Heart full of Holes
'Why me? Huh? Oh yeah! I decided I wanted to be a convict!'
She always thought on the brighter side of things but lately she didn't and it was starting to scare her and she wanted to know why she had to be the one who always had to be happy.
Name? Her name was Ferrin and she was an interesting character. She was a Shakespeare fanatic and she loved Dickens, J. K. Rowling, J. R. R. Tolkein and she loved several different animes but she was mostly very happy and kept up with all the dates and politics. She was also a pyro and a person who had an extreme temper, and a person you didn't want to get mad all too badly.
For what she looked like, about 5"3 , 15 years old , blonde hair, blue eyes and rosy cheeks. She wore a pair of thick rimmed glasses on her nose. She was very pretty and she had her own style and grace. Even when she was playing with fire!
Outside the window was nothing. Literally! All there was dirt and oh! A bunch of holes.
"I guess this Camp Green Lake isn't all its cracked up to be?" she said heartedly to the security guard who was escorting her.
All he did was grunt in recognition that she was there.
"Great I hope I'm not going to be stuck with stiffs all the 6 months I'm going to be here." she thought.
The bus pulled up to a building and she stepped out into the valiant sun and realized it was going to be this hot, all the time. A man started to walk towards her and he wasn't all too good looking.
"My name is Mr. Sir and I expect to be called by it!" he said in an even less sexy, croaky, hoarse voice.
"Ya, ok whatever." she mumbled.
" What was that? This is no boy, I mean girl scouts camp. There are no cookies and such. You will shower with the boys and sleep with the boys and dig with the boys."
'How wonderful, I get to stay with a bunch of delinquent boys.. Joy!' she kept thinking.
"This is what you will be wearing at your stay at Camp Green Lake." He pulled out 2 ugly , orange body suits and handed them to her. "There is one for recreation and one for diggin. You will be digging a hole everyday, it will build your character, and it will be 5 feet tall and 5 feet deep, your shovel is the right length so you go wide and tall, then you are done for the day."
Mr. Sir took a step out of the warehouse so that Ferrin could get changed. She wore a white tank top and a black bra, just in case some of the boys wanted to get smart. She put her 'recreation wear' on half way and tied the arms around her waist to be used as a belt. She stepped out of the warehouse and took in a deep breath. This wasn't much, but it was sorda home. Mr. Sir took her on a tour and then took her where she would be showering, but another man, skinny and tanned with a bit of sunscreen on his nose started talking to Ferrin.
"And I'm Mr. Pandanski and I will be your counsellor, let me show you to D- tent where you will be staying." He had the biggest smile on his face.
"Ferrin just looked at him like he was an alien. ' What is right about that? He has a constant smile on his face, obviously and that is really creepy. Might as well follow anyways…' she thought.
"Now don't be scared by any of the boys now Miss. Anthony. They may be mean but they mean no harm. But if they ever try to touch you without asking, you can always come to me." He said as he wiped the smile off his face for a second, "Now to introduce you to them."
They stepped into the tent and there was 7 beds, all of them lay on them but one, in the corner. The boys lifted their heads and smiled as they all checked her out. Ferrin was getting used to guys staring at her but she still didn't know what to make of it. ' do they think I'm ugly? Is that why they are staring at me? or do they thing I'm really pretty?' was what was running through her head at that point.
"Now listen boys Miss. Anthony does not want to be your pet, so treat her nice. Now for introductions,"
"Nah Mom let us." a boy with glasses stood up from his bed and told Mr. Pandanski.
"Ok fine. But I got to go and do counsellor stuff." and with that Mr. Pandanski left the tent and left poor Ferrin to her doom.
Ferrin looked up from the ground and stood there, waiting. The silence was defining, she actually thought she went deaf as she stood there being stared at. Then…
"Well I have had enough of this. My name is X-ray, this is Armpit pointing at the large boy sitting on a sinking cot., Zig Zag pointing at skinny boy with blonde , curly hair that stuck out, and blue eyes who was very good looking., Squid pointing to a tan medium muscular boy sitting on his cot who was not bad looking, Caveman a curly brown haired boy who seemed , out of place, like he didn't belong in Camp Green Lake, too innocent and this sad little boy pointing at a smaller boy who wore an afro with chocolate brown eyes and he too seemed too cute to be in this place is Zero." the kid with the glasses that were coated in dirt explained to her. "This will be your cot, and well I guess I can say on behalf of us all," turning and nodding his head at all the boys who nodded in reply. "Welcome to Camp Green Lake."
