Stranded

Hour Three - Renay

Hey guys, it's Emily here. Originally it was suppose to be Taylor writing, but we're all having some trouble finding time to write. We're all freshman here so it's a big transition. I hope you guys understand.

Here's the new chapter!

"Where the hell is this stupid house?" Gage groans.

We literally haven't even walked a half a mile. How is he complaining already I thought to myself.

"Don't worry, it's close." Makenzie tells him. I hope she's right I'm starving.

"Do you have any food?" Lauren asks me.

Right when I'm about to tell her no, my stomach growls. "I think I would have ate it all if I did." I tell her, "Sorry."

"It's okay, I'm gonna go see if I can steal some from Marie." She tells me while walking off.

I jog to Amber so I'm not walking by myself. She's on her phone checking something out.

Probably something with YouTube.

"So what's up-"

"FINALLY!" Lauren screams making me scream and jump.

While Amber and most of my classmates are laughing at me, I'm staring wide-eyed at a running Lauren.

"What the hell is she freaking out about." I mumble to myself.

I stand on my tiptoes (since I'm pretty short) so I can see what's up ahead.

That's when the house comes into view.

It was in the middle of a slight clearing, but we were still surrounded by trees.

There was one side that was clear since there was a small pond there. It was extravagant. (The picture at the beginning is what we're using, but there are gonna be a few tweeks)

From what I could see, we had ended up on the side of the house.

So Lauren ended running to the front.

"WHY WON'T IT OPEN!?" She screamed back at us.

I rolled my eyes at her. "Mrs. Ashter has the keys, do you not remember that conversation and why we went looking for her in the first place?" I yell back at her.

"She's probably just excited because there's a toilet somewhere in there." Caroline joked with her.

"Ha ha ha. Very funny." Lauren sassed while trying to open the door again.

"Shouldn't there be an extra key somewhere?" Amber asks.

"YES! There has to be a key! COME ON EVERYONE LOOK FOR A SPARE KEY!" Lauren commands everyone.

"Yes ma'am." I say and saluting her at the same time. Some of the girls snicker and then we're off searching for a key.

After searching for awhile we come up with nothing.

"Is Mrs. Ashter really that stupid not to have a spare key?" I ask.

"It's Mrs. Ashter what do you expect." Rachel laughs sarcastically.

"Why don't we go to the beach and have some fun?" Lucy suggest.

"Yes! God damn we literally haven't stopped walking all day." Nick groans.

"God doesn't need your damn, he can walk on water." Nick sasses him back.

We're all frozen staring at the two until I end up cracking up and everyone soon after following soot.

"That... was literally.. one of the best things.. you have ever said." I gasp in between my laughter.

After our little laughing fit Darrell speaks up. "So are we going to the beach?"

Me and Makenzie look at each other and at the same time shout "OR NAW?" And hysterically start laughing, or at least I do, since I'm in one of those giddy moods.

Everyone's giving me a weird look, but I could care less.

"So let's get going!" I say and start walking in a random direction.

"You do know there's a path right over there?" Riley says pointing in the direction completely opposite of where I was going.

"Yeah I totally knew that." I nervously say. "Well let's go!" I say in attempts to get the attention off my awkwardness.

But that doesn't last long since I start skipping down the path.

"She's so weird" I hear Riley comment.

"And I embrace it!" I scream back fist pumping the air.

And this ladies and gentlemen is why I am single.

Not long I'm surrounded by sand and the sound of waves crashing against the shore.

It was breath taking. Especially since I hadn't been paying attention to it before when we first arrived here.

"Wow.." I breathed.

I walked out a little and checked out my surroundings. Mainly it was just trees, sand, and ocean, but to my left I could see a small beach house.

I quickly ran over there to check it out.

There were surfboards, goggles, buckets, and pretty much everything that you could possibly think of to do on the beach.

While looking around I noticed two different doors. One with a sign saying 'ladies' the other 'men's'.

"Bathrooms!" I gasp excitedly. Can't wait to tell Lauren about those I thought to myself.

I walked outside right as the others were coming out onto the beach.

"Lauren! Guess what!" I screamed their way.

They all look my way, confused at first and them registering who was screaming towards them.

"What!"

"Guess!"

"No! Now what is it?"

"I found bathrooms!"

She squealed like she was fangirling and started coming my way.

"Where!?" She asks frantically.

I just point to the doors and she runs in. Laughing I walk outside and wait for her.

"Hey you guys." I scream over to the other kids.

"What?" Nick asks.

"I found some beach stuff in here if we want to get it out." I tell them all.

"Screw that. I just want to sit." Nick groans. Everyone starts walking to the shore to take a seat near the water.

"Better?" I ask Lauren once she comes back outside.

"Much."

We walk over and join the group sitting down in a circle, not having a care in the world.

Okay so this is a little over 900 words. It's freaking good enough.

Sorry if it's horrid. I don't really care right now I'm tired and need sleep.
