By time Caveman came back, he had all began to dig again, truth or dare long over.  "Hey look who showed up," Zig calls, "Hey man we thought you were dead for sure." "Hey Caveman, what you say?" Magnet asks. "Nothing." "What age do to you?" X asks. Caveman repeats his first answer.

"What is this? Thank you guys." Caveman chuckles at his fully dug hole. "Don't look at us." "Yeah it was Zero," Magnet and Zig say, "Boy likes to dig holes." X-Ray and Armpit talk as I measure my hole. I look around, deciding to just call for Zigzag to help. "Zig! I need help...again..." Zigzag laughs and gets out of his hole. He walks over and jumps down into mine, picking me up and setting me on the edge, crawling out too.

"You comin?" "Nah, I ain't done yet, I'll see ya in a bit." I nod and kiss his cheek, quickly turning away and running to catch up with Caveman. "Hey Caveman." I nudge him a bit and he nudges me back. "So what went on while I was gone? You and Zigzag seem to be pretty close now." He wiggles his eyebrows at me.

"We may or may not of been dared to kiss in truth or dare." I mumble, looking down and he laughs. "Has he asked you out?" "Nope." "He better." We laugh and continue walking back to camp together, joking with eachother the whole way.

I sat next to Zigzag at lunch, X-ray on the right of me when we all saw Mr.Sir push Swuid backwards and into a table. "Anybody see anything wrong with me face?" Mr.Sir asks. Nobody says nothing. "Huh?! I think I'm kinda purdy don't you?!" "Yes Mr.Sir." Everyone says. Mr.Sir motions something then walks away as Mom stands up, "Now I think we just learned a valuable lesson. We're all people, and Mr.Sir is a very sensitive man, just like all of us."

"Damn, Mr.Sir looked ready to rip Squids head off his shoulders and put it in the beans." I said, shaking my head as the others chuckled. "Hey Kj, can I talk to you outside?" Zigzag asks. I smile and follow him outside. "Ok so, I think you saw this coming, but will you go out with me?" Zigzag scratches the back of his neck.

I laugh, "Is that really a question?" I softly kiss his lips then turn around to walk back inside as he watches me. He walks in after me a few seconds later and we sit together. "Lord have mercy if you two didn't go out there to get together I'm gonna slap ya both." X-Ray says. Me and Zigzag side eye each other with little smiles and the whole table starts cheering.

I sit on the steps of the D tent, watching the boys play basketball, but mostly ogling shirtless Zigzag. "Hey Kj! Get over here and play!" X-Rat calls. "Nah, man! Haven't played since elementary school!" They all yell for me to go and play with them, so I give in with a sigh, tying my sleeves around my waist and putting my hair up.

(Warning:I know nothing about basketball)
"Alright Kj, let's see what you got." X-Ray walks up to me dribbling and I focus on the balls. He tries to fake me out, but I know better, and steal the balls, turning and shooting. Straight into the net. "So much for haven't played since elementary school." Armpit jokes, pushing me a bit as we laugh.

"Alright, redo, I was going easy on you." X-Ray says, getting the ball back. He tried to fake me out again, this time acting like he was passing but actually takes a shot. I block it and pass it to Armpit who passes it to magnet while I get open. Magnet sees me and passes it to me as I shoot, making another score. My team cheers and we all high five as they give me pats on the back.

Mom calls us for lunch and I'm there first, since I skipped breakfast and I'm starving my ass off. I take my food and the boys follow in the line. I go sit in my hole, basking in the bit of shade and taking off my tank top, and adjusting my sports bra in case one of the boys stop by. I hear the guys talking about something but I don't pay attention, just trying to eat and get the smallest bit of rest.
