Morghan was rudely awakened by the bell at 4:30 in the morning. Morghan hated digging. You may wonder why she was digging in the first place but believe me it wasn't by choice just like now. She had gotten into some trouble and her punishment was doing community service at a fossil hunt where she had to dig three foot holes every day and fill them up at the end. It would be a safe assumption to say that she loathes digging with every fiber of her being. What made it even worse was the boys kept staring at her but kept there distance and never talked to her. By lunch Morghan had, had it and demanded answers.
"Alright what's wrong? Why have y'all been avoiding me like the plague?" She asked trying to stay calm.
"Who was the guy you put in the hospital?" Magnet asked
"My ex boyfriend, why does it matter?"
"Well why'd you do it?"
"Listen it's a long story that I don't want to get into now. I may tell you later but I have to trust you guys. Before you get mad about me not trusting you guys that's just how I am. I've been hurt enough that my guard is always up and you have to prove to be trustworthy before it will go down. I will say he was a prick and deserved it."
"He probably just cheated on you." Squid remarked
"Not even close fish boy." Morghan said and went to finish her hole which she was done with a little after Zero.
"How the hell did you do that?"
"I had to dig for community service once so its not that big of a deal. Are we done here? Ok buh-bye." She said and walked back to the tent.
When Morghan go to the tent she saw Zero there. She hadn't talked to him and he hadn't said a word to anyone but Caveman but that was alright with her. She heard some of the other guys saying he was stupid but she didn't think so. She thought he was just shy or a generally quiet person.
"Hey Zero, how's it going?" He didn't answer
"You know I don't think you're stupid." This seemed to shock him but he stayed quiet.
"I don't think there's anything with being quiet or shy. Quiet people observe the most about others. I know its hard to believe but I'm a quiet person most of the time."
"Really?"
"Yeah. I don't have many friends to talk to. I'm the loner at school."
"Thanks."
"No problem buddy. Just know if you ever need someone I'm here. I may not have a lot of friends but the ones I do have know I'm a damn good one."
Morghan went and lay down on her cot and pulled out her Mp3 and started singing 'Cater 2 U' with it. The guys walked in when she was singing and were all stunned at her ability. She looked up at the sudden intrusion.
"Can I help you?"
"Wow chica where'd you learn to sing like that?" Magnet asked
"Nowhere I just do."
"Well I just came up with the perfect nickname, Music." X-Ray announced.
"Cool."
"Good because you're stuck with it even if you don't like it." Morghan smirked and rolled her eyes.
"You want to go to the Wreck room?"
"Nope I'm going to stay here with my good pal Zero."
"Why?"
"Because I can. He happens to be a pretty cool guy. I assumed I had the freedom to pick my own friends seeing as this is a free country right?"
"Alright whatever."
"I'm going to stay here to." Caveman said as the rest of the guys walked out.
"So Caveman why are you here?"
"Well I was accused of stealing a pair of shoes, actually they were Clyde Livingston's but I didn't do it."
"Well how'd you get accused then?"
"I was walking and they fell on me from the sky like they had been tossed of the bridge I was walking by and I picked them up and ran when I heard the sirens."
"Why?"
"Why what?"
"Why run?"
"I don't know."
"You should have left them there and kept walking. Everyone will look at you differently, your parents will be disappointed, and friends will shun you."
"My parents know I didn't do it."
"Well your lucky then. I always disappoint my parents."
"Why?" Zero asked
"Huh?"
"Why do you do things that you know your parents will be disappointed in you for?"
"I don't know. I guess I'm like prone to trouble or something. The thrill of doing some of the things I've done was just amazing at the time and I thought it was all worth it. I never even meant to keep the car. I was just going to drive it and take it back before anyone noticed it was gone but it didn't work out that way. I guess it's fate or something."
"Yeah, fate. You want to go to the Wreck now?"
"Sure I would love to."
