STATE OF GRACE. beta squad

014.  surviving a broken nail, oh and the outback

the camera cuts.

the two held the phone in their hands being told that aj and kenny were giving them their first words for the day.

"short bitch and cheating cunt." mikey cursed at them under her breath.

they watched the video till it ends.

"all you have to do is check your." "rucksacks!"

mikey claps with joy as sharky repeats the word watching as she took her rucksack off her back.

the girl pulls out a map that was painted in black and white with things she knew none of them knew.

"oh i've got a compass." sharky stated holding the object in his hand.

"let's get walking." he stood up holding his hand out to help her up.

mikey looks at him like he was crazy.

"walk?!" she holds her head.

"..i think so." sharky trails off with a laugh.

"that's just not right," she mumbles taking sharkys hand and being pulled up swiftly.

"they have lost their fucking minds." mikey shook her head pulling her rucksack back.

once they figured out what way to go mikey and sharky began their descent to kenny and aj.

"road!" mikey screams out of breath.

pointing to the empty road.

"finally." sharky heaves loudly grabbing her arm to it as the camera follows.

"I've had enough already." she groaned tightening the grip on her bag as they begin to walk in a straight line.

she goes to pull her hair up in a ponytail then all of a sudden stopping in the middle of the road letting out a whiny cry.

"what?!" sharky looks at her in sheer panic.

her head lifts as she tries not to kill herself right then and there.

"i haven't got a bobble." mikey cried out to the one thing she forgot.

sharky side eyes her then the lens.

"you're crying over that?"

she couldn't help but narrow her eyes at him with a scowl growing on her face.

"yes, Sharmarke. i am." michelle answers using his full name.

his eyes widen slightly.

"It's flipping hot out here and my hair is sticking to my neck!" she tugs on her collar.

the boy takes a look around the quiet forest looking at the floor.

suddenly he let out a gasp.

his body running to the edge of the road and bending down to pick something up.

"what did you find-"

mikey was cut off as she stood with a smirk that fought its way to her face.

he stood proudly with a dirty rubber band in between his fingers.

"for your ponytail!" sharky said happily to her.

mikey couldn't help but giggle rolling her eyes playfully.

the camera cuts to the other team who were also struggling then back to them.

mikey and sharky walked side by side.

mikey singing out loud.

"and you can't spell awesome without me!" the girl yells out spinning around.
