"...This is so stupid." Micah mumbles, looking at you from the side while pulling on the chain connecting the two of you together for the day. It's so ridiculous you can't do much but just laugh it off.

Micah and yourself lost a game with the rest of the guys, and are currently forced to be handcuffed together.

Bill stole a police officer's handcuffs and dared everyone to play some blackjack; with the two losers with either the least money or none at all at the end getting handcuffed together for twenty-four hours the next day.

The one night you needed luck on your side.

Micah got bankrupt extremely quickly, and you soon followed when the dealer got 21 first try for the third time that night.

The other guys woke you both up bright and early, gathering everyone in a circle for your 'punishment'. You and Micah stood there, both not so happy about being the laughing stock of camp, before Bill got the handcuffs and locked them around each of your wrists.

"There," Bill chuckled as the handcuffs clicked, and the two of you were officially starting your punishment. "until tomorrow, same time as today."

The gang members soon dispersed after giving a good laugh at the two of you, which didn't amuse you nor Micah one bit.

Now, you'll have to go on with your days like always; as normally as you could, at that.
