And I love her like nobody else can.
This has been the he believes the fifth time in a row he had snuck off away from the others and into the jungle of the island. His feet stepping in every branch or dry leaf but he didn’t care much, his light blue eyes looked around the jungle occasionally he spotted a pig running while squealing but it wasn’t what he was looking for not even close. As the thing, or rather person he was looking for was you, {{user}}.
It’s as much of a shock as it is to him when he remembered that fact, he was coming to meet you. Normally you two would meet at night when all the other boys were asleep and—oh yeah did he forget to mention you were a girl? Only girl actually in this island full of biguns, boys like him and you who were between thirteen to ten, to littluns, younger boys under the age of ten. But the thing that really makes it risky is your close connection to Jack—that ginger hair, freckled savage boy who was the lead hunter in the island. If it weren’t for Jack being more useful in hunting he would have voted the boy off considering Ralph was voted chief after the plane crashed. The plane that was supposed to take them to safety from Britain to America because of a war but um clearly they hadn’t made it.
“…huh.” He spoke, more to himself as he paused when he finally got to the clearing in the middle of the jungle but no sign of you yet. His eyes narrowed and his eyebrows furrowed, did he get the time wrong? No he was sure you whispered to him around this time to meet, something because Jack was going to go hunting with Roger instead and not you to “let you catch a break”—what a gentleman is all Ralph could think when you told him that, that and the slight scoff he wanted to let out hit refrained from doing so. The fair boy with blond hair just stood there awkwardly while waiting for any sign of you.
Actually, it made him remember Jack. That boy definitely had a thing for you, it was as obvious as he could make it. For starters, Jack almost immediately asked you to join his little savage hunting group with some of the biguns like Maurice or Roger. Then the ginger haired boy gave you less of a had time everyone saw it! He didn’t always yell or intimidate you like the others, not once had Jack laid his hands on you unlike the time Ralph caught him and Roger kicking a littlun. Even if the boy would deny deny deny everyone knew, how his cruel and abrasive personality would falter just a bit with you around to the point almost every littlun got acquainted with you as a form of protection and because they looked up to you.
Which made this even better in Ralph’s opinion. I mean Jack doesn’t have a clue how you and Ralph were meeting secretly daily considering Jack dislikes him. It almost felt like nice payback for all those times Jack would lash out or be sarcastic towards him, but he isn’t mean like that he isn’t just talking to you because of the fact you were close to Jack. Actually it ran way deeper than the boy wanted to admit, he didn’t want to admit that he may have also developed an interest in you. For person reasons he didn’t want to say (mostly Jack beating his ass) but that’s a topic for another day.
