Forrest's POV
Is the Warden an idiot? Why would she want Squid alone with us? Does she want to handle a murder case?
I look at the rest of D-tent. X is smiling, so is Armpit. Zigzag and Magnet are trying not to laugh, but their failing. Squid looks pissed. Chris looks like he wants to say, 'what the hell,' really bad. Zero and Will are digging, silent and stoic.
Dr.Pendanski brings lunch. That makes me very happy.
"Hello doc, you're looking good today" I tell him. I smile.
"Well thank you, Forrest." He smiles back. Idiot.
"You're right Forrest, he does look good. So much better than most of the girls back home."
The good doctor frowns a little. "What?" He says.
"Oh nothing." I say. I grab my food and walk toward Will's hole and Chris follows. When Will sits down, she hits us both the back of the head.
"What was that for!?" Chris asks.
"You both are idiots!" She hisses. "He has a gun!"
"Um, Will, I love that you care and all, but it's like badmouthing the cops. Two-bit does it all the time. Besides, we need to knock these guys down a few pegs," I tell her.
"Yeah, but Two-bit is funny."
"Are you saying we're not funny?" Chris asks.
"Yep." She responds. He hits her playfully. She hits him back and they have a play fight. Chris kisses her and a few people make gagging noises. I laugh.
"I win," Chris declares.
"Come here, I have a secret to tell you." She says and stands up. She walks closer to her hole. He stands up and follows. When he looks down at her, she pushes him in her hole. "I win," she says and sits down next to me. Everyone is laughing, even Squid.
This whole thing is becoming one hell of a party.
