Marooned

Chapter Eleven

"Why did you do it?" I asked Josh to break the silence. It's been ten days since I saw him making out with Ceanna.

"Hm?" He replied, turning his head towards me.

I stood up, clearly pissed off that he was acting like he didn't know what I was talking about.

He stood up as well so he was right in front of the water.

"Why did you make out with Ceanna?"

Josh stepped back, surprised that I was just bringing this up now.

He had no words.

I stared at him.

"What?" He finally asked.

"Shut up, Josh, I saw you two together almost a week ago. Why did you do it? Am I not good enough for you?" I half-yelled.

"I- I'm so sorry. If you were watching you would know I stopped it. I walked away!"

I shook my head. "Yeah. Yeah, I saw you walk away. That doesn't change the fact that you did it!"

"Crystal.. Crystal, I love you! I love you and only you!"

I tried to hide a smile. Did he actually just say that? I've been waiting for so long and he actually-

"What's going on?" Ceanna skipped over, interrupting my thoughts.

"I HATE YOU!" I screamed so loud that my dad and Nick ran over to see if I got hurt or something.

"I HATE YOU SO MUCH!" I said and just then Ceanna flew back and hit the sand. Hard. She flew as if a bomb just blew up right in her face.

I stared at her. What the hell just happened.

"You're crazy," she whispered.

"I- I don't know- was that-?" I stammered.

Tears started to fill my eyes. Did I do that to her? How did that happen?

Everyone stared at me in silence.

"WHAT?" I screamed and the same thing happened. To all of them. They flew back, hitting the ground with great force.

I fell to my knees and started to sob, loudly.

"What the hell did you do to make her pissed off, Ceanna?" My dad yelled but not as loud as me.

Ceanna started to softly cry, "I made out with Josh," she said, crying harder.

My dad shook his head.

All I could think about is how they all flew back when I screamed.

I then ran away. Across the island, as far as I could get away from them, hoping to never come back.
