As we wandered into a big classroom labelled ‘Room 37’, the few people there looked up.
Eric led me over to a window seat, without introducing me to anyone, but I smiled if anybody looked my way.
Then the teacher walked in, Mr. Burns. He was a man in his late thirties with dirty blonde hair and it was in a slight quiff. He had neat facial hair, and dressed in a dark blue button up, blue jeans and black shoes.
“Ah, you must be the new student,” he said, pointing a finger at me, smiling.
He has a British accent- fuck yeah!
I nodded shyly.
“What’s your name, sweetheart?”
“Katelyn. Katelyn McQuaid,” I replied.
“Well it’s nice to meet you. I’m Mr. Burns and I am the photography teacher here at Sagan High. May I ask, what sort of photos do you prefer to capture?”
Oh, I remembered this from my file; “Erm, people in natural positions. So really I take pictures of people when they can’t see me so they don’t pose or anything and I can capture them in their element,” I explained.
“I like it, but why do you?” asked Mr Burns.
“I don’t like people being fake. I like people being who they are,” I answered, making him smile.
“Well, Katelyn, you’re already a hit with me.”
I smiled... maybe this wouldn’t be so bad after all.
Some time in second period, Eric disappeared, and Mr Burns explained it was to do the school newspaper.
Then he gave us an assignment; we were to form a portfolio on a subject of our choice and show that we had used different techniques when using the camera and photo editors.
I was up for this challenge- I had a kick-ass camera (it has a stand and everything) and I loved my preferred photo editor... now I just had to pick a subject.
Then I looked across to the door, to see Greg at the little window. When he knew that I’d seen him, he beckoned me frantically.
I stood up (not that anyone noticed because they were all stood up for their assignments and everything), and hurried over to Mr. Burn’s desk.
“Can I go to the toilet, please?” I asked lowly, and he smiled, writing me out a slip and pointing me in the right direction.
