Chapter 7

I’m holding on as hard as I can. Henry sees me and comes over, looking like he is going to help.

‘I think I’ll go ask Lola to dance with me now. You stay here. It looks like you’ve got your hands full,’ he laughs as he approaches.

What is going on? Isn’t he going to help me? As he gets closer to me, I recognize the look on his face: he is thinking, as always. Then a cheeky grin fills his face, and I know for sure. He’s up to something.

‘Help me,’ I plead. Those are the last words I want to say, but I can’t hold this rope much longer.

‘Let me ask you a question,’ Henry says.

‘A question! Can’t you just help me?’ I demand.

He ignores my suggestion. ‘What would be more embarrassing than having Lola refuse to dance with you?’

‘I don’t know,’ I shout at him. ‘What?’

‘This!’ He grabs the bottom of my huge shorts and yanks them down to my ankles.

So, there I am. Holding a piece of rope that is suspending the disco ball, with my shorts around my ankles. Just standing there in my undies, with no way of pulling them up.

Of course, some kids start to notice. They nudge each other and point in my direction. ‘Look at Alex,’ I hear them say. ‘He’s in his jocks!’
