I was totally cut up. My head had a cut right above my eyebrow and I had cracked a rib. I tried to sit up but I listened to my body and layed back down. I closed my eyes. I waited for about an hour then I tried once more to stand up. I got on my knees. I couldn't hardly breathe or move because of my ribs. I tried to move myself to my feet, but as soon as I got to my feet my world went black from my pain.
I opened my eyes, where was I? I was in a very nice bamboo hut. I was laying on a gras bed. I went to move but I saw tunnel vision and from there I drifted in and out of conciosness.
I woke up the next morning and what I saw made me jump, There was a twelve foot boa constricture two feet away from me. It slithereed closer to me. I lay as still as I could. The snake slithered on top of me and I cringed at the weight on my ribs. Then, I screamed, a blood curdling, piercing scream as it started to wrap around my body. Then, another shock came to me. A tall blonde boy ran in and his eyes snapped open in surprise at the sight in front of him. Then he grabbed a rock offf the dirt floor in the shack. He came over and grabbed the green head. He started to bang the rock down, and as he did his biceps popped out, the vein in his arm was visible as he flexed. He banged the rock as hard as he could. I yelled in pain, I could feel my ribs cracking more and I gasped for air. The constricters body sqeezed tighter, and tighter, as The blond boy tried to pull it off. Finally one last blow to the head killed the creature. I gasped, and then spots showed. I looked ahead of me and saw the boy leaning over me. I looked into his stormy gray eyes, then the world dissolved into black.
It took me two days to wake up. My body was recovering from the damage done to it. I woke up. My head was drowsy, but I was tired of it being dark. All of the sudden the handsome boy walked in.
" You feeling better?" He asked, I smiled on the inside,Oh how deep and sweet his voice was.
" A little. I can't say how much I have to thank you for not leaving me on the ground." I said. I felt so small just looking at his six four frame.
" It's ok. How did you get here anyway? This is kind of a remote Island no one knows about." I groaned, He had just confirmed my deepest fear. No one knows about it, therefore, if no one sees me in the ocean they will think I'm dead and totally forget me.
" I was in a surfing accident, the flag was red and I shouldn't have been riding anyway. I fell off and the rip tide caught me. I haven't had water in a week now, just coconut milk." I said. The boy emmediatly got up and went outside. Rude, I thought to myself. Then he walked back in with a coconut with a hole in the top. He handed it to me. More coconut juice, I thought. But when I drank it I tasted sweet, cold, water. I started to guzzle not caring how much water spilled on me. when I finished I wiped my mouth with the back of my hand. I winced when the cut on my hand was touched. "Thanks." I said, He smiled his welcoming lopsided smile.
" Oh, I'm Kade." The boy stormy eyes locked on mine. My mind wsent fuzzy. I shook my head slightly.
" I'm Dessiree Porter." I said smiling my straight perfect smile. My white teeth flashed at him. I had been told that when I smiled my eyes sparkled, and I looked like a girl who welcomed anyone.
'' Well, It's nice to have someone here, instead of just living by myself." Kade said.
"How did you get here?'' I asked out of curiosity.
" Me and my dad were fishing just off of Maui when a storm hit. It took our boat away in the current. Dad... Dad was taken down with it. I grabbed a piece of wood and the current brought me here." Kade got choked up on his own words. I felt bad for him. I was glad that I got here without anyone else bieng hurt.
" i have an extra shack, you could stay in it, and we could work together to get back to our homes." He said looking at me with puppy dog eyes. I had to make a decision, but how could I make a good one with him being a stranger?
