     Lord, please just make these idiots shut up, I thought rubbing the sides of my temples because I had a headache.
     "What's wrong?" Britt asked, looking concerned.
     "Headache.." I simply said,  scowling at the 8th graders.
     "Hey!" He shouted at them, trying to calm them down, but didn't work, "8th Grade! Quiet down! Lexi has a headache!"
     "Thank you.." I whispered, smiling softly.
      " Do you have any medicine in the office or anything?" He asked, smiling lovingly towards me.
      "Yeah," I whispered, biting my lip.
      "I'll go grab some," he said getting up, "Do you want something to drink?"
     "Sure," I replied, grabbing his laptop and started looking through his photos.
    "Dr.Pepper?" He asked smiling widely.
    "How'd you know?" I asked returning the warm smile.
   "I have my sources," he winked,"Okay, 8th grade! Be quiet and study your notes until I get back! You have a quiz coming up!"
     He left the room and went to the office.
     In his photos on his laptop, I saw cute photos of Britt and his son, throwing footballs and baseballs and fishing.
    ....I didn't think Britt fished ,but okay.
     His son was so cute, he had Britt's puppy brown eyes and his cute nose.
   I heard the classroom door open and Britt stepped inside. Apparently he saw I was looking through his photos, because he raised his eyebrows and smiled , "I see you've found my son. His name is Bryn, by the way. He's two."
     "Ah," I said ,"Hey, Britt. Uhh, wait Coach Melton, thanks for the drink and well..everything."
    "Don't mention it. And its okay to call me Britt in front of them."
