A Girl at Camp Greenlake
Chapter 4
Gabby woke up the next morning from the sound of a very loud buzzer going off from a speaker outside the tent. She looked over to the bed next to her and saw that ZigZag was getting up to. She smiled. I want one… She thought.
She looked around and realized that all of the boys had begun to get undressed. She felt her cheeks burn red. Oh my god, Oh my god. She thought. Should I get dressed?
She decided to just go for it. She pulled off the top part of the orange thing she had on and immediately felt eyes on her. Thank god I have a bra on. She pulled the entire thing off and very quickly put on the other orange thing she had laid out on her bed. She looked over at ZigZag who was halfway undressed. Excuse me! Is that a six-pack? She thought. "Wow." She whispered to herself, gaping at the boy standing in front of her.
"What was that, Gabby?" He had heard her.
"Nothing…" Her cheeks began to burn again.
"Come on guys let's get digging!" A voice came from the door, Gabby looked over. It was coming from a kind-of scrawny man with geeky glasses. "Oh." He looked at Gabby. "You must be Gabrielle, it's very nice to finally meet you. I'm your counselor, Mr. Pendanski."
"Yes I am."
"Okay, well let's get digging then. Follow me!" He led them outside to a spot where there weren't any holes. Your shovels are over there. He gestured to a cabinet by them. "Well let's go!"
Gabby went and got a shovel and picked the spot next to ZigZag to start digging. Except, she had no idea how to dig a hole. She stuck the end of the shovel into the ground and tried to pull the dirt up. She got some of it, but not very much. She worked like this for an hour or so, getting like an inch of dirt each time she stuck the shovel I the ground. It wasn't just that, it her forever and like 4 jumps on the shovel for it to go into the ground. She looked around and noticed that everyone else had 1/3 of their hole done and she had 5 inches done. This is way too hard! She thought.
She looked at her watch. It was already 8:00 AM. I guess it wasn't an hour or so. She thought. She continued to dig, she was starting to get the hang of it.
She was at 2 ½ feet when a truck pulled up. "Canteen fill ups!" Mr. Sir yelled out of the truck cabin.
"AngelEyes!" X-Ray yelled. "You're right here in line." He pointed to the second to last spot, right I front of Squid.
"AngelEyes?" She asked. Going to her spot.
"I gave you a nickname." He chuckled.
"Right…" She got her canteen filled up and went back to her hole and after a big swig of water, continued digging. She dug for an hour or so when X-Ray stood up and got out of his hole.
"I'm done." He announced. Slowly one by one as time went on, everyone got out of their holes. Leaving just ZigZag and "AngelEyes" alone.
I bet he's taking forever on purpose. She thought. She looked down at his hole. He had just an inch or so left. Good I'll be alone. She looked at her hole, she only had like 4 feet done.
"Need help?" ZigZag jumped out of his hole. "I'm done."
"If your willing to." She laughed. He jumped into her hole and began to help her dig.
"How long are you I here for anyway?" She asked him.
"I have 5 months left. I started out with 12 though." He looked up at her while he was digging.
"I have 18 left. I can't even believe this! We have to dig one of these every day?"
"Yes. Except for on Christmas and stuff like that."
"I have a question for you."
"Hmm?"
"Are you still willing to make it work?"
He looked at her and she looked at him. "Yes." They said together and leaned in for their first kiss.
