"What do you want kurt it's 8 in the morning ?" I asked him, rubbing my eyes from how bright it actually was outside.
"I'm surprised you're awake but anyways vandalising cabins Lila . I'm this close to kicking you out!" He said while holding his fingers really close together but making sure there was a tiny gap
"vandalising who's cabin? What?" I said having no clue to what he was actually on about this time, all the other times I'd been confronted yes it was me but this time it wasn't.
"don't play dumb . You know what you did just like how you stole money , let out the camps animals and graffitied the outhouse stalls with ziggy! Don't act stupid Lila ." Lord did kurt look angry I gave him a confused look.
"Sheila . You graffitied sheilas cabin and wrote words like "whore" and "slag" all over her walls," he rubbed his forehead from the stress I was seemingly causing him.
oh my god I so badly wanted to punch the bitch
"um kurt . You know she did that to my cabin though?" He rolled his eyes at me
•your lying Lila I'm not dumb" . He scoffed at me , unbelievable.
"why don't you believe me you asshole" I asked knowing he would never believe a word out of my mouth.
"because all of sheilas friends say they saw you in there doing it." He shouted back
"woah no need to raise your voice man . ye they definitely saw me kurt just like they saw me and ziggy taking money for sure for sure." I flipped him off before walking back into the mess hall but was stopped by him grabbing my wrist "what the fuck kurt . Let go" I said while trying to pull away from his grip
"Your tongue . It's purple we don't give out purple drinks," his face scrunched up from confusion and I just froze.
"is it? Must've been my toothpaste or something I'll sort it out before the kids wake up." Right after I said that the morning alarm went for the kids to wake up , Tommy then walked up behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist which caused kurt to give us a disgusted look
"is there a problem kurt?" Tommy asked
"No not right now Tommy but Lila I'll be back to talk to you with the others later on." Kurt then walked out so I turned around and just buried my head into Tommys chest
"I'm sick of him. He never gives me a break." I twiddled with my fingers as my head rested on Tommys chest , I was angry I own up to shit eventually if I've actually done it but this was different.
"What was he on about?" Tommy asked, eager to know.
apparently I graffitied sheilas walls yet she did that to my cabin and wrote stuff like "whore" all over my wall but of course because I'm a shadysider I get the blame." Tommy could tell I was getting angry so he tried to calm me down
"hey hey hey, he's gone you can calm down a little . We will sort out your walls another day they don't matter . What matters right now is that kids are coming into the mess hall and we need to watch them so I'll talk to you in a bit yeah?" He said waiting for me to reply.
"yeah alright I'll see you soon ." I replied .
I then walked into the mess hall to see this kid named Jeremy crying so I had to do my job and check up on him even though I wasn't a councillor I was older then many of the kids here so I was told to help whenever I could
"everything okay Jeremy?" he looked up at me with tears in his eyes but he quickly wiped them.
"um uh yes everything's fine Lila thanks for asking." He replied while wiping a tear that had just fallen and then sorting his glasses out
"well I'm here if you need me alright?" I rubbed his shoulder as he nodded at me , I smiled at him and then got up and walked off to find Alice and Arnie .
Once I had reached their cabin I knocked multiple times yet got no answer . that's odd I thought to myself I then walked off to find cindy but couldn't find her either so I just walked back to Tommy who was hanging with his sister "Tommy , I can't find Cindy Alice or Arnie do you know where they are?" I asked quickly looking around to see if I could see them.
"um I haven't seen them today no but I'm sure they are fine Lila " I then walked off to find them . I was walking around until I thought of the best thing to do which was tell Kurt they were missing so I made my way to his cabin only to walk in on him and Joan having sex
"woah okay this is definitely not what I was expecting," I said startling them so they quickly covered up so they could talk to me
"um well this is awkward. What's up Stratton ?" Kurt asked "Cindy Alice and Arnie are missing. Like Ive looked everywhere." I said which I got an eye roll in response "ur useless kurt What if they are hurt !." I walked off
"your problem not mine!" He shouted which made me frustrated as I needed to speak to Alice but I needed to stop stressing about them and chill so I went to the outhouse bringing a spray paint can with me and I began to paint the walls with a summery design, palm trees and all until I heard screaming coming from inside the outhouse.
"HELPP"
I jumped as the voices continued to scream up at me, well I don't know if it was at me but it was at someone and it was scaring me so bad
"hello?" I asked hoping for a response, part of me didn't want a response.
"oh my ! Lila down here!" The voice screamed up, I recognised it
"Alice?" I yelled back down , I was so confused by what was even happening.
" DOWN THE TOILET!" I looked down there to see Cindy and Alice stranded.
"holy shit how are you down there!" I asked "no time for questions
Lila. just please get us out of here . Get Tommy but just be careful with him ." Hm be careful? Why be careful
"alright I'll be back!" I said before sprinting out and back to the mess hall to see Tommy sitting with kids talking "Tommy! Ur needed!." He then got up and followed me to the outhouse "help . Cindy and Alice are down there we need to get them out." Tommy looked around and then grabbed the bucket in which was used for the toilet and threw it down there for them to sit on
"sit on this and we will pull you up." Tommy said which then we had to grip onto the rope akd pull them up . First was Alice followed by Cindy
"oh my I was looking everywhere for you guys I was worried . Wheres arnie?" I said while hugging both of them
"we will tell you later ." Cindy said which left me confused but they clearly didn't wanna talk about it right now
"you smell like shit" Tommy said almost gagging at them, I gagged but they didn't hear.
"it's because we are covered in it." Alice replied while laughing a little
"okay well once we are out of here and cleaned we have a bedtime story for you guys and your gonna wanna hear it come to my cabin later on!"Alice said before walking out and back to her cabin to change . Cindy running behind her which left me and Tommy in the outhouse together "well we were supposed to clean here so why don't we get started?" He asked in which I nodded .
"Was this you?" He pointed up at the wall outside as we brought in the cleaning supplies.
"Maybe, maybe not." I shrugged not wanting too much credit for my unfinished piece of art
"It's sick," he smiled as they entered and began to clean , I shot him a smile back.
"I'm worried you know."
"Worried about who Lila ?" Tommy asked slightly confused where this conversation had come from
"you. They said to be careful near you and they now won't tell us until later about arnie and its all stressing me out Tommy"I started scrubbing this red stuff really hard as I was still very frustrated and worried so I took it all out of scrubbing this gunk but it wouldn't come off "it. Wont . Come . Off" I complained.
"oh babe that stuffs been there for ages you gotta leave it." He replied . I looked down at my top to see a red stain from the moss
"are you kidding me . It's stained my top as if this day couldn't get any worse" I desperately tried to get the stain out with my hands but it did no help and spread it a bit so I gave up.
"only Lila Stratton would expect to clean the outhouse and not get dirty." Tommy said while putting his hands on my waist before kissing me
"it's not funny Tommy!" I pulled away just to say that only for him to start kissing me again . His hand trailed down to my ass and he squeezed it but I batted his hand away "hey!" He then threw his hands in the air as if I was gonna arrest him "Tommy there's kids around!"
"Alright alright I'm sorry!" He laughed before starting to clean again .
Not long after, kurt appeared at the door "can I borrow Lila for a minute. Thanks" I then walked out to see Sheila and her friends standing around with Kurt next to them "okay so what happened?" Kurt asked "sheilas group first by the way." He added
"okay so I was on my way back from the science and nature cabin when will and the girls saw Lila in my cabin graffitiing the walls!" Sheila said with a fake frown on her face
"and your gonna believe that kurt? this isn't the first time her friends have seen me doing stuff which never happened!" I shouted at him
"Lower the voice witch bitch" Sheila snarled
"fuck off!" I fumed just wanting Kurt to side with me for a change.
"Okay so now Lila your side of the story." Kurt said finally letting me talk
"ok so cutting it short I walked into my cabin and there was writing all over my walls from Sheila snd she's clearly written on her walls just so she can say I did it. Clearly she wants me gone" I shrug still stressing about the stain on my top.
"just let it slide again." A familiar voice came from behind me I turned around to see Tommy
"I cant let everything slide slater," Kurt replied
"but this you can!" Tommy then put his arm around mine which then fake gagging noises came from sheilas group
"whore." she said before running off
"and yet you never tell them off kurt just because you don't wanna ruin Sunnyvale's reputation. Asshole." I then stormed off to my cabin to get changed , Tommy following behind me
"you know we still have to see Cindy and Alice!" He reminded me in all fairness I had forgotten.
"Ye i know just let me get changed." I said before closing the door to my cabin behind us . Tommy then threw himself on my bed "eyes." I said
"what?" He looked confused.
"Tommy your eyes . Close them while I change" he then put his hands over his eyes while I changed my top "done you can open your eyes now." He had opened his eyes then I looked at him to see he had gone awfully pale and sweaty "Tommy?" He didn't respond I then waved my hand in-front of his face "Tommyyyy. Stop messing with me." he still didn't move "okay your actually scaring me now." I sat down next to him .
"BOO" he shouted which caused me to scream
"my soul just left my body . U fucking idiot." He was cracking up on my bed while I was on the edge of tears after that "so was the going really pale and sweaty part of the scare?" I asked
"huh? What do you mean?" He slightly laughed not quite understanding what I was talking about.
"Tommy you're really pale and stuff . You feeling alright?" I held my hand to his forehead to check his temperature but yet he was fine he wasn't hot at all.
"Ye I'm fine it was all me messing around . Maybe we Should go find Alice and Cindy," he kissed my cheek before we got up and left the cabin to walk to Alice's ...
