The Cute Fedora Boy

[Pete's POV]
I couldn't get him out of my mind! Damnit Pete, you have a girlfriend! I thought to myself. Plus he's too young. He probably doesn't like you back anyways. I opened the door to my classroom and switched the light on, considering it was pitch black and I could barely see anything, even if I were to put my hand up to my face.

I made my way through the clusters of desks and placed my things, a binder and some books. It was already a mess. It was covered in papers, pens or pencils, and other random objects that probably weren't necessary for a teacher to have on their desk.

Funny thing was, I hadn't even taught my first class yet, I mean I had been teaching for five years, but I meant at this school. I had just come on Saturday to get stuff dropped off, obviously I had a lot of things.

The students had already been in school for about a month or so, but after one of the English teachers quit, they called me in.

Ugh! I couldn't get that boy from this morning out of my head! Patrick his name was. So cute. He wore a little black fedora and black rimmed glasses, what a cute little tike.

Just then, someone burst into my room. "Pete!" It was Gererd. I smiled, it was nice to see a familiar face. See Gerard and I had both taught at a different school, Bamber Creek Highschool, before this. He was the choir instructor and I was the band teacher. Since our rooms were so close, we'd always talk and hang out between periods. We'd even take lunch breaks together sometimes, that was fun.

He had been an assistant principal at a different school before this one though, so when we were both offered a job here, we knew we had to take it. Also, Frank worked here. So why not?

"Gee!" I exclaimed, walking over to him while we both had our arms out. We hugged and then broke apart. "How's Frank?" I asked, Gerard's face lightened up. "He's great! The marriage is in April by the way, just in case you were wondering." Oh yeah! Did I mention Gerard and Frank are engaged? Sorry.

Frank had proposed in March, it was now October. I was one of the first people they told, that made me feel special. "Ah!" I said smiling. "I'm so excited for you dude. Hope it turns out great!" Gerard smiled and looked around my room. "Your walls are kinda boring man, maybe put some posters up?" He suggested, I shrugged. When I worked as a band teacher I had band posters up, but now that I was an English teacher, I wasn't one hundred percent sure I could do that.

"Are you sure?" I asked. "What if I'm not allowed to." Gerard shrugged. "Fuck do I care, I'm the principle. You can if you want, I can help you put them up." I smiled, Gerard is awesome. I glanced at the clock and realized it was almost when my hour began! Crap!

"Hey, Gee," I said, Gerard turned back to face me since he had been staring at the wall probably mentally arranging which posters would go where. "Yeah?" He asked. "My hour's about to start, so you kinda need to go, but we're still on for lunch?" I asked, Gerard nodded. "Most definitely." I grinned. "Great. I have something I wanna discuss with you." Gerard agreed to meet me for lunch and he then left.

I straightened out some stuff quickly just as the belle rang. The students began to file in, and right there, in the back was him. The cute fedora boy.
