Prehistoric Forbidden Love - A Chris Pratt Fanfic

Chapter 13

"I can use some sleep. Especially after all this." Michael said and we all got in a comfortable position before dozing off.

I woke back up to someone tapping me on the shoulder.

"What?" I grumbled and it was Gray.

"Nicole, I can't sleep."

"What's wrong?"

"Just-" Gray paused and I gestures for him to come over to me. I gave him a comforting hug and he smile back at me.

"Whatever it is, it will be okay. Now get some more rest." Gray falls back asleep and so do I but this time it was very brief. I was woken back up by Claire.

Everyone was awake now and we were all given water by one of the helpers. I looked around for Owen but I couldn't seem to find him anywhere in the large sea of people.

A few minutes later a couple came up to us and it turns out that they were Zach and Gray's parents. I watched as they have their mother and father hugs and their mom began crying. Claire then did too. They both hugged then after.

"Mom this is Nicole," Gray said after the hugging, kissing and crying was all done and over with. I stood up to greet them.

"Hi," I say and I outstretched my hand for her to shake.

"Karen,"

"Scott," they both introduced themselves and I introduced myself. We talked for a while before I excused myself.

"It was a real pleasure meeting you but I have something I need to take care of." I looked over at Owen who looked back at me and smiled. Before I went over to go meet him I said goodbye to everyone else.

"Bye Michael. I'll miss you." I said and I hugged him goodbye.

"Zach, Gray. I'll miss you guys so much but I'm sure well keep in touch." I said and they smiled and hugged me.

"Claire, I'll miss you too." I then hugged her.

"Me too but we'll keep in touch." She said and she smiled. I then went to go walk over to Owen who was waiting for me. I turned around one last time and waved goodbye.

"Hey," Owen said taking my hand.

"Hi," I said back.

"So what do we do now?" Owen asked me and I looked at him tears beginning to form in my eyes.

"Probably stick together, you know... For survival."

"Owen," I paused taking a deep breath. "that's what I wanted to talk to you about." The look in his eyes changed and I looked down at the floor.

"What? Is everything okay Nicole?" He asked and I nodded.

"I don't think this is going to work Owen." I said and I let my tears fall. Owen was silent for a while and he then spoke.

"Why?" He asked softly brushing a tear from my cheek.

"I don't know. I just feel like you'll be better off with out me. We have to let go of our past Owen." I then let go of his hang and reached up and kissed him lightly on the cheek.

"Goodbye Owen," I said and I turned to leave. As I walked out I saw Vivian and Lowery. Claire, Zach, Gray, Karen, Scott and Michael and finally I looked back to see Owen still standing there.

As I walked out I though of what I had just done. Maybe it was for the best. Maybe it wasn't. I loved Owen, I truly did but there was something that was keeping me from being with him. I was something that almost felt forbidden.

- Owen's POV -

I waited for Nicole to finish saying her goodbyes before she came over to me.

"Hey," I said taking her hand.

"Hi," she responded.

"So what do we do now?" I asked her and I noticed tears begin to appear in her eyes.

"Probably stick together, you know... For survival."

"Owen," she said pausing. "that's what I wanted to talk to you about." She said looking down at the floor.

"What is everything okay Nicole?" I asked her and she nodded.

"I don't think this is going to work Owen." She said almost whispering and now tears rolled down her cheeks.

"Why?" I asked softly brushing them away.

"I don't know. I just feel like you'll be better of without me. We have to let go of our past Owen." She said letting go of my hand. Then she softly placed a kiss on my cheek.

"Goodbye Owen," she said and the left. I was still shocked that I stood there watching her leave. Zach then came up to me after I watched her leave.

"Owen. You will probably never come across a girl like her ever again. Sure I may not know much about love and all, I have been trying to find a way to dump my girlfriend for months but seriously. If I was you I would go after her." He said before walking back off to his family. I looked at all of them and they nodded as if telling me to go after her but instead I turned and walked the opposite way.
