I stared at Jenny in disbelief. She'd always seemed a bit boring to me, to be honest, but suddenly I was seeing a whole new side to her, and I had no idea what to make of it.
"You nicked their phones?" I asked. "How did you do that?"
She grinned. "It was easy." she said. "They're both such numskulls, they went off to play football and left their bags lying next to each other on the ground. They haven't even got passwords! So we can send messages on them, stir up some trouble for Thomas and his minion."
I don't think I'd have agreed usually, and now, thinking back, I really wish I hadn't. Then maybe this wouldn't have gone too far. But back then, I wasn't thinking straight, and it had been a tough week for me. So I found myself nodding.
"Good idea," I said. "I'll do Thomas." I wondered who I should send it to, scrolling down the contacts. Anything mean would mean to someone I wasn't targetting would mean being a bully myself, which I definitely didn't want to do. I had to think of something different, which would put Thomas Fletcher into the same situation as all the people he'd picked on, teach him a lesson. I thought briefly of putting a message on facebook, advertising drugs or something. But that would be way too much.
Then I had an idea.
I know this is a really short chapter, but I'm not sure what to do next with the story, but thought I'd better update this since I wasn't able to write anything while I was on holiday. But thanks to everyone who's reviewed the story, and I'll continue this chapter later this week.
