    Talia looked up, "Nope, I think thats all that needs to be done for today, we need more flax mats to cover the inside of the walls but we can always work on the later," she smiled as she stretched her arms up over her head then sighed.
    He shrugged,"Everyone knew who I was in Korea at least, some international fans too but it wasn't uncommon to be noticed," he said to her lightly.

    She nodded a little as she walked, sighing a bit. "Different worlds," She murmured, finding a flax patch and pulling out her knife. "I kind of want to go swimming, but we're limited on places to go. I'm bored."
    Jackson nodded a bit, looking up as Jinyoung and Bambam waved him over. "We can get ready to go to the springs if you've finished for the day. I'll go get my stuff?"

    She looked at him then nodded, "Sure, I'll go get changed and meet you by the rocks in twenty minutes?" she said to him as she chewed on the inside ofh er cheek - kill me please she thought to herself as she looked at him. Seeing him like this was enough to kill her, but seeing him relaxing in the water and just comfortable in a hot tube setting was enough to make her go crazy.
    He smiled, "Well, once we get the flax we need I suppose we could just go for a swim in the hot springs," he offered as he looked at her. "They go on for quite a while so if anyone else is there we wont bother them if we splash around,"

    "We could," She smiled a bit. "I already have my bathing suit on, so I don't need to head back to camp to change," She said. "So if you do, we can hear back for you."
    Jackson smiled a little and nodded. "Sure," He said before turning to Jinyoung and Bambam who stood off by the trees. "What?" He asked them, wondering what they were so intent on.

    "You two are going to the springs?" Bambam asked as he looked at him, "don't bring a shirt, stay like this," he said nodding a little then smiled.

    "Are you two finally together or what?" Jinyoung asked as he looked at him unamused as he looked around, "have you talked to her yet...?"
    He nodded a little,"Sounds good to me, we;ve been working hard to last few days," he admitted quietly.

    He stared at Bambam, looking at the shirt in his hand and then at Jinyoung. "No shirt? Wha- talked to her about what?" He said, picking up his bag and water bottle. "We aren't together, why? Has she said anything?" He asked curiously.
    She nodded a little and continued gathering flax, sighing a bit. "I'll be so happy to just sit and do nothing," She murmured. "If possible I'd sleep in the hot springs." She laughed a little, putting the bundles she gathered into her bag.

    "She won't look at you, she's awkward, shes gotten super quiet - she likes you," he shrugged,"and you're attractive, hence the reason why she can't look you in the eyes for longer than five seconds," Bambam said as he listed things occasionally speaking in Korean when he didn't know how to phrase something.
    He smiled a little,"that sounds nice, too bad theres no chairs," he murmured as he continued to gather the long strands of flax shoving it into the makeshift sack then sighed a little.

    Jackson grinned a little and shrugged. "Well, okay. I'm happy then. I'll talk to her about it." He said, tossing his shirt back into his bag. "Then I'll only bring my towel," He said with a small smile, grabbing it and his water bottle. He turned back to where he said he would meet Talia and grinned. "Ready?"
    She nodded a little. "Too bad," She said, finishing up tying up the bundles and standing up. "Do you need to go back to camp to change? We can drop off the flax and then go to the springs. We could ask a few of the others if they want to come too, if you'd like." She suggested, sort of hoping he would agree, being alone with him was nice, but it was also hard, she had to remind herself that he was younger than her, and by a lot.

    "No, I always keep my swimming shorts on," he admitted,"Never know when you'll have to get in the water - we've been finding all sorts of stuff floating ashore lately," they had found boxes that looked like they'd come off of the plane, but they seemed to be from sort of air carrier. He wondered if another plane had been downed nearby and if they were just as unlucky as they were, "We've gotten some useful things in those boxes, like those scissors and the huge box of dental floss,"
    Talia nodded,"Yep, all set," she said to him smiling as she grabbed her towel then wet her lips. She climbed up the wall then sat on the edge before standing up. "I'm going to be so fit when I get back," she said laughing a little,"my family won't even recognize me,"

    Jackson grinned as he walked with her, climbing up and grabbing his bag. "I got to do a show in the jungle before, but it wasn't as real as this." He said, walking behind her. "I don't even want to know what I'll look like when we're found. Bigger, most likely." He joked. He walked into the springs, setting his bag down on the edge. He walked in, sitting down on the edge.
    She nodded a little and stood, closing up her bag. "alright then, come on." She said, walking the long way toward the springs. "That was lucky, I never thought I'd be so happy to see floss," She laughed a bit.

    He laughed and nodded,"yeah i never knew there was that much space between my teeth," he admitted as he shook his head, "and tooth paste, there were a couple of those that showed up - it was like a miracle,"
    She laughed a little,"I'm going to need to cut my hair soon, it's getting unruly - having a brush is great but I'm running out of hair ties they keep breaking,"

    "Me too," She laughed, shaking her head. "I'm hoping more toothpaste washes up, or we're found before we run out." She said, tightening the bag and beginning to climb. When she got to the top, she walked towards the fountain, going over to the top.
    He smiled a little. "You'd look cute with shorter hair, but I like your hair a lot now." He said with a small shrug, wondering how she would react.

    Her cheeks flushed and she began to remove her tank top setting it on the rocks then pushed her shorts down over her hips setting them next to her tank top. The bikini she wore had been one of her favorites - support in all the right places and it fit her perfect now it was a little loser than it had been before. "I always wanted to grow it out but never had the time to take care of it,"
    He nodded,"What about some food seasonings or something, maybe some box meals," he joked a little as he shook his head,"It's be nice to have some ramen,"

    "I'd be happy with something as simple as ramen too," She agreed, going over and walking around the trail to the springs.
    He smiled a bit, pulling off his shorts and walking into the water. "You have all the time in the world now," He joked. "At least until we're rescued."

    Talia let out a deep breath then slowly walked into the water sighing, "The winds are getting colder, so winter is coming. I'm sure it wont be too badb ut fishing is going to suck here soon," she murmured with a sigh. "I finished the nets yesterday and I'm working on the group line but we'll be okay I think," she said as she sunk down into the water then sighed contently.
    He nodded as he followed her, "any kind of ramen is fine, but I'd prefer chicken," he admitted as he looked at the steaming water.

    "I like chicken too, but I like beef ramen with red pepper flakes, its really good." She said, setting down her bag and pulling the strap over her head. She kicked off her shoes, and pushed her shorts off, pulling her shirt over her head and shoving them into the bag. She climbed into the water, closing her eyes and sighing.
    He nodded. "Yeah, but luckily it shouldn't get too cold. Where we are, it shouldn't even touch 40, let alone 50, but it'll feel like it." He shrugged. "But it shouldn't be too bad, since now you'll have me." He grinned at her widely.

    Talia looked at him then smiled, "Well lucky me then," she said lightly as she closed her eyes enjoying the warm water then rubbing her face with it, "This is so nice," she murmured to him as she wet her hair then ran her fingers through it massaging her scalp - she should wash it but she'd have to get out to rinse it using one of the make shift bowls so she'd do that last.
    Yugeyeom nodded a little as he removed his shirt and jeans before getting into the water, it was warm and it made him think of the hotsprings back home that he'd visit as often asp ossible.

    He nodded a little and then looked at her. "Can I ask you something? I heard from someone that you might have a crush on me," He said to her slowly. "If I'm wrong, I'm sorry. If not, why didn't you tell me before?"
    She sighed and closed her eyes, relaxing into the water.

    Her eyes went a little wide as she looked at him then the water, who could have possibly figured it out? She thought she'd been pretty discreet at keeping things hidden, "I.. I figured that it didn't really matter," she said to him softly as she watched her hand move through the water, "it's not like you feel the same way," she laughed sheepishly as she rubbed the back of her neck. "they never do," she murmured the last bit. She'd been single since high school so her experience with relationships was very limited, and any time she'd tried to put herself out there it bit her in the ass.
    "I wish we could have ice cream," he murmured thoughtfully then dunked under the water to wet his hair before coming back up for air.
