Stranded

"What the fuck was that-"

"Shh." I hush Harry.

"What are we even doing?" He whisper yells.

"Getting breakfast." I whisper back, stepping onto the side of a tree.

"Can you catch good?" I ask.

"I guess." He shrugs.

"Good. Now don't sqeeze unless you want a mess." I say climbing up the side of the tree. I hear him snicker. Pervert.

I woke up way before the sun came up. A little while later Harry woke up and now were getting food.

I get up to the nest I saw and look inside. Perfect, 5 eggs. I grab them in my hands and turn around to face Harry down below.

"Okay, you ready to catch them?" I yell.

"I guess." He says holding his hands out.

"Please don't drop them." I pray.

"I won't, now c'mon." He ushers me.

I hold out one egg down low. I let it drop, closing my eyes.

"Damn it." He curses.

"Damnit Harry! I told you don't drop it!" I yell at him.

"I'm kidding geez. I got it." He laughs.

"Dickhead." I mutter.

I drop the rest of the eggs, climbing back down the side of the tree. I'm still a good 10 feet from the ground when I step on a branch and it snaps under my foot.

"Fuck." I curse.

I fall to the ground and land on my back with a thud.

"Aw, damn." I groan as I roll over.

Harry runs over to me, helping me up.

"Oh my god. Are you okay?" He asks, worry in his voice. Aw, curly's worried about me.

"Yea. Just hit my head pretty hard and knocked the wind out of me. You'd be a great spotter on a cheer squad Harry." I say sarcastically.

"Sorry, I didn't know you fell." He says as I try to walk, wobbling.

"Here." He hands me the eggs.

"Oh, so now you make me carry the eggs? First I fall out of a tr-" He cuts me off by picking me up.

"Happy now?" He asks.

"Yes. Actually. I think I broke my ankle." I say looking down at it.

"Oh, holy crap that's gross." He says looking at it in disgust.

"Then stop looking at it and walk." I order.

"Which way?" He asks.

I point North and he starts walking that way. After about 10 minutes of walking we finally make it out to the shelter.

"There you guys are! You scared us! Where were you?" Liam asks, walking over to us.

"Uh, getting breakfast." I say, handing him the eggs.

"Harry, why are you carrying her?" Zayn asks suspiciously as Harry sets me on a big rock.

"I-uh. I kinda fell 10 feet out of a tree." I say quietly.

"Oh my god. Are you okay?" He runs over to me. Uh, what the hell?

"I may or may not have broke my ankle." I say as I take my shoe and sock off.

It's starting to swell and it's turning a purple/blueish colour. Aw, fuck.

"Holy mother of god." I say looking at it.

"I didn't know it was this bad. It didn't even hurt that bad." I say in disbelief.

"Jesus christ." Niall comes waltzing out of the shelter, looking at my ankle.

"What the hell did you do?" Louis follows him.

"I think a more important question is what did you do?" I ask, looking at Louis and Niall who look like they just got epically beat by the ninja turtles.

"Yea, Lou, are you cheating on me now?" Harry asks, fake hurt in his voice.

"Shut up. I just woke up." He glares at Harry and I.

"Now, what the hell happened?" Louis asks, sitting next to me.

"I fell." I say.

"You broke your ankle by falling?" He asks, looking at me like I've gone insane.

"Out of a tree." I say.

"Uh, why were you in a tree in the first place?" He asks.

"I was getting you guys breakfast. Now someone go make it before Niall ends up eating me." I say looking cautiously at Niall, who's drooling over the eggs.

Harry grabs them and starts to walk away but then turns around.

"Uh, how am I suppose to cook them?" He asks.

"I made a fire and put a big, thin rock to heat up while we left. Use that and a stick." I say and he nods, walking away.

"How do you know all this?" Zayn asks.

"I watch a lot of tv." I shrug.

"Someone go get me my bag." I say, looking between them.

Zayn gets up and grabs my bag from inside.

"Get the ones that washed up too!" I yell.

He comes back out with them and brings them over. I unzip my bag, digging through it. I grab my bag of medicines out and set them by my side.

"Jesus. How much medication do you need?" Niall asks.

"I like to be prepared." I shrug.

"So you predicted we would crash and brought everything you'd need? I bet you even knew you'd break your ankle and have crutches." He says.

"I did not. I just think about everything. I thought that maybe the flight would end up going somewhere else or I'd get stuck somewhere. Or maybe a passenger would need some medicine or something. I don't know." I say.

"True." He nods.

I swallow a pill to help the swelling and pain. I can't take too many. We might need them for somehting more serious in the future.

"Open that bag and see what's in there." I tell them.

I grab the other one and search through it.

"Look for any fabric thats somewhat thick." I say.

We look through them, me having no luck.

"Wait! I have something." Liam yells, running to the shelter and grabbing his bag.

"I totally forgot I had it." He says pulling out a roll of ace bandage and handing it to me.

"How do you forget you have this? I broke my ankle and this is exactly what this is for practically." I say, looking at him.

"I dunno. I never really thought of it." He shrugs.

"Okay. Liam you look like the toughest one when it comes to this stuff. So I need you to relocate my ankle." I say.

"Wait-You, what?" Niall stutters.

"My ankle isn't straight smart one. Do you see it? It needs to be relocated and unless one of you idjits want to do it, I think Liam should." I say.

"Uh, alright." Liam says getting down on his knees.

"I don't want to hurt you." He says carefully touching it.

"Liam, it's gonna hurt me even more if you don't do this. I may not even be able to walk again if it stays like this." I explain.

"Alright." He sighs.

I grab one of my belts out of my bag and place it between my teeth.

"Oh god. I can't watch." Niall runs into the shelter.

Liam rolls his shoulders and shakes his head, grabbing ahold of my ankle. He twists it and I let out a scream of pain into the belt, clentching my fists. I squeeze my eyes shut as he moves it even more. I scream again as I feel someone grab my hand. I look over and see Zayn holding onto me. With one more quick jolt, Liam lines up the bone. God, it feels horrible! It feels like someone moving a bone inside me, okay, mostly because that's exactly what's happening. The break keeps scratching against the inside of my skin and it feels like somehtings trying to get outside of me. All of the sudden my cries are mixed with laughs.

"Okay. Done." He gets up, shaking the sand off of his pants.

"Thanks Liam." I smile.

"No problem. Just try not to break anything else. I never want to do that again." He shudders at the thought.

"I'll try." I say as I wipe the tears from my cheeks.

"Now, explain why you were laughing while he was doing that?" Louis asks, looking at me like I've gone mad.

"When she gets hurt she laughs. She's always done that. She's strange." Zayn says.

I look at him in disbelief. How does he know that, okay let me refraise that. How does he remember that?

"You are one strange child." Louis says.

"Speak for yourself." I say as I try and move my ankle closer so I can wrap it.

Zayn takes the bandage from my hand and wraps my ankle up.

"Are you guys alright? I heard someone screaming." Harry comes running from around the corner.

"Man, you are not good with saving people are you? First you let me fall out a tree and now after five minutes you finally come running around the corner to see if I'm okay?" I laugh.

"Well, I figured you have 4 other guys here that won't let anything happen. And I didn't even know you fell until I heard you hit the ground." He defends himself.

"Yea yea." I laugh.

"Anyway, it sounded like you were being murdered. What the hell happened?" He asks.

"Liam realigned the bone in my ankle." I say casually.

"Uh. Painful much?" He says with a pained look.

"Yea it felt like a demon baby trying to rip out from my foot." I say.

"Good description." Liam laughs.

"It's the only thing I could think of." I shrug.

Thank god Liam had two rolls of the ace. I can stand up now. But I can't put weight on it. I can barely walk now.

I stand up and try and walk over to the fire. I trip and almost fall on the way there.

"That's it." Harry runs up and picks me up bridal style.

I sigh and don't try and fight. I can't walk worth crap now. He sets me down on a tree stump and hands me a small rock with some scrambled eggs on it.

"Guys! Come get the food while it's hot!" He yells.

Niall comes running out and grabs the biggest 'plate' of eggs. The rest of them come and get their share and we eat.

"Alright. So I was thinking, keyword was, now that Sky's ankle is messed up. We could go out and search for any shelter or better enviorment at least." Liam suggests.

"Yea. But we can't go too far in. We need time to get back here before dark. If we find a place we can leave a trail. Like maybe break some branches on the way back or something." I explain.

"Yea. Maybe since you're handicapped now, you can stay and keep an eye out here." He says gesturing to my ankle.

"It's better for you to rest anyway. I can stay with you incase something happens." Zayn volunteers.

"Yea. The rest of us can go." Louis agrees.

Of course. I get stuck with Zayn. I'd rather be stuck with Harry. And that's saying a lot.

"Why not Harry?" I ask.

"Awe. Does Sky have a little crush?" Louis teases.

"I do not. I'd just rather have Harry." I say.

"Why? I thought you and Zayn are good friends?" Niall says.

That's what he told them? He said we're good friends? We are anything but friends. I hate this kid. He made my life hell.

"Uh. I was just suggesting. I thought I should get to know you guys better." I shrug. I'm doing an awful lot of shrugging lately.

"Alright. So who's staying with Sky?" Liam asks confused.

"Me or Zayn?" Harry asks.

"Harry, they need you. You're better with that stuff anyway." Zayn says.

"Yea." He agrees. Crap.

"Alright. So Zayn's staying." Liam confirms as they all nod.

"We should probably get going." He says getting up.

"If you're not back by 7, I'm going looking for you guys." I tell them.

"You got a watch right Liam?" I ask and he nods holding up his wrist with a rolex watch wrapped around it.

"Oh guys wait." I say as they start walking to the woods.

I hop back over to my bag and unzip a few zippers. I pull out what I was looking for.

"Uh, I'll put Liam in charge of this." I sy handing him my pocket knife.

"How did you get this through security?" He asks putting it in his pocket.

"I have skills." I say.

"Alright. Well, let's go guys." He says walking to the woods.

"See ya later guys!" I say as they wave.

Now I'm stuck here with Zayn for a whole day. Lord help me.
