I peek outside, It's already pouring so fast and heavy! It's really windy too! the water from the mountain are cascading down so fast!... Is there a storm?! why am I not updated?! oh my god its so cold now...

I screech when there's a loud boom! I realized that it's a thunder! I'm panicking! I'm about to turn around, when I'm suddenly wrapped in a blanket.

"It's alright, bunny. I'm here, don't be scared." He hug me so tight... it's so warm and soothing, I love the feeling.

Another loud thunder filled the whole area so I flinch.

"Stop showing out of nowhere, you're creeping me out." I said.

"Let's warm the place, you're getting cold." He insist.

Brennan carried me in bridal style towards the nearby fire and sat me down. I continue to look at him...he looks like he's looking for something and...

"oh... I see. You already eat the chocolate?" He ask.

"No... it's still here." I grab it out of my pocket as well as my phone. I hand the chocolate to him and he grab it. He starts munching it while I look at my phone.

After a minute..."Eat" He said as he hands me the chocolate so I eat too.

"It's already 2:30 Pm... that's why I'm hungry. My phone will shut down soon... May I borrow your phone?" I hesitantly ask him. I can't believe I'm asking help from him.

"I didn't bring it with me...sorry"

I sigh...How am I gonna contact ethan or anybody!?... I wish they're finding a way to locate us...and I wish the storm will pass soon. The wind and rain are too much, I'm just grateful that we have a temporary shelter... and I'm also thankful that I have somebody with me at least I'm not alone...although it's awkward that he's my companion out of all of the possible human being in this planet that might be with me... God, why him?!

and seriously... you're going on a hike, without any phones with you? seriously brennan? I think he have it with him. but he's too arrogant to lend it to me... OR... He's just being an asshole and wants me to suffer... OR... He doesn't want anybody to locate us because he wants to spend time with me? Either way I don't want to know because it will seriously piss me off... plus this weather doesn't help at all.

I stare at him, I'm distracted by a light..no.. I think it's a reflection. Honestly I can't figure it out...wait!...

I narrow my eyes to his hands. He opens it wide as he let the heat from the fire radiates through his hands. It turn out that it's a ring...

oh my...

Is that the ring he acquired at the auction?...

Is he engaged? or married already? He wears the ring on his 4th finger so...

oh my god! yany! Stop it! Stop assuming things! and why should you care about him?!

I continuously stare at the ring with wide eyes, I didn't notice that he's also looking at me.

I look away. It's too awkward.

I pretend that the rain is so interesting as I look at it intently, but the truth is I just want to get away with this situation.

My head hurts...

"Brennan please... look at me."
