I watched the strange boy drinking the river water desperately. I had climbed on a crooked branch atop a leafy tree to look at him. He is directly under the branch I'm on. I observed his unusual features, his long dark hair was pulled back in a messy way atop his head and a strong jawline like the boys in the village. But his skin is light, unlike our dark skins. I peered closer over the branch to see if I can see his eyes. Then I heard it a 'crack' from the branch I'm on. Shit! Then a louder one. The boy looked up. Two eyes laced with panic met a pair of surprised ones. Deep emerald eyes like the forest on the island. Then the branch succumbed to gravity and well I fell. It's summer and Jake Aldridge's parents invite him to their new private island, much to his dislike... Little did he know he would meet a mysterious girl on their island.... Which he tries to find again... But there is more... the main reason he was invited on the island.... Will he ever find her back? Will he agree with the reason he was invited? Well there is only one way to know for sure, it is time to look beyond the ferns... .... Under editing cover by @sixty6ix #staysafe

He lit his cigarette, I lit nothing. He drank alcohol, I drank water. He smirked, I smiled. He didn't love me, I didn't love him. He and I together wouldn't last a day. And then the game started...

When you fall in love with me between that time span, I win. If in any way you were to win I'll give up all the alcohol, cigarettes, and player ways."

[Edited Version ● Alternate Ending] "Colin? I feel so awful lying to you so I have to tell you what happened..today," Frankie blurted out, nervously cracking her knuckles as she stared at her boyfriend from one side of the living room. Colin's bright blue eyes danced. "What is it, sweetheart?" "I...I bumped into my ex-husband in the elevator today." "And?" Frankie exhaled. "And we had sex. In the elevator." There was an interminable silence before Colin smiled. "We'll work through this, honey. Don't worry." "Work through this?" she spluttered in disbelief. "How? How can we, when all I want is for him to do it again? And again, and again, and again, and..." She trailed off, sighing.
