I hope y'all like this chapter – I think it's funny (sorta)! Plz read it (and then you might as well review while you're at it!). Enjoy!
P.S. Again, I wrote the italics, and the normal text is direct from the book.
Quigley shrugged and sighed. Small bits of ice from the waterfall fell from the ends of forks and blew away in the wind. "It's like we never really knew our parents," he said.
"We knew them," Violet said. "They just had a few secrets, that's all. Everyone should keep a few secrets."
"I suppose so," Quigley said, "but they might have mentioned that they were in a secret organization with a headquarters hidden in the Mortmain Mountains."
"Maybe they didn't want us to find out about such a dangerous place," Violet said, peering off the ledge, "although if you have to hide a headquarters, it's a beautiful place to do it. Aside from the remains of the fire, this is a very lovely view."
"Very lovely indeed," Quigley said, but he was not looking at the view beneath him. He was looking beside him, where Violet Baudelaire was sitting.
"What did you just say?" Violet asked,
"I said, you are very lovely," Quigley said.
"How could you say something like that," Violet exclaimed, "When I'm not even single!" she reached up, and smacked him on the face.
"You what!" Quigley asked,
"I have been e-mailing Duncan ever since we were separated at Prufrock Prep, thank you very much!" she said,
"Duncan?" asked Quigley, "As in Duncan Quagmire?"
"Correct!" Violet said coolly.
"I'm gonna kill that guy!" Quigley growled,
"Nobody says that about my fiancé!" Violet shrieked, and slapped him again.
"Fiancé?" asked Quigley in horror, "You're too young to marry!"
"Count Olaf gave me permission years ago!"
"You're crazy!" he told her.
She slapped him again, "And to think I thought you were a good friend!" she said, and headed up the hill without him, taking his fork-shoes with her.
"But Violet, I'll be stuck here forever! I'll die!" he called to her,
"That's the idea!" she replied, and left him there to starve.
As you may have been able to tell, I am a V/D supporter, as well as a Quigley-hater. Sorry if this chapter upset or angered you! The next chapter will make Violet suffer! Plz review!
