They've got to be considering what happens if and when they get found by someone - their conduct up to this point, should it ever be discovered, could be grounds for a court-martial for fraternizing with the enemy (and her military might just skip that and assign her another suicide mission). About all we know about either side is that she was basically sold as cannon fodder - assuming that his side is even marginally less exploitative, I'm betting that she is hoping that his allies find them first so that she can defect. If her allies find them first, then they really don't have much choice but to present him as someone she captured as a POW. If a neutral party finds them first, then she could also go the defector route, although claiming she's a spy for his side might be even more effective at disincentivizing them from sending her back to her actual home country.
I'm also wondering what their roles were and what they were doing when they crashed - they were both airborne at the time and the implication is that they both crashed at about the same time, but her being a pilot that would've needed (expensive and lengthy) training doesn't match with her status as expendable meat shield. Even being assigned a kamikaze mission doesn't make sense, as she'd just fly away once she got up in the air - kamikazes need to be fanatically loyal or they won't go through with it. She doesn't seem to be struggling with survival much, so I'm thinking she was a paratrooper who was supposed to be dropped behind enemy lines - THAT'S an "oh f***, they're sending me off to die and there's nothing I can do about it" assignment. We only saw one crashed plane on the island in Chapter 1, so I'm going to assume that's his and he's a fighter pilot who was trying to shoot down her formation, and she bailed out once her plane was hit (and I'm going to assume that it then crashed in the ocean).
TL;DR: I'M ACTUALLY REALLY INVESTED IN THE MILITARY AND POLICITAL WORLDBUILDING OF THIS SILLY MINI-MANGA ABOUT HOT ENEMY SOLDIERS BONING SWEETLY AAAAAAAAA
