"You know what I just noticed?" I asked
"What?" Rex asked
"You just called Ricky Zig. You haven't called any of the guys by their nicknames since you got here."
"Oh yah! I remember when we were looking at the markings that had your names carved in, and I asked why Magnet was named Magnet. Why are you called Magnet?" Sam looked at him
"What do you think the reason is?" He asked back
"I don't know! We were joking around thinking that you were a babe magnet but from the looks of it you really aren't!" Sam said with a smile on her face
"Are you serious? Wow you girls are creative. That's not the real reason."
"Really? I would have never guessed!"
"How come you're called Magnet, Jose?" I looked at him seriously
"My touch is so light, I could steal your underwear and you'd never even feel it!" He explained to us
"Try it." I challenged him
"Alright, I will." He looked me straight in the eye. Then he walked up to me and snatched the water bottle I was holding, and ran. He ran and I ran after him. He not that fast of a runner, or he just wasn't trying because I caught up to him easier than I had expected. I jumped on his back and he kept running.
"Give me the water bottle!" I whined
"Get it." He then dropped me and chucked it out towards the holes. Then it exploded. We saw water flying everywhere. I hit him across the head and started laughing.
"Idiot." Is all I had to say to him. He was laughing along with the rest of them who had followed. "Stop laughing and go get me another one." I jumped on Sam's back.
"Get off of me! It's so hot!" she complained, then she threw me off of her. I landed on Squid. Well I didn't actually land on him, I sort of fell and he caught me so I didn't injure my back side anymore.
"Thank you!" I grabbed his hat and bolted out in to the land of holes. "I'm in the land of holes! The land of holes! That sounds so stupid! But then again I am pretty stupid!" I started laughing. I was quite hyper today.
"I am not going to disagree." Squid/Alan stopped running after me and grabbed the hat. He was the only one who came after me, which was kind of surprising considering they all followed to last time. I looked back to where we were standing and they were all heading to the Wreck Room. "Losers!" I yelled at them
"Don't be so mean!" Alan/Squid told me.
"Squid, Alan, whatever your name is, why is your nickname Squid?"
"That's a story I would rather not get into."
"Why not?"
"Because."
"Because what?"
"Because I don't want to."
"Why don't you want to?"
"Because!"
"Why?"
"Will you shut up!"
"No!"
"Please!"
"Why?"
"Don't start!"
"Start what?" I was really testing his patience
"Holy shit!"
"What's holy—." He covered my mouth.
"Don't say another word."
"Then just tell me." I tried to say under his hand.
"What?"
"Tell me!" I still attempted. He didn't take his hand off of my mouth.
"Huh?" Oh he wanted to die! I licked his hand, which I still don't think was a good idea. He squealed and pulled his hand away from my face
"That was so gross!" he had a disgusted look on his face. Then it turned into a smirk
"What are you smirking about?"
"You don't know where my hand has been?"
"What?" I shouted
"There are so many places and things it could have touched."
"You have got to be joking. Please don't tell me it's what I'm thinking it is." And he knew exactly what I was talking about, and he nodded, only to piss me off. "You're lying to me."
"No I'm not."
"I think I'm going to be sick." I walked over to one of the holes. I seriously felt sick.
"I'm just joking. Relax." I looked up and glared at him.
"For that you have to tell me why your nickname is Squid."
"Because I have a stuffed octopus."
"Aw! Squidly!"
"What did you call me?"
"Squidly."
"That's weird. The guys used to call me that."
"That's retarded."
"Yah."
"So you sleep with a stuffed animal?" I started laughing. Little did anyone know I did too. The next thing I knew I was on the ground. Squid was on top of me because when he tackled me he fell over too. "Get off of me!" I complained. Then I felt him plant his lips on mine. I was not expecting that. I kind of got caught in the moment, then I realized that was going on and I didn't know what to do. I just waited until the kiss was done. Then I looked at him and was confused about what just happened.
"Sorry." He said, "I have been wanting to do that for a little while now."
"Does everyone in our tent know? Is that why they didn't come?"
"No I wasn't even expecting that to happen."
"Uh. Ok." I didn't know what else to say. He rolled over and lay flat on his back
"Sorry." He said again
"Why are you saying sorry?"
"I don't know."
"Ok then." Then we just lay on our backs and looked up at the sky. I wanted to look at the clouds but there weren't many in the sky.
We eventually got up and walked back to camp. I almost fell asleep in the middle of the holes and when Squid finally realized that I was almost sleeping, he nudged me and said that we should get back to camp. The dinner bell was about to ring.
We walked into the Mess Hall just as the bell rang. We sat in our usual spots, me on one side, Squid across from me. I was waiting for the rest of the tent to come before I got my food. Ally, Zigzag, Rex, and Jess walked into the Mess Hall, and there was no sight of the other two.
"Where are Jose and Sam?" I looked at them curiously
"Who knows. They disappeared like half an hour ago." Zigzag answered me, then he mumbled, "Just like I wanted me and Ally to do." I looked at him apparently being the only one who caught him saying that. He saw me looking at him and he looked at his feet.
"Are we gonna wait for them?" Squid asked. Just as he asked they both walked into the Mess Hall, looking a little out of breathe. "Where have you two been?" Squid raised his eyebrows.
"We were talking." Magnet answered
"Yah okay! You think we're gonna fall for that shit?" I piped in
"It's not shit Joey!" Sam replied
"Whatever Sam. We know something's going on." Ally smiled. There was a slight silence.
"I'm hungry. We shall get into this later on." I broke the silence and headed for the line. Squid followed me, who was followed by Ally, who was followed by Zigzag, who was followed by Sam, Jose, Rex and Jess.
