Third person POV

Roxanne and Xavion walked through the bushes they were to collect woods for to night's camp fire .

"There that looks promising"Roxanne said the collected some woods and put it in the basket and took it back.

"we should take some dry leaves they also help"Roxanne said

"How'd you know"He said furrowing his eyebrows.

"I'm from Country Q Xavion I go camping almost every month"She said

"Wow "He said .

"Yeah and..."Roxanne stumbled on a root and she fell.

"Ow "She winced in pain

"Roxanne are you okay"He said

"I'm fine "She said as she stood up but instead of walking she leaped.

"Your leg is bruised"He said and bent down . Roxanne looked up and saw the gigantic tree in front of them.

"Xavion"She said he looked up and saw the tree.

"Woah "Xavion said as he smiled he brought out his phone and took pictures of it.

"We'll make research on it and make our report"He said.

Roxanne tried putting her leg down but she couldn't.

"Come on let me help you "He said

"Mount on my back, let me carry you "He said.

"No Xavion "She said.

"Come on you obviously can't walk like that "He said .

"Roxie don't be shy "He said

"Who told you that"She said and mounted his back . Xavion left the basket and followed the land marks back to the camp site.

"Xavion and Roxanne are a bit late "Carly said

"I hope they both get lost '?"Sydney said

"Syd why would you say such a thing"Isla said

"You just shut it "Sydney said.

"Ok everyone gather around"Mr peterson said

"Ok we're leaving tomorrow I hope you know that "He said

"Finally "Sydney said

"I know you're all happy about it but I hope you all have picked something to write on in the forest"He said.

"Yes mister Peterson"They chorused.

"Ok you can all get back to what ever you are doing"Mr peterson said

"Kai here's the report I wrote for you "Camille said giving Kai a paper.

"You can leave "He said dropping the paper .

Xavion and Roxanne got to the camp site.

"We need first aid "Xavion said.

"What's wrong Roxie did you injure your self "Sydney said

"What do you think Sydney "Roxanne said as she was getting treated.

Kai heard noises and went to watch her. Roxanne winced as they removed some thorns from her knee.

"Xavion it's painful"She said.

"Come on just bear with it it's going to be fine"He said

Roxanne touched her neck her locket wasn't there so she closed her eyes and Xavion held her hand.

"You should be used to things like this you know cause most of your family lives in the forest"Sydney said

"You know cause you're Georgia of the jungle "Sydney said and they laughed.

"You know while I was in the jungle I met some of your ancestors and they told me to tell you that there's no way you're going to escape regret"She said.

"Don't you dare bring my ancestors into this"Sydney said

"What are you ashamed of who you are, Don't be that's your parents job"Roxanne said, everyone gasped .

"How dare you "Sydney wanted to go close to her but Kai spoke.

"Try it "

Everyone looked at him he had no expression on his face .Sydney gritted her teeth in anger .

Kai walked back to his tent where Zach was waiting for him with Nick.

"What are you doing here "He asked him.

"Zach told me everything "Nick said.

"So you found her "Nick said.

"Yeah I also found out that she is now married to Dylan Hawkins"He said

"What the..."

"Yeah "He said as he sat down .

"Is that why you're acting nice to her now"Zach said

"I'm not acting nice to her "He Said

"So you're telling me you hate her "Zach said

"I don't hate her "Kai said

"What are you saying are you even listening to your self "Zach said

"I can't have her because Xavion already has her "He said.

"He takes everything from you , your mother and now your girl"Nick Said

"She isn't mine so he didn't take her away from "He said

"I said she isn't mine but I didn't say I won't make her mine "Kai said

"I think you need to go back to rehab"Nick said as he stood up and left the tent.

"Good one Layla"Benjamin another student said.

"I'm not playing Xavion"Roxanne whispered

"Come on it will be fun "He said

"Remember I'm leaving after tomorrow "He said

"Ok fine I'll play just because of you and because you threatened me "She said and they went to the camp fire .

"What's wrong "He asked her and she looked at Kai's direction.Xavion stood up and sat next to Kai .

"Thank you"She whispered.
