As I sat there, like a rain beaten lost puppy, so many thoughts ran through my head...
What would I do now?
How do I survive? I don't even remember anything or anyone so I don't know if there's anything to go back to...
Is there anyone looking for me? Does anyone even know am missing?
Would I ever remember?
Would this be my life now or would I be saved?
All this question without answers prompts my tears to start falling again...
"Here, take this" I heard Eric say, I raised my eyes to see him handing me his handkerchief...
I just stared at it without saying a word...
"It's for your face"
I reached for the handkerchief, collected it, and blow my nose into it.
Eric made a disgusted face, then turned to leave.
"Thank you," I said
As if that was all he needed to hear he came back and stood awkwardly.....
"Are you okay? You looked terrified in your sleep, that's why I woke you up, maybe I shouldn't have" he said slowly...
I looked at him not saying anything.
"Am sorry" he said and left the cave...
I sat there like a hopeless person, thinking about everything and nothing at the same time...
My Tummy took the exact moment Eric walked back in to growl...
Uhh way to say you're hungry Keera
Eric just smiled not that I could see him though.
I just felt it in his voice when he said here and set a plate with several fresh fruits in front of me...
I raised my eyes to look at him and that's when I saw his eyes...
They were the most captivating aqua blue eyes that I've never seen or I at least thought so since I couldn't remember.....
I just stared at his eyes like a Bambi caught in a headlight...
They were so mesmerizing, and captivating, that I couldn't avert my gaze.
He was also staring at me with an emotion that I couldn't decipher...
I snapped out of it, mentally smacking my head...
"Uhm thanks for the fruit," I said finally averting my eyes and all he said was
"Go freshen up, you like you've been hit by a dragon"
Like seriously, is he for real? are dragons even real?
Not minding his statement, I reached for the fruit plate and started to eat...
You'd think I wouldn't have an appetite to eat after crying so much right?
Well, I do and it seems no matter what mood I am in, my apatite wouldn't diminish not even a little I think...
After finishing the whole plate of fruits, Eric walked back into the cave.
I looked at him to say thanks for the fruits and that was when I took in his facial features...
His face was very handsome, with defined jawlines and chiseled cheekbones, his eyebrows were perfect like it's been carved which was very unlikely...
His beards were neatly trimmed, but he still had facial hair that lined his jawlines and side of his face. Eric is handsome in every way...
His hair was jet black and looked like he ran his hands through it a few times, making it have a messy out of bed look.
It's the first time I saw him without his hood on and he looked breathtaking...
Well not literally
I quickly averted my eyes to avoid being caught which was too late because our eyes met.
Clearing my throat I got up to go freshen up, knowing that I looked horrible after my most dramatic outbreak of tears a few moments ago.
I can already imagine my eyes red, face puffy, and nose as red as a tomato.
I walked past Eric, avoiding eye contact while telling him that am going to go freshen up since it's already close to noon I think because the sun that was peeking into the cave from its entrance was a bit warm.
I went towards the direction of where I took a bath yesterday in the cave, hoping the water was still warm and calming as it had been.
I stripped off my clothes and entered the water while taking my panties off inside the water...
I washed it and squeezed out all of the water from it before drying it on a small rock close to the water...
The thought of putting it back on without being washed made me feel gross.
After taking a long bath I looked to see if Eric was anywhere within eyes sight before coming out of the water.
Since I took my time in the water my panties were a bit dried, I grabbed it quickly putting it on before realizing that I couldn't put my dirty clothes back on...
I walked slowly to where I saw Eric's sweater hanging yesterday and was about to grab it when I heard Eric say
"Why are you walking around naked."
"Oh my God," I said while jumping I think am gonna die of a heart attack on this island...
I quickly put on the sweater, before turning around to face him.
"Do you like find it amusing to torment me," I asked him with a grim expression on my face, he just ignored me and said
"Why are you wearing my clothes..."
Oh, these I said gesturing to the sweater I was wearing...
"Uhm can I borrow it for a while? mine are dirty and I couldn't put them back on."
"You are already wearing them, and you are asking me if you could borrow them?"
He asked while shaking his head like he was dealing with a toddler.
"What if I say no you can't, then what? "
Then I would just continue wearing it anyway I told him, then proceeded to put on my snickers which is the one thing am thankful for about what I was wearing while I appeared here.
After putting on my snickers, I got up and looked at Eric, and he just said
"Come with me, unless you want to remain here alone"
And left the cave with me following closely behind him...
