Chapter two.

Grubbs, still shocked and awe- stricken as to what had happened earlier, was totally oblivious as to what was going on around him.

He was sat in double history. BORING! But today, he wasn't as bored, because all he could think about was that girl, Melissa Mullen.

"GRUBBS! WAKE UP! WHO WON AT THE BATTLE OF HASTINGS?!" His History teacher, Mr. Rondonald was staring at him, with his angry red face.

"Umm… Melissa Mullen?"

Everyone burst out laughing, all apart from one girl, sat in the corner, all alone. Melissa Mullen. Grubbs hadn't realised that she was there, and he went red. He hadn't meant to say it. They were the only two words on his mind.

Grubbs sat alone in the canteen that day. Every time he looked up from his dinner, every single person was staring at him, laughing and sneering at him. Then, SHE walked in. Melissa Mullen. As she waded through the sticky floors of the canteen, people sneered at her, told her to go and sit with her lover, her boyfriend. Strangely enough, she did. Grubbs was so embarrassed. He couldn't even look up at her.

"Grubbs, are you OK?" Melissa asked. Grubbs said nothing. Melissa nodded with approval, realised that he didn't want to talk, and ate her dinner.
