Me, My Teacher and Lies

Chapter 4

Lucas'  P.O.V. 

Walking through school halls is a lot like driving in crazy ass traffic mixed in with bumper cars people are violent, but to be honest I’d rather be pushed then get stuck behind idiots who stop to talk right in the middle of  the walkway I mean come on who does that? Being a teacher now though I don’t get pushed and if I did I’d shake the hand of the kid who did it for having guts and then give them their pink slip no one pushes me and gets away with it I mean come on.

“Mr Greyson”? I turned around in the corridor and gave a forced smile to one of my many female admirers notice I don’t say student because even some of the staff are starting to creep me out seriously I’m going to have to start smuggling in my hockey stick to beat them back with, yes I do sound full of myself and yes I can be but it’s true and it’s really starting to bug me.

“Yes Sarah what can I do for you this morning”? She blushed and bit her lip I think she was trying to be seductive but it sure as hell isn't working.

“Uh I was wondering about the homework you gave us yesterday I’m having trouble with it could you maybe go over it again with me after school”?

“I’m really sorry but I’ve got detentions to take care of after school” thank God and with a student who doesn’t seem taken with me in the least in fact after yesterday I kind of get the impression I piss her off.

“What about at lunch”? Oh shit I don’t have an excuse this time and I am a teacher if she wasn’t making googly eyes at me I wouldn’t mind at all but I kind of feel a little violated right now with the way she’s staring at me.

“Sure yeah I can do that” I smiled trying to be friendly maybe that’s my problem I’m too damn nice, but I’m new I can’t be an asshole.

“Thanks a lot Mr Greyson” I nodded with a smile and turned on my heel starting off again through the crowd of students and spotted my one and only detention server looking through her locker, Claire. Out of all my students including some of the guys worryingly she seems the less effected by me not that I should care – or that I do – I remember the first time I saw her in class I did a double take she’s gorgeous I mean really, long brown hair to her waist thick and shiny makes a guy want to know what it would feel like to run his fingers through it you know? Big beautiful brown eyes not like bug eye big they remind me of cats eyes in the shape department curvy and defined, sleek, a little button nose cute really and small but full lips. I’m guessing here because I’m really tall but I think she’s smaller than usual – what the hell am I doing? Am I checking her out? No way I just need a coffee to wake myself up living with my younger idiot brother has downsides like him blaring his stupid music till two in the morning what a jack ass you’d think when your brother took you in you’d be on best behaviour doing the washing up paying rent keep the place clean but apparently not. I decided to go over to her to make sure she remembered her detention I stopped behind her while she was still busy in her locker.

“Miss James”? She stopped completely freezing then turned around and looked up at me without any emotion at all like she was bored.

“Yes Sir”?

“Just making sure you haven’t forgotten your detention after school today”.

“Well since it’s the first time in my life I’ve ever gotten one it’s not easy to forget”. Oh my God I’d given her first ever detention? On my first day geez that’s harsh... maybe I should let her off I wasn’t even going to punish her originally I just wanted to know why she’d spent time writing two perfectly articulated papers to let someone else pass it off as theirs, she’s just interesting.

“Your first detention”?

“That’s what I said” I raised an eyebrow at the attitude but actually it makes me want to laugh but I’m a teacher I’m supposed to be serious. “Sorry that was rude”.
