One cloudy afternoon, Henry found himself on an aimless walk, trying to distract himself from the confusing swirl of emotions that Rebel Rachel seemed to have stirred within him. The more he denied it, the stronger the feelings grew.
As he strolled down the street, he suddenly heard the unmistakable sounds of loud rock music blaring from Rachel's house. The rebellious melody drew him in like a magnet. Unable to resist, Henry decided to investigate.
Peeking through Rachel's window, he was greeted by a sight that both amazed and perplexed him. There she was – Rebel Rachel, jumping on her bed, playing air guitar, and belting out a song that echoed through the neighborhood.
"I'm a heart stomper
Stompin' on hearts
If you wanna get away
You're gonna need a head start!
I can keep this up forever
If you're trying to feel better
Take it up with someone else
You can call it too cut-throat
I'll stomp a heart like a roach
I'm just lookin' out for myself!
I'm a heartbreaker
Breakin' those hearts
You can tell me that's not me
But I'm perfect for the part!
I can keep this up forever
If you're trying to feel better
Take it up with someone else
You can call it too cut-throat
I'll stomp a heart like a roach
I'm just lookin' out for myself!"
Henry couldn't help but be in awe of Rachel's rockstar performance. The raw energy, the rebellious spirit – it was undeniably awesome. But as the lyrics sank in, a realization hit him like a ton of bricks.
I can keep this up forever
If you're trying to feel better
Take it up with someone else
You can call it too cut-throat
I'll stomp a heart like a roach
I'm just lookin' out for myself
I'm a heart stomper!
The lyrics painted a picture of a heart-stomping rebel, unapologetically guarding her own emotions. Henry, while captivated by the performance, couldn't help but wonder if his affection for Rachel would end up beneath her sneakers.
A mix of admiration and a twinge of sadness lingered in Henry's heart. He had hoped that his feelings for Rachel would find a place in her rebellious world, but now he questioned if it was a love that might be stomped out.
As the music continued to echo, Henry sighed and returned home, contemplating the complexities of emotions and the unpredictability of a rebellious heart. Little did he know that the mischievous journey of love and friendship at Ashdown Primary still had surprises in store, and Rebel Rachel's heart, like her lyrics, was a puzzle yet to be solved.
