Present 16: LINDSAY
*gasp* "I can't believe I'm finally going to a sleepth over! And you senth a helicopter to get me! That is incredulously cool!" Beth commented excitedly as she exited the aircraft. Enthusiastically she waved at the pilot before quickly withdrawing her hand. Though the spinning rotors were far above her, the short girl didn't want to take any chances.
"Well duh! Your mom and dad's farm is like totally several hours away!" Lindsay replied stepping out of the aircraft as well, carrying Beth's suitcase in one petite hand. "And sleepovers are for makeup, low cal snacks and boys. You sooo need like all 29 hours of day!"
The buxom blonde explained raising four fingers as she counted them off. "Uhh…Lindsay there's only 24 hours in a day." Beth corrected staring at her friend in disbelief. Unlike the heavy sea green coat she wore, the blonde was only dressed in her pink night clothing.
The dark interior of the helicopter had made it hard to see her BFF, but Beth had automatically assumed that Lindsay knew the importance of dressing warmly. As if echoing her thoughts, the blonde shivered.
Almost instantly the large space heaters placed on either side of the long walkway activated blasting balmy air over the pair. Beth could only stare in amazement and Lindsay gasped. "See that's what I mean! We've lost five hours already!"
Beth could only shake her head, listened absently to Lindsay as they continued down the warm path and into the small building. It was there that disaster struck. "Oh this is soooo beyond bad! It's like major bad!" Lindsay wailed gripping her cell phone tightly.
"What isth it?" The pretty blonde sniffed before explaining. "Daddy's straw fur man Angus flattened the limo by tiring them out so Chester is coming instead." Beth scratched her head in confusion. "But that's good right? We're not stuckth, and someone isth coming to get us."
"Yeah but that will totally take forever!" Lindsay whined. Hearing a loud click, the flaxen haired beauty abruptly turned her head. Curiously she watched as her new BFF started to remove a few sheets of paper from her suitcase as well as a something that for some reason she recognized.
"That looks sooo familiar." Beth in turn grinned back showing her braces as she held up a paper bird. "Don't you remember? It's the crane! You know from the origami lesson at the resort."
Lindsay bit her lip and looked thoughtful. Thinking hard she tried to recall the memory. The farm girl shook her head as she proceeded to help her friend remember.
Ezekiel was sitting at a large wooden table intently listening to one of the hotel workers. Every now and then he nodded enthusiastically at the dark haired woman, before fiddling with something in his hand.
The other present campers had tried there best to ignore what was going on at the far end of the pool. One by one though the pool games had stopped as their curiosity became too much. "Alright who wants to check out what social inept is up too?" Noah had inquired first.
Lindsay's hand flew up in the air and the lovable blonde bounced up and down in excitement. "Ooh! I'll do it Nate!" The buxom female abruptly paused in her jumping as a thought came to her. "Wait…there's only 32 of us! Who's social imp?"
Noah pinched his forehead in a vain attempt to save off the incoming headache while a couple other campers snickered at Lindsay's cluelessness. Regaining control of himself, the booklover continued.
"Just go see what Ezekiel is up to." Lindsay nods eagerly, but doesn't move. "Ezekiel…boy…not Tyler.....wearing hat…table over there." Following the tanned finger Lindsay finally spots Ezekiel. "Ohhhhh…so that's Ethan!"
Climbing out of the pool, Lindsay scampered happily over to Ezekiel completely obvious of the loud splashing sounds in the background caused by Noah repeatedly trying to drown himself in the water to avoid any further brain damage.
Ezekiel in the meantime carefully folded the paper he held grinning happily as it started to take shape. His grin faded when he felt the presence of someone behind him. Glancing around with a confused look on his face, the homeschooler finally shrugged before continuing what he was doing.
Lindsay slowly raised herself up from her hiding spot behind the chair enough to see the contents of the table. Practically every inch of the table was covered with brightly colored sheets of paper. Nodding in understanding the blonde stood up.
"ETHAN'S JUST FOLDING PAPER!" Lindsay yelled out causing Ezekiel to let out a startled yell. "AHHH!" Don't do that eh!"Ezekiel cried out before calming down. "And it's noot joost paper. It's origami."
"Ohhhh! ETHAN'S DOING ORANGE GAMEY!" Lindsay once again shouted out. Ezekiel fought to keep a straight face as he explained. "Noot Orage Gamey…Origami. Oru meaning foolding and kami meaning paper eh."
"That's Japanese by the way." Noah finished drolly as he walked over to them with the infamous twins, Izzy, Beth and Harold close behind. Courtney had also joined the group on the basis that learning an art from another country was always good for the resume.
The moment the CIT noticed Harold had somehow snuck into "her" group she had thrown a massive fit. Surprisingly Ezekiel had been the one to end it. "Yoor being rude. You wanna learn, you goot to ask nice and ask Yue eh!"
Before Courtney could protest further, Noah had walked past her and stood before the Japanese woman. "Ohayou." The cynical teen greeted while bowing politely. The other teens were quick to repeat the greeting.
Yue nodded simply before gesturing at the table. The origami class continued on with most of the ex-campers successfully managing to create the crane. Izzy however once again had exceeded expectations.
"It's a submarine!" Izzy grinned holding up her origami with a happy smile. Just as quickly the red head's trademark grin was back. "And look! It even shoots flaming torpedoes!" As Izzy proceeded to demonstrate, the others quickly grabbed their own creations before vacating the table. The group watched in horrified fascination as the wooden table went up in flames.
"So do you remember now Lindsay?" Lindsay opened her mouth to answer Beth, when she was interrupted by the much welcomed sight of her family's "straw fur man" entering the building carrying a brown package decorated with tiny green trees in his hands.
"Chester!"Lindsay squealed happily before noticing the box the driver held. "Oooh is that for me?" Without waiting for a response, Lindsay took the gift away and opened up the box flaps. In no time she had located the plates and the gingerbread cookie cutter of a long haired girl wearing a bikini and sunglasses. The red note she stared at in confusion. "Who's Ezekiel?"
Two plates. One foor the person I met on the island and the other to share with friends and family eh.
And In case I never said soo, I didn't knoo I was hurting people with my woords and I'm really really really soorry for what I said on the island before eh!
Happy Holidays, Lindsay
Ezekiel
