Chapter3: Squid's Secret
Disclaimer: Ok so like I don't own Holes or any of the characters, I only own Kaylee Walters. Ok? Ok!
So like the first chapter was kinda weird I must admit, but I didn't know how to start it, so I had to start it like that. Ok, ok! Oh, by the way it may not be Squid and Kaylee that get together because she might have a little secret. However, I do not want to tell you guys too much, ya'll will just have to keep reading! Luv ya'll-Kelsey Keep Reviewing!
I walked into the tent and saw one open cot, mine. So I put my stuff down and walk out. As I was walking out Squid was walking in.
"Kaylee, where are you going?" He asked.
"Magnet said he would show me around the camp. So I'm not lost when I come in at night time. Which is when he says I will be done with my first hole. He doesn't have a lot of confidence in me, does he?" I responded.
"Oh, ok, I will see you at dinnertime then." He said.
"Ok, see you around!" I yelled as I hope out the door.
"Hey chica! Where have you been?" Magnet asked as I came into view.
"Note to self, King Magnet doesn't like lateness." I said only loud enough for him to hear, "Kidding, I was talking to Squid. Is that ok?"
"Yeah, it's just that you gotta be careful, about him, ok?" he replied.
"Yeah, ok. Why?" I asked.
"I better let him tell you. I like living." He said.
"Ok, so lets get this tour on the road." I said.
He showed me the showers, the bathroom, the Wreck Room, and the library, and around the time we got to the mess hall, we saw ZigZag.
"Hey Zig!" Magnet yelled.
"Hey Magnet, what are you doing?" ZigZag asked.
"I'm just showing Kaylee around." He replied, "Wanna join us?"
"Did you tell her about the yellow spotted lizards? Zig asked.
"Yellow spotted lizards?" I asked.
"Yeah, they are the most poisonous reptiles. And each of them have exactly eleven spots, but is you get close enough to count them, you're dead." He explained.
"Oh that's good to know." I said, "Now I'm gonna have nightmares!"
"Don't worry, I've been here for eleven months and never seen one." He said.
"Ok, that's good to know." As I said that the dinner bell rang. And I now had to face the rest of the camp.
I got in line behind Squid and looked at what we were eating. It looked to be something like beans and spinach and some bread. But I couldn't be sure, I thought I saw it moving. I sat down at the D-tent table between ZigZag and Armpit, and across from Squid. X-Ray was at the head of the table. He leaned over and asked, "Since you didn't dig today, you wouldn't mind giving your bread to someone who did, now would you?"
"Actually, I would because you see, it's a long drive from New York, so get your paws off my food, k? Ok!" I replied.
"Oh, so we got another New Yorker on our hands do we? Squid here is from New York as well ain't you?" Armpit asked.
"Yeah I am. What part are you from?" Squid asked.
"Oh, I'm from the Bronx. But then my mom moved to the Big Apple, she got a better job there. She was a fashion designer. Then she died and I was a ward of the state and they sent me here." I explained.
"I lived in the Bronx my whole life, till I got sent here." Squid said.
"Why did you get sent here?" I asked.
"I'd rather not talk about it, ok?" he replied.
"Ok, that's fine." I said.
For the rest of dinner the boys and I talked about what the real world was like. Since I was the only one who was there just recently, I told them all I knew. Only Zero and Squid said nothing. When Squid finished, I got up with him and threw my trash away as well. I felt like I needed to saw sorry to him for getting in his personal space to soon. I walked behind him and sat on the steps outside the tent to try to figure out what I was gonna say to him. Finally I got up and walked in.
He was on his cot, he was reading a magazine. I walked over to his cot and sat down beside him. I looked at him and I saw that he had been crying. I looked to see what he was reading about, I saw that it was a horse magazine. I looked at him curiously. 'What is he doing reading a horse magazine?' I thought. I took a deep breath and started, "Squid I'm really sorry about upsetting you at dinner tonight. The guys told me that you were usually a smart ass, and always talking, so when you stopped talking I knew I upset you. So I just wanted to apologize to you. You don't have to say anything, but I just wanted you to know, I'm sorry." I got up and walked to my cot and got out a Teen People magazine and I laid down to read it.
After what seemed like ten minutes, I heard a voice. "It's ok, I forgive you. It's just I'm a little sensitive on the subject. And you are probably wondering why I'm reading this magazine. Aren't you?" He replied.
"Yeah actually I was. What's up with it?" I asked, "I would think it would be Magnet reading something like that."
"I love horses. They are the most beautiful animals in the world. So graceful and peaceful. Plus my horse was killed when I was five so that we didn't get evicted from our apartment." He explained.
"Oh, I understand, my dog, Guess, was killed because she had an illness. Plus, she bit me and gave me rabies." I said.
"Kaylee, can I ask you something?" Squid asked.
"Sure anything." I replied.
