The Teachers Sister

Chapter 8 (s1e4-Part 2)

After eating lunch we carried on walking.

"Come on guys we need to keep moving." I saw a frog and took a photo quickly. "Alfie?" I looked over and saw my brother off his face.

"We're being followed." He whispered.

"You alright?" Rosie asked.

"His eyes look funny." Jo said. I moved closer and looked into his eyes.

"Yeah. Hes high." I said.

"For god sake." Miss Gulliver whined.

"People." Mitchell said.

"Everyone wave. Get there attention." Rosie said.

"I know. I'll chuck a rock at them." MItchell said.

"Yeah. That will make them want to help us." I said sarcastically.

"Wheres Alfie?" I looked about when my brother stumbled over.

"No one drink from the river. They where really bad berries." He mumbled. The fishermen began getting very angry so we quickly ran away.

"Sir shit in the river." Mitchell laughed.

"Why do you have to ruin everything?" Rosie asked.

"Rosie-"

"No you decide its rubbish so you make it rubbish." Rosie said.

"You hated the farm too." Alfie said.

"I told you not to eat those berries adn what did you do?" She asked.

"Alright. I admit that-"

"Your stupid. Your immature. And you only think about yourself." Rosie said and I winced knowing this was getting ugly.

"I think about you all the time. That's why I let the piggy free." Alfie slurred.

"You let the pig free?" Rosie asked.

"Oh god its hard to watch." I mumble to Chantell.

"You said you admire the gesture." Alfie said.

"Yeah by a child." Rosie said.

"But its free." Alfie said.

"I can't believe you'd think Id ever be interested in you. Your a perfetic, selfish little boy." My brother didn't say anything else, just walked away. I sighed.

"I'll keep an eye on him." I frowned and walked after him.

"Go away. I want to be on my own for a bit." Alfie said.

"Whats that?" Steven asked.

"I originally thought he was digging his own grave." I said.

"Its a bucket." Alfie said.

"I'm sorry for being moody. Its my ex." Chantell said.

"Finley. He left her." Steven said.

"Hes my first long term relationship." Chantell said.

"By long term you mean?" Alfie asked.

"He took me out, like, twice." Chantell said.

"Right." Alfie said.

"He said he loved me just to sleep with me." Chantell frowned.

"What happened?" I asked.

"He slept with me." Chantell said.

"I mean after." I said.

"OH, he said I wasn't mature enough. I like adel and I haven't been in Clair's accessories in like 2 years. Sir. Why dont you come sit with us." Chantell asked.

"I don't think Miss Gulliver wants to talk to me too much." Alfie said.

"We do." I smiled as Steven helped him up and we went over to the others. I got a seat between Mitchell and Ying.

"Hey guys. Sorry about the stream and stuff. Don't worry. Look. I'll make a fire." Alfie smiled. I put my hand on his shoulder.

"Think about this before you do it Al." He nodded and picked up some sticks.

We finally got back to the school and I sighed in relief.

"You okay there little Wickers?" I smiled and nodded.

"Its good to be back." I smiled. I saw Miss GUlliver talking with Alfie.

"Hey Miss. Can I talk to you for a minuet." She walked over and Mitchell walked off. "I'm sorry for Alfie. Hes never been good with relationships of crushes. Once when a girl rejected him he made up some stupid song and put it all over YouTube." I sighed but she smiled. "But you know what its like right? When you really like someone and you want to do anything you can to prove that there a good person who means well." She looked to Alfie and smiled.

"Yeah I know." I smiled and jumped as two arms wrapped around me.

"Where you been?" I smiled and turned around kissing Franks cheek.

"You would love to know." I giggled.
