This is a nice chapter, but you really need to pay attention to verb tense.  Where I see you get tripped up is with contractions; for examples "where's" and "she's" are actually contractions for "where is" and "she is," not "where was" or "she was," so when you use them in the middle of a past-tense story, they are incorrect.  Overall, unless there is a clear time-shift, you need to keep the entire story in past-tense; that means always using "was" instead of "is," even when the character is thinking to himself, because, technically, 1st-person past-tense is the narrator telling about what his thoughts WERE at the time of the event.  An example of a situation in which it would be appropriate to change the tense in the middle of a chapter would be if the narrator shifted from telling a story about something that happened in the past and began talking about himself and his thoughts at the time of him verbally recounting the story.  Examples of when I caught verb-tense mistakes: "I reached my hand to feel her forehead, which is hot."  "But seeing that we're stranded..."  "...she's definitely not feeling well."  "I have doubts about bringing her to the school nurse..."  "I am very worried with the girl in my arms."  "We are the internet generation..."  "It is simply impossible to fall in love..."  "Being in Maryssa's home... feels natural..."  "It is weird, though."
Anyways, very nice and thoughtfully constructed chapter.  Hope this helps!Wicked
