Chapter 14: Trash Talking Creek and Love Talking Branch
Jamie woke up, tied to the rock. She struggled to get it off until she realized what happened.
"That jerk!" she muttered.
She continued to struggle until she heard Creek whistling. She stopped as he approached her.
"Good. You're awake," he said.
"Did you drug me or something?" she demanded.
"Good morning to you too. And yes. It's a little invention of mine," Creek said.
"Well, I hate it," Jamie snapped.
"Doesn't matter. I needed to get you back here. And I see that your attitude towards me hasn't changed," he remarked.
"Yeah, because it won't," she stated.
"Well, you might want to because if you don't, I will do worse to Branch than what I've already done," Creek threatened.
Jamie went wide-eyed about that. She felt like her heart was being ripped out of her chest when Creek hurt Branch since she couldn't do anything about at the moment. She regained her composure, glaring at him dangerously.
"If you hurt Branch anymore, my attitude towards you will never change. You'll be begging for my insults because if you keep that up, I will make you pay," Jamie replied.
He leaned closer and said, "Oh Jamie, are you ever going to follow through with a threat toward me?"
She head-butted him, sending him back a little, and smirked as she responded, "How about that?"
Creek growled, got her, and dragged her back to the campsite where Chef was looking at Branch like he was a snack.
"Chef, watch her too. I've got to take care of something," Creek remarked, shoving Jamie to Chef and Branch.
She fell on her face and Branch squirmed over to help her up. Creek left, with his head held high while holding his nose. Branch smirked and looked at his fiancé.
"What did you do?" he asked.
"I head-butted him when he said I didn't follow through with my threats. He must've gotten a nosebleed," she answered.
Branch chuckled and responded, "That's my girl."
Jamie smiled until she thought of something and frowned slightly. Branch noticed and scooted closer to her.
"What's wrong, Angel?" he wondered.
Jamie gave a slight smile, remembering when he told her that when she sang, he said she was the real angel. But as she told him what was on her mind, she started to tear up a bit.
"Are we ever going to get out of here? I just want to be married to and have a life with the troll I've always loved from the beginning. And now, I feel that Creek isn't going to stop until I'm his again and Chef won't until every troll is digested in her stomach," she explained.
He tried to hug her the best he could, since they were both tied up.
"We will get out of here, baby. No one will get eaten and Creek will never take you back. He'll have to get through me first," Branch stated.
Jamie smiled and kissed Branch. This lasted for a minute until they heard a chuckle. They stopped and looked to see Chef, laughing at them.
"What's so funny?" Jamie demanded.
"You two. You think that I'll spare any of the trolls' lives? Once I get the chance, I'll eat you and Creek after all the trolls," Chef answered.
Jamie started to get a little afraid until she felt Branch get in front of her.
"We're fine if you eat Creek, but you're not going to eat Jamie or any other troll," Branch snapped.
Chef chuckled and remarked, "We'll find out, now will we?"
She went back to poking the fire with a stick as Branch cuddled up to Jamie protectively.
"Don't worry, Angel. We'll get out of here," he whispered.
"I believe you, baby. I love you," Jamie said.
"I love you too," Branch responded.
They went to sleep with high hopes they would get rescued.
