I stood outside my classroom, trying to raise money for this surgery the caretaker was meant to get because Alfie hit him with the car. I was pissed at Alfie because he was the one who injured him yet he wasn't helping us raise the money.

Alfie finally turned up.

'Oi, where have you been, man? We've been here since 7:30 and it ain't my fault the caretaker's crutter's' said Cleo

'I'm sorry, I got held up. The caretaker lives on the other side of Tring' explained Alfie

'You're still going to his flat every morning?' said Chantelle.

'Chantelle, I have disabled that man for life. It is only fair that I help him with the things he can no longer do for himself'

'Did you break his wanking hand?' joked Cleo

'Ha ha, no I did not, Cleopatra. I just do the boring domestic chores. Cooking, cleaning, back rubs'

'I thought he'd broken his back?' questioned Joe.

'No, Joe, his wife gets the back rubs'

'Ok, run past me that again' said Joe

'It's very simple. Because of what I did to poor Pod, he can no longer give his wife her nightly rub downs. It's only fair that I step into the breach. Pod just, you know, watches' said Alfie.

Alfie then looked out of the window.

'I don't believe it. Richard' Alfie shoved his bag into my hands and ran off.

I dropped it immediately.

We all went into our class room.

'I don't like Pod' I said.

'yeah, he's creepy but maybe thats his vibe' said Stephen.

Alfie came back in.

'right, let's count this money' he said.

He counted it.

'Wow. We've made over a grand. Finally, Pod is gonna be able to go to Las Vegas for that life-changing surgery'

'don't people go to Florida for that, not Vegas' I said.

'Becca, hookers and croupiers need doctors too'

'You don't think he's milking it a little bit?' asked Jing.

'Milking it? that man is parlayed from the waist down. None of you have any idea-' Alfie was interrupted by Rem-Dogg, 'Most of you don't have any idea how difficult that must be. I've ruined the guys life' said Alfie.

'How do you sleep at night? Oh yeah, I remember, in a bush in Miss Gulliver's garden' ridiculed Cleo

That made us all laugh.

I went on my phone. I'd been feeling distracted all day.

Then our Dad game on.

'Hello, Smooch. Gang. I have a reward for all your charitable endeavours'

'All right, dickers. What's the cash for?' I looked up and smiled at my boyfriend.

'Now that is one reward' I said. I hadn't seen Frank all day.

Alfie stood up uneasily.

'Kick start for your fanny truck? Curtains for his curtains?' he said.

I giggled.

'No, and that doesn't even work anyway because I'm a 100% red-blooded bloke, mate' argued Alfie

'Though you did go through a phase. You couldn't tell Alfie what to wear, skirts, dresses, padded bras' said Dad.

'I remember that. For a week we had to call him-' I said.

'Angelina' my Dad and I said at the same time.

'do you ever wish that Dad's could die in childbirth or little sisters maybe?' said Alfie, gritting his teeth.

Listen, Smooch, no one else wants him in their class' said Dad.

'no way. there must be another solution' said Alfie.

'come on, Alf just let him in this class' I said.

'Either Frank joins form K or he gets excluded permanently' said Dad.

'There we are. Knew you'd crack it. Take that to Fraser on your way out' Alfie gave dad the box of money.

'what if your teachers had abandoned little Angelina?' I said.

'just because she didn't conform to their rules?' said Dad.

I was never gonna let Alfie be the reason for Frank being expelled.

'Right, if I take Frank will you never mention Angelina ever again, either of you?' asked Alfie.

'Deal' I said.

My Dad left.

'Joe, please move' I said.

Joe moved and sat next to Jing.

Frank sat in Joe's place.

'you're in this class but you are not sitting next to Becca' protested Alfie

'does anyone want to hear the other phases that Alfie went through?' I threatened.

'Fine, you can sit with him' said Alfie.

'nice one, Ange' said Cleo, laughing.

*TIME SKIP TO THE END OF BREAK*

Me and Frank were making out when Alfie came in with a bandana around his head like a hippie.

'Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo. Sup bitches and g's, let's have a parlay' he said.

We pulled away.

'oh my god, what's happening?' asked Cleo, confused.

'Frank, when I was your age I used to run with a crew' said Alfie

'Crew of twats' I said.

'Shit, them some crazy-ass Holmes.'

'Something tells me Atticus Hoye is involved' said Stephen.

'For real. Me and Hoysie, we once done a burglary together'

'what did you steal, turds?' asked Cleo

'Nah. Apples. Scrumping was a risky biz back in the day. Once got cornered by a farmer backing heat. Yeah, horse chestnut brunch, yay big. We legged it but then got cornered by the pigs' Alfie tried to be all gangsta.

'You got arrested?' asked Rem-Dogg

'Nah, actual pigs. They charged us in their sty. We got covered in mud. Me and Atticus had to strip off and wash each other down in the stream' Everyone just looked at him.

'You're so gay' I scoffed.

'says you' said Alfie.

'Uh I have a boyfriend, dick head' I gestured to Frank sitting next to me, then I smirked at Alfie, 'and what's so bad about being gay anyway? I'd support you'

Alfie rolled his eyes.

'Anyway, Frank, life is a game of chess. But the game is bullshit so why are we so blind to see, the ones we hurt are you and me?' Alfie finished his speech.

'Cheers, Coolio. That was relatively entertaining. I'm gonna go torch the library' he said, getting up.

'No, Frank, please. I promised Miss Gulliver that I would reform you. So can you not be a dick for like six hours? For Becca?'

'You can't use me against him, I'm not an object' I said

'What was I thinking? I can't se the library on fire. I left my lighted in that car I jacked' said Frank.

'you can enter a locked car, take something for it like a mobile phone and then lock it back up again so that no one knows you've been there?' asked Alfie.

'Yeah, Beccs and I jack cars all the time' he said. I nodded.

'How about we use your powers for good?' asked Alfie.

'alright then' said Frank.

'Alfie, please don't tell me you want him to break into a car' said Joe

'obviously not Joe, I want him to break into an ambulance'

'right, Becca, Frank, Chantelle, Stephen, Cleo, Joe, Jing follow me' said Alfie.

I grabbed my bag and we followed him to Richard's ambulance.

'Beccs, tools please' I gave him a tool to open the door. I went round the other side and did the same.

'You're breaking the law, sir' said Chantelle, worried.

'It's a crime of passion Chantelle. Love does not answer to petty laws, rules and regulations. I mean, look at Becca and Frank.' Alfie explained looking at Frank and I breaking into this car.

'I'm in' I said.

'same' said Frank.

We opened the doors and got in.

Cleo, Stephen, Chantelle, Alfie, Joe and Jing squeezed into the back.

'ugh, this car smells of grandads' complained Stephen.

Frank was messing around with the wires.

'Becca, pass me his phone' said Alfie. I got his phone which was next to me and passed it back.

'Alfie, you can't go through someones private messages' protested Joe

'Freedom of information. We deserve to know the truth, Joe' Alfie opened his phone, 'Damn, no texts'

'Off you go then. We're gonna take her out for a spin' said Frank, taking off his tie and jacket. I did the same.

'What? No, you're on the road to redemption, remember? and Rebecca Wickers, I expected better from you. You used to be so innocent before you came to this school'

'Innocent? dude, girls in boarding schools are junkies. I tried weed when I was twelve' I scoffed.

'really? that's my girl' Frank fist bumped me. Frank tried to get this car started but couldn't.

'Ha' said Alfie, proudly.

'Babe, you forgot to...' I leaned over and did what I had to do and it started.

'Thanks, Beccs' He kissed my cheek.

Frank revel the engine. Jing looked shocked and scared.

'Sir' she said.

'don't worry I've got this covered' Alfie said. He snaked his hand around the side of my seat and locked the ambulance.

Me and Frank looked at him confused.

'There. Seven children are locked in this vehicle. None of them are wearing seat belts' said Alfie.

'What's your point?' Frank said.

'Ah, come on, Frank. You're a type, cheeky chappy, but there is no way that you would actually put our lives at risk. Checkmate, my friend, check bloody mate' Alfie was very happy with himself.

'Frank, drive' I mouthed to him. Frank put his foot on the peddle and we were off.

He raced down roads quite fast.

Everyone was either screaming or laughing. Frank was loving it.

He pulled over so we could switch seats.

'Becca, you can't drive' said Alfie.

'Who says I can't?' I said, adjusting my hair.

I out my foot on the peddle this time and drove off.

While I was driving, Joe said 'You know the only thing that could possibly make this day better?'

Everyone shouted 'Pub' but Joe said 'McDonalds, I meant pub'

'No, Becca, take us back' whined Alfie.

'shut up and put this on if we get pulled over, dipshit' I gave Frank and Alfie ambulance jackets. I put one on myself, 'Frank, seat belt'

He put his seat belt on.

'Sir, why don't you text Miss Gulliver pretending to be Richard?' suggested Stephen.

'One immediate problem with that plan, Stephen, what if my natural wit and charm maker her fall in love with him?' said Alfie.

'doubt that'll happen. No girls love you' I joked.

'You love me, little sis' he said.

'yeah, I'm your sister, it's a default' I scoffed.

'Keep it simple sir, start with a question' said Chantelle.

Alfie texted Miss Gulliver asking if she had a great time last night.

Alfie got a text back. 'It was smashing' he said.

'how many kisses?' I asked

'four' he whined.

'oooh' said Frank, 'you get four if they got some of that sweet stuff. I know from experience'

I smirked.

'and it's all in capitals' said Alfie.

'maybe she was being sarcastic?' said Stephen, trying to think of the most best reason.

'I'll text her, 'Last night, I felt like we really connected' said Alfie.

I swerved around a corner.

5 minutes later, Alfie got another text from Miss. G.

He read it out.

'The rumpy-pumpy was tiptop. Fancy playing another hand of jiggery-pokey tonight? Oh my God, she lied to me' said Alfie, shocked.

Frank and I were grinning.

I rushed down a road and took a right into a car park. I parked the car.

'Why don't you text back some really messed up shit?' advised Cleo.

'Yeah, I can put Rosie off by texting her all these disgusting things Richard wants to do in the bedroom' Alfie typed something in.

'sounds like they've already done most of them' said Jing

'Trust me. Rosie was nearly physically sick when another boyfriend asked her to do it ' he sent the text.

Moments later he got a text.

'Tonight, I'm going to ride your hot derriere all the way down to pound town' He read.

Everyone chuckled.

'Your missus is dirt' said Frank.

'what about yours?' said Alfie, teasingly.

Frank and I death- stared him.

'anyway, she's not my missus anymore. I can't believe this. Come on, let's go' moaned Alfie.

'Pub?' asked Frank.

'Pub' agreed Alfie.

A window knocked on the window which startled me. I rolled down my window.

'Thank God you made it. Quick, I saw him collapse. He can't breathe. God, that was quick, I only called you 5 minutes ago' said the women.

'It's just that we're not-' I started to say.

'He's dying' she cried.

Frank, Alfie and I got out.

'Stay here' Alfie said to the others.

We got into a building and there was a man lying on the floor, gasping for breath.

'Coming through, definitely a paramedic' said Alfie.

'oh shit, he doesn't look good' I said.

Alfie tried to talk to him.

'does he have any allergies?' I asked the other people.

'I don't know' said a man.

I looked through a bag that was next to him. There was an epi-pen.

'Ben? your name is Ben?' said Alfie.

I pushed Alfie out of the way and he landed by Franks feet.

I stabbed the epi-pen into his arm.

Moments later, he stopped choking.

He thanked me. Then we heard sirens.

'That would be the back-up ambulance that they send just incase' said Alfie.

'we should probably go fill them in' I said.

We speed-walked out.

I got into the drivers seat and Frank got in next to me.

'right, come on, let's get out of here' hurried Alfie.

I hot-wired the car and got going.

'Sir, you'll never believe who we saw, your little friend pod' said Stephen.

'and he wasn't in his wheelchair' added Chantelle.

'don't be ridiculous' belittled Alfie.

I drove back round the corner.

'we need to clean this up. No one can know we did this' said Alfie.

'Don't worry. There's a tried and tested industry secret for that' said Frank, 'Beccs, shops then field'

I nodded and went a different way.

I drove to the shop. Frank and I got out.

'do not move, we'll be 5 minutes' I said.

Frank held my hand and we walked in.

We got bought 4 bottles of gasoline and some matches.

'Burning something?' asked the cashier.

'ugh, yeah. Clothes' I said, 'my mum died last month and we don't have space to keep all her old clothes' I started to fake cry.

'I'm sorry for your loss' he said. Frank rubbed my back for effect.

We got the gasoline and walked back to the vehicle.

Frank got into the drivers seat so I can dry my eyes.

'Becca, are you crying?' asked Alfie.

'I had to. The person at the counter asked if we were burning something so I had to say that mum died and we were burning her clothes so to not look suspicious' I explained.

Frank drove fast while I fixed my makeup.

'Beccs, you don't nee makeup. You're perfect either way' said Frank.

I kissed his cheek.

'Awww, you are too cute' said Chantelle.

'Ship!' shouted Stephen.

We got to the field.

'right, me and Becca will take care of this' said Frank.

'how many times have you done this?' Alfie asked me.

'A few times'

Everyone stood well away from the vehicle as Frank and I drowned it in the gasoline.

Frank made a trail away from the ambulance with the gasoline. Then chucked the bottle away.

I got the matches and lit one. It went up in flames. Frank wrapped his hand around my waist.

'lets go find a bus stop' said Alfie.

Frank moved his hand to my shoulder.

*TIME SKIP TO THEM BACK AT SCHOOL*

Alfie shushed us as we made our way through the school and back to the classroom.

Fraser and Miss Gulliver were walking in our direction.

'Alfie, have you seen-'

'No, haven't seen it all day. Where did you leave it parked?' panicked Alfie, interrupting her.

'Martin' finished Rosie.

'He needs the keys to the cashbox' added Fraser.

'oh shit, sorry. Yeah, okay, I'll give them to him. That's a promise. You do know what promises are, right?' said Alfie, saltily.

'wait, how did you know that Richards ambulance was missing?'

'you have no right to question me'

'no, seriously, how did you know?' asked Miss G

The class all came up with different excuses. Well everyone apart from Cleo who just straight up just told them.

'How are you finding your new class Frank? Did you have a good day with Mr Wickers' asked Rosie.

Frank hesitated and tensed up. I locked my pinkie with him to calm him.

'Mr Wickers has literally saved my life' he finally said.

'is that a tiny exaggeration?' she asked.

'I was trapped in a self-destructive cycle until, Mr Wickers, well, he showed me the light' Frank said, 'and Rebecca, really helped too' He winked at me.

'Yeah, I've redeemed young Francis, much like Christ redeemed the wayward pirates of Bethlehem. So, so much for Richard's bullshit'

'All I needed to change my ways was my new best mate, Alfie. And my girl, Becca' he said.

Frank hugged Alfie.

'Wow' said Alfie, pleasantly surprised.

They talked about exposing Pod when I lead Frank a little away from the group.

'I love you' I said.

'I love you too but I haven't done anything' he said.

'you just hugged Alfie. I know it was only for show but it means a lot. I haven't hugged Alfie in ages' I said putting a hand on his cheek.

He leant his head into my hand smiling.

Our lips connected and I felt his hands on my waist. Then we were interrupted.

'Becca, I need to give the keys to dad. Come with me please' said Alf.

'yep, sure' I said. We walked down the corridor.

After a lot of searching, we found him.

He was wearing headphones and a leather jacket.

'Dad? Dad?!' shouted Alfie until he turned around.

'I've got the key to the money box' he said.

'Sorry, dude. Couldn't hear you' Dad said, trying to be cool. It was not working. It made me want to die of embarrassment.

Alfie couldn't find the keys. He searched in all of his pockets.

'I assume we have your new girlfriend to blame for this abomination?' I said, pointing to his outfit and looking at it disgusted.

'whoa. Do not use the G word. We're just cuddle buddies. Hump Chums. No strings. Well one string with beads attached' said Dad.

'I want you guys to meet her tonight' he said.

'After what you just said, no way' Alfie said.

'Well, I cannot move in with her until I get your stamp of approval so it looks like I'm bunking at yours'

'She sounds great. The beads, I think she's the one' I said.

Dad took off his glasses and changed them for some sunglasses.

'Dinner at 8 then' he said, 'there is one thing I forgot to tell you about my new portion of heiny'

'where the hell is that key?' Alfie asked himself, 'Oh no, Grayson.Sorry Dad'

Alfie ran down the corridor. I went to the assembly hall.

'Becca, where is your brother?' asked Miss Gulliver.

'He's getting the box, from Dad's- I mean Mr Wicker's- Office' I said.

We waited 5 more minutes.

'I'll go and see what's keeping them' I said.

I ran to Dad's office and saw them fighting over the box.

'what the fuck is going on?' I shouted at them.

It scared them and Alfie let go, leaving Frank with the box.

'I can't believe that you did this' whispered Alfie, through gritted teeth. I snatched the box out of Franks hand and took the keys on the desk behind him.

'sorry, but what the hell are you doing? Everyone is waiting for you to fucking show up' I looked between the 2 of them., 'well, I'm waiting' I put a hand on my hip.

'Frank was trying to steal the money' Alfie blurted out.
