I spot Stephen disappearing into the bushes near his house. I've seen him and Keith hiding there, watching me. At first, i thought it was sweet of them, having fun, playing spies. I suspect they might have took it too far now. They might stumble upon things that i'd prefer to be left alone. I must put a stop it. Now.I go into the house and place two chocolate digestive biscuits that i bought from Paradise on Wednesday, onto a plate, one of the older ones of course, and head for the door."Where are you going now?" Called Ted form the garage.I sighed, straighted the hem of my skirt, and adjusted my hair.I take a deep breath and open the side door to the garage."I'm just popping to Dee's, Darling." I lied."I thought you just came back from there?" He said quizzically, barely looking up from is cricket bat. He was oiling it. Again.I froze."Well, she's forgotten to put eggs on the shopping list, you know what she's like, so I thought she could have some of ours, as we have some extra?" I felt rotten for blaming Dee."Typical" he grunted.I took that as my cue to exit, and left.Gemma A. :)
Sorry Gemma... your paragraphing disappeared when I copied and pasted.

I like your use of verbs Gemma. They suggest character very clearly (e.g. "lied" and "grunted")
