Counting Down

Chapter 24: Way to ruin my vacation

"Hey mom." I say sitting down in the dining hall for breakfast with her.

"Hey sweetie." she says taking a bite from her crossiant. "I want you to be careful today." she says still chewing. Gross

"Why?" I ask

"Aparently there was a shark attak in South beach." I literally choke on my orange juice as I hear the wrods escape her lips.

"WHAT?" I cry drawing attention to our table

"Geez, calm down Sky!" he hisses obviously embarassed "It was a small shark. A black tip shark. The guy isn't dead I just want you to be careful."

My mind flashes back to last night when Derek's foot was bleeding. What if his blood attracted the shark and while the shark was on it's way to come eat us he found some other guy on the way and bit him instead? It's all Derek's fault!

"Excuse me." I say getting up from my chair and running up to my floor. I knock on the door opposite to mine several times immpatiently. Finally, the door opens

"What do you want?" A sleepy Blake groans. I can't help but notice he isn't wearing a shirt and his perfectly outlined muscles are on display

"Is Derek here?" I ask barging into the room

"Yeah, he's in the shower." he says. I am about to point an accusing finger at him but then I realize I can hear the sound of the water running.

"UGHH!" I groan flopping onto their bed, face first into a pillow. I feel him sitting next to me. "Let me be, Blake!" I speak into the pillow. My voice is muffled by the pillow

"Look Sky," he says placng a hand on my shoulder. I flinch away. "I'm sorry about kissing you that night I--"

"Kissing is an understatment" I say rolling over to face him "It was more like tongue raping" he sighs

"i'm just sorry." he says giving me a look that actually looks genuine. "I don't know what happened to me. Can we just -- can we just start over?" at that second Derek comes out of the bathroom wearing nothing but a white towel wrapped around his waist

"DEREK!" I scream running up to him angrily pointing a finger at him "THANKS TO YOU AND YOUR BLOODY FOOT A MAN IN IS THE HOSPTIAL!"

"Woah... what?" he is still recovering from the shock "Skylar, when did you get here?" I ignore his question

"THE BLOOD ON YOUR FOOT ATTRACTED A SHARK AND A MAN IN SOUTH BEACH WAS BITTEN BY A BLACKTIP SHARK! YOU KNOW HOW DANGEROUS THAT SHARK SOUNDS?!"

"Uh Sky---" he start but I cut him off

"THAT MAN PROBABLY HAS A FAMILY OR SOMETHING AND WHAT IF HE LOST A LEG AND WHAT IF HE BLEEDS TO DEATH!"

"Sky--"

"NO! DON'T INTERUPT ME! I'M NOT DONE! IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT DEREK! ALL YOUR FAULT! I JUST CAN'T BELIVE THAT --"

"SKYLAR!" he bellows which shuts me up "I wasn't really bleeding." he states "I just wanted to scare you." he smiles sheepishly

"YOU LITTLE BITCH!" I raise my hand to slap him but Blake catches my wrist mid air

"Alright, that's enough anger for today." he says breaking the fight "Go back to your room Sky"

Sorry it's short! I have so much homeowrk to do today plus I found out I might have this serious throat thing that I need medication for for my whole life plus my head hurts!
