I walked out of the tent with Hector by my side. I saw in the distance in line the guys surround Squid, yelling at him. I can see Squid's face. He's looking at the ground, face stern and red. His arms folded and his cap with his towel on his head. He looks up for a mere second and he catches my gaze. I immediantly look the other way, motioning Hector to the library for the shovels.

We both stand in line, Hector a couple of people in front of me. I see some of the other kids from the other tents come into the line. Then I see something wicked. Lump. He has a smirk on his face His michevious eyes are glistening. He's up to something. He probably heard of my punishment and is planning to "Work" with me. Pervert.

Lump gets in line...behind me. I'm stiff and my fists are clenched. Im practically steadying my breath as my nerves take over. I look in the ground and glare, trying not to notice him but I only notice his shadow towering over me.

"Hey." He whispers. My skin crawls and goose bumbs cover my body.

"So, I heard you're staying with me all day tomorrow and the rest of the week, babe. No problem. I have plenty of stuff we can do when we're bored." He chuckles to himself. I grimace in annoyance, thinking about ways I could kick his ass. But I can't.

"Don't worry," Lump bends down a little and puts his hands on my shoulders. I jump when he touches me and fear begins to wash over. ", HE won't get in the way. No, I'll have you all to myself." Lump nods his head towards Squid. I can see him, all the way up front about to get his shovel and breakfast. I hung my head.

Lump begins to make his hands down my back. I was about to turn around and slap him across the face but, with his one sweaty hand, he grabs both of my wrists and holds them behind my back.

"OOOOOOH, you like it rough, don't ya? Don't need to tell me twice." he laughs in my ear.

*CLANK*

I fell to my knees and shut my eyes. I slowly opened them. Lump was on the floor, passed out with a giant bloody bruise on his temple. Boys are coming over, surrounding us. I look up and to my right.

Squid was holding a shovel, like a baseball bat, and panting. He was staring down at Lump,his face of pure anger and hatred.

"What in tar nation is going on here?!" Mr. Sir comes running along with Mom.

He looks back and forth between Squid and Lump. Mr. Sir turns to mom. "Assign Lump to car-washing duty. He's becoming a huge problem."

"Yes, Mr. Sir."

"oh, and tell Alan here that, starting tomorrow until the end of the week that he has kitchen duty."

With me.

"That's fine with me, Mr. Sir." Squid sticks his shovel in the ground and leans on it, looking a little pleased

"Well, then, good. Builds character." Mr. Sir and Mom walk off, leaving Lump on the ground surrounded by his friends, splashing water on his face.

"C'Mere." Squid pukks me by my arm to the front of the line and gets me a shovel. The rest of the D-tent, who have already gotten their shovels, surround me as to protect me.

We go over to get our honey-covered tortillas. After I got mine, i see Squid stick his out to me. He doesn't say anything. He's just looking at me in an apologetic look and is offering me his tortilla.

"Sorry." He mumbles. This stuns me. I'm wide-eyed. I look back and forth between squid and the tortilla. I shake my head.

I grab his hand, lay it flat and put my tortilla on top of his. He looks at me like I'm crazy.

"Eat it. As a thank-you and as a sorry. Sorry for being a burden and you always having to help me. Sorry."

He furiously shakes his head. "No, I shouldn't eat this. A girl should. Just eat mine."

"Just eat it, dammit." I say to Squid. This is the first time I gave squid my sass ON PURPOSE. He is in shock.

I walk off, shovel in hand. I leave Squid to eat his tortilla.

nope. I'm good :) nothing to say except people were VERY surprised with my hangover thingy with Squid being very hurtful. dun Dun DUNNNNN! TWIST!

Yeah. Boom. Bam. Hot damn. Ha!
