What Happens in the Isle, Stays in the Isle

chapter five

"There you guys are" a voice woke us up. I was still in Jays arms holding on to dear life. I opened up my eyes to see Evie and Ben looking at us. Oh god. 

"Oh ya we just kinda passed out." I laughed. Jay kissed my head and got up grabbing his jacket. "Hey M. You know whenever you need to talk I'm a couple rooms away." He said.  I smiled and nodded as he left.

Ben sat beside me smiling. "So dinner tonight. You And me." He said. I put on a fake smile and nodded. "Of course. Pick me up at eight." I said kissing his cheek. He got up and said goodbye to Evie as he left.

Evie sat beside me and started talking about my clothing choice. I was so out of it before I knew it I was standing up and she was trying to undress me to put on different clothes. I stopped her right away. "Evie I gotta go for a walk. Just lay what you want me to wear on the bed." I said wrapping my jacket around me and running off.

Flash back

I had no idea what to wear. Oh god. Evie would of helped me if she was here. I looked at all my clothing and finally decided on black jeans a ripped tank top and a long purple trench coat. I put on my black leather boots and called it a night. I let my hair down. It was messy but a sexy messy I would say.

I heard him knock on the door. The butterflies in my stomach started. "Come in." I shouted as i fixed my hair for the 100th time. 

When he walked up the stairs he was in jeans and a t shirt with a leather jacket on. I just smiled at him. "You look handsome." I said to him. He brought me hand to his lips and kissed it as he smirked. "As do you. Now come on. Let go." He said putting out his arm for me.

I grabbed it of course As  he led me down the stairs.

As soon as I saw the sign I knew  where we were going. The docks. You could smell the salt water from down the street. The docks were Uma and his. This was his turf. 

"Of course you took me here." I blushed looking down at my feet. He smiled,   "Come on. Let's go." He said as I looked down. There was a little  boat. We wont be able to go that far from the Isle. Unfortunately  the barrier forbade us 

He got in first and then held out his hand to help me down onto the boat.  It was nice and different. I've never really been on a boat ride. So this was a first for me. 

He started to row out a little bit but just enough that we were out of everyone's way. It was just us and the water, with the garbage island behind us.

He pulled out a basket with just a couple of beers and an couple of apples.  "Sorry, didn't have a lot to go by at the moment." he smiled. I opened the beer and took a sip and then took a bite of the apple. "This is perfect for me." I said.

"So what did they do to you over there?" he asked me I shrugged. "Taught me manners, how to be polit. The worst part of it was how happy everyone was. God they were all smiling." I told him. "Come on was it that bad?" He asked me. I took out my phone and showed him picture of me the dresses and skirts. "I wasn't allowed to wear pants without Bens and his familys permission. I always had to be in dresses and skirts" I told him. He started laughing, but I could tell he was annoyed with that. "But you do look amazing in dress, I do have to say." 

I started to blush hard.  "don't worry I kept one or two for emergency's." I told him. He grabbed my hand. "I wouldn't want you to be anyone but you. Leather pants and all." He said. He put his hand under my chin and brought his lips to mine.

Flash back over.

I snuck outside into the teachers garden and hide under the tree. I started to cry. I was starving, and tired.

It was hours later when a teacher picked me up and brought me to the school nurse. "Mal, you were found passed out in your own puke. What is going on?" She said. That's when I told her that I haven't been sleeping or eating. She then took some blood and ran some tests. 

"Mal, I'm giving you some iron and proteins pills so that should start up the hunger again, but if it doesn't work in a week come see me. I'm worried you are starting to develop an eating disorder."

That was a wake up call to me, but I felt like there was nothing I could do.
