LOST

Chapter 44

Ella's POV

I rolled my eyes, trying to act natural even though, I was totally nervous where I stood.

“ Damien that's enough, that's kiss was a mistake and you know it , I still haven't forgiven you and right now I don't think I would," I let out as I left him and walked away.

“ Ella wait up," I heard him say, but I quicken my steps even more.

“ Ella Please... okay I'm sorry for kissing you, it would be hard but , I would try not to kiss you again," Damien said as he ran after me.

Damien continued to chase after me, being his funny self as always, buy of course I didn't tell him that.

We continued on our journey to the other side all the while still trying to avoid the WIC company from capturing us again.

Day turns into night, and night into day , and we were still on the path leading to the other side.

of course Damien knew just what to do when it came to hiding from the WIC company

And just like that we successfully got to the other side

I was so happy to here, looking around with so much joy in my eyes.

I couldn't believe that I was finally here, away from the evils of the island

The other side was beautiful, the air felt cleaner and fresher here, and for the first time, I could see birds flying in the sky.

Here felt like heaven compared to the hell that was the island.

” You love it here don't you," Damien voice brought be back from the beautiful view that was here.

“ What is there not to like about this place, it is beautiful," I smiled.

“ Yeah the mystic of the island and the creatures within couldn't get inside here, and no one still could answer why.

Even the WIC company is still surprised by the level of growth here." Damien smiled and said.

“So are we safe here now," I asked.

“ Yes for now, the WIC company's jurisdiction doesn't get here, they don't have cameras watching our every move here.

But let's not get comfortable because I wouldn't put anything passed Arthur , he is so desperate to see me died and you back in his custody that he would do anything necessary to have his way," Damien let out.

“ So what are we going to do," I asked.

“ Well first and most importantly, we find a boat that could get us out of here, it was supposed to be here but I can't see it any where.' Damien let out and I nodded.

“ Okay let find a boat, because I am so over this place and I really want to go home," I said and Damien smiled.

“ Don't worry I would get you out of here, I promise," Damien said and for the first time since I knew the truth about Damien's true identity.

“I smiled.

We went on to look for the boat, searching all day and soon the night came.

“ We should rest for night," Damien suggested.

“But the boat ," I tried to protest.

“it can wait , it's not like we can see anything now, it's already dark," Damien let out and I breathed out heavily knowing he was right.

Within minutes, Damien built us a tent and trust me I was amazed.

“ I would get us something to eat, thank goodness there are alot of options here," he smiled and left.

Soon he came back with two big fishes in his hands and i was shocked beyond words.

“ How is that even possible, how did you get those," I asked in surprise.

“ There is life everywhere, Ella, even fishes are in the water," Damien smiled.

” Wow okay... but the question is can you prepare them," I asked and Damien rolled his eyes.

“ Why don't you, watch the master at work," he smirked.

“ I have been cooking for years , people call me the chef," he said and I just couldn't help but laugh.

“ The chief..." I laughed even harder.

“ Okay chef, do your thing," I smiled and immediately Damien made a fire and started prepping the fish.

Soon he brought his finished recipe for me have a taste.

“ Here have a taste , " he handed me the fish.

“ Taking a bite of it my eyes shone in surprise by how good it tasted, but I immediately masked my reaction so he wouldn't know it was good.

“ So what do you think," Damien asked and I shook my head.

“ It's okay, you could have done better," I let out and Damien rolled his eyes.

“ Yeah right that is s lie, it is in your eyes, you love it," Damien laughed.

“Fine it is good," I let out smiling and the joy on Damien's face was so much that it made me laugh as well

When we were done eating, we laid down just looking at the stars in the sky.

“ They are beautiful," I whispered.

“ Yeah but not as beautiful as you," He replied turning to look at me.

“ I couldn't summon up the courage to look at him, but I knew my face was already red as tomato. Damien words always gets me this way.

“ You know I wish, Alex could have been here to see the beauty of this place," I murmured out as my heart suddenly became heavy as I remembered my best friend.

“ I know she is happy that you have finally gotten here, and you would be going back home soon," Damien said.

“Yeah i know, Alex was special," I said tears ran down my eyes.

I didn't even know when, Damien hand came to the corner of my face, wiping off the tears from my eyes.

“ I hate seeing tears in your eyes," he whispered as he did let any tear fall from my eyes.

I didn't know what came over me, but I that moment, I needed all the comfort I could get , so I pulled Damien close as I laid on his chest.

Damien wrapped his arms around me without a second thought as he rubbed circles around my back.

“ Alex loved you, do you forget that," he let out as his voice was begin muffled by my hair.

“ Intoxicated by the rhythmic beats of his heart, I didn't know when I drifted off to sleep, and by the time I woke up, it was already morning.

I slowly removed myself from Damien's arms carefully, so as not to wake him up, because he looked so peaceful as he slept.

I decided to walk around the place, taken in the beauty it has to offer.

Soon I saw something that cut my attention, something was there it was covered in an old cloth, so I decided to take a look.

Removing the cloth, what I saw brought an instant smile to my face.

“it was an old boat." I squealed happily.

“I need to tell Damien," I said to myself with so much joy as I ran to go and get him .
