Wake Up The Relentless Ocean

Chapter 10

Noah was still rumbling when I got back to the island, so I decided to hit him with water. Using the sapphire's powers I make a massive wave crash over Noah and that shuts him right up.

"HEY! What was that for?!" he screams at me.

"You've been rambling for 15 minutes I couldn't take it anymore," I say to him as he gets up to find a towel. "And what's the problem you knew where I was."

"The problem is that we don't know what's on this island with us, so you could've gotten hurt!" He yells at me acting concerned. Now that Atlas told me about what he's doing, I can see a hint of disappointment in his expression.

"Sorry. I didn't mean to worry you," I say looking at the ground. I feel him put his arm around my waist and I fight the urge to pull away.

"It's ok just don't do it again," he says as he grabs my chin and makes me look at him. He gives me a sweet smile, I don't like it.

"Ok," is all I say. I wish I knew what he was thinking, that would make things a lot easier.

"How did she come back?! The blast from the magic protecting the house should have killed her. Now I'll have to find a different way to get the sapphire." Noah then lets go of me and continues to look for a towel.

"I'm gonna get some food do you want anything?" I ask. He just shakes his head, so I then walk over to where the food was.

"Did I just read his mind?! No, that couldn't have happened, right? I'll just ask dad next time I see him." I then grab a peach from one of the food bags and begin eating it. Because if I did just read Noah's mind then I can't let him find out I know what he's trying to do. As I turn around I bump into Noah and fall to the ground, I quickly stand up and brush the sand off of me.

"I'm so sorry Aqua I didn't mean to knock you down."

"Don't worry about it, I'm ok."

"You sure?"

"I'm sure. Um, do you need something?"

"Oh, I was just going to say we should find somewhere to sleep because it's starting to get dark." I look up at the sky and see the sun setting.

"Ok, do you have any ideas?"

"Well, I was thinking we could go just off the beach and set up a tent if that's ok?"

"That sounds good, you go find a spot while I get the tent."

'"K" Noah then turns around and heads inland a little way. That was close if he heard me who knows what would have happened. I begin to look for a tent. When I find it I hear Noah yelling that he found a good spot for the tent, so I grab it and head over to him. We quickly set up the tent, then go find sleeping bags and put them in the tent. When we finish I turn around to go get food before I go to sleep I see a beautiful sunset.

"This is the best sunset ever," I say in awe. Once I get over how pretty the sunset is I go and get some fruits and vegetables. I hand some of the food to Noah then begin eating. As I'm eating I feel someone looking at me, I slowly look around me and see Noah staring at me and not in a good way. He is looking at me with a disgusted/angry look.

"So, if I'm reading this right he does not want me around, I mean with how he's looking at me now and after I read his mind (or at least I think I read his mind). Does that mean he thought the magic barrier was going to kill me?! I need to tell dad what has happened, but how will I get there without Noah knowing where I am, and so he won't follow me? Hmmm... I got it!"
