Gripping the pepper spray in her backpack, Raegan asserted, “Move aside. I
need to find my partner.”
One of the men intercepted her and mocked, “You little liar. Your partner deserted
you just now.”
Raegan’s demeanor hardened.
“Do you wish to verify my honesty?”
Those men had come for leisure, not trouble. When laying eyes on the stunning
Raegan, they attempted to flirt with her. But they harbored no ill intents.
One relented first, saying, “Easy, miss. No offense intended.”
As he coaxed his friend away, he reassured Raegan, “All clear. You can go.”
However, the man halting in Raegan’s track lingered, his eyes fixating on
Raegan.
With a few steps forward, Raegan noticed his gaze still following her.
After a while, Raegan spotted Mitchel propped against a tree, stealing glances at
her as she descended.
Avoiding any interaction, Raegan opted to tread further down and settled in the
shade, anticipating Bryce’s arrival.
The midday sun scorched the hillside, igniting a thirst within Raegan.
Unfortunately, the only water bottle was gone.
The prospect of enduring two days under such conditions seemed daunting,
especially under the assumption that Bryce would deny her water, unless she
conceded defeat.
As Mitchel made his descent, Raegan shut her eyes, subscribing to the mantra
“out of sight, out of mind”.
Yet, as he walked by, a scent she knew all too well wafted toward her.
The sound of something striking the ground prompted Raegan to open her eyes.
Mitchel had left a water bottle behind.
She puzzled over why she'd never before considered his Littering impolite.
The bottle, caught in a sunbeam, seemed to have water rippling inside.
Skeptical, Raegan blinked hard, only to confirm it was indeed half- full.
