Chapter one: Private Lives REBOOT!

Helllloooo. This is a Rewrite/reboot of my story "Private Lives" I wanted to make more clear the obstacles that Ichabod and Abbie face keeping them from admitting their love to another. And resulting in a secret affair. So this is the beginning of the story. I hope you like it. And I hope it makes more sense. I am really excited about this reboot. Lol All characters herein do not belong to me. They all belong to FOX NETWORK. I am just borrowing them for a little while. Lol All critiques and reviews are welcome and should be addressed to the author below the title. Lol. Good or bad.

Dean Ichabod Crane sat behind his desk in his large leather chair. His best friend Daniel Mills with his

baby sister Jennifer Mills and Professor Mary Wells sat around his desk in his office. All four listened as Jennifer Mill continued to talk about her older sister Grace Abigail Mills.

"She was a really cute kid."Remember Ichabod?" Jenny said.

Ichabod shakes his head. He vaguely remembers the second Mills child.

Daniel nods his head.

"Of course you do. She was short, with braces, her hair all tight curls?"Jenny said.

"Oh, yes, right."

Ichabod nods. He remembered the little girl, Abbie. She was thirteen years old and he was a freshman in College.

"She always wanted to tag along with us," Ichabod answers.

"Right. But of course she couldn't because you and Daniel were going to frat parties in College. I  always thought Abbie

had a crush on you, Icky." Daniel frowned. Ichabod twisted his lips and nodded.

"Yes, she was a pest!"

Ichabod answered. He sat back in his black leather seat and steepled his long fingers underneath his bearded chin.

"Yes, she will be working with Professor Wells at the library archives this summer. Starting this  Monday And teaching in the Fall. I am looking forward to seeing her, again," Ichabod answered.

"Are you now?" Jenny said. Her Eyes lit up as a a smile played on her lips. Jenny slides her eyes to look at her brother.

Daniel frowned at Jenny. Jenny lifts her eyebrow. Daniel looks at Jenny and Wonders about that wicked gleam in her

eye is all about?

"Well, she has changed, Ichabod," Jenny said.

Ichabod lowers his eyebrows and tilts his head waiting for Jenny to explain.

"Changed how, Jennifer? Is she bald with glasses and a scar?"  Ichabod chuckled. A small smile on his full lips.

"No, it is much worst,"Jenny answered.

There is silence in the room all eyes on Jennifer Mills waiting for her to continue. She had a captive audience.

"Well, you wouldn't recognize her now. She still wears glasses and her hair is in short curly unruly knots," Jenny

answered. Her pretty face scrunched into a nasty look.

"There is nothing wrong with a woman wearing glasses, Jennifer," Dean Crane answered. He folded his large hands on his desk and sat forward.

"Yes but, she wears the horrible bottle cap glasses,"Jenny said.

Ichabod shakes his head.

She was employed in this University to teach not to win a beauty contest, Jennifer," Ichabod answered. He stared at Jenny.
