A very loud horn blasted and made Grace jump and fall off her bed. She heard someone laugh. She looked up and saw Zig-Zag, Armpit, and X-Ray standing there....laughing.
"Oh...Shut-up!" she said.
They stopped instantly. They didn't expect her to talk back like that. One day, I'll get them....bad. They'll never treat me bad again. Grace thought to herself.
Evan walked over and gave them the evil eye and helped Grace to her feet.
"Are you okay?" he asked.
She nodded.
"Guess what?" he asked her.
"What?" she asked.
"Timmy, Courtni, Jose, and Hannah have already started their hole." he said.
"What do you mean?" she asked.
"Mr. Pendanski said that they could start earlier so they didn't have to be out in the sun all day." he said.
"Really? I'm surprised." she said.
"I know! Well, hopefully they can do that every morning." he said.
"Yeah." she said and Evan kissed her on her forehead.
"Everything's going to be alright." he said.
She smiled. She loved feeling the comfort and security from Evan. He was so sweet to her all the time.
Evan and Grace walked out of the tent, hand in hand, to eat their breakfast. All of the D-Tent boys were there already, yawning and stretching. Squid had his arm around Charm's shoulder.
The food was a disgusting looking tortilla, dripping in grease.
Evan handed her a tortilla. Grace held out a hand.
"Uh, she clears her throat I think I'll pass on this, thanks." she said.
"Me too." Evan said.
Evan and Grace saw the 4 younger kids coming back from digging their hole.
"Hey kids! How was your hole?" Evan asked them.
Jose shook his head, they were all breathing hard.
Evan nodded.
"We're in for a long day, Grace." he said.
Grace sighed and reached for a shovel from the shed. She looked up and saw "Library" written at the top.
Just then, Grace was pushed hard onto the ground. She landed on her wrist and it felt like she pulled a muscle.
"Aaah." she said. Dirt went in her eyes and nose. She sneezed.
Then next thing she knew, Evan was standing smack dab in front of X-Ray, his face right up in X's.
"Who do you think you are?" Evan yelled.
"Uh, I believe my name is X-Ray." X said.
Evan pushed X-Ray, making him almost fall to the ground.
Grace jumped up and ran to Evan, standing between him and X-Ray. She grabbed his hand and pulled him away from X-Ray.
"Evan. I appreciate it when you stick up for me, but not when it has something to do with you getting hurt." she said.
He nodded and smiled.
"I just hate it when people try to hurt or embarrass you. You're dealing with enough already." he said.
"Thank you Evan." she said. By now, everyone was staring at them.
"Grace. You never want to take X-Ray's shovel. It's smaller than all of the other shovels." Magnet said, sweetly.
Then Squid came up to Grace. "Smaller shovel.....smaller hole." he said, smiling. Evan gave him the look.
X-Ray threw a shovel down at her feet. Evan picked it up and gave it to Grace. Then Mr. Pendanski started talking.
"Everybody have their shovels? Alright, then get to work." he said.
Evan and Grace looked confused.
"And for those of you who have no clue whatsoever about where and how to dig your hole, listen up!" he said.
"Follow these campers," he said, pointing to all if the D-Tent boys," because they will show you where to dig. Now, you grab your shovel, stick it in the ground, and pull up on the shaft. You will then have a pile of dirt inside the shovel. Dump that somewhere outside your hole and repeat the process." he said.
X-Ray and Armpit thought it was funny how Mr. P. made Evan and Grace look stupid.
Squid and Charm looked mad. So did Caveman and Zero. Zig-Zag was just looking around frantically for any lizards, tarantulas, or scorpions.
"Any questions?" he asked, trying to act like a real counselor.
Evan and Grace shook their heads and started following the other boys and girl.
The Hole
They had to walk a long way. They were still walking when the sun started rising.
"Hey....Grace!" Squid called as he started walking over to her, with Charm.
"I'm sorry about back there. They're jerks. He did that to me and Charm when we first came here." he said.
"Oh...thanks Squid." she said.
Caveman and Zero said the same thing. "If you guys need any help, me and Zero will be happy to show you." Caveman said. Zero nodded.
"Thanks guys." she said. They started walking back towards Squid and Charm.
"Actually........Zero! Caveman!" Grace called.
"Yeah?" Zero asked.
"Uh...well...how hard was it to dig your first hole?" she asked.
"It gets easier." Zero said.
"I guess that means it's hard to dig?" Grace asked Evan after Zero and Caveman left.
"Yeah I guess so." he said.
Time passed. Everybody got older. Hannah and Timmy ended up liking each other. For some reason, their sentence at Camp Green Lake didn't last long and they got to go home. They are now living at Timmy's house with his parents.
But Courtni.......she had to stay 4 years longer, along with Evan, Grace, and Jose.
The Warden made them stay longer. Who knows why.
Now, Evan and Grace are 16 years old. Courtni and Jose are 13 years old. Squid and Charm just celebrated their 16th birthday together, even if their birthdays are 1 week apart. X-Ray, Armpit, Caveman, and Zig-Zag are 18 years old. Zero is 16.
4 Years Later
Evan and Grace were once again out on the dry wasteland. Digging their hole for the umpteenth time. Zero was still the fastest digger of all, but Grace and Evan were getting pretty good. They were already digging faster than all of the other D-Tent campers.
Now, X-Ray wasn't so tough. He was the slowest digger. He wasn't even the leader of the tent anymore.
Evan was...
