Eric's POVwhen I woke up this morning keera was no longer on the bed I thought she had left the cave but later heard the sounds of splashing water from the hot tub.I usually don't sleep in but I did today maybe because I slept late last night. I couldn't fall asleep after what happened.when Keera left after we kissed, all realization dawned on me. like what the fuck was I thinking when I kissed her, I know I'm not in love with her and I probably would never be so why did I do that? I asked myself a thousand times while pulling on my hair.I don't want to hurt her she deserves someone better than me someone with fewer issues and someone who can love her with the whole of his heart and not just part.I know I was attracted to her that I'll admit to, but love is on a whole different level which would be hard to attain because it drove me here...I know I still love jade even with everything that happened, and part of me knows no matter what I will still love her, and that kills me eac
Keera's POVWhen Eric apologized for the kiss last night, I immediately felt flustered, I couldn't even imagine how my face looked with the way my blood drained completely from it. I was so dumbfounded that I couldn't even find any words to say to him, so I just fled angrily and went to the only place that came to mind and I wanted to be was on top of the hill...I believed climbing up that hill would help me calm down a little bit, but it didn't, if anything it made me more furious than I had already been, I kept on planning ways to murder Eric in my head and live alone here or die of boredom.I was still unable to come up with a valid plan, and before I knew it I was at the top of the hill. Even amid all my furiousness, I couldn't help but notice how dried the hilltop was something I had failed to notice the first time I came up here with Eric...Which made me confused as to why the top of the hill was dried if the waterfall was right beneath it.I could hear the sound of the gushin
Eric's POVWhen Keera asked if we could stay a little bit longer, I looked at her with a raised eyebrow not sure if she meant it or if she only said that to pull my legs since she always seems to be joking, but when I asked her why, what she said and how her face looked so down, which was totally the opposite of the jovial person she was just a couple of seconds ago, and that made realization dawned on my face.I was only thinking about myself, I didn't consider if Keera wanted to leave just yet. I mean I remember her saying she doesn't want to leave just a few days ago, I should have known she'd be scared to face the outside world, completely oblivious of whom to trust out there.And that reminds me of my thoughts on how I'd planned to let her stay with me and gauge the situation before letting her go back home because I needed to be sure that she is safe to be back home. I wanted to tell her we might be able to stay a few more days, but I had to check a few things first before I do
Keerah's POVwhen I woke up this morning it was from a nightmare as usual but today something was different, I remembered. I remembered what happened in the dream and it felt so real like I was living that exact moment.In the dream, I was somewhere high and someone was trying to push me, a lady to be precise. she appeared to be someone I know, but I'm not sure what kind of relationship I share with her.I was struggling to fight her off as she tried to push me off from the high place, it looked like some rooftop of a building. I held onto her arms as I tried so hard not to fall off but she seemed a little stronger than I'm as she forcefully yanks my hands off from mine, and then pushed me off.As I fell from a place that high, the fall was endless, and I didn't just feel scared from the fact that I might die from that fall, I felt a terrible heartache from the feeling of being betrayed by someone I completely trust...I woke up right at the moment I had hit the ground and I was compl
Keera's POVwhen I recalled the fact that we were set to leave this place in a few days, I couldn't help but feel sad as I realized I do not want to leave this island anymore. This is a life I've come to love and this is a life I honestly want to keep living.I don't know how I felt about facing the outside world without any memories of myself and I'm also completely frightened by the fact that I might not really be able to trust anyone.Even though Eric had asked me to trust him, I don't know if it only meant for as long as we were here, I could trust him or if he was also indicating that I should trust him even after we are to return to Vienna, Austria...The fear of what I might find outside this place, coupled with the fact that I might lose Eric as soon as we were back in Vienna, forced me to say what I did next..."Can't we just stay here-" I paused, before adding "forever?" I asked Eric worriedly, as I couldn't keep the worries bottled up any longer.Eric watched me closely befo
Eric's POV,When keerah proposed we watch the sunset, I only agreed to it because I didn't want her to feel lonely.So we sat there silently letting our thoughts run wild, but then I realized I hadn't gone for the hunting I was supposed to which meant we had no dinner for tonight."Shit!" I exclaimed while getting up from my sitting position and Keerah did the same."What, what is it Eric," she asked worriedly."There's no dinner for tonight," I announced as I run my hands through my head a few times."How could I have forgotten that," I said after a while, and then Keera looks at me with furrowed eyebrows probably confused about my sudden plight for the lack of dinner."How could I have forgotten to go hunting," I mumbled to myself."Why are you so disturbed though, are you that hungry?" Keerah asked while staring at me. When she said that, I looked at her with furrowed eyebrows before asking her if she wasn't hungry."I'm not that hungry, and even if I were, we could just eat some
Keerah's POV"I see you wanna be my dinner tonight," Eric said his voice sounding extremely low, while he blew a small air into my neck, and I felt my body completely stiffen."Relax Kee, you're not gonna die from being my dinner, you're just gonna be screaming in pure ecstasy," He said into my ear.And I felt blood rushed up to my cheeks, which I'm sure had become as crimson as they could ever be."Come with me," Eric said and started to tug my hand and I reluctantly moved my feet and followed him."But it's not yet time for dinner," I mumbled but I didn't try to stop him from taking me inside the cave."What better time could there be to having dinner than when the sun just went down," Eric said, with a smile, even though I couldn't see his face but I could tell from his voice that he has that beautiful smile of his on his face, A smile that I never wanna stop seeing.Eric stopped abruptly, when we entered the cave, causing me to come crash into him because I was staring down at my
Keerah's POVThe suns reflection on the lake made it looked like they were diamond studs inside them. I hugged my arms to my body while watching the lake, trying to let off all my negative thoughts into the freezy air.I was still standing by the lake trying to let go of all the thoughts but they just wouldn't leave. If I managed to stop thinking about one, another one just pops up.I had been able to stop thinking about how all this might mean nothing to Eric. But then thought of the dream I had two days ago, came playing in my head.I couldn't help but wonder if the dream meant something, or if it had something to do with what happened to me, to make me lose my memories.I tried to think about the face of the person that pushed me, but I couldn't picture it in full detail.I was so lost in the world of my thoughts, that I didn't even hear footsteps because the next thing I know was that I felt two arms wrapped around my small waist and a gentle kiss was placed on the crown of my hea
