Stranded Survival // Ethan Dolan

Chapter 5: A Trip?

We stared into each other's eyes, and our faces slowly got closer. Our eyes closed and our lips pressed against each other. I could feel fireworks in my stomach and my cheeks light up. Our kisses became rougher and Ethan picked me up and walked to some trees. I didn't need the fire to feel warm anymore. Every time he touched me, my body would just light up.

Ethan lifted up my shirt and started kissing my neck while smiling. I lifted up his shirt and kissed every single one of his abs. We suddenly heard a loud noise from the bushes and we stopped. Could there be a worse timing than this? Ethan stopped and me to wait, using his hands. He slowly walked towards the loud noise.

Apparently, there was nothing there, but the noise did wake up Grayson. "Hello?" We ducked down and put our clothes on. We came out of the bushes to see Grayson. "Hey Gray, me and Kayla were bringing food for tomorrow."

"Ethan, are you having a boner?" Ethan shockingly looks down and stutters. "Uhh..I..We.." I quickly pressed my hand on Ethan's mouth. "He had a weird dream about hot girls." Grayson nodded while rubbing his eyes. I guess I could help you guys finding food."

We split up. I went and searched for coconuts. Ethan was trying to find crabs and Grayson only found berries.
Half an hour later and we came back with all the food we collected. I got 6 coconuts, Ethan had 2 crabs and Grayson had filled his shirt with berries. "Let's leave the food at the fire and get some sleep."

The next day, when I woke up, I smelled food. Crabfood. Right. I got up and let's say that if was around 11:00 am. I saw mister Smith, looking at the fire. Ethan sat next to him, holding something that looks like a spear.

"What did you make?" "A spear to catch fish with. We need a lot of food for our trip." "Trip?" "Yeah, trip. We can't stay here. There must be something on this island, this is HUGE ." That's what she said. I suggest we should get as much meat as we can."

Without thinking too much I started helping Ethan. Every time he would catch a fish I would kill it. We would put them in some tin foil and place them with the coal. I made my breakfast: berries and some fish. Those survival shows really paid off.

"Where is Grayson?" "Trying to find some stuff on the plane." Ethan said. I looked at the plane to see Grayson swim back with 2 suitcases. Carissa came up behind me. "WHAAH!" Carissa yelled, trying to scare me. "Oh, hey Veronica." "Why can't I scare you?" "Because you're not that scary."

"Did you know that Ethan wants to search through the island?" "Yeah. I mean, we can't just stay here. We need to find civilization. Maybe there are other people. Like Indians." "No way that Indians are going to save us. They would probably kill us."

Veronica looks at me. "You should have a little more faith in life. We are going to get out of here. I bet in less than 2 months. Maybe, we will be able to make it to the school dance." "How can you be so optimistic? I mean we're on this island with 4 other people, from which one is our perverted teacher that keeps looking at my butt." "Because I don't want to lose my hope." I stared at her.

She was right. With this attitude, we weren't going anywhere. "You're right. Come, let's try to find coconuts." Veronica nodded.

Looking at the sky, it was probably around 22:00. We were all sitting around our campfire. "We should let 2 people stay awake at night." The other girl said, whose name was Sharon. "Veronica, we can stay awake." Sharon said. "Sure, I could stay awake. Then we can collect food too." "Well, you go do your thing. I'm going to sleep." Grayson said as he fell asleep on the ground.

I laid on the ground and I heard mister Smith behind me. "Kayla, are you warm enough because it is pretty cold and we need to share body heat." Is this guy serious? "N-no th-thank you." "Well you're stuttering, so you're probably cold." Or you just freak me out.

I'll sit next to her." Ethan said." "Listen, young man. You need your sleep. A girl like Kayla would probably move around while sleeping." "Wait wha-" "I insist. Ethan said, stepping up." "And you need your rest. You're not getting any younger." ''Fine. I'm 42 by the way. That's not that old." Mister Smith said while laying down somewhere else.

Ethan laid down next to me, laying his arm on my waist. "Thanks." I whispered to Ethan. "I am not letting that pervert put a finger on you." I pressed myself against Ethan and went to sleep.
