Ritchie Neville
“Ritchie wake up, its time for school....” Ritchie woke up with a shock, hey that wasn’t his Mum’s voice. He looked up to see Nadia staring at him, smiling in a sweet yet somewhat unnerving way. Nadia was Ritchie’s so called girlfriend who popped in now and then when she needed something from him. Ritchie loved her regardless though. Ritchie sat up and gazed at her with half closed eyes. She looked pretty today, he smiled, glad she was his girlfriend. Then she turned on him, she threw a peice of paper at him. He picked it up wondering what had made her change so suddenly. Oh no, he remebered now, her performance, he had been ordered to be there by her, to make an appearance as her older boyfriend. Nadia was only 14 you see.
“Sorry Nad, I forgot......”
“You were to busy mucking around with those mates of your listenign to that rubbish music and finding more ways to make your lcohtes look blacker, right? No don’t answer that, I know, you just don’t care do you? Well I’ve had it with you, you never do anything I want you to, that it we’re finished.” All of a sudden Ritchie felt a lump in his throat and his eyes starting stinging. She stormed out of his room. He looked down at the programme she had thrown at him and a wet patch appeared as the tears left his eyes.

Sean Conlon
Sean chewed on his pen, trying to get more ideas for his new song. He had just won a great award for his song but now he couldn’t even think of anything to follow up his last achievements. Ah hah!! Sean though and suddenly the ideas flowed, he jotted them down quickly then went off for a walk in the area. He wandered the streets then came to the library. On entering the library he saw a figure sitting at the computer, one hand on the keyboard, the other folding brightly coloured papers. It was Thuy! Suddenly he felt a fluttering in his stomach as he felt a sudden urge to go up to the girl. She wokred on her things totally oblivious to the fact that the youngman was staring over her shoulder.
“Thuy!”
She jumped and all the peices of paper dropped to the floor.
“Sssorrry” Sean stuttered picking them all up and setting them down on the table quickly. She gazed up and gave him a harmless punch. They laughed as Sean pretended to be hurt. Sean finally plucked up the courage to ask Thuy to go out for a milkshake. She agreed and quickly gathered up all her belongings and stuffed them into her small bag.
“Come on then” she called to him as she walked towards the door, leaving him daydreaming! “Anytime today?!!”
