Autumn

Of course it's Sunday and there's church. I feel so lazy to get up and yes Ashton will be there, great I sighed. I hope he's bringing the colour pencils for the kids.

Me and mom took the bus and we got there. Shit! I have to go for confessions, ya know? Cause I had sex with Mr. Gordon Clifford. Wow! that name is just amazeballs it just sounds so heavenly. Why the hell am I talking to my mind it's just weird.

I went inside church and I sat behind, usually the front is where I would be sat.

"Hey Autumn I thought you always sat in front during my mass" the cheery smiley priest said.

Ohhhh what have I become, I just smiled awkwardly back at him since I didn't know how to reply.

After mass finished, I decided to go into the confessional room. Luckily my face is hidden.

"Good morning father" I said and he replied

I put the sign of the cross and I said

"bless me father for I have sin here are my sins, I had sex before marriage???" I said awkwardly.

Then he recites a prayer and later I had to respond

"Oh my god, I am truly sorry for I have sinned against you because you are so good with ur help I should not sin again"

"It's okay dear, God forgives everyone and he will still love you for what you've done" the priest said nicely.

"For your penance, I want you to pray 1 decade of the rosary" he continued.

Oh my gosh, that is so long. I went to a seat and I said my penance.

After that I went for breakfast alone because I couldn't find Ashton. After breakfast I went to the Sunday school class and waited for the students to arrive. There was full attendance and Ashton hasn't arrive or maybe I had to take care of them by myself.

"Okay guys I don't know where teacher Ashton is but let's get started. Oh wait I don't have colour pencils so let's sing" .

"Everyone gather in a circle, I want you to hold each others hand when I say let go you all let go okay?"

"Yes, miss Autumn" the voices of the little children echoed the room.

"Okay, today we are going to sing the song called 'I'm a little teapot' yall heard of it right???" And all those little heads nodded.

I started teaching them the dance moves and the door swings opens by a foot and Ashton appeared with someone holding a box of colour pencils.

They both sat behind me while I taught the kids. As I was dancing and singing with the kids a familiar chuckle was let out.

I turned behind to see Luke slouching on the chair with his arms folded biting his lip with a smirk on his face. Ughhh!!! That guy makes me so mad.

I rolled my eyes at him then turn back in front to face the kids.

Luke approaches the circle and he stand opposite me holding the children's hand.

"Hi kids, I'm luke I'll be joining you today" he said.

"You're so tall" Aaron said looking up to Luke.

"Giant" little Emma said giggling.

I couldn't help but to burst out laughing so hard and all the kids laughed too and Luke gave me the "Seriously??? Look' .

As I was singing with the kids I couldn't help but to notice Luke scanning me top to bottom and it gave me a weird feeling, it felt like he was piercing my insides.
