The Plane Crash

//5//

Tara

I woke up in the middle of the night and Harry was gone.

"Harry?," I called out,"Harry where are you?"

"Right here, Tara, just getting some fresh air"

"I'm coming out too" I crawled my out of our hut and into the fresh, breezy air. I stretched my arms out and sat in the sand. Harry was standing by the water, letting it climb about halfway to his ankle and then it would slither back down.

"How come you woke up?" I questioned

"Because I wasn't really that tired, and I'm too busy thinking if we're ever gonna get out of here"

"Yeah" I started to play with my hands the way I always did when I was nervous.

"Harry, can I ask you something?"

"Sure" he turned around and walked to me and he kept his gaze on me.

"Do you think we'll ever see each other again after this, after we get rescued?"

"Of course" he smiled at me, but I didn't quite believe his smile. I'd started to grow attached to him ever since he gave me that gorgeous blue flower. I looked down at the grainy sand.

"I'm hungry"

"Well then grow drink some of the coconut milk silly" he teased

"Okay, I'll be back" I went inside and did exactly as he teaches me. I hit the rock at the center of the coconut and it split. I took a couple of gulps of the milk and offered some to Harry. He did the same as me. Then after I put the coconut safely away, I came back out and sat down beside Harry in the very shallow part of the ocean; where the small waves came. He looked at me and then wrapped his warming arms around me and kissed my cheek.

"We'll get out of here, I just feel it" he said

Harry

I liked having her in my arms, her body was so fragile and she was calm. I kissed her cheek and I saw her smile. Whenever she asked me if I thought we would ever see each other again after we were rescued, I really had no idea. I'd hoped so, but I just wasn't sure. I could've always given her my mum's cell phone number to call until I got a new phone. I'd tell her the number on the rescue plane.

I let go of her and managed to walk back to bed, I was tired again and I fell asleep fast.

I woke up about midday to Tara shouting and screaming my name

"HARRY WAKE UP!!" She sounded excited and hopeful. I wondered what she was yelling about so I got up and went outside. There up in the sky, was a different helicopter, this one was army green. We shouted and waved for the helicopter. And finally, it was starting to descend onto the sand. I pulled Tara into a bear hug and we both were crying tears of joy. They helped us onto the helicopter and we explained everything to them that had happened. How the plane crashed, how we survived. We were on that island for 7 days. They gave us warm blankets, food, and water to drink. They also gave us some clean clothes to put on and we'd take showers when we got home.

Tara

Harry and I were crying tears of joy and we explained to the guy that helped us what had happened. I was so exhausted too. But I was also afraid that I'd never see Harry again.

"Excuse me, sir?"

"Yes, Tara?" The guy answered

"Will I get to see Harry again?"

"Most likely, yes" he confirmed. I breathed a sigh of relief and hugged Harry.

"That reminds me.....,"Harry said,"Let me give you my mum's number and whenever you call, she can give me the phone and we can meet up or something"

"Okay" I smiled. He have me the number and the flight attendant gave me a piece of paper to write it on. I put it in my pants pocket after I changed into the new clothes in the very small bathroom.
