"Are you sure you're ok?" Lauren asks again as she rests her arms on the deck

"Yeah, it'll be fine" I say

"It's just... I've seen him do shit like that to you before" she says

"So you're watching me too?" I laugh

"Just an observation" she smiles

"..He's only that way when he's drunk. Tomorrow he'll apologize and everything will go back to normal" I say

"Uh... Why tf are you friends with him?" She asks turning towards me

"I don't know... Kris is friends with him and she's my best friend so" I shrug

"That doesn't mean you have to be complicit... Does she know?" She asks

"She's seen him try to kiss me a couple of times but, I've always played it off by laughing... It'll just complicate things" I say

"You're friends a sexual assaulter, he's the one complicating things" She says

"...You know it's really none of your business" I say annoyed

"That's fair but, what he's doing is hurting you" she says

"I'm fine like I said 50 times already. Why don't you go hang out with your bitchy friends and leave me alone" I say

"Oh so now I'm a bitch for giving a fuck?" She says

"Your a bitch for how you treat Kris, you're a nosy bitch for bothering me!" I say

"Well sorry I didn't know trying to console you after your friend just GROPED you was bothering!" She says

"Can you just leave?!" I say

"...Whatever" She says walks away

And that's when it happened.

*Boom* the boat screams as we it hit something and start to tilt

"Lauren!" I yell reaching my hand out to her

I was pressed against the open railing about to fall into the ocean and I could see her face pinned against the wall that was once to the right of me but now, it was above me, she however was protected from falling.

"Help me!" I yell out begging for her hand

Are eyes meet and with tears forming she turns her head to the other side of the wall and away from me. I realized then that she wasn't going to help me.

"Help!" I yell

"Everybody remain calm!" I hear Marco yell, "The police are on their way!"

"Flip the fucking boat back!" Someone yells

"I'm falling!" Someone else yells

"We're trying!" Marco yells

"I'm gonna drop her!" I hear

"Lauren please!" I plead. "Oh my God" I say noticing the water crawl up my body

"Help!" I say once more

But then the boat started to balance again.

"Oh thank God!" I say standing up from the railing

"Y/n" Lauren says as she comes from behind the wall

"Fuck you." I say as I start to walk away but then, the boat tilted again only this time, I didn't have a railing to protect me and she didn't have a wall.

"Ahhh!" I scream as my body slams into the water

"No!" Lauren screams following me into the water

I couldn't see a thing. It was dark and cold, peaceful almost.

"Hey!" I hear muffled as everything goes quiet

••••••

"Where am I?" I say as I wake up

"You are on a life raft in the middle of the Caribbean" Lauren says sitting up

"What?" I say squinting my eyes and looking up to see the sun

"It's morning?" I say

"Yep" She says laying back down

"Lauren?" I ask

"Yeah" She says

"...What the fuck happened?" I say

"Well, those idiots on that boat hit a tree or some shit and the boat tipped, then, it un-tipped then, tipped again. Thats when both you an me were tossed overboard" she says with a sarcastic tune

"... a tree in the middle of the ocean... wait why are we on a life raft..." I say

"Because the DEAF BITCHES couldn't hear me yelling for help" she says

"How'd you get a life raft?" I ask

"I pulled it out when the boat first tipped and I thought you were gonna fall" She says

"...Oh you mean when you were gonna let me fall?!" I say

"I don't have time for this" she says closing her eyes

"Bitch" I say under my breath. "Why are we still here, why didn't you swim after them?" I ask

"This is why" she says raising her ankle

"Eww" I say noticing the obvious color change

"Yeah" She says. "So I decided to just wait for the cops to comes"

"So they called the cops?" I say

"...Marcos said he did when the boat tipped" she says

"Well... where are they?" I ask

"I don't know, I took a nap a few hours ago so-" she starts to say

"You what?!" I say

"I took a nap..." she says. "Oh shit..."

"Yeah! Oh shit is right!" I yell

"Yeah! Oh shit is right!" I yell
