Holes & Hearts [HOLES FANFIC]

Chapter 3

After we kissed, I could barely move. I was so stunned. "Wow." I said, walking back to D-Tent with him. I couldn't stop smiling. When I got inside, I sat down on my cot, putting my hair into a messy bun on the top of my head. I couldn't help but notice that all of the other guys were being extremely quiet.

Then they all burst into laughter. "YOU GUYS MADE OUT!" Squid yelled, hysterically laughing. Instantly Zig's eyes went wide and he looked around blushing. "Yea, so what?" he asked, questioning their laughs. "SHE ACTUALLY MADE OUT WITH ZIG! SHE DOESN'T KNOW DOES SHE?!" Squid screamed, still laughing his head off. "I don't know what? And why were you guys watching! You should mind your own business!" I said, causing the laughter to die down a bit. "We couldn't help but watch. Zigzag's never been in a relationship before, plus he suffers from.. uh.. acute paranoia. He's crazy! Why would you make out with him?!" Caveman said. I stood up and left the tent. As I was leaving, I saw Squid get up and follow me. "What are you doing?" I asked him. "No, it's what were you doing? Thinking to make out with Zigzag. He's crazy, the guy." Squid answered. "I like him. He's nice, friendly and at least he treats me like an angel. He's not crazy!" I said. "Yea, he is. He thinks that this entire place has tiny microphones and cameras everywhere." "I still like him."

I ran off toward the washrooms. At least there I could get a bit of privacy. I stepped in, and even though I didn't have to go, it was quiet. I had time to think to myself. Gosh, why was Squid being so bitchy back there about Zig and I? Why was everyone being so bitchy? I thought to myself. I decided to go the separate way when I heard the dinner bell. I was so pissed at everyone. Except Zigzag. That kiss was perfect. I walked in, and grabbed a tray. Something green and sloppy was dumped onto it, along with two slices of bread and a carton of orange juice. I sat down at the D-Tent table, in between Zigzag and Zero.

I poked at my food with my fork. "Darlin', you better eat up." I heard Zig's voice say. "Tomorrow, it supposed to be the hottest day of the month. If you want energy, you gotta eat up." he said. "I will." I muttered. I wasn't angry with him, but if I sounded all bright and cheery with him and him only, everyone would make fun of me. So, I just pretended to be Zero and kept quiet. I forced the slop down and gagged. It tasted like spinach goop. "Hey Sly, babe. Sorry about earlier." Squid had said to me. I ignored it. Why does he keep calling me babe? Finally, I decided to answer him. "Its fine, just.. don't keep calling me babe, okay?" "Why not? You're my babe." he said, winking at me. Zigzag glared at Squid. They seemed to be having a conversation with their minds. It was kind of creepy. "I'm not your freaking babe, okay? I'd prefer to be not called that, so please. Or else." "Or else what?" he turned to me. "Or else I'll punch you so hard you'll be wishing a yellow spotted lizard bit you." I said. And with that, I left the dinner table.
