I was alone destined to die. But he found me. “Are you ok?” We were in the middle of the ocean in peak winter season. I was in a fish net, his fish net. “Are you ok?” He repeated. “What the hell?” He quickly pulled me out of the net and lifted me onto the boat. My eyes flickered open. “Who are you?” I mumbled. My eyes started to close again. “No, stay with me” he said. I blacked out again.

He was standing over me. “You alive?” He said. “Where am I?” I responded.

“ Can you answer a stupid question?!”

“Um,”

“ I’m sorry, I’m being a jerk. You just stay there and I’ll get you some food.”

I looked around I was in a boat and my close were changed. Wait did he change my clothes? That’s embarrassing. Then I remembered everything. I started to cry. The boy came back. “Hey, hey, what’s wrong? You’re ok. You’ll be ok.” He sat down and wrapped his arms around me. We sat like that for a few minutes me bawling my eyes out. “ You should eat.” He said quietly. He gave me some bread. That was the first time I really looked at him. He had dark brown eyes, slightly tanned skin, and fluffy brown hair. He was young around my age, maybe 19? “ Thank You” I said. He chuckled. “What?” I questioned. “You, you said thank you” “do you have a problem with that?!” “ well I mean it looks like you’ve been in the ocean for days, weak, tired, and you say thank you.” I huff and turn away. “Hey, you need to answer some questions for me.”

“You first” I said. he looked confused “ who are you? Where are we? And Why did you rescue me?”I said. “We are in a boat of the Atlantic coast, and who wouldn’t rescue a nice young girl like yourself.” “You didn’t answer my question. Who are you?” Well, my name’s Alexander but who I am, you’ll have to figure that out for yourself”
