OK. Queen Nightshade de Freak told me to do an authors note at the start instead of in the middle of the story so yeah… this is it.
And she also said it's a bit too short. So im gonna attempt to make it longer! Here goes…..
'Ding Dong!' The doorbell rang.
"Grubbs! I'm busy! Can you get that?" Dervish shouted down the stairs.
"Sure!" Grubbs replied. His head was still ringing uncontrollably. It was driving him scranny! He opened the door, to find a girl slightly shorter than him, with silky, strawberry blonde hair and sparking, blue eyes staring at him. It was Mina Lornson.
"Mina!" Grubbs said in a shaky voice. Why is she here? I look a mess! He thought.
"Hey Grubbs. I- I've got to talk to you about something," she said, looking troubled.
"OK come in," Grubbs said, stepping aside as if she were a princess, being welcomed into her palace.
The two of them sat down. There was an awkward silence, as neither of them knew what to say. It was finally broken by Dervish coming into the room.
"Grubbs who was at the d- O! Hello! I'm Dervish, Grubbs' uncle," Dervish introduced himself to Mina. "You didn't tell me there was a girl coming round, Grubbs!"
O no. He's so gonna embarrass me in front of her now!
"So are you two on a date, then?" Dervish asked in a teasing voice.
"No, but we'd like to be left alone Derv, if that's OK with you," Grubbs said in a forced calm voice, trying not to get mad.
"OK sure, but no mischief!" Dervish laughed, and Mina flashed him a smile. Then he left. That was when the horror began.
"Grubbs, this is going to sound so strange and you wont believe anything I say," Mina began. But Grubbs interrupted her.
"You like me and you want to go out with me," Grubbs finished what he thought she was going to say.
"What? NO! What are you talking about, you freak?" Grubbs didn't expect that.
"But I've seen you looking at me all the time, and I thou"-
"The reason I've been looking at you is because I know you're secret!" She practically flipped.
"Secret?" Grubbs was lost.
"Why is my Grandad buried in your garden?"
As she said that, the humming in his head increased in volume, and Grubbs passed out.
