Chapter 10: Shattered

I didn't move from my spot. I couldn't move from my spot. I felt like my heart shattered into a million pieces. Shawn and I were such great friends, and I guess I thought of him in a more of a liking way. He actually cared about me instead of others back home.

Ugh, why do I even feel this way for him? I should've had it coming. I should've never let him get too close to me, but it was too late. I let my emotions get the better of me. And Jasmine?! I never knew they liked each other. What if Shawn was just using me to get to Jasmine since we were friends? It makes perfect sense!

I cried harder into my knees as the wind blew stronger and everything was rapidly changing around me. I was so angry! But, I was mostly upset the way Jasmine kissed him, and he was totally into it! Why did I let this happen to myself?

Then, I got back up to my feet. I began to walk as only anger and sorrow was in my mind. I didn't know where I was walking, as long as it some place but here. I struggled through the harsh wind and everything changing around me. I didn't care. This island was already crazy as it is. I just wanted to go home.

That was when a giant spike came from the ground and more came around and surrounded me. They were getting bigger and bigger. Then, I felt like I was being lifted from the ground and so I looked to see a spike was under me growing. I slipped and the spike caught me by the back of my shirt as I heard it rip. I gasped when I looked down. I was up really high. Like, scary high.

I let out a blood curdling scream as I didn't want to fall. If I fell, I would definitely die by this distance. Then, I heard my shirt start to rip. What?! No! This is the only shirt I'm wearing! And then, my shirt gave out and I was falling from the sky. I screamed once again as I started to fall. I tightened my eyes shut as I waited for the impact to hit me and then kill me.

I felt nothing but the arms of a warm embrace around me. I opened my eyes to see Shawn. I glared and got myself away from him.

"Ryan, you almost died!" Shawn shouted.

"Yep," I said. "Now, good bye. Just leave me alone."

"No, I won't!" He shouted. Huh? I turned back towards him to see that he had stomped the ground and was glaring angrily at me.

"You don't get it, do you?" He asked.

"Get what? That the island is acting strange? Yeah, I noticed." I said.

"No, you don't. The island is a self destruct and we have less than an hour to stop it. Now, I'm not going to leave you here to die." Shawn said. What? Self destruct? Ugh, Chris was up to this.

"You don't care about me at all! You just care about Jasmine! You used me just to get to her and I know you did!" I shouted.

"Yea, I do care about you. And I care about you more than my zombie obsession! Now, you're going to come with me so we can stop this thing together." Shawn said.

"No, no more of it!Just go back to Jasmine and kiss your way out of this! I'm better off dead than alive either way! Go and save her. She needs you. . . You deserve her, not me." I said. I walked off as tears weld up in my eyes. No, I'm not going to cry. Don't cry. Don't you cry.

But it was too late as tears fled down my cheeks. I went by a rock and sat against it. I pulled my knees up to my chest and cried harder into them. I felt a hand on my knee and I didn't bother yelling at him anymore. I was just too tired to do so.

"Ryan. . . I need to tell you something, and please just hear me out when I say this. I like you. A lot. But please, you can't just let yourself die out here. Please, I'll explain everything if you just listen to me. I don't have feelings for Jasmine. I have them for you. I don't know what happened back there, but I felt nothing of her." Shawn said.
