Chapter # 2 – New….friends…?
Ella and Tibby sat quietly at the edge of Ella's cot. The boys sitting on Zigzag's cot, which was beside Ella's. Staring at them intently.
"So, what do you chicas want to do?" Magnet asked
"Duno, what do you guys usually do?" Tibby quietly replied
The boys glanced at each other and then back at Tibby and Ella
"Um, I think we should just stay here for now. Until the Warden gets around telling the other guys you're here, of course. It wouldn't be very smart to leave until then." Squid noted
"Well then, what do you muffins do when you're stuck inside the tent?" Ella asked enthusiastically
"We play POKER!" Armpit yelled
"Strip?" Ella teased, knowing it'd make Tibby nervous
"El!" Tibby blushed
"Geez, girl! Why are you so sensitive on subjects like that! We talk about that type of stuff all the time!" X-ray demanded
"Uh-oh…not a good idea, X" Ella warned, knowing what Tibby'd do next
Well, she didn't really do anything. Right away. She just kind of sat there on the bed beside Ella, staring at the floor while everyone else was staring at her, wondering what she was going to do. Then, out of nowhere, Tibby started to ball her eyes out, than she ran out of the tent.
"Aww! Tibbs!" Ella called after her, glaring at X-ray
"Oh, way to go man. You made the girl cry!" Zigzag slapped him upside the head
"Yeah, X. Way to go." A couple other boys murmured
A few minutes later Ella re-entered the tent with Tibby. The two girls walked over
To Tibby's cot and sat down. Ella, being the good friend that she is, wrapped her
Arm around Tibby to comfort her;
"Chill, Tibbs. They didn't know…" the boys heard her say, which brought
Questioning looks to their 'oh god what's going on' looking faces.
"I know but…" Tibby's voice trailed off
"Ok, Tibbs, I'm going to go talk to them. Maybe you should take a nap or
Something." Ella suggested
"Um, alright. Are you going to tell them?" she asked
"Do you want me to?"
"You better, ya know, just incase." Tibby replied
"Alrighty Tibbs." And with that, Ella walked back over to the boys as Tibby laid down under her covers.
"What…what's going on?" Squid asked
"Well, Tibby is sensitive on that subject because of something that happened to her…ya know…something like THAT….that wasn't voluntary." Ella tried to avoid saying the exact words, thankfully the boys weren't totally toasted (A/N - meaning burnt, stoner-like, stupid…ya get the picture).
"Omigosh. Seriously?" was the reply that came from most of them. Ella nodded.
"Yeah, that's part of the reason I'M even here. I was heading over to Tibbs' house and since I'm like their second daughter, her parents said I don't have to knock or ring. So, I walked in and started up to Tibbs' bedroom. I heard her screaming. No one else was home, except for Tibbs and the person who…well, ya know. I went into her parents' room and got a gun off the hook behind their door. I entered Tibbs' room and saw it; she motioned for me to shoot the guy. So, I did." Ella breathed
"You SHOT someone?" Zigzag asked wide-eyed
"Yeah." Oh, great. Now Ella was about to…Oops, forget about to. Now, Ella was crying.
"Oh, El. I'm sorry." Zigzag hugged her
"Aw, muffin don't be. It's not your fault. Only mine. I just feel so horrible, I friggen KILLED someone, and I'm still alive. I shouldn't be. I did something so horrible!" she sobbed heavily.
They didn't really know what to do, except gather around and hug this nearly strange girl while she cried. Ella had only been there an hour or so, but she felt like it had been so long already.
"Um, El?" Ella whipped away from the guys to see Tibby standing there, all puffy eyed and red from crying. She hugged her tight and said; "It's my entire fault you're here! It's my fault you have to be stuck in this hell hole!"
"No, no Tibbs! I could've ran for help. Don't go blaming youself. Here, go hang out with Squid (see, Ella knew that Tibby thought he was hot, and, well, since he'd offered to take her around she guessed that he thought the same 'bout Tibby)."
"'kay" Tibby sniffed, taking squids arm and pulling him out the door
"Woo! This has been a long day!" Zigzag blew a lock of crazy blonde hair of his forehead
Well, sugar this is only the beginning
