The babies are now 4 months old. Today is Emilys first day back. She instead of teaching science is going to be the PE teacher and after school swim coach for the swim team.
"Are you nervous?" I ask with an arched eyebrow.
"Nope, today is going to be great. And I know my mom is going to be great with the twins." She says as she reassures me by sliding her hands down my arms softly holding onto my hands, trying to calm the nerves that I've been trying desperately to cover up.
"Okay, you get home later than I do so I'll be home with the girls by 4:00pm. Today is when I catch up on grading. How long does practice run?" I ask.
"Until 4:30pm. You could wait with me as I coach. You'd have to pick me up anyway." She says.
"Okay. I'll stay with you." I say and peck her lips.
I walk over to the babies and put small kisses on each of their heads before turning to Pam.
"Thank you for watching them. Love you Pam." I say as I pull her into a hug.
"Love you too Ali." Pam says as we break the hug.
Then Emily and Pam say their goodbyes as I spend the next few minutes making sure the babies are okay before I go. I can definitely tell that I'm the more protective mother of us both...
"Are you ready?" Emily asks.
"Yeah, just making sure they're fine." I say.
"They'll Be Okay." Emily reassures me.
"Can I call you? Like every few hours?" I ask Pam.
"Yes Ali, you forget that I've done this before." Pam says.
"I know, I just want to make sure they'll be okay." I say.
"They will be fine. Now go before you're late for school!" Pam playfully scolds while pointing at the door.
"Okay, okay." Emily says and grabs my hand.
"Hold on." I say and walk over to the twins who are playing with the toys hanging from the mobiles on their swings.
"Hey guys, mommy has to go to work today, so you are going to be staying with Grandma Pam. Be good for her okay? I'll be back home before you know it. Mommy loves you." I say softly as I kiss both of them goodbye.
"Mama loves you too." Emily says as she kisses their little foreheads.
I look at them one less time before walking out of the house towards the car.
Emily and I get in and we go off to school.
I teach my first class and the boys are still immature. They keep making comments about me. About my ass. About my looks. How they wanna 'pull my hair as I scream their name.' Oh hell no. Like stop, I'm taken. Hence 'Mrs.'
I was sitting at my desk and Brandon, one of my more troublesome students calls my name.
"Mrs.DiLaurentis." He says.
"Yeah." I say as I look up from grading my papers.
"What are you doing?" She asks.
This question confuses me.
"Grading papers...?" I say and it come out as more of a question.
"Oh, I thought you were doing me." He says confidently, his friends snicker behind him.
"Are you quite done?" I snap, not many people have seen the snappy side of me.
He just looks back down at the paper I gave him. That's what I thought.
I won.
Finally, school is over and it's around 4:00pm. I make my way to the pool room. I see Emily in the pool along with all of her little swimmers in training.
"Hey Ali." Emily says.
"Hi, Mrs.DiLaurentis." A ton of students say.
"Hi girls." I say while I smile lightly and wave and put my bag on Emilys desk in her office.
"Ali, you should come in!" Emily says.
"Em, you know I am not a very good swimmer." I say trying not to go into the pool.
"Come on Ali. I'll help you." Emily says.
"I don't have a swimsuit." I say.
"I always come prepared." Emily says.
"What do you mean?" I ask.
"Remember going to Hanna's, you had me put your bikini in my swim bag and never wore it and I never took it out." She says.
I just sigh and head off to the locker room to change.
Once I'm in the locker room
After I changed, I walked out and some of the boys were out of their locker rooms. A few boys did cat calls and Emily rolled her eyes. So did I. Don't they know I'm not interested, jeez.
"Enough boys." I say and I get slowly get into the pool. Adjusting to the temperature.
"Need time to adjust Ali?" Brandon asks smugly.
"That's enough." Emily says with a bit of annoyance to her voice.
"Thanks em." I whisper into her ear once I get by her.
Emily just smiled at me and turned back to our students.
"Today, we will be having a free day, feel free to do what you want in the pool today." Emily says.
"What're you going em? You have that big meet in 4 days!" I say.
"Relax babe, we will be working really hard tomorrow." She says.
"Well I hope you guys do good." I say to her.
Just then, tons of water flies all over us.
I'm soaked. A surprised look on my face.
"Oops. I just wanted to get you wet." Brandon says.
The nerve.
"Brandon! I swear if I wasn't your teacher, you'd be in a world of pain!" I said scolding him.
"You don't want to be in her way when she's mad. She once blinded someone." Emily says.
"EMILY!!" I shriek.
"Oh my god. I'm so sorry Ali." Emily says.
"Whatever em. We'll talk about this later." I say.
"Okay." She says then hugs me.
"Just so you know, you look so fucking hot." She whispers in my ear.
I can't help but blush and squeeze my legs together.
