A/N: Thanks to my very small number of reviewers. Is it just me, or are these chapters getting worse? Reveiw! Come on people! You know you want to push those numbers up!

Chapter 16

They were interupted by someone coughing, loudly. They looked up, looked at each other, and jumped back like they'd been burned. Foaly just grinned at them like an idiot. Root pushed past him, mummbling something about paperwork, Holly was looking at the floor, her face a nice bright traffic light colour.

Foaly grinned again. "And here's me thinking you didn't like each other." He grinned and raised an eyebrow. Holly scowled at him.

"We don't" Overall, she was very confused. They hated each other, but they didn't. Like Marmite. Only not. She looked at Foaly again, and picked up her phone, "Foaly, get the doctors number for me. S'really not normal around here at the moment."

Foaly flicked through the Yellow Pages absently. "Maybe it's chemistry. Not even a doctor can cure that. 654321."

Holly gave him a dirty look as she dialled the number. "Hi, can I make an appointment please? Would 4 today be okay? half past's fine yeah, Thanks a lot. Bye."

Foaly watched her curiously. "This is really bothering you isn't it?" She nodded, and carried on with her paperwork. Holly, actually doing paperwork. He gave her a sympathetic look before heading off to find Root.
