Camila PoV

"Stay still!" I said, Lauren and i both giggling.

I painted her toe nail carefully, with a glossy red. I had found it in my purse and thought it would be fun. The morning rays of light reflected on the polish, making it shine.

"I am still!" Lauren laughed, "It’s not my fault you are bad at painting nails. I guess you don’t have a steady hand".

"Lauren, i’m amazing, it’s obvious"

"Yeah, your amazing at painting my foot" Lauren said, gesturing towards her skin that was partly covered in polish.

"Ok, nobody’s perfect" I replied, trying to stay focused.

"Don’t go all Hannah Montana on me" She bit her lip and intently watched me.

I started singing Hannah Montana’s song.”Everybody make mistakes, everybody has those days”

"Oh god, make it stop!" We both laughed.

“Nobody’s perfect, you live and you learn it” I kept singing until she chucked the blanket at me.

"Camz"

"What? Don’t even try to act like you don’t like Hannah Montana". I said to her, painting another nail.

"You’re right. I do like her, she was like the definition of my childhood" Lauren smiled.

I finished painting her nails and stood up. “Attention Ladies and Gentlemen, i now show you the greatest painted nails ever!” I joked, standing up, lifting my arms out to the sides.

"Camila" Lauren said in between laughs, "You are honestly the weirdest person i know".

"Do you like weird people?"

"Love them". She smiled and started to stand up.

I ran over and pushed her lightly back down.

"You’re not standing up without my help" I said. Her cut probably hurt so bad.

"Camila, i’m not helpless" Lauren said, trying to stand back up.

"At least let me change the gauze" I grabbed the first aid kit and sat next to her. I unwrapped the old gauze, tossed them aside and put the new bandages on.

"Thanks" She smiled and tugged my arm, i leaned down and kiss her lips softly.

"No problem, baby boo" I helped her stand up.

"Baby boo? Could you have thought of a worse nickname" Lauren chuckled.

"Hey! It’s cute, ok?"

"Whatever you say Camz, whatever you say".

Lauren started walking around, with only a slight limp.

"Watch your toe nails! Aren’t they still wet with paint?" i asked.

"Nope, they dried pretty quickly. Must be the island air" She said.

"Yeah i guess so" I walked up and laced my fingers with hers.

Lauren PoV

Around a few hours later, Camila and me found ourselves sitting on the beach, staring out into the ocean. It had reached the hottest part of the afternoon.

Our spirits had gone down a bit, we were both hungry but too tired to fish. Our bodies were weak and i really started to feel it now, as the sun beat down on our slender bodies.

"This sucks" I heard Camila say, she was tracing hearts in the sand with her fingers.

"Yeah, i know. Can we talk about something, get our minds off of being so damn hungry" I said back.

"Talk about what?"

"I don’t know, school." I smiled to myself, "Is it bad that i kind of miss learning?"

Camila chuckled, “Yeah, i think the whole population would rather be on a deserted island than go to school”.

"But we are probably going to miss prom, one of the only things about school that i ever looked forward too" I said.

Prom had always been something i was excited for. The whole process of getting asked, dancing, and having one last time with your grade to have fun.

"Prom? Really?" Camila said, "Prom is just a dance. I don’t want to go anyway"

"That’s only something people who are scared they won’t get asked, say" I replied.

"Whatever"

"I just can’t believe i might miss it" I said back.

"We can have our own prom" Camila said, her face lit up and she stood up. "Your chariot awaits" Camila smiled.

I stood up and just shook my head, i couldn’t help but smile at Camila’s prom attempt.

"What chariot?" I asked.

"Get on my back" Camila responded.

Oh hell no. There was no way this girl could give me a piggy back ride. I looked at her face, and her waiting eyes. I guess i should give her a chance. I hopped up, and she carefully carried me. She made sure not to bump my cut on my leg as she walked towards the shelter.

"We have arrived" She said, letting me down. Camila walked to her purse and grabbed out her iphone. "The Dj is picking out a song, just give her a minute or so".

I smirked, i was so blessed to have this crazy, imaginative goofy girl in my life.

"How about some Ed Sheeran?" Camilas asked me.

"Sure" I responded. I heard Camila put on the song, Kiss Me by Ed Sheeran.

"It’s not the perfect song for dancing, but it should do" Camila said.

"Nothing is perfect" I responded. She just smiled and stuck out her hand.

"Would you join me in a dance?" Camila said formally.

"I’d love to" I walked up to her slowly and took her hand.

We started to slow dance, her head resting on my shoulder.

This feels like falling on love

Falling in love

We’re falling in love

We danced to the music, and i felt right. Holding her to my body, dancing like this felt right. I loved Camila so much. And even if this wasn’t the perfect prom, it felt perfect to me.

I was made to keep your body warm

But i’m cold as the wind blows so hold me in your arms

As i danced with Camila, i couldn’t believe it. Being stuck on an island was the drastic measure that had to be taken just for me to fall in love with this girl. I could of talked to her in school, but no, i just stayed with my group of friends and never said a word.

"What are you thinking about" Camila said.

"This prom, and how much it will suck if they don’t have food here" i joked.

She laughed lightly. “No really, what are you thinking about?”.

"You and me" I replied back, letting the song fill my ears.

"And?"

"I love you" I said, smiling.

"I love you too" Camila kissed my cheek lightly, then rested her head on my shoulder again.

The song ended, but this moment felt like it never would. Everything wasn’t perfect about our prom, but that’s what made it perfect.

Nobody can ever feel what we feel in this very moment.........
