Morality - Theft ... a deal

A deal's a deal...
Author: Ann Hutchinson

 

"Is it a deal?"

"Yep."

That's how it started. Three mars bars, a David Beckham sticker , and a snog with Judith Barrett. Bargain really, all things considered. I mean, Judith's not all that pretty - Gaz says she looks like she's been beaten with the ugly stick - but she ain't all that fussy neither and I need a snog. Jason's been telling people I'm a saddo, y'see, and I don't really know what that means, but Gaz says a snog should sort it out. Anyway, if she tastes really bad I can just ‘ave a mars bar, can't I? I mean, it's not like we're gonna get married or nothin', is it?

 

So anyway, all I gotta do is nick the PE cupboard keys off Mr. P - he's my form tutor - and give them to Dwaine - he's in year 10. I suppose it's stealin', really, which gran says is a sin, or something, but it's in a good cause, so I reckon God'll be OK about it. He'd do it too if Jason said He was a saddo. It's not like I'm gonna murder someone or anything - I ain't even gonna steal nothin'. Gaz's brother says its just aidin' and abettin', which means the pigs can't do you. Anyway, I gotta do it now, ain't I? I made the deal, I can't go back on that. That'd be wrong.
