Chapter 8

When Erin got to her form she sat beside Vlad who was talking to Jonno.

"Happy birthday Erin."

"Shh, Jonno, I don't want people to know about it."

"Too bad," Vlad said, there was a 'whoosh' she looked down and there was a huge '18 TODAY!' Badge pinned to her school tie.

"Cheers Vlad." She said.

"You're welcome."

"Oh, and before I forget, this is from me and mum."

"Thanks Jonno."

The gift was a photo album of pictures taken over the summer when the three of them had gone traveling the coast. Known for its dull weather there were very few days Vlad couldn't go out. Looking through them there were so many memories. From the many disco's they had been too and blowing, going to the theme park and even one from when she fell asleep in Vlad's arms.

"You're welcome" he said as she hugged him.

"Right, come on; let's get this day over with." She sighed as the bell rang and she was escorted to her first lesson. History.

She sat at the back, unnoticed by anyone else she drifted off into her mind. She felt Vlad nudge her and her eyes sprang to the teacher. "Sorry?"

"Erin, name something that lead to the downfall of Hitler."

"League of Nations" Vlad whispered, so only she heard.

"League of Nations." She answered. She was lucky this was what she had done her essay on, so she knew about it.

"Care to elaborate Miss Noble?"

"Um.. They didn't stop him from breaking the Treaty of Verslise, and this made him over confident so he didn't believe them when they said that Poland was the last straw."

"Correct, now would you kindly pay attention to the lesson."

"Yes sir." She murmured.

At break time it was a dull day so they picked Wolfie up to take him outside for break time.

After taking him back they went through the rest of Friday without any trouble. Since the three were going out tonight for her birthday Mina agreed to take Wolfie over night and drop him off in the morning. Well, maybe afternoon, they were going out drinking. Although they wouldn't get drunk, well, too drunk, they had Wolfie to entertain for the week of half term.

Erin was using Wolfe's room to get ready because they wanted to get out as soon as the sun set as the dull day had brightened up during lunch.
