(16 days till the next Greenie)
Hot. It was so damn hot. Waking up in the dark closet felt like I was in a microwave. Trying to find any air that wasn't filled with that horrible sticky heat. My body that was coated with a fine layer of sweat crawled over to the door.
"Hey! Somebody let me out! It's like a toddler's fucking easy bake oven in here!" I choked out, resting my head against the dry unforgiving wood. As if in cue a God opened the door allowing for a short breeze to hit my skin.
"Y/n?" It was Zart that stood above me with a ring of keys in his hand. "Are you oka-"
"Oh my God you're an Angel." I cut him off with a hug. Which he accepted and returned even though our bodies seemed to feed heat hellishly off one another. Finally we unstuck from each other (but I still held onto his arm). "What the hell is happening? Did we die?" I darted my eyes around, licking my lips. "Are we in hell?! Not that I'm surprised I'm here, but you..." Zart's face rouged even though it was already flushed with the early baby pink of sunburn.
"Nobody knows why but it's extra hot today. Feels like the devils spitting fire on us. Newt convinced Alby to let everyone to take today off, head down to the pond to cool off." Zart laid his warm hand on my shoulder. "It got so crazy Newt forgot about you and I just remembered so I came to get you."
"Thank you." I said placing a hand on his. "What time is it?"
"About eleven. You weren't awake in there for long right?!" His voice strained with worry
"No no!" I reassured him. "Just woke up. I promise."
"Good good. I'm sorry for getting you so late."
"Don't apologize Zart." I wiped a fresh layer of sweat dripping off of me. "Takes too much energy."
"Oh okay. Oh!" He smacked his head. "Um, we all got our swimsuits and yours came up in the box last time. We shoved it in the closet for later." He dug through miscellaneous boxes until he found something. "Here it is!" My stomach turned. It was a hot pink bikini.
"What the hell is that?!" Even seeing it stirred a visceral reaction in me. "Is that a traffic sign or a swimsuit?!" Zart held it up in confusion.
"I think swimsuit?"
"It's barely anything." I groaned. "Jesus Christ!" Licking my lips I laughed weakly, attempting humor. "Are you sure that's not for Gally?" Zart passed me the skimpy threads.
"I don't think so. Sorry-"
"No apologizing." My voice cracked along with my tongue, dry from lack of water. "I'm gonna go put whatever this thing is on okay."
"Oh-okay. I'll be outside, on the porch, or something."
The creators definitely sent me this as some sort of punishment. I looked in the mirror disgusted. Not of myself, I'm a babe, but more of how weird it looked on me. It's obnoxious fluorescent hue that looked clownish on me. After pouting and trying to pull the top up and the bottoms down for what seemed like forever. I heard a knock at the door.
"Hey y/n? It's Chuck." His voice sounded muffled by the door. "Did you pass out in there?"
"Chuck go get me a towel from the showers."
"What?"
"Just go get me one!"
"Okay!"
