Part 14: A Sad Goodbye
[MAKE SURE YOU DIDN'T SKIP CHAPTER 13! THIS IS CHAPTER 14!]
[did you make sure?]
[you sure?]
[absolutely sure?]
[alright I'll stop annoying you and let you read. lol! I'm just making SURE you didn't skip chapter 13 because I posted both of these in one day and you might think this is the next chapter.]
When it started to get late, Becky fell asleep on Magnet's shoulder. She didn't participate in the mess the other boys made of the bus. They crumpled up paper and through it through the air, they opened bags of chips, spilled crumbs, and then just threw the bags on the ground.
Squid was laying on his back, his legs lay on the seat across from him. He was staring at the ceiling.
"What'cha thinking about?" said Magnet, twisting around from the seat in front of him.
"I was just thinking about how we're finally leaving." he answered, not taking his eyes of the ceiling.
"Yeah. Never thought it was possible." said Magnet.
The bus driver turned up the radio, and a female band song started playing. Becky suddenly woke up. 'I love this song!" she said, sitting up.
"Man, you could be sound a sleep and you would wake up straight away if you heard a song you liked, even if it wasn't even loud." said x-ray.
"Yep. That's me. And DON'T call me a man." she said, then she started to sing.
"Is this Michelle Branch again?" asked Twitch.
"Nope. It's Lillix."
"Oh."
*
The bus finally stopped. Millions of cars were in the parking lot, and millions of parents stood, anxiously waiting for their baby boy (or girl) to come off the bus. Magnet took Becky's hand. "Come on." he said.
(Magnet's supposed to speak a little spanish, right? Well, I'm taking french so I donno what to make him say lol! I'll just say it in english. lol!)
"Mom! Dad! I'd like you to meet someone." said Magnet, talking Becky towards his family.
His mother and father made faces. "I thought this was a boy's camp, Jose!" said his father.
"It was! Look, it's a long story. The Warden stole money from the G.S. Camp and made it look like Becky did it so she would be sent to camp Greenlake, because she was the great-great-grandniece of Kissing Kate Barlow." he explained. Their faces turned into surprise.
"No? Well, you have a very legendary great-greataunt there, don't you?" said his father. Becky just grinned alittle and nodded. You know how she came be. Very shy.
"So, is this the girl you've been dating at 3 o'clock in the morning?" said his mother, grinning. Both Magnet and Becky looked taken aback.
"Becky's grandfather sent us a letter about it." said his father.
"How did he know?" asked Magnet, and Becky coughed alittle. Magnet turned to her.
"Oh....yeah...." he said. Becky grimaced alittle.
"Well, it's very nice to meet you." said his mother quickly, sticking out a hand. Becky shook it.
*
"You don't need to meet my parents if you don't want to!" Becky said, sounding panicky.
'Of course we want to meet your parents!" said Magnet. The rest of the guys from D-tent were with them. "It's not like they embarrass you. right?"
"Well, no, but......"
Too late.
But it wasn't her parents that came up. It was her grandfather and her grandmother, and a younger girl around seven, and an older brother about 28. They all had a resemblance of Kissing Kate, thought with her grandparents you couldn't really tell anymore.
"Hey, boys! Jason, Michelle, this is D Tent." said her grandfather. The older boy and the younger girl shook hands with each of the boys. The grandma hugged all of them like they were her own. Michelle, the younger sister, started tugging on Becky's shirt.
"WHICH ONE'S MAGNET? WHICH ONE'S SQUID?" She said loudly. Becky tried to quiet her down. Some of the boys laughed alittle. Becky rolled her eyes in an annoyed sort of way.
"Becky's told us so much about you boys!" said her grandmother, then she leaned towards Becky. "Which ones are Magnet and Squid, anyway?"
Jason, the older boy, stepped toward them. 'Let me see if I can guess, if she won't tell us." he said, then he studied them for a few seconds. "That's definitely Magnet. Are you Squid?" he said, pointing to one of them.
"Yep!" said Squid.
"You're X-ray, you're Zigzag, you must be Armpit, you're Twitch-"
Twitch had been staring at Becky's grandparents' car, and was twitching madly. "Nice car you got there." he said.
*
"So were the parents too busy to pick her up?" asked Zigzag. The family suddenly went quiet. Becky looked at her feet. Squid punched Zigzag in the arm.
"Ow! What?"
"No, it's quite alright. I take it Becky hasn't told you...." said her grandfather, giving Becky a look.
"Tell us what?"
"Well, er, her parents died, quite a while ago." he said, alittle uncomfortably.
"Oh."
There was a small silence.
"THERE YOU ARE ALAN!" suddenly came a woman's voice shouting. Squid groaned. A tall woman came stomping over to them.
"We have been waiting for a long time for you, Mr. where have you been? Now get over here this instant!" she shouted rudely. Squid avoided everyone's eyes, and said, "Yes, mother." then he headed over to her, looking very embarrassed, and alittle upset.
Becky just stared after him for a while, then she suddenly shouted, "Wait!"
"What now?" said Squid's mother.
Squid turned around to her, with a "take me home with you!" kind of look.
"I..... I wanted to say goodbye." she said. A small "eep" came from Michelle as she watched them, waiting to see what was going to happen.
"Make it quick." said the lady. Squid avoided her eyes.
"I'm gonna miss you.. a lot.... do you have AIM?"
"Yeah."
"Here's my sn. Right when you get home go on I'll surly be on and we can talk. Alright?" she seemed to talk all in a rush.
"Alright." he said, taking the paper she wrote on. Then she surprised him as she kissed him on the cheek. Michelle shrieked happily, then Jason covered up her mouth.
"Bye." she said.
"Bye." he turned and left with his mother.
There was a small silence.
"I don't like his mother much." said Armpit, breaking it.
"Yeah." Becky headed back to them, no longer as happy as she was a few minutes ago.
*
Almost all the D Tent boys were gone, and they all had Becky's AIM sn. It was a very sad moment. Then it was Magnet's turn to leave.
"I.... I can't believe we're leaving." said Becky, putting her arms around him sadly.
"Me neither." said Magnet. "We'll have to have a big party sometime so all of us will have an excuse to come over."
"Yeah. How's next month?"
"We'll discuss it on AIM."
"Alright."
They stood their, holding eachother for quite awhile.
"Becky, dear, we've got to leave son! Can you speed it up a bit?" shouted Michelle.
"Brat." muttered Becky.
They kissed goodbye, and slowly two people started to appear behind them. One was black, one was white. One's name was Kate, one's name was Sam. Kate was crying, and Sam was saying something.
"I can fix that." he said softly, and they kissed.
