"Awww, come on Rex, put it on. It's your color" Nicky said, handing him a red tank top.
"Oh, I can't believe I let you talk me into this" he said pulling the shirt over his head.
"Here, put this on, too" Quackers said handing him a red bandana.
"Thanks" he said sarcastically. He put it on and walked over to the mirror on the back of the door. "Oh, I look so pretty today! I wonder if Ted would notice me? I love him so much" Rex said doing his girly voice and acting like a girl.
Quackers put her hand on his shoulder and said"You have had way too much practice talking like that"
"Hey, every guy's gotta have a hobby" he said fixing the bandana.
Rex was wearing Nicky's shirt, a few of her bracelets and Quackers' bandana and jean skirt she brought for the dance on the last night of camp. He almost looked like a girl except for one thing.
"Here, put this on" Nicky said handing him a compact with eye shadow inside and a tube of red lipstick.
"Oh, no you don't! Wearing the skirt and heels were one thing, but the make-up. No way" he protested.
"Ok, just a sec" Quackers said leaving to the hallway.
When she came back, Tuga was with her.
"What's he need" Quackers asked her.
"Well, lets see" she said crossing her arms. "I do believe he needs a little make-up. Tone would never believe him to be a girl, that is, without a little make-up" she said.
"See, Rex? I told you."
"Ya, ya, sure, sure, hand it over" he said out stretching his hand. "Now, I do this" he asked taking the eye shadow brush and sticking it into the powder then putting it on his on his eyelid. Surprisingly, he put it on right and it looked good.
"Rex? How did you know how to do that? It took me a long time before I could get it right" Nicky asked.
"I said a guy's gotta have a hobby, didn't I" Rex said opening up the lipstick container and applying it perfectly.
"Don't tell that to too many people. Even I wish you wouldn't have told me that" Quackers said.
"Oh, well. I'm Indian so I have lots of cousin, ok? And all of them are girls, except for my cousin Alexander who is a lot older than me and wont even say hi to me at the family reunions. He ignores me like I'm not even there! So, I am forced to hang with the girls. They play dress-up and tea party and even house. I don't really want to play, but I have no other choice. They force me to because they all love me so much. One time they even played make over and I was the barber. Ya, I know, barber. I give them slack because they are only six through twelve years old, so I said that I would be their barber. But what they meant by barber was I had to give them the makeovers! And on top of it I had to make them look good otherwise my aunts would kill me. So, I had to get good fast. Plus I couldn't leave because they threatened their nails at me. Now I know I'm no genius but I do know that nails hurt like hell! So I gave makeovers to my 15 cousins; they said I was a natural" Rex said.
"Wow, that explains it" Tuga said. "But I still wish I didn't know that your hobby was cross dressing!"
"Like I said, don't tell that to too many people" Quackers said.
"Ya, but now I just want to get out of here and get back to my room. I hope Jack's not up there or I'll never hear the end of it! And I'm not a crossdresser!"
The three, um four, girls walked down the hallway toward the elevators, when they heard Mr. Tone.
He was over in Ash's room. He was explaining to her about where to get the drill for later.
"Hurry, Rex! There's Mr. Tone" Tuga said and Tone came out of the room and met eyes with Rex.
