There's a BIG question in my author's note at the bottom so PLEASE read it and answer it in a review or a private message!
I wake up to the trumpet playing. I look under me to see Squid waking up.
"Mornin'."He whispers.
"Morning."I whisper back.
"Why're you two in the same bed?"X-Ray asks noticing our state.
"Um...no reason."I say getting off of Squid.
"Hmm."X-Ray says walking away.
I pull on my jumpsuit and put my hair in a side braid. Arms snake around my waist once I'm done.
I look up to see Squid with his signature toothpick.
"I wanna talk to you after we're done digging."I say.
"Okay."He says kissing my cheek.
He lets go and ZigZag glares at us.
I finish digging and I go over to Squid's hole.
"Want some help?"I ask. He looks up and smiles.
"Sure."He says.
I jump into his hole and help him finish. Once we're done,we walk back to camp.
"I'm gonna shower and when I'm done,we'll talk."I say. He nods.
I grab my bathing suit and stare at it.
"What's wrong?"Squid asks.
"I'm not changing in front of you!"I say.
Squid rolls his eyes before turning around. I quickly change into my bathing suit.
"Done."I say.
He turns and smiles.
"Go shower,Girlie."He says kissing my forehead.
"But if some guy tries to make a move on ya',yell and I'll kick their butt for ya'."He says.
"Okay."I smile before I leave.
I shower and make it back to the tent without being confronted about anything.
I walk in the tent and see Squid in the same spot the I left him in.
"You can go ahead and shower if ya' want."I say sitting down.
"Okay but after that,we are talking."He says grabbing some shower tokens.
"Okay."I say as he leaves.
I sigh and change into my orange jumpsuit.
I sit on Squid's cot and think. How am I gonna ask him?
Squid comes in and sits by me.
"Okay,so what'd you want to talk about?"He asks.
"Um... you know how you saved me last night and ever since then you've been kissing my cheek and forehead and stuff?"I ask.
"Yeah."He says.
"Well,do you like me or something?"I ask.
"Well... yeah."He answers with a smile.
"Good 'cause I like you too."I say.
"Why've you been mean to me the past couple of days then?"I ask. He sighs.
"Well,I didn't like how you were spending time with ZigZag. I knew something wasn't right about you two so...I tried to send you a hint but it didn't work,I guess."He says.
"You could've just told me."I say taking his hand.
"You're real cute,ya' know."He says.
I smile before we hug.
I pull away and give him a light kiss. He makes it more passionate as he wraps his arms around my waist.
He pulls me as close to him as he can. Soon he lays me down onto his cot before getting on top of me. I pull away and he looks worried.
"Considering last night was the third time I've nearly been raped,I don't feel comfortable doing this."I say.
"Understood."He says getting off of me and helping me up.
"So,does this make us...boyfriend and girlfriend?"I ask.
"Yeah."He says.
"Guys!The new kid..."X-Ray starts as he and the rest of D tent come in.
He's stopped by Mine and Squid's position with Squid's arms around my waist and mine around his neck.
"Are you two together?"Armpit asks.
"Yeah."I say.
I look at everyone's expressions.
X-Ray and Armpit have approving looks,Magnet has a happy look,Stanley has a depressing look(All 'cause of Zero running away),and ZigZag is glaring at us.
"So,what were you saying X-Ray?"Squid asks.
"Oh yeah!The new kid is here."X-Ray says.
"Oh...Okay!"I say.
We then wait for the new kid.
Brian sits at the dinner table,fidgeting and staring at any new noise or face.
"So what you in here for Twitch?"X-Ray asks Brian. The kid already has a nickname because of how he fidgets all the time.
He glances up,his fingers tapping on the wooden table.
Twitch laughs
"Joy ridin',I guess I never really planned on stealing one or nothing,but when I walked past a really nice car,Oooh,I just start twitching,you know. Oh,you think I'm jumpy now,you should of seen me behind the wheel of that Mustang convertible. Whoo."Twitch says.
Squid glares at him. It's not that Twitch is bad but when we first met,he said something that nearly got him killed!
I sit with Squid on his cot. His arms are around my shoulders and he's kissing the top of my head or my forehead.
The guys are doing various things around the tent. X-Ray,Armpit,and Magnet were talking.
ZigZag was sitting on his cot still glaring at Squid and I. Stanley was sitting on his cot staring at Zero's old one.
Dr. Pendanski walks in with a twitching kid.
"Guys,this is Brian."Dr. Pendanski says.
"Yo mom!Is the kid havin' a seizure or somethin'?"X-Ray asks.
"I just have a little twitch."Brian says.
"Well I'm X-Ray,and that's Armpit,Magnet,Caveman,ZigZag,Squid and..."I cut X-Ray off.
"And I'm Angel."I say getting up from beside Squid.
Brian's eyes go wide when he see's I'm a girl.
"Hey beautiful."He says winking at me.
I look down and blush.
Squid gets up and is about to punch Brian when I grab his arm.
I turn him around and kiss him. His anger turns to burning passion. The guys all groan.
"Stop!"They all groan.
When Squid and I finally pull away,everyone is gone.
"You made them leave!"I say.
"Whatever ya' say,Girlie."He says giving me another kiss.
Mr. Sir drives the water truck up to where we're digging.
"C'mon Twitch,let's go."Zigzag calls getting out of his hole.
"Twitch!Come get some water."X-Ray says walking over to Mr. Sir.
"First hole's the hardest."Stanley says helping Twitch out of his hole.
I stare at them as they go to the truck door. Something's up.
I stop staring when Magnet and Squid start their daily argument about the water line.
"Squid!Stop!"I try to get him away from the argument.
Then,Mr. Sir's truck starts. I look in the front seat to see Stanley.
"Go on,go on!Put it in gear!"Twitch tells Stanley.
Stanley starts driving the truck. Mr. Sir runs after him while grabbing hold of the open window frame. The truck drags him.
"You stop this truck!"Mr. Sir yells while waving his arms in front of Stanley's face.
Stanley drives past a hole and Mr. Sir is thrown into it.
D tent and I all laugh.
"Goodbye Camp Green Lake!"Stanley yells before he drives into a hole.
"My truck!"Mr. Sir yells.
We all run to the truck as Stanley gets out of it and starts running...
"You've done it now!You've done it now!Keep running!There ain't gonna be no Yelnats the fifth!"Mr. Sir yells to him.
"Get away from my truck!"Mr. Sir yells while pushing us away from his truck.
Okay,here's the BIG question...Should I make a sequel when this story is over? I'll need ideas so PLEASE review or private message me with a yes or no and if you say yes,please give me an idea!
I have an idea where Angel and Squid live together after their let out of Camp Green Lake and Squid is put into a coma and Angel calls the rest of D tent to help her find his father. Please tell me what ya' think and give me an 'I should do a sequel' or an 'I shouldn't' in the review box(or private message)and if it's a yes,tell me what ya thought of my idea and/or give me an idea! Thanks:)
