[Thomas' POV]

When I awoke, the sun was barely visible on the horizon. It took me a second to remember that I had survived a plane crash, and was on a raft in the middle of the ocean with a man by the name of James. Then another thing popped into thought, I looked beside me to see a small figure resting against my shoulder, and I realized that that figure was James.

His frame moved up and down, his breath showing on this cold morning. I put my arm around him, and held him closer. At least he was sleeping.  It wasn't gay if he was sleeping.   But to my dismay this didn't last much longer, James started mumbling quietly and squirming around which was a signal that someone was waking up, I frowned.

     He sat up and stretched, I wondered if he was as confused as I was when I awoke.  He looked around puzzled, probably wondering if he was still dreaming.  I watched him think for a bit, then, as if he read my mind and pinched his arm to see if it was a dream.  He cussed under his breath when he made that decision, causing me to laugh.  "Hate to break it to ya' Sleeping Beauty, this isn't a dream."  I figured I could make jokes now that we were "out of trouble." 

[James' POV]

    I stared at Thomas, who was grinning like an idiot.   I yawned and leaned back against the yellow rubber boarder of the floaty.  This was a mistake as it almost tipped over, under both of our weight on that side.  I quickly sprung over to the other side to balance it out.  We both let out a thankful sigh.  I grabbed a packet of Peanuts, "S-So this is w-what we're living o-off of from now o-on, huh?" I asked trying just the slightest to be funny.  He looked up and chuckled, "I guess so."

     I looked around at our surroundings.   Not a sign of human life in sight.  From what I could tell we were far far away from anything public.  "Some vacation.." I heard Thomas mumble "I-I second that.." I replied.  We looked up at each other for a couple seconds, then started to laugh.  "Well, I figure we'll be here for a while so you might as well tell me a bit about yourself,  Mr. Madison?" 

I pondered this for a while. "W-Well, I'm 20 years old a-and, I live in an apartment. I c-currently work at some c-crappy Starbucks. And, I g-get sick a lot.." I said at last. Mr. Optimistic is my middle name. He stared at me blankly "That's..Nice." He said quietly. "Well, aren't you going to ask m'wah?" I was suprised by his sudden change in character, "Uh, g-go right ahead, I suppose." 

[Thomas' POV]

I sat up and cleared my throat, "Well! For starters I'm 21 years old, I live in a large brick house, and I work at Apple. Electronics will in fact, take over the world." I declared "Is that s-so?" James replied and smirked at me, "Indeed it is, my friend." I replied. We both laughed at that, and continued having long conversations about our current life.

Naturally, one wouldn't open up to someone else they had just met this quickly. But, I'm not natural so this rule doesn't apply to me. I eventually told James that I was Bi. For no specific purpose, at all. He didn't seem to have a problem with that, and I wondered if he was too. James was almost a complete oppisite of me, I love the outdoors! He prefers inside. Cooking is one of my passions! He told me he once burned down his kicthen.

It was oddly attractive. Not that that means anything. Y'know, it's just one of those things..

[3rd Person POV]

That night, both young men slept the same way they had the night before, snuggled close. Was it for warmth? Or maybe somethings there that wasn't there before. Either way, while they were "keeping each other warm", they were headed towards an island. Not a populated island, no not at all. This island was completely unpopulated. Not a single human being in sight.

Thomas and James were all alone in the middle of the ocean. Could they possibly find their way back? If so, how?
