Right as Dustin laid down his pencil just as the teacher called on him. He'd been so busy writing in his journal and thinking about Alex and Mr. Tim he didn't hear the teachers question. Let's alone not even recognize her at all. She had high cheek bones, with a warming smile, beautiful hazel eyes and curly blood red hair. She was wearing a black skirt with a pretty red shirt that matched the color of her high heels. "Uh yes ma'am?" Dustin said weakly, his cheeks flushing with embarrassment as the class snickered at him. "What's your name?" The new teacher asked again her large eyes staring at him. "Dustin." He said almost as if it were a question. To his great thanks she didn't seem to notice. Either if she did she was really good at hiding it. "Anyways! Hello children! I'm going to be your new teacher for this year! I'm Mrs. Lilly Isaac but Lilly will do just fine." She introduced herself bowing slightly.

The kids giggles at her funny introduction. Dustin almost fainted once he hear the last name because the realization hit him so hard. Isaac? As in like Mr. Timothy Isaac? Could they be related or was he just over reacting? Whatever the reason it made him queasy and uncertain. Dustin squirmed in his seat trying to find a conformable position, which already seemed impossible. "Alrighty kids, pop quiz! No peeking or you're done for good!" She smiled warmly, it seemed to heat up the entire room. Some familiar glint flashed in her eyes only for a few seconds. Mrs. Lilly handed out the test heading back to her over the top clean desk.

Dustin never saw such a neat desk in his life. "Sir Dustin, could you come here?" Tapping her pencil on her desk in a slow rhythm, she had her eyes fixed on him. All eyes were on him as he grabbed his test and sketchbook and brought it with up to her desk. "Yes Mrs. Lilly?" He mumbled. "Don't be embarrassed, your not in trouble," she chuckled, "Just between us I've heard a lot about you child." Dustin gulped his eyes shrinking. How did she know him? What did she know about him? Was there rumors about him? His head couldn't stop swimming with all the possible ideas. "You may not know me, but I bet you know my husband." Mrs. Lilly definitely had that trouble maker gleam in her hazel eyes. "I-is it Mr. T-Tim?" The room seem to drop ten degrees at the mention of his name. "Yes that's him. My are you ok? You don't seem well." Her smile turned to a bit of panicked worry. "Yeah.... I'm... Fine." Dustin's mind couldn't precess any faster or anymore. It went into overdrive which meant he ended up fainting. The class started to panic, the last thing he heard was Mrs. Lilly saying "oh poor sweet child..." Before everything went dark.
