I carried you out of the water and did CPR, when you finally started to breathe, I did too.
      We just looked af each other, staring into each others eyes. He has such beautiful eyes, his hair was messy and his pink lips were parted. I looked back to his eyes and could see that he noticed I was staring at his lips.
      Before I knew it he was leaning in towards me and I was leaning towards him too. And in that moment I was flying.
