2 neeks, 1 chav & Green Day, chapter 4
Kate walked around a table for 3 hours.
Beth stared at a wall for 3 hours.
Joe twiddled his thumbs for 3 hours.
None of them ate anything all day. They were all thinking the same thing: What happened?
The next day they went to school, didn't talk to each other, didn't do any work & basically just thought about what was going on in there lives. Joe walked home, Kate got on a bus & got lost, & Beth ran. All day she felt like someone was watching her, so she ran home.
When she got there she ran to her room & broke everything in site. She heard shouting & the front door opening & slamming shut... She was alone.
Joe walked into the kitchen & eat everything in site, his mum moaned at him. He went to his room dialled his Nan's number on the phone, then through it across the room.
When Kate finally got home, she fell over everything in site then went up to her room & sat with her legs dangling out the window.
The next day Kate took the day off school & Beth & Joe finally talked.
"Hi, how are you?" Joe asked, shaking.
"Fine, you?" Beth said trying not to cry.
"Don't lie, what are you thinking?"
"Why don't you shut up?"
"I was only asking!"
"Well don't!"
"Stop all this nonsense!" Miss Rushby shouted.
"Sorry Miss." Beth said.
"Tell me what's wrong, Beth." Joe asked her calmly.
"I don't know, I've just been thinking & all I've come up with is I have no idea!"
"Well I've been thinking & I've come up with don't get in Billie Joe's way when he's driving."
"Do you two want a detention?" Miss Rushby asked.
Beth & Joe got on with there work & things got back to normal.
That night Beth called Joe.
"Hello."
"Hi, Joe, it's me Beth."
"Why are you calling me at 11. 30?"
"Because I need to know something."
"What?"
"Did you follow me home from school yesterday?"
"No."
"Well, were you watching me yesterday?"
"No."
"Well then, who was?"
"I don't know! Who was?"
"If I knew would I be asking you?"
"Well do you know?"
"NO!"
"Fine."
"Bye."
"Bye."
Beth put down the phone & looked round, then went to sleep. Joe did not go to sleep at all. He was just thinking about that conversation, going through every word & going through the other day, thinking about who was following Beth. He cared so much for her; did she fell the same way?
