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 saidAs 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 KeeraEric 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 literallyI 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...We kept walking non-stop for what felt like ages, with me asking for the millionth time where we were going and Eric ignoring me.Are we there yet? I asked again earning myself a glare from Eric"We get there when we get there so please just stop asking already and follow quietly for once" Eric said visibly frustrated with my constant prodding.We walked for a while more in eery silence none of us saying anything to the other.When I opened my mouth to say something again Eric just glared at me with a grim expression on his face before I could even get the words out...I humphed and walked ahead while muttering to myself how he wouldn't even let me talk.I walked faster for a while before realizing I don't even know where am going...I stopped abruptly causing Eric to crash into me, knocking me off my feet..."Oohhh,"I shriekedd closing my eyes and awaiting my body to make an impact with the ground but it never did.It's like I was hanging in the air or rather someone was holding me,
After Eric disappeared, I went to the spot where I took my bath and tried to wash the tangled mess on my head, but that merely turned out to be a complete disaster..."I don't think I've ever done this myself before," I said out loud..."I mean if I had, even if my memory was lost my body should at least be able to do what it does before right?" I asked no one in particular as I continued to struggle with my poor hair...I think there's a saying that goes...that body has memories or am I only mixing things up as I've lost part of my memories I thought to myself helplessly, and I continued to battle with my hair.I was still battling with my hair when I heard footsteps, I knew it was Eric even though I didn't look up.After a few struggles and unsatisfied messy hair later, I decided I had done enough for today. At least all I had to do now was rinse off the shampoo from my tangled hair...The question is how do I do that without getting my clothes wet.My eyes are closed, but I assumed
We sat silently, watching the blaze of the fire as it grows up to meet the stick on top of it, Eric had started the fire a while ago with the woods we had picked up...Eric watched the fire silently as it began to die down, before getting up to bring something he had kept wrapped up in a foil paper.I watched with undivided interest as Eric unwraps the thing from inside the foil and it appears to be some leftover meat he had kept aside for dinner. Eric then fixed the meat over the fire for warming. He must have gone hunting before I got here, I thought to myself. I looked at the meat, and It looked like some kind of big bird or something it had been cut already so I couldn't fully tell what kind of animal it was..."How long have you been here for Eric?" I asked breaking the ice like silence.Eric was silent for a while, and I was beginning to think he wasn't going to answer, but then he did."I've not been here long enough to have gone crazy or long enough to want to go back home." E
Eric's POVI woke up early, not because I was unable to sleep but because I was an early morning person.I looked to the other side and keera was lying down on the bed still asleep, she slept peacefully like an angel.I guess she wasn't having a bad dream like yesterday. She looked so cute pouting while asleep.I stood up from my bed and adjusted the blanket over her body, I then went to the spot where I take my bath and removed my clothes then got into the water. ..My mind unintentionally drifted to the first time I saw her. I had just returned from picking up a few fruits that would last me a few days. Upon entering the cave I heard movement in the water.I was confused at first because I knew fishes could not live in that particular water because of its temperature, so I thought maybe an animal or something had fallen in there, so I dropped the bag of fruits and went to check what was going on.When I reached I saw what I least expected a girl... she was floating on the water with
Keera's POVI sat By the waterfalls silently, the previous event replaying in my head for the umpteenth time more, before I got uncontrollably bored, I later concluded that I could not change what had happened.So I stood up, not wanting to go back to the cave just yet, so I decided to play around for a while, before going back in. Hopefully, Eric's gone from the cave by then, as I don't think I'm ready to face him yet.I went to the field of lilies and picked up one, apologizing to the poor flower for plucking it, I then proceeded to put it in my hair after using my hands to comb through it.My hair was so much better than the tangled mess it was yesterday, as it cascaded down my back in form of messy beachy waves, so I'm sure the flower doesn't look too out of place.I looked up at the sky using my right hand to shield my eyes from the sun, and the sky was a pretty shade of blue and at that moment, I forgot all about my embarrassment and all I felt was pure happiness.My happy state
Keera's POVWhen I went back onto the cave, I went straight to the bath tub after picking up clothes for changing, I then stripped off my dirty ones, and discarded them on the floor before proceeding to take the long-overdue bath...After taking my bath I put on one of the sweatshirts and one of the boxers Eric's brought for me, while wondering why he had given them to me.I'm sure they were Eric's boxers though they looked like they were new, and I don't think he's ever worn them... I thought involuntarily as I checked the clothes...The sweat shirt was a little too big and I had to fold it's arms a little. But the boxers on the other hand was not big at all because it hugged my curves perfectly, almost like a second skin but the sweat shirt was long enough to cover it...I then proceeded to put on my snickers, before going back into the main cave, Eric was not there just as I hadn't expected him to be...I decided to sit down and try to remember my past... I mean I'm not sure it wor
Eric's POV,I was laughing so hard at keera's bewildered expression when I said, she'd probably cost a few million dollars if I decided to sell her...She must have thought that I was serious because the look on her face matched that of fear...I wanted to play along, make her think I was really serious but I just couldn't stop myself from laughing.Ever since keera got here, I've laughed more than I ever did my entire life and for some odd reason am glad I told her to come back to the cave... I was bent over while laughing, so I didn't see keera getting up from the rock where she was sitting.The Next thing I know is that I was falling, I grabbed onto the only thing I could reach, which happens to be keera's hand to stop myself from falling, which of course was a frail attempt considering my built body, and keera's small one...So before I knew it we were both on the ground.Oh, well I was on the ground, keera was sprawled on top of me...I groaned when my body made an impact with t
Eric's POVNow, I really regret suggesting to play this game, as I stood there in just my boxers...Okay, my regrets were not because I was standing in just my boxers, my regrets were because Keera also stood a few meters away in just the boxers I brought her and her pale blue almost transparent Lacey bra...A part of me knew nothing good was gonna come out of playing *strip or dare.A few minutes earlier"Yes, yes what's the game, and what are the rules?Keera said while bobbing her head like some 3-year-old...After racking my brain for a few minutes, keera continued to stare at me like a 3-year-old waiting to see a magic trick, I finally came up with the idea of playing strip or dare..." Okay...what are the rules," keerah asked excitedly."Well basically I dare you to do something, and you pick either to do the dare or strip. No cheating, plus you can't dare someone to take off their clothes or mimic a person's dare," I explained and she appeared to think of it for a while, before
