Two friends that are put in a tempting situation, tell on their worst enemy that gets into trouble more than 7 times a week, or.......... take the blame for it!

Tennis Trouble!!! 

Panting like a dog, Tamsin leapt up into the air and batted the tennis
ball with all her might. Greg missed the ball and quickly retrieved it. 
"Nice swing Tam," sighed Greg with an over-the-top hint of sarcasim, 
"any harder and the ball would of gone through that old willow tree, 
WELL DONE!" He snapped. 

Tamsin was the sort of easy-going girl; she didn't mind whatever game
Greg came up with -as long as it was sports she wasn't bothered.She had 
soft, silky,long blonde hair. Her piercing blue eyes were as sharp as 
an eagle's. Greg however, had short, scruffy, dark hair and a mixture 
of blue and green in his eyes -almost like a dark aqua colour. 

Most of all the games in the world Tamsin and Greg both absolutely loved
tennis! The day was so short as the knot tightened it grew darker... 
Soon the night sky was as black as ebony and the diamond stars twinkled 
in the sky. 

Dawn awoke the birds as they chirped their gentle melody , three hours
drifted by. Greg woke. Grabbing his tennis equipment, he bombed out the 
door. Rushing. (Bang,bang,bang.)He rapped at Tamsin's door. "Hia Mrs 
Fiz, is Tamsin in?"  "Yes, one minute Greg."  She yelled up the stair 
to her competitive daughter. Raising her arms and letting out a huge 
yawn, Tamsin wondered, what on Earth does she want? Then it hit her it 
was Saturday A.K.A Tennis Day. 

Greg and Tamsin flung themselves out the door and down to the tennis
court. The ball bounced back and forth, from racket to racket, but soon 
Tamsin grew tired. Greg began to taunt her saying how girls are 
pathetic idiots. Then something inside her snapped, it was her turn to 
serve the ball and she belted it with all her 
strength.SMASHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! Straight through Mrs Tulip's (their 
teacher) window, it had flew into the air above the barbed wire mesh 
and before she new it... she'd broken a window! Just then Sid (their 
worst and only enemy ) blasted his football and it crept toward the 
hole in the window. They could blame Sid. 

Mrs Tulip came rushing out of her tiny bungalow. Who was responsable?
Suddenly Greg looked at Tamsin, Tamsin glanced at Greg. "It was 
himmmmmmm!"  They chanted together. "Well,well,well. Sid. I should of 
guessed." Mrs Tulip mornfully stared at sid. "Meeee?" Sid was forced to 
get a job washing rusty, old bangers in order to pay for the window. 

Tamsin and Greg felt guilty, yet so happy to have finally got their own
back on the school bully! "See Tam, if you are mean to people, they're 
mean back!"
