"Why'd you do that for?" I asked and he held my chin.
"It's been awhile since I've kissed a girl" he said and my heart sank.
"So you just kiss me for no reason?" I said and he nodded.
What was I thinking he really was a jerk. These feelings aren't real it's just he saved my life and I think I owe him more. I shook my head and laid down refusing to cry.
When I woke in the morning Brett was gone and for that I was thankful.
"One day left " I mumbled and drew lines in the sand.
By noon there was still no sign of Brett and I was started to freak. I had searched along the beach with no luck.
"Brett !"
I crept through the trail scanning the surroundings. As I watched the beach vanish I was meet with another sea. A sea of green.
I caught a glimpse of a shirt and my heart leaped.
"Brett were have you been?" I said walking up to him. He didn't turn around but simply shrugged.
"Are you okay?" I turned him towards me and tears ran down his face.
"I'm fine"
"What's the matter Brett ?"
"It's like a bandaid , you keep it on to keep from things getting into it, but there's always something that gets into it and causes it to get irritated. Then when you take it off it stings" he sighed and continued," you want to be safe and guarded from everything , but it's too hard . Somewhere you end up getting hurt"
"What do you mean?"
" let's just get back to the beach , the shop should be here in the morning"
I followed him back with a heavy heart. My mind roamed about who he really was inside.
"I'm going to round up something other than coconuts and poisonous berries " he said and grabbed our makeshift spear.
With a struck of luck he got a crab. It continued to try and pinch a hunk from Brett's hand as he took it off the spear.
Brett placed it on a rock as I turned my head ,and he killed it almost instantly.
As the fire began to take life Brett roasted the crab. With roasted crab, and water from the coconuts we ate till our stomachs for once was full.
Now we just sat by the fire watching its flickering dance. I peaked through my wall of hair at him. He had a slight smile.
"Can I tell you something ?" He asked and I nodded.
"I know it sounds crazy, but I like you"
The air caught in my chest.
"What do you mean?"
"Remember when I was talking about the bandaid , well, I kept my forces up that way you couldn't get into my heart . I'm famous most girls just like me because I'm famous and they treat me like I'm special" he laughed .
"But you , you don't care . I mean you threw a coconut at me. But even with those forces I still caught feelings. I can be myself out here . " he finished and ran his hand through his hair.
"I don't want to go back to being who I'm not" he said.
"Brett , you don't have to be someone you're not . Just be you " I said and he half smiled.
He leaned forward and pressed his lips against mine. It felt right , like small fireworks erupting. Like a Disney movie kiss. I wrapped my arms spurns his neck and he cupped my cheeks. When he pulled away I was breathless.
"Promise me after tomorrow you won't forget me" I said and he smiled.
"I won't and forgive me for being such a jerk?" I nodded and he kissed me again.
" so are we like boyfriend / girlfriend kinda thing ?" I asked.
"If you wanna be then yes " I laughed and kissed him again.
It wasn't no time we fell asleep. His arms wrapped around my waist.
It felt like no time and the sun was back up again. We say close by our tents after we made our fire large enough for someone to see.
" I can't believe we were stranded on an island "
"Me either " I said and he held my hand.
We sat on the beach as the hours went on. The sun was high isn't eh sky signaling noon. We had became restless.
"Yeah they're not coming " he said and laid down.
"Maybe they're late ?" I said .
"Yeah more like lost , we're in a freaking Bermuda Triangle " he yelled.
"Brett calm down"
The sun again went to set . We laid back in our tents the mood silent.
"I mean it's not so bad " Brett said and I laughed.
" okay Brett "
"I'm serious " he said.
"Well if we're are going to stay here longer we'll have to build a better shelter " he nodded.
"Well start tomorrow"
