Even though the island held a lot of beauty it also held a significant level of boredom. You had little to do there, after having found supplies and allocated jobs, there was little else to do. There was only so much area you were willing to search without getting completely lost in the forest and everyone now had somewhere to sleep, so shelters were no longer needed to be built. No one on the plane had packed activities that survived. Charlie had his guitar, but you didn't know how to play and there was only a handful of books that were in one piece, but you had already read them all.

Kate suggested running down the vast stretch of sand. You weren't too impressed with the idea seen as exercising wasn't your favourite activity; however, with nothing else to do you complied hoping it would pass some time. You hadn't even reached the end of the beach before your lungs felt like they were about to fall out of your mouth. Unable to continue running, you doubled over resting your hands on your knees attempting to catch your breath. Kate looked back and laughed, making her way over to you.

"You okay?" She laughed.

"I think I need to lie down," you sighed. "I regret running."

You did as you said, lying down in the sand, resting your head in the yellow powder, not wanting to have to ever walk or run ever again. Kate rolled her eyes at you, joining you on the floor, taking your hand in hers.

"You are a daft person," she smiled. "You shouldn't have agreed to run with me. I did find it weird as to why you said yes, you never agree to run."

You shrugged your shoulders. "I know how much you like running, and you always cuddle me which I love more than you love running so it felt fair."

She shook her head, pressing a kiss to your cheek, laying down to cuddle up to your side on the sand.

"Well I do love cuddles too, and naps, I know how much you enjoy naps," she chuckled.

"They are amazing, naps and cuddles are the best things in the world especially when they are with you," you grinned thinking about all of them. "And they are far better than exercising."

Kate laughed at you. "You have to exercise at some point; for now, though, we can just cuddle hear and later we will run back."

You let out a sigh of indignation. For now, you would enjoy being wrapped in Kate's arms and just hate the run back to the camp.
