Invisible Heros

Tyler: Lunchtime Laughter

" Well, that's the end of the tour I have to give on the top floor. I have other business to attend to, so Mrs. Bustier will take you on the rest o the tour." The Principal said as he walked back towards what I just learned was his office.

Then the red headed teacher turned towards me with a hand covering her mouth like she was a teenager going to tell some secret. 

" Glad he's gone, he tends to be a bit of a bummer am I right?" 

" What did you say Mrs. Bustier?" He asked turning around one of his bushy brows arched in confusion. 

" Nothing, Mr. Damocles, sir." She replied winking to me. Then he closed the door to his office while I managed to hold back a snicker.

" I bet you'd like a snack since its lunch time. We can go head down to the lunch ro-" 

" RACE!!!" Voices echoed out of nowhere cutting her off. She walked over to the banister and peered over the edge I walked alongside her to see 4 kids running down the hallway like little kids on a playground.

She laughed and started to walk down the stairs so I followed. 

" Um, excuse me, but who where they? And why are they running around the school?" She kept walking. It seemed to me like we were behind those children, but they didn't seem to sound like kids from the echoes of laughter bouncing off the walls like their owners.

" You must excuse their behavior. I told them to be on their best behavior but there's no getting through to those few." She paused as we turned around a corner, " Although, you must admire there child like enthusiasm for everything." Confused I voiced "I'm not sure I understand what you mean."

We heard doors slam shut and then proceeded to go through them ourselves. 

" Please excuse me a minute." She said power walking over to a group of students. She talked to them, but it was more like motherly repercussion so I mangled to hear what she said.

" I told you all to be in your best behavior today.  Now, please calm down a bit and I would appreciate it if you'd come over and introduce yourselves." She finished and the group of four followed behind all of them coming towards me. Okay, yeah, you handle crowds of fans all the time. Future classmates will be a piece of cake!

As they approached I noticed one of the red headed girls looked familiar but it was hard to tell cause her hair was a complete mess. Wait,...1,2,3, and 4 if I count the teacher that's a LOT of redheads in one place! How is there so many?

" Kids, this is Tyler. Tyler, these are the noise making children we heard on our way here." Mrs. Bustier said; the other kids waved shyly with pink faces.  

" Now, now don't tell me your all shy after all that goofing around!" She scolded, but judging by the grin on her face she was reason them.

" Uh, sorry about the noise. My names Nathaniel and you've already met my mother, Mrs. Bustier." Nathaniel said extending his hand I gladly took it and shook it. 

" This is my friend Chloe. And these two are my cousins Sabrina and Eliza." He continued introducing the girls like a true gentleman, something my mother says all me should always strive to be. And I do especially after what my moms been through.

" Go on I can find a table large enough or make one which ever will work." Nathaniel shrugged, heading off to go find us all a table. The familiar looking red headed girl stayed I front of me with the other girls while I walked behind with Nathaniel's mom. Wow, that must have been awkward for him to say.
