Carrie?”
“She said she had gotten enough pictures an d was ready to call it a night,” he replied.
“Last song everyone!” called the DJ.
“You heard the man,” said Kevin pulling Seanna to her feet.
They joined everyone who had enough energy to be on the dance floor for one last dance. Before it was over Samantha and Daffyd had snuck off to the honeymooners’ cabana that had been prepared for them to share the remainder of their stay on the Island. Hugs and ‘goodnights’ were shared as everyone drifted off to their perspective cabanas. Kevin’s was in the opposite direction from the others, so he was the first to leave. Bryce walked Alyssa and Seanna to their cabana, a pretty girl on each arm. When they were just saying goodbye at the steps, Seanna remembered the film and the sim card.
“Bryce, do you know if anyone got the film or the sim card from Carrie?” she turned and asked.
“I don’t think so, but I’m sure it will be ok until the morning,” he replied.
“Yeah, you’re right. It’s not like she’s going anywhere,” she said giving him a final pat on the arm. “Good night Big Brother.”
“Sweet sleep you two,” he called as he walked away.
“That was fun,” said Alyssa as she got ready for bed.
“It was!” agreed Seanna as she walked into the bathroom. When she was done Alyssa was already comfy in bed.
Seanna got in her own bed and thought about the day. Though it was a wonderful day, something niggled at the back of her mind. Not being able to go to sleep she got back up and put on some clothes. As she was leaving, Alyssa called sleepily to her, “Where are you going?”
“I’m going to go and get the film. I just have a feeling I should,” she answered. “I’ll sleep better knowing that I’ve got it .”
It only took her a few minutes to get to Kevin’s cabana. She almost turned around when she saw that the lights were off. This is silly. They are already asleep. No sooner had that thought come, her mind then registered the low voices coming from the open window. Quietly she walked up the stairs and to the window. She didn’t know why she didn’t just make herself known, but that niggling feeling was back. Enough moonlight was streaming in the window that she could clearly see two people in bed together. She stood there long enough to know that they were not sleeping. Suddenly her stomach felt hollow and her throat so tight she couldn’t breathe. horrified, she forgot all about the film and quickly stumbled down the stairs and headed for her own cabana. She was crying so hard that she didn’t see Bryce until he caught her right before she would have crashed into him.
“Sea, what’s wrong,” he asked with concern, holding her close.
“Get me out of here,” she said grabbing him by the shirt. Bryce turned around keeping his hold on Seanna with one arm and led her back to his Cabana. He got her inside sitting on the couch and calmed down enough to understand what she was saying. “I couldn’t sleep, I kept thinking about that stupid film…I can’t help it I just never liked his cousin…oh, God…I hope she’s not his cousin…”
“What happened Sea?” he asked gently he still had his arm around her shoulder sitting next to her.
“Bryce, they were having sex…” she sobbed into his shirt.
“Are you sure…” he had to ask.
“I stood there like an idiot not wanting to believe it, but they weren’t covered…yeah, I’m sure. I feel sick. I’ll never be able to get that picture out of my mind,” she continued to cry.
Bryce was at a loss as to what to say, so he just sat quietly and let her cry it out. Finally she heaved a heavy sigh and sat up. She took one look at his soaked shirt and giggled, which worried him even more. He’d never heard Seanna giggle
