The next morning, I sat next to Herb on the bus. I sit next to him every single day. On account of that's what bestest friends automatically do.

Herb started talking about his new dog, Dilly. Only I couldn't even pay attention that good. ’Cause how can you talk about Dilly when you've still got a note from your teacher in your pocket?

Mother and Daddy had signed that dumb thing. And now I had to take it back to Mr. Scary.

I slumped way down in my seat. School was not being fun these days.

I looked at Herb.

I wished I could tell him about my problem. Only what if he didn't like cheaters? And he found out I was one? And then he didn't like me, either?

I thought and thought real hard.

Then finally, I took a deep breath. And I decided to risk it.

I leaned real close to his ear. And I whispered to him very secret.

“Okay. Here's the situation, Herb,” I said. “I'm in a little bit of trouble at school. Only I'm really not bad. I promise. It's just that yesterday I accidentally did something wrong. But I don't actually want to tell you what it was … or else you might not like me anymore.”

Herb looked at me and shrugged. “You copied May's homework when she went to the office,” he said.

I did a gasp at that boy.

Because how did he know that private information?

I scratched my head. “But … but … how did you even—”

Herb interrupted me. “I saw you,” he said. “Lennie and José saw you, too. You're a terrible sneak, Junie B. Really terrible, I mean.”

I did a little frown.

That was not a compliment, possibly.

Herb patted my arm. “Don't worry. We still like you,” he said. “Just don't copy May's homework anymore. And then you won't get in any more trouble.”

I nodded my head.

Then I patted him back.

That Herb is good for me, I think.
