Chapter 1
‘My God, my ears.’ The person in the corridor outside their hotel room was
cracking up. ‘What’s that horrible noise?’
Didi, wearing only a bath towel, pulled a face at the closed door and
shouted back defiantly, ‘It’s called singing.’ Honestly, here they were in
Venice, one of the most miraculous cities on the planet, and there always had
to be one comedian trying to bring you down.
‘You can call it singing,’ her critic observed. ‘Some might call it
caterwauling.’
They heard the sound of his footsteps fade as he clattered up the rickety
staircase to the boys’ rooms on the top floor.
Didi said, ‘Shay Mason thinks he’s so hilarious.’
‘You were a bit out of tune,’ Layla told her.
‘To be fair.’
Layla was always fair; it was really annoying.
‘I don’t know why you invited him. He doesn’t even go to our school.’
Well, she could hazard a guess. As Layla carefully applied a second coat of
turquoise mascara, Didi met her friend’s gaze in the age-spotted antique
mirror and raised an eyebrow.
‘Don’t go giving me one of your looks,’ said Layla. ‘He’s been kind to me,
that’s all. I told you about the time those other boys were taking the mickey,
and he stopped them doing it. I don’t fancy him.’
‘Not even a bit?’
‘No!’
‘OK, I believe you, thousands wouldn’t.’ Didi broke into a playful grin and
turned up the radio as her favourite Elton John track began to play. ‘I only
asked.’ Grabbing her hairbrush and holding it like a microphone, she sang
off-key at the top of her voice, ‘I’M STILL STANDING, YEAH YEAH
YEAH.’
‘He’ll be able to hear that.’ Layla pointed at the ceiling.
‘Oh I’m counting on it,’ said Didi.
