Caught in the Current

The Island

~Sky's POV~

My eyes fluttered slightly and i heard a scuffle a few feet away.  Ignoring it, I yawned and stretched my arms out, hitting something cold, damp, and rubbery.  What the..?  I opened my eyes and looked around groggily.  Blinking a few times to focus my eyes i turned my head to a yellow fabric.  A look of confusion passed my face before realization hit me. Oh yeah... We crashed...  I looked up only to be blinded by the sun. Grunting, i heaved myself onto my elbow and looked around some more.  Palm trees swayed in a slight breeze about ten feet away from me, behind them lay a whole forest of tropical beech trees, speckled with palm trees every now and then.  There wasn't much shrubbery, but just enough for animals to reside in them without being discovered.  I was laying down in my life raft on the sand right between the ocean and the forest.  It doesn't look like a large island... maybe a mile or two in every direction.

I sat up and looked over to the ocean, since i was facing the forest when i woke up.  I nearly jumped out of my skin when i saw two teen boys staring at me not even two feet from my face. 

"Um, hi?" My greeting came out more like a question.

They stayed silent, watching me. 

I raised one eyebrow and spoke again, more like myself this time, strong and independent, "Alright then, i guess i'll just leave you two alone..." I stood and went to grab the two packs that Sara and Amanda happily 'donated' to m, only to find they weren't there.  I furrowed my eyebrows, thinking.  Then turned to the two boys who were now smirking and leaning back a bit.  I glared at them and questioned them with an icy tone, "Where are my bags?" 

The blonde's smirk widened, "What bags?"

My light blue eyes darkened, "My bags, i'm pretty sure you know what i'm talking about since they're behind that log you two are sitting on." I smirked and continued to criticize their carelessness. "It so happens that throwing the bags behind you when I wake up doesn't help in hiding them from me." I sat back and pointed to the large lump of my bag visible from where i was sitting.

His face paled and he looked behind him then shoved the brown haired kid off the log.  The other kid's eyes widened before he got a faceful of sand.  He quickly stood up and yelled, "What was that for?!"

The blonde's smirk turned into a grimace and said, "Because you didn't hide the bags before, when i asked you!"

"Oh..." The brunette frowned and rubbed the back of his neck a little and stared at the ground.  I couldnt help the small chuckle that escaped my lips at the two boy's argument.  Unfortunately, they didn't find my laugh or their act as hilarious or acceptable as i thought.
