Chapter 16
When Max came to he was in the counselour's cabin. Gwen looked like she had been crying and was still hunched over. Max sat up and Gwen immediately looked up.
"I'm sorry kid. It's just I came from the bad part of the city and I needed to be tough there to protect myself. I forgot you were only a kid and went a little wild back there." Gwen said solemnly. Max stayed quiet. "I really didn't mean it. I was just mad that's all." Max still stayed quiet. Gwen stood up and approached Max and attempted to give him a hug, but Max pushed her away. She seemed dangerous and Max was done getting hurt. He got up, left the counselor cabin, and went to find his friends.
It didn't take to long to find anyone. It turned out it was dinner time so everyone, but Gwen was in the mess hall eating what looked liked hotdogs. Max got one and sat down with Nikki and Neil.
"Sorry, we left you behind, Max. We really thought you were with us." Neil squeaked out sincerely.
"Yeah, but then we got back to camp and we noticed you weren't there and we went back for you and saw David caring you back and were really scared so we asked around and found out everything!" Nikki fastly spoke.
Neil spoke out suddenly "Did Gwen really yell at you" "yeah did she!" Nikki added.
"Yeah, she was really pissed. She was like Godzilla on steroids." Max grimaced thinking back.
"I always thought she kind of liked you in a motherly way. I can't believe she would be so mean to you especially" Neil thought out loud.
"Sometimes people are jerks what can you do about it," Max said as he strolled back to David's and his cabins to get some much-needed sleep. Upon entering Max found a letter with his name, a king-sized candy bar, and a pair of little blue booties. Max opened the letter.
"Hey Max,
I'm still really sorry about earlier. That wasn't cool of me so I knitted you some booties for your bear and decided to give you a king-sized candy bar. I really hope we can go back to normal.
A very sorry,
Gwen"
Part of Max wanted to forgive Gwen, but the other half of him just couldn't. So he put on the cute little booties of Mr.honeynuts, cuddled up to him, and went to sleep.
