Chapter 12

The sunlight creeps through the clouds as morning has arrived at the campsite. Drake wakes up and unexpectedly finds Hiram passed out next to him. He rolls over to wake up Kris, who rubs his eyes and sits up.

“When did he come back?” Kris whispers as he looks over at Hiram.

“I don’t know,” Drake says, “I just woke up man.”

“I’m kind of surprised that he came back, to be honest I kind of thought that he was going to ditch us,” Kris says as he puts on his glasses.

“Me too,” Drake says as he sits up. The boys notice the Camaro parked on the trail and walk over to it.

“Looks like he picked up a new car, it beats the hell out of that Bronco,” Drake says.

“It’s okay,” Kris says while looking it over, “I wonder how he got it?”

“Let’s find out,” Drake says as the boys walk over to the snoring Hiram. They stand over him, trying to think of a funny way to wake him up.

“What should we do here?” Drake asks.

“I say we find something to wake him up,” Kris responds, “what do you think would do it?”

“We could pour a bucket of water on him,” Drake says.

“No, funny but way to overdone,” Kris says, “and not to mention we don’t have a bucket or any water.”

“I have a perfect idea,” Drake says as he grabs a handful of mud and gently puts it in Hiram’s hand, making sure not to awaken him.

“I know what you are going to do,” Kris says, “let me help.” Drake nods and Kris begins tickling Hiram’s face with a piece of grass. Hiram’s nose begins twitching. Drake is trying to hold his laughter in. Kris begins tickling Hiram’s face again; Hiram brings his hand up to scratch the itch and smacks himself in the face with a handful of mud. Kris and Drake begin laughing hysterically. Hiram jumps up in anger.

“What the fuck?” Hiram yells.

“You just wiped your face with horse shit,” Kris says.

“You little fucker,” Hiram yells as he tackles Kris, who is still laughing.

“Dude it was just mud,” Kris says, “I’m sorry, it was just too good.” Hiram lifts his fist as if he is about to punch him.

“If you weren’t so skinny Kris, I would kick your ass,” Hiram says, “it’s like hitting a fucking girl.”

“I’m sorry,” Kris says with a smile as Hiram lets him get up. Hiram tries to wipe the mud off his face, but it isn’t working very well.

“Is there any water around here?” Hiram asks, “I need to wash this shit off of my face.” Drake tries to help Hiram by picking up a leaf off of the ground and attempting to help wipe some of the mud away.

“I don’t know if there is any water around here, we haven’t really gone exploring yet,” Drake says.

“What have you all been doing since we left?” Hiram asks.

“We’ve just been hanging out, talking and stuff. By the way, where is Tyrone?” Drake asks.

“We found this place in Pinewood where there were a bunch of people around.
