Chapter 7

Rock the Stadium

By July the school exams were over. Lucas was ecstatic.

On the final day at school Lucas, Tom, Louis and Grace walked home, their school uniform dishevelled, singing Alice Cooper’s ‘School’s Out’ at the top of their voices - especially emphasising the lyrics ‘FOR EVER!’

Lucas thought he had done OK in his exams, but all thoughts were now on enjoying the summer before perhaps going on to college.

When Lucas reached home, as always, he shouted for Cuch - and he came running to greet him at the front door.

His good mood dissipated when he saw his mum’s face.

“What’s up?” he said.

“That reporter’s been round here again,” she said, clearly rattled.

He stood in our hallway with his stupid floppy haircut and shiny brown shoes telling ME how cruel we are to Cuch for letting him go to rock nights.”

“What?” Lucas said. “How are we cruel? He loves it.”

“He reckons people are saying it’s bad for the dog’s ears, that he shouldn’t be allowed to go - and that he’s going to do a stupid story about it,” Janine said, pacing and slamming things down in the kitchen as she said it.

“Perhaps we shouldn’t go this Saturday,” Lucas suggested.

“We’ll see. Let’s see what goes in the paper tomorrow,” Janine said.

It wasn’t good.

Cuch was front page news again - but this time it was not good publicity.

ROCK GIG LOUD - NO DOGS ALLOWED by Alan Greyman shouted the headline.
