Chapter 17

Baby sat on the sofa in the Rec room feeling rather bored. She couldn't see any one else from D tent in there, she had got up to leave when she saw Magnet walk in. He saw her and went over to her.

"What's wrong with you then, little miss moody?" he asked.

"What! Nothings wrong with me," she said, not all to convincingly.

"Yeah, don't give me that. Pitt's been saying your in a stress," Magnet said, grinning.

"I'm not in a stress!" Baby said irritably.

"See… you are!" Magnet teased.

Baby hit him on the arm, "Shut up," she muttered.

"Ouch," Magnet said, rubbing his arm, "You hurt,"

"No I don't, it's just that your such a wimp!" Baby said, flopping back down on the sofa.

Magnet sat down beside her.

"What you up to then?" he asked, wanting to carry on the conversation.

"Nothing, I'm really bored," Baby said, sighing deeply.

"Same here," Magnet said, getting a packet of gummy bears out his pocket.

"Gummy bear?" he asked, gesturing to the packet.

"Yeah, thanks," Baby took a red one, "Where did you get these from?"

"Swiped them from Mom," Magnet said simply.

"Mom likes gummy bears?" Baby asked, raising her eyebrows.

"Yeah, I know," Magnet said, "He keeps getting gayer everyday," Baby laughed.

"Where's Squid?" Magnet asked.

"Um… dunno," Baby admitted truthfully.

There was a silence, then… "Hey! Why do you assume that I would know where he is?" Baby asked, perhaps a little too defensively.

"Oh, it's just you always seem to be around him," Magnet said, shrugging.

"No, I'm not!" Baby exclaimed.

Magnet laughed, "Stop being so defensive chica, I'm just teasing yer,"

"Yeah, you better be," Baby muttered, grumpily.

Magnet ignored her, "It's just I can't help but notice a little spark between you two," Baby just shrugged wondering if Magnet was still teasing her.

Magnet continued, "But that's only my opinion, I notice these sort of things," Baby didn't answer him, mainly because she wasn't all too sure what to say.

Magnet just began pulling off frayed threads on the sofa.

"Have you fallen out with Piglet?" Magnet asked.

"I think so, why?" Baby said, looking up at Magnet.

"She was saying in the tent about how sorry she is that she was so mean to you," Magnet said.

"Why doesn't she just come say sorry to my face?" Baby asked, still annoyed.

Magnet shrugged.

"I'm still not her friend, she has Chatterbox don't she, that's her new best friend," Baby said bitterly.

"God, chica, you sound like you're a little kid or something," Magnet said, rolling his eyes.

Baby threw him a dirty look.

"Well, if she has a new best friend, then you can have a new best friend too," Magnet said, smiling.

"But who?" Baby said.

"Isn't it obvious chica? Me!" Magnet said, pointing at himself.

"Yeah, ok," Baby said, smiling, "My new best mate is Magnet," Magnet smiled back.

Baby wrapped her blanket tightly around her, she really needed to go toilet so she couldn't sleep. She had held it in for what seemed like hours now and she couldn't hold it in any longer.

She didn't want to leave the tent when it's dark, she was scared in case she stepped on a rattlesnake or something.

But she really needed to go.

She unravelled the blankets from around her and stepped out of her cot.

She crept up to the piece of tent and pushed it aside to get past.

Walking past the cots with the sleeping boys she couldn't help but think how innocent they looked when they are sleeping.

She found it quite hard to believe that these boys where such bad boys as they are made out to be.

She was almost at the entrance of the tent when she heard somebody whisper her name.

She turned round and saw Squid sitting up in his cot.

"What are you doing?" he whispered.

"Oh, I was just gonna go toilet," Baby whispered back.

"Can you hold it in a little while longer, I want to talk to you," Squid whispered, gesturing for her to come sit on his cot.

"I think so," Baby lied through her teeth, she really needed to go, it felt as though her bladder was going to burst.
She went over to his cot and sat down.

"Sorry about going off in a mood in Wreck room," Squid whispered, through the dark Baby could see his brown eyes were wide and he was looking very apologetic.

"Apology accepted," Baby whispered, "but why did you go in a mood in the first place?"

"This might sound stupid but it's because you got that letter," Squid said, he looked a bit embarrassed.

Baby gave him a quizzical look, she still didn't get it.

Squid sighed, "It was from your mum," Baby's confused expression turned to one of realisation. Squid was annoyed that Baby had got a letter from her mum when he doesn't get any from his mum.

"You couldsay I'm jealous," Squid said, shrugging.

Baby wasn't sure what to say.

"Um, ok, I desperately need to go toilet," Baby said, getting up.

Squid nodded but then got up too.

Baby noticed he was just wearing a T-shirt and his boxers.

"I'll walk you to the toilets," he said.

Baby was relieved, she wasn't at all keen on going out there in the dark.

Outside, it was almost pitch black, the only light came from the many stars twinkling overhead.

"That's the only pretty thing about Camp Green Lake… the stars," Baby said, looking up at them.

Squid nodded, he put his arm around her.

When Baby went into the toilets Squid waited outside.

Baby went to walk back to the tent but Squid stopped her. "Let's stay out here for a bit," he said.

"Ok then," Baby said, shrugging her shoulders.

She casually kicked some dust with her shoe.

"Baby," Squid said getting her attention so she would look up.

Squid's pale face shone through the dark. His wavy brown hair was ruffled from sleeping on it. His lips looked so soft, they seemed to beckon Baby closer. Squid took hold of Baby's hand and brought it close to his chest so that she moved closer to him. With his other hand he ran his fingers through her soft blonde hair.

He leaned closer to her so there was barely a gap between the two of them.

His lips got ever closer.

Baby's heart was beating like crazy, finally, it was happening.

"It feels as though I've been waiting so long for this," Squid whispered faintly.

His lips gently touched Baby's and he kissed her tenderly.

Baby had butterflies in her stomach, she felt so dizzy and weak at the knees. She wished this kiss would never end.
But when they drew apart Baby rested her head on Squid's chest, he wrapped his protective arms around her and twirled a strand of her hair around his finger.

Baby couldn't help but have this sense of security whilst he was with her, like everything is ok.

"I love you," Squid said softly, Baby could feel his chest rise and fall as he breathed in and out.

"I love you too…"

Aww, how romantic? lol... Not! I'm crap at writing all the romantic stuff.

I have thought of two very differentendings for this story, so I think it's only fair if the readers chose.

Do you lot want a happy ending or a tragedy ending?

Thankyou sooo much for taking some time to read my story!
