"Wait a second. There are more people here? God, for an abandoned island this place is starting to sound like a damn resort." <br/><br/>Wiping a hand across his forehead, he glanced up as the rain continued to fall on them. It was a little annoying being out in the rain, and a bit of shelter would be nice. Looking back over at the girl, it was hard not to notice how the rain made her clothing cling to her every curve. Even in such a strange situation, he could feel a little stirring in his groin, a bit of heat moving through him as his mind immediately thought of many inappropriate things.<br/><br/>Shaking his head a bit to try and banish such thoughts from his mind, he decided to try a more gentler approach with her. He'd taken a few classes of psychology, and maybe he could put some of it to work here. "Ok listen, no need to get all angry. I just about died and I guess that got me a bit freaked out. Maybe I please ask your name? I'm Jared, Jared Saunders. I'm a doctor back home." Like talking to a skittish fawn, he tried using a softer tone of voice, calming his fear and anger to try and calm the girl before him.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Emily stood there for a moment, "Yes there are three others, my boat ran aground here three years ago. No one ever came looking. They probably think we're all dead by now." Her tone eased as he changed his tactics.<em>A doctor, boy we could use him here, and Mel would be so pleased.</em>"You don't think I know what it's like to be you? I was you three years ago, we all thought we were going to drown." Her voice softened more, "We just made do with what we could here, make the best of it." She looked into his eyes, they were both rain soaked to the bone, which made him look even more sexy. Emily closed her eyes, and turned away. "My name is Emily - Emily Waters if you must know Jared."<br/><br/>She stayed turned from him, knowing that if she did look back, things might begin to happen, thoughts stirred in her mind of this man before her, and her heart raced. Not from fear any longer but from a desire that was long buried since they landed here. "Now will you let me take you back? Or do you want to stay out here and question me some more?" As she turned back, her blue eyes locked with his and she found herself catching her breath.<em>Em, no, he might have a girlfriend a wife, someone that might look for him. Hands off girl.</em>Yet it was hard not to admire the doctor that stood in front of her. "Now we can either go back to the dwelling or back to my cave, either way we need to get out of this rain or we may both get sick. The choice is yours."
