It was the time.
The time when people (women) suffer most.
It was Bev's periods.
Bev couldn't move when she got them. She just laid in bed and listened to Niall who was laying with her. Her eyes were closed and she listened to Niall and his lovable accent.
She skipped school. So did Niall. She had a good reason, she said when Niall insisted on staying alone. So did he, apparently, as he appeared to be next to her.
