Chapter 13
"Remember the Plan?" Squid asked Caveman as the two boys stood in the wreck room after dinner.
"Yes, of Course… would ya stop asking me that?" Caveman said back.
"Sorry, it's just I don't want anything to go wrong coz I'll make a fool of myself in front of Baby," Squid explained.
Caveman looked at Squid suspiciously, "Why would you care if you made a fool of yourself in front of Baby?"
Squid blushed scarlet, "No reason! Just concentrate on waiting for X ray to give you the signal," Caveman nodded and continued to watch X ray who was standing beside a torn sofa with a small wooden box hidden behind his back.
Baby and Piglet sat on the sofa, chatting away, unaware of X ray hovering behind them.
X ray opened the lid of the box and peeked inside. He looked across the room towards Squid and Caveman who were watching closely.
He nodded slightly.
That was the signal.
"Baby!" Squid called across the room.
Baby looked up to see who had called her. "What?" she called back to Squid.
"Come over here a second!" he said.
"I'll be back in a minute Piglet," Baby said getting up off the faded sofa.
She walked across the room to Squid.
"Watch this," Squid said to Baby, pointing towards Piglet.
X ray had opened the lid of the box and a lizard had clambered out onto the sofa, right next to Piglet's knee.
Piglet looked down and saw a blur of green, she screamed and stood up on the sofa.
"IT'S GOING TO BITE ME!" she started shrieking.
Baby went to run forward but Squid grabbed her wrist and pulled her back.
"What are you doing Squid!" Baby gasped, still trying to run towards Piglet, "Some one's got to help her!"
"The Lizards not dangerous," Squid said steadily, his strong arm across Baby's tiny waist holding her back, "Just watch," He nodded curtly at Caveman who's eye's widened slightly.
"Here goes nothing," Caveman said under his breath.
Caveman ran towards Piglet.
"HELP ME!" Piglet started screaming as the lizard climbed onto her foot.
Caveman grabbed the Lizard off Piglet's foot. He held it at arms- length before putting it outside the door of the wreck room.
Piglet was gasping for breath from all that screaming. She unsteadily climbed off the sofa.
She suddenly flung her arms around Caveman and hugged him really tight.
"Oh My God, thank you!" She gasped, "You saved me!"
Caveman's cheeks flushed red, "Well… well…it was no.. problem," he stuttered.
"You are so brave!" Piglet exclaimed, clinging onto him as if her life depended on it.
Baby and Squid stood at the other side of the Rec room, watching the two teenagers before them.
Baby's mouth was open in surprise, she was really confused.
What the hell is going on here?
Squid let go of her and she looked up at him.
"Now, that's what you call match- making…" he said proudly…
This Chapter was a bit shorter than the rest, sorry, but I'm having a bit of writer's block, so any ideas would be good.
Thank you sooooooo much to everyone who has reviewed, I really, really appreciate it.
