I walked out of the room to go to the teachers lounge and talk to people and eat me apple. Slowly I walked around the corner where you could see the lunch room also know as the commons. There at a table on the very last row near the hall way I was walking down was Riley. She sat with three other people. Two of them were in one of my other hours but one of them was in third block with Riley.
Her name was I think Adrienne and she hung out with that one kid Octopus or some shit like that all the time during class. That kid was trouble and weird like Ross Nagienfind weird. I slowed my pace even more to catch the small lucky sighting I had of her. Soon I had come to a stop and just stud there in the hall way with an apple in my hand. She looked over at me smiled then waved.
I came back to planet earth and waved back then continued to walk. She turned back around as a girl in blonde long hair gave an all so irritating look towards her. She moved her eye brows up in down in the manner of "He like you" or "oh you like him" and it kind of made me mad.
I don't know why though because I normally just ignore that kind of shit. It's mainly just people who roll their eyes I get mad at or that tease and bully people. It's just so stupid how kids act this days but something inside of me said Riley was different. I couldn't stand in the middle of the hall way and stare at her to find out though. I would have to get to know her better somehow.
I walked out of sight from the commons and started to walk faster towards the teachers lounge. I turned the corner and soon enough came up to the lounge opened the door and walked in. There in the room was Carry Renfro the gym teacher, Keith Glotzbach the eight grade math and algebra teacher, Edward Precopy the computer applications teacher, then who I really hoped to not see. Ross Nagienfind was in the room.
I sighed and walked over to the little table in the corner that held the coffee maker and stuff to fix your coffee. I took a cup placed it on the table and started to poor coffee in.
"HEY THERE ROBBIE" said someone behind me as they slammed their hand harshly down on my shoulders and spilling the coffee all over the table.
I turned around then noticed it was Ross.
"Hey sorry about that buddy!" He said.
I nodded turned back around and cleaned up the mess.
"Ya know we have a German trade student this year!" He said as if I didn't already know.
"Yeah I know she's in my third block!" I commented.
I finished cleaning and started to poor another cup of coffee.
"Ya know you seem a little tense around her!" He said with an evil tone.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
He chuckled and said " well I say ya over in the hall way staring at her and ya looked out of it and tense!" He answered.
I put in my normal three packages of coffee and some milk stirred it then sat down.
"Really now!" I said in disbelief.
He made a plain face and nodded.
"I have to go thanks for spilling my coffee and the little strange conversation there Ross" I said then started to walk back out of the room with my coffee.
"Any time Robbie!" He said like he was dumb or something and not even noticing he had pissed me off.
I closed the door behind me and walked back across the commons. Again I looked towards Riley as she had her earbuds in listening to music. I didn't hesitate this time and actually kept walking to my room. I turned the corner and then to my door. I looked at the name tag near the door as it read "Room 141 McDowell". I opened the door and walked in.
Ms.Kiamco came up to me and joked around.
"Hey Mr.McDowell where's my coffee!" She said.
I took a sip and said "We'll let's see its not way back since last year when we were both new teacher and I got you your coffee so I didn't get it!" I said as she smiled and laughed.
"Mr.McDowell" she said as she continued to laugh and patted me on the back.
"Your so funny!" She commented.
She walked back the her desk in the upper right left hand corner of the room. I looked at my desk sitting in the lower right side of the room and again sighed. I sat down and at a few banana chips and relaxed. Soon the student came back into the room and stud around and talked while waiting for the bell to ring for their next class.
I looked over at Riley as I saw she wasn't up and talking but sitting down in her desk quietly listening to music. I got up and walked over to her. I sat in the desk next to her as she watched me.
"Hey what are you listening to?" I asked.
She took out an earbud and said "It a German song called Komm in meinen schlaf by subway to Sally" she answered.
I nodded as she handed me an earbud as it played the song. I listened as the lyrics made no sense because they were in German but the song itself was pretty cool.
The bell rang and everyone got exited and knocked the desks all out of order into a big mess. Some side ways and other facing completely backwards. I gave her the earbud as she shut off the music and rapped up her earbuds then put it in her pocket.
I got up to as she started walking and left her stuff. She went over to the unordered desks and started straightening them out.
"You do that to!" I asked.
"Yep I hate unordered desks. Everyone always pushes them around and they look like a mess but I always fix them" she answered.
I smiled and started to help her.
A minute later their was only one desk left to straighten so walked over to it and reached out to grab it. I put my hand on not the desk but another hand. I looked over to where the hand came from and it was Riley.
She blushed then I took my hand off hers then she straightened the desk. She walked over to her stuff picked it up then walked to the door.
"Bye Mr.McDowell" she said.
I looked at her then said "bye" to her then she left the room.
I looked at my hand where I had touched hers and flashed back. Then smiled.
